I'm Mommy Monologued Out

Oh gosh. Today I think I talked more than I have in the past few weeks combined. Ask me about blogging and I'll talk your ear off. Ask me about how to market to a Mom and oh yeah I'll tell you what I think. And I also love to hear what other bloggers have to say about that, too.

So, it was a good morning to be sitting on a panel of respected Mom Bloggers such as Arianne of To Think Is To Create, Ashlee of Mama's Nest & Mama Speaks, Jaymi of The Flip Flop Mamma, Amy of Mums The Wurd & Ladybug and Her Blogging Mama, Julie of Mothergoosemouse and Parent Bloggers Network, Jory of BlogHer and Pause, Emily of The Motherhood, and Kim of Traveling Mom. All in huge thanks to Maria Bailey.

I promise to share more about what we discussed. I'm just so wiped from all the matte latte and shopping (new shoes) and handkerchief ravioli and chocolate and talking and walking and getting my heel caught in the sidewalk not just once (huge grate) but twice (sidewalk crack.) Both times required assistance pulling out said heel. This was a big factor in the new shoe purchase. Yeah. Mmm hmm. That's my excuse.

Seriously, anyone working as hard as you are in the Mommy blogger world (while very pregnant) deserves as many pairs of shoes as she wants! :-)
