Creating Your Own Blog

[JimBeam]

So my wife and I are less than a month away from welcoming our 1st child and we wanted to create a blog in order for families and friends to stay current on the adventure.

Any suggestions on the best, free website to use ?

I started looking into Blogger which seemed cool but thought I'd get some other opinions.

congrats and good luck.

your blog will consist of : this kid does nothing but eat,shit and sleep for the first month
oh it wont be sleeping at night though. as the kid gets a few months old it will eat and shit more but sleep less. eventually youll be a zombie who always smells of baby vomit. kids are so overrated. they dont really get to be fun until almost two years old.

by that time though you wouldnt have had a hot decent meal in months.

still wouldnt trade it for the world.

People keep asking me " Are you nervous ? " and I answer, " No, not really. "

It's true because I don't really feel anything right now.

I'm excited but as far as being nervous it's not the case but I don't think I'll know what to feel until I'm in he situation.

I come from a big family so I've been around plenty of babies but I know it'll be different when you have something that you can't give back after 10 minutes.

The reason for the blog is beause I know there are times when I receive emails from people detailing everything that their kids do.

That becomes tedious at times and I don't wanna subject my family/friends to the same thing.

With a blog they can look when/if they like.

My sister uses Blogspot. I don't know much more about it than that.

He probably wants people to read them.:smoke:

BTW... I can't read most of them. Do people have them set up so you can only see them if you're their "buddy"?

A friend of mine runs Baveo (http://www.baveo.com/), a platform for baby blogging that's free to use. I'd say check it out.

Jon, does that site do any business? I'm semi pissed I didn't think of it first.
