So Rich told me he'd create a website. I think there's one out there, but it's not finished. Here's the reason why: when you have a little baby, everything else becomes minute, like smaller than a bunch of iotas floating around on a pinhead. For instance, Rich has been home from work with me since June 6th. Normally, when people have time off of work, they DO things. Not us. We bounce, eat, bounce, watch TV, bounce, change diapers, bounce, sleep for an hour, etc. It really is amazing how consuming having a baby can be. I'm sure some of you are already thinking "bo-ring, I don't want to read some cliche about how parenting has changed Lana's life". Tough. It's the truth and you all know I tell it like it is.
So back to the website...I keep asking, he keeps putting it off. Surprisingly he can still clock in about three hours of Romance of the Three Kingdoms X each day (for all you lucky people that don't have a video game obsessed husband, it's a strategy video game kind of like Risk). But I digress, so we've taken over three hundred pictures of Declan since he's been born. I know this because I secretly loaded them all onto my dad's ipod when he wasn't looking (you're welcome) because he said he'd rather see Declan in person than look at pictures and it made me mad. Until now, I've been sending them out every few weeks all while feeling sheepish because I don't want to be "that mom", the one who thinks everyone wants to see a hundred pictures of her baby, but notice I send them anyway because the truth is that every mom is "that mom". We'll talk about how Declan is "advanced" another time. Seriously, he is. I swear.
It's like I had wine and I can't stop talking, except this time I'm interrupting myself. Back to the website. So basically I decided that the website is just not going to happen so I should just take the reins myself and viola, here's my blog. It's called The Declan Report because I'll post all my pictures and videos of the babe and this way people can choose to look or not. It's mutually beneficial.
If you like it, let me know. It will give me encouragement to continue.

p.s. Please excuse grammatical errors. I'm running on limited sleep here.

What a great idea! You'll have to teach me how to do my own.
What an exciting world of Declan Corcoran! I am anxious to look more at your blog...definitely a fun thing to have especially for us folk that don't get the priveledge of seeing the 'lil (I mean big?) man on a daily basis. :) I can't wait to meet him!
