Get to Know Me
I was nominated by fellow mommy blogger Mama by Fire, she has a wonderful blog and shares crafts, reviews, the daily happenings of a family of 4. Check out her blog.
The idea of this award is to spread the blogger love and get to know each other a bit better.
The Rules:
1. Link to the person who nominated you.
2. Add the award logo.
3. Answer the questions your nominator has asked.
4. Nominate a few other blogs and let them know.
5. Ask your nominees 10 questions
1. How did you come up with the name of your blog?
A few years back I started a blog with a similar name that I never really wrote in. I even had forgotten I had it. When I logged into blogger it showed up and I just simply tweaked the name and added mommy at the end, it was that simple.
2. Post the last picture on your phone.
Cute right? Was out for a walk with the little one and stumbled upon it.
3. What is something people may not know about you?
I write several to-do lists, and sometimes I get so overwhelmed with how much I have to take care of that I end up doing NOTHING. I’m the biggest procrastinator you’ve ever met.
4. What’s your daytime drink? Coffee, tea, energy drink?
In the morning I always have a cup of black coffee but never alone. I have to eat in order to drink.
5. Have you gone to, or are you going to, any blogging conferences this year?
I have not, but who knows? Maybe in the near future. It would sure be fun.
6. How long have you been blogging and why did you start?
One year and a couple of weeks, I started as a way to vent/share about the daily happenings of a new mom. Now it’s turned into more of “I want to share valuable information”
7. What is the most valuable blogging advice you have gotten? Bonus-who gave it to you?
Stop focusing on little aspects of your blog, as far as look, logo or anything else and just write. Content is what’s important. I have yet to follow through on this but it’s something I’m striving to accomplish.
8. What is your favorite post and why? (post a link!!)
12 Things I wish I had done Before Giving Birth is my favorite post because it’s so real and it’s things that maybe you’re not thinking about. It really comes from a place of hurt, emotion and guilt for me.
9. Where is your favorite place to visit, in your area, with your family?
I love going to any beach or museum. I like to visit a different place every time, I love new experiences.
10. When do you write most often? Do you have a set schedule everyday?
Most often isn’t something I’m doing right now. I write when I have the time or when I decide that chore will be done another time. I wish I had a set schedule to write.
Now onto my nominations and questions – Participation no required but I hope you all play along!

We are twinsies on the list thing. I will write a million lists and then get overwhelmed at what I should do first on the list and end up not doing anything at all. On the upside when I am able to get things done on my list I feel so accomplished!

I don't think my last comment went through-if so, just disregard this one… Thank you for accepting the award! It was fun getting to know you better! I love writing lists too. Only so I can cross things off so I feel some sort of accomplishment. Thank you for your kind words too! 🙂
