I am a screen refreshed...
So after chatting with Bev about things lately, and her wanting to know everything that's going on with Chloe, she was able to convince me to start posting my journal entries that I was keeping private onto my blog. That way, I can also post and write all I want about her, without inundating everyone's facebook pages with random things that Chloe is now doing, or how she pooped today, or laughed for a minute at nothing, he he he. So we should probably start at the very beginning...I'm probably gonna skip some entries from the beginning and just move forward, but I'll try to include all the milestones...they are written in a form of a letter to her, for purposes later to be determined, possibly compile them all and give them to her or something, I don't know. We'll just see where it goes. I guess enjoy, if you're reading along =)

July 02, 2012
Today, you came into the world, crying, screaming, bloody and cone-headed...but absolutely, amazingly, by all of God's graces, perfect and beautiful. Your mom and I couldn't have been happier. I have to admit that the entire experience wasn't exactly what they show in the movies or on TV, but it had it's own special-ness to it. It was surreal, overwhelming, exciting, exhausting intense, and amazing all at the same time, but I wouldn't have traded anything in the world to experience it. After 36 weeks and 3 days, you decided that your mommy's belly had served it's time for your first and home you then decided to come a little early! I gotta admit, it was very unexpected for you to come so early, but because you did, I actually got an extra week off of work for it! We loved you before you ever even came into the world officially, and seeing your face for the first time, we loved you even more than you could have possibly ever known.
So that was my first post when she was first born...very short, and to the point. Remember, both Tinz and I were on VERY little sleep at that point and writing was not really the very first thing on my mind.
So I guess I'll include an old post for now, unless there is a new thing that happens...probably pictures mostly and maybe some additional things going on in my life. Maybe previous posts that I didn't put up too.
