Why I blog?

Back in the summer I attended a parenting blog camp called Cybermummy where I had my photograph taken with a group of other pregnant bloggers for a ‘bloggers calendar’. To get my hands on a copy of the calendar I need to write a simple blog CV. So here goes…

I started my blog back in 2005 to be a part of the online craft community which inspired me to dust off my sewing basket. Over the years I’ve sewn, baked, got married and had two lovely children and I love the way my blog charts all the ups and downs of life.

The last 21 months since I became a mum have definitely been the most amazing and that’s reflected in the growth of blog posts which chart the arrival of my two children. They have their own blog (which has been sadly neglected since Little Sis arrived 3 weeks ago!) but I hope to get back to blogging more in the New Year.

Since getting involved in the parenting blogging world we’ve had some amazing opportunities including being a Quinny Caster, lunch with Elmo, played with Upsy Daisy and listened to Cerrie from cBeebies read us stories, met Olympian Steve Parry, been photographed for magazines and tried the latest toys. My little blog has also been nominated for Best Overall Blog at the Gurgles – not bad work!

I really enjoy blogging and look forward to squeezing in some time to blog, bake and sew in 2012!

Now, please can I have my bloggers calendar??
