Finding My Niche

Here I am, again, in the wonderful world of blogging. I've done this before, rather unsuccessfully, never really finding an area of my life that is worthy of regular blogging. I am multi-faceted, like anyone else, and my life is made up of bits and pieces. There is one part of me that dominates the rest, though. My mommy side. I'm not "just" a mom, but I am proudly a mom, and mostly a mom. All my life I've searched for something I am good at, something I love to do. I found it the day my oldest son was born. I often feel inadequate, but I suppose deep down I know I am a good mom. And there is nothing on earth I love more than spending my days with my boys.
As you do, with the first post in a new blog, a bit of an introduction. I'll keep it brief and as uncomplicated as I can. I'm Shauna. My husband is Doug. I thought about being creative and giving us all clever faux names, but I'm not that brilliant, especially not in my sleep deprived state. My boys are Ty and Nate. Ty is going to be two at the end of this month and is constantly proving to us that toddlers are weird and gross creatures, and that the capacity to learn things at this stage of development is amazing. Nate was born a little more than three weeks ago, on Canadian Thanksgiving. So far, we're having a pretty smooth newborn stage. Nate sleeps sometimes, eats a lot, and makes cute little baby noises. We're a pretty average family, i suppose. Catholic Canadians with a dog and a cat in a modest apartment. It's nothing fancy, but we like our crazy life, and feel incredibly blessed.
I hope you'll stick around. There's lots of fun brewing in the belly of this blog!
