My First Blog

I would be lying if I didn't tell you that until moments ago when I looked up "Blogging" in Wikapedia, I didn't completely know what this phenomenon was all about, and still must admit, I don't entirely understand it. But here goes an attempt to join with the times and start my first blog. I hope this will be a place where I can chart my childrens development as I have never been faithful at maintaining baby books, and keep family and friends up to date with daily happenings and exciting milestones. Perhaps I will also be able to share parenting insights and other areas of expertise (too many to list) with followers, which as of now total zero.

So as a brief summary to bring everyone up to date, here's how The Liljedahl household or "The Lily Pad" looks:
Amanda and Jim who met or reconnected (our paths cross many times as children) in College, married shortly thereafter and had Jameson now 7. Two and half years later we welcomed a new playmate and bestfriend for Jameson when we had Cameron. After five wonderful years we got the girls we always wanted when we had identical twins- Avery and Ella. We are still not entirely sure how this happened but we both always dreamed of having twins! So life in the Lily pad is very busy,and crazy at times but most of all fun and filled with love!
