Some Changes

Meredith and I started this blog for three reasons:
1. To keep those that we love informed about the goings on in Elise's first year
2. To avoid the annoying email-clogging that pictures, upon pictures, upon pictures creates. That way people could just check in and get a cute baby fix whenever they wanted
3. To keep a record that Elise could look back on someday and say, 'yup, my parents were insane.'
To be honest, if you had asked Meredith or I if we would have blogged about Elise every single week for the first year of her life, we both would have said you're crazy. Fact is, we're pretty lazy and have a hard time sticking with a television show, let alone writing and posting pictures for a year. But, we didn't realize how much fun it was going to be for us. So, for those hardcore Ellie blog readers reading this and thinking, no! it can't end... no worries. It won't. But our posts are going to change.

Meredith and I realized recently that Elise does so many new things so rapidly now that the posts once a week are missing too much stuff. So, we are going move to a more traditional blog. The blogs are going to get a lot smaller with fewer pictures, but we will be posting more often with little tidbits on our ever changing little one. And every now and again - maybe weekly or bi-weekly, we'll be posting some monster picture only blogs.

We hope you like the changes... but if you don't you can always leave us a comment.
