Starting A Blog

So...this is not something I know anything about or have ever considered doing, but I have spent this sunday afternoon looking at blogs of friends and strangers and I was inspired to attempt my first blog. And it seems like an appropriate time to start a blog with a little one on the way. I think it will be a great way to document all of the milestones in Baby Alderman's life and a way for family and friends to keep up with our lives since most of us are spread out in different cities.

As for the name....I can't take credit for it for more reasons than the obvious (for those of you who don't keep up with the Kardashian's it is clearly a rip-off of their reality show name), but I have to give credit to Brandon because as we were driving back to Atlanta and I was coming up with this fabulous idea to create a blog to keep our friends and family up to date on baby/family news I asked his opinion on what it should be called and his immediate response was "keeping up with the Aldermans." I laughed--but decided it is very fitting for the purpose of this blog, so I hope those of you who are interested enjoy keeping up with the soon to be much more exciting (and hectic) life that is to come with the addition of our first baby next April! Just a forewarning for anyone reading this, it will most likely be on the boring side as I attempt to learn how to blog.  I have a good 5 months left with some free time to practice loading pictures and posting updates and hopefully I will have it mastered in time to easily update all of the adventures in the life of baby Alderman!
