It’s my Blog-o-versary!

Well folks, somehow it’s happened…I’ve officially been blogging for 7 years! My first post was the lyrics to Jason Aldean’s “Laughed until We Cried”; I had no idea what blogging even was, but thought of it more as a journal/pinterest/whatever spot. Obviously, those posts have long since been gone, and many other things have changed.

This blog started out about infertility, then the longer that took, the more it became about other things, my quilting, books, cooking… then suddenly we had Avelyn, and I didn’t really qualify as an “Infertility Blogger” anymore, then we had triplets, and I REALLY didn’t qualify as an infertility blogger. Since then I’ve kind of been in a difficult dilemma, with trying to figure out what exactly I am when it comes to my writing.

I struggled struggle with the idea of being more than “just” a blogger, that perhaps I am a writer {duh! which every blogger is}, but it’s hard to embrace something and slap an official label on it. Makes it much scarier.

I have no idea where this blog is going in the next seven years or what God has planned for our family, this blog, or my writing, but I hope that you’ll continue to join me along the way!

It's a week of giveaways in the White House: Celebrating my 7th year of blogging! @LifeintheWhiteHouse.com

Over the next few days there will be a new giveaway every day, all of them for books that I have enjoyed and want to pass along, or books that I SO enjoyed that I went out and bought multiple copies to share with my friends! Be sure to check back every day or sign up for the blog posts via email {the sign up is over there in the sidebar} so that you don’t miss out!

Here’s the first one:

day 2

I loved both of these books and bought copies in bulk to pass along: I hope whomever wins them enjoys them and gleans as much wisdom and hope from them as I did.
