Ya gotta start somewhere...

So why not start here? This has been a long time coming, and why not at 1:30 in the morning..? I'm sure if you're reading this, you're wondering where "Baby Graffiti" came from. Here goes...My partner (Sheri) and I have been wanting to start a blog for our life for a while. Now, we have a baby..a 2 1/2 month old baby. We mainly want this to document her life. If we get mentioned every now and then, so be it. :) Plus, my sister-in-law has one and I think it's awesome to read the adventures of her family! Back to the title. I struggled and struggled coming up with something that wasn't cliche. I finally had the idea to get her to come up with one of her favorite words, and I would come up with mine. So, there ya have it. It's as simple as that. One of my favorite words is "graffiti" and one of her favorite words is "baby." Wow..I know. Now looking at it, it kinda makes sense. Graffiti is any type of public marking that may appear in the form of simple words, or elaborate art. Baby..well, baby is self-explanatory. So, these are the simple words of our life & baby, sometimes more artsy than others.

So, background information comes first I guess. I'm Robin. I have a partner (Sheri), a daughter (Kennedi), 3 dogs (Jackson, Pacey, & Maggie), I teach, I coach, & I have a long list of things I probably should be doing besides being on this blog. Sheri is a professor at Auburn University. Sheri has a journal that I bought for her to chronical Kennedi's life. At least the beginning of Kennedi's life. As you can imagine, that journal is empty, hence the blog.

Kennedi Lee was born March 26th, 2010 at 8:57pm. She was 20 inches long (although we think they didn't quite measure her right since she measured exactly the same at her one month check-up) and weighed 7lbs 3ozs. We fell head over hills right when she came out..of course! She had the perfect amount of brown hair and blue eyes. (We're not sure where the blue eyes came from...they seem to be hanging around though). Maybe I'll have the energy to go back and write the birth story one night..but not tonight.

I guess if we're going to chronicle daily events, today we went to eat with family friends (Tonya, Cheri, Austin, Lucas, & Kelsey) at Durango's. I, of course, had Kennedi dressed up cute, in jeans and a Ralph Lauren polo t-shirt. Well, it was so hot in there that Kennedi ended up coming out of the jeans and chillin' in her Pamper. She hates getting hot, so that made her a much happier camper!
