Baby letter #1– The early weeks

Brandon and I are expecting our first child. Shortly after we found out, I began writing letters to my baby. I write one every month. When they are finished, I will print them out and include them in our little one’s baby book. I hope one day our son or daughter enjoys having his/her development chronicled. For now, they are mostly something I do for myself. Writing is how I relate to the world, and my first letter was the beginning of my bond with my baby. Aside from the usual (life, genes, a family, a home), my writing is the greatest gift I can give to my child.

Welcome!

Hello! Welcome to our family blog. We’re the Huffmans– Brandon, Michelle, Darcy, Pizi & Stella.

Brandon & Michelle

Brandon is a lawyer, Cleveland native, Tar Heel, politico, amateur photographer, mediocre gambler.

And I’m Michelle– writer, Disney fanatic, Tar Heel, Southern Belle, amateur chef, hippie, fashion devotee.

Our girls, plus their spaniel cousin Bella

I decided to start this blog so our family and friends can keep up with our goings-on (although I suspect that Pam will be 90% of the visits). I will always be the writer, but most of the pictures will come from Brandon, since he’s our in-house photographer.

Thanks for stopping by!
