Introducing Us

I finally caved and switched my blog from Xanga (which I had yet to even make a post on there this year) to Blogger.

Just a few things you should know...I'm not very good with continuous, regular updates. I'm better friends with spontaneity for sure. And I know I overuse "..." and I use "..." when it's completely not grammatically correct. But you'll have to get used to it. It's my favorite thing to type... (see!) as if I'm composing my thoughts for a moment before speaking. Yes, that's it...

With Jack's first birthday fast approaching (2 weeks from today!) I am going to start documenting his little life here. And occasionally I will try to mention my husband Rob and me too if I remember. But primarily it's about Jack. After all he is what my life is mostly centered on now. (I say mostly b/c I do have a life outside of him though it be relatively boring in comparison.)

Well, in short (if you're new to me) I'm a stay at home mom that used to be a makeup artist for a major cosmetics company and I was also an interior designer. Aside from Jack, I now enjoy my hobby of making sock monkeys (and other sock critters) but more on that later. I'm on a continual quest to learn the ropes of the kitchen in general. I am not a good cook unless it comes out of a box. I want to get better though. I've sort of gotten the baking thing down over the last year or two and I LOVE to make cupcakes. Red Velvet to be specific. And I also want to learn how to make soap. And someday I will plant a garden. I wanted to get to it this year, but I think I need to conquer our existing landscaping first. We'll see what the coming months hold... I love being able to pick up new hobbies and try things out that I've always wanted to.

Anyway, all for now and best to each of you!
