I use Google's BlogSpot, it is free and pretty easy to figure out on your own. You can check mine out if you would like at http://lifeofawink.blogspot.com there is a link to make your own at the top right hand corner. Good luck.

First off, Bravo to you! I didn't start blogging until my son was 10 months old and I really wish I'd started when I was pregnant. I'm terrible about writing in my kids' baby books, but blogging helps to dissuade the guilt by knowing I'm documenting their milestones elsewhere! (Plus, my family and friends love to "peek in" on our blog to see how we're doing.)

I also use blogspot and have been very happy with it. It's very easy to use. I also use picasa to organize, edit and post pictures directly to blogspost It's free to download. http://picasa.google.com/index-new2.html You can also look into http://www.babysites.com/ I have never used it, but a friend of mine does. It caters to a mom wanting to journal a baby's growth, however, I believe it charges you if you want to add another child to your site.

Good luck to you ... and happy blogging!

I use babyjellybeans.com. You can create an entire website to show off your little one, journals, pictures, video. It is super cute and you can password protect it if you want. It's $8.95 a month. If you want to see my page PM me and I'll tell you how to access it.

I really like Blogger through Google. It is free. It's really easy to use and easy to personalize. Your blog address is your user name. blogspot.com, so it's really easy to remember,too. I've been doing mine a little while now and I love it. I'm totally addicted, which is good because I'm terrible at keeping a journal, so this helps me to record all the things going on in my family's life.

You can look at my blog if you want to see an example of what you can easily do with your blog. http://scottandjillian.blogspot.com

I just started using blogspot. It was really easy to start up. Only took about an hour to get it set up and started. They make it really easy to do. They also have a photo album that you can put all your photos. I added the link to our photo album on the blog so everyone always has access to the most current pictures. Good Luck!

I've been on Xanga since my first daughter was just under a year old. I joined because a lot of my friends were on there. Now, I've also made some great online mommy friends there, as well. My blog is www.xanga.com/utlawgirl if you want to check it out. Good luck! It's lots of fun!
