Blogs I love

Lately I have added several blogs to my Google Reader.   If you follow blogs regularly, you know it can be annoying to have to click on each link to see if there are new updates.  Well, Google Reader is what you need!  You can use it to have all of your blogs in one spot - and see when new updates have been posted.  I attended a workshop on Google tools for the classroom last night and learned that Google is awesome.  Well, I already knew that, but it was reaffirmed last night.  :o)

Back to the point of this post, here are some of my favorite blogs, and why I love them.
Fly Through Our Window
I love this blog for many reasons.  Mostly though, it is because of her adorable kids! She has lots of great stories about motherhood and takes beautiful pictures.  Even though her life looks perfect, she blogs about how that isn't always the case.  She inspires me to be crafty!  Her twin sister blogs about interior design, and I check hers occasionally.

Enjoying the Small Things
This photographer turned blogger shared her beautiful story of Nella, her daughter that was born with Down Syndrome.  After this, she was on CNN and her blog is becoming pretty famous.  Inspirational, well written, beautifully photographed.  Plus, it has a great playlist to listen to!

Young House Love
This blog is great for ideas for home reno/decor on a budget.  I am obsessed with all things home decor, AND I am on a budge.  Score!

Pioneer Woman
If you haven't checked out Pioneer Woman's website, or tried one of her recipes, you are missing out!  I have loved each recipe I have made (and must get her cookbook ...hint, hint, hubby!) mostly because she shows step by step what to do with photos.  She blogs about photography, life on her ranch homeschooling her "punks" and cooking.  Now that she is famous she tells stories of TV appearances, book tours, etc.

Bakerella
Feeling creative?  Like to bake?  Then check out her website!  She has the most adorable ideas for sweets.  Her pictures are devine and I'm sure the goodies are, as well.  I plan to make some cake balls soon, which is what she is famous for.

TomKat Studio
Fabulous party ideas!  She also has an etsy store.  Etsy = an afternoon wasted on the computer for me.

At Your Cervix
This is a labor and delivery nurse studying to be a midwife.  She shares what it is like to be working in with OBs and expectant mothers.  She supports natural delivery and VBAC and is anti-pitocin and induction.  I agree!


I have many others from friends of mine, but these are the big ones that might interest some of you. 

Hopefully you will enjoy peeking into our lives through this blog!
