Sunshine Award

Filed Under Awards, Blogging | 2 Comments

I was given the “Sunshine Award” by Dawn at The Bent Bunch! She has two adorable kids, James and Natalie. Natalie is one tough little girl who just had another heart surgery and is doing amazing! Dawn manages to stay optimistic about life most of the time- and when she’s not being optimistic she’s still pretty darn funny! I enjoy reading her blog and I’m glad we’ve become “online friends.” Thanks!

So here are the rules of this cute award:
- Put the logo on your blog or within your post.
- Pass the award onto 12 bloggers.
- Link the nominees within your post.
- Let the nominees know they have received this award by commenting on their blog.
- Share the love and link to the person from whom you received this award.

Here is my list of blogs that make me smile

Baby Makes Three
Chasing Groundhogs
Happily Ever After
Life in the Soupbowl
Adventures in Adam Land
This Magic Life
Happiness Times Two

Okay so not exactly twelve but these are some that I look forward to reading when they have a new post in my feed reader. And now I have to run and get dinner started (just meatloaf and potatoes, nothing exciting, but the leftover meatloaf will freeze well for after baby and that’s my goal at this point!)

My Fabulous Blog Award

Filed Under Awards, Blogging | 4 Comments

My wonderful friend Jen gave me this blog award. I am glad she thinks my blog is fabulous. I think that she is! And there are also a few blogs that I think are fabulous. You should check them out if you are looking for new reading material!

1. Chasing Groundhogs- She got married, got a new job, and moved to Alaska within the last six months. How much more interesting could life be? She’s also one of my best friends in real life.

2. Mutha Mae- She’s super funny. Sometimes you wonder if she’s high on painkillers. Sometimes she is. (Okay, but that’s because she recently had major surgery!) She has three adorable girls and tells great stories about them.

3. Canape- She’s back! An amazing friend and a wonderful blogger who was recently on hiatus and just started blogging again. Stop by and give her a big welcome back to the blogosphere!

4. Three Times the Love- She’s a very talented writer AND a mom of three. Both of those are things I would like to be someday. One of the reasons I love her blog is that she has made me rethink several issues. She has some great insight and her posts are interesting and entertaining.

5. My Five Little Monkeys- A great person and a fabulous mother. She has triplets AND twins. She is funny and real and her kids are adorable. I probably need to take some patience lessons from her.

If you were nominated and you want to play, just pass on this award to five bloggers you think are fabulous!!
