Well, we resisted the blogging movement as long as we could. You see, a good blog requires that you live an exciting life where you do fun things that can be chronicled and retold to an interested audience. A good blog requires that you have special talent in telling stories; talent that makes even the most mundane and boring activities seem like a page out of an action-adventure novel. A good blog requires that you achieve things that are noteworthy or easy to brag to the world about. A good blog requires intelligence and a firm grasp of proper grammar and speling. Let's be clear about one thing ... this is not a good blog. Emily and I fought blogging tooth and nail for this very reason. We resisted the urge to blog the same way that you would resist the urge to fart in church. However, we have come to the painful realization that sometimes you just have to fart ... err ... blog.
"Why did you cave?" you ask. "Why did you go against one of your most precious and treasured morals?" Because we are sick and tired of promising to send you people new pictures of our beautiful baby girl and then lying to your face by not following through on our commitment! We can't sleep at night. Food doesn't taste the same. Our own reflections in the mirror give us judgemental looks as we brush our teeth at night. The time has come to put things right and free ourselves of this aweful guilt. That way if you haven't seen the latest, greatest pictures of Maia it's your own darn fault and we can sleep easy at night (that is, when Maia decides to let us actually sleep). That being said, let's lay down some ground rules:
1. This blog is all about more pictures and less talky-talky (starting just as soon as we get through this introduction). C'mon, you don't want to hear what we have to say anway. Heck, most of the time we don't even want to hear what we have to say.
2. See rule no. 1.
3. No nudity. (Emily stipulates "I can't promise that." I don't know what she has planned for future posts. I'm kind of nervous.)
So, without further ado, we give you the Morin clan blog. Enjoy!
