Thanks to Corin at The Human Paci­fier for my very first blog award!
This Blog is Rated E for Excellent

Here’s what she had to say about my blog: “The Beau­ti­ful Let­down for the most cre­ative, and in my opin­ion, well…beautiful…blog name with the best play on words.“

By accept­ing this Excel­lent Blog Award, I have to award it to 10 more peo­ple who’s blog’s I find Excel­lent Award wor­thy. I can give it to as many peo­ple as I want but please award at least 10. Thank you out there for hav­ing such great blogs and being such great friends! You deserve this! If cho­sen, you agree to the same infor­ma­tion above. If cho­sen, also feel free to award peo­ple who have already been awarded…

Here is my top ten list of blogs that I feel deserve an Excel­lent Blog Award:

1. Adven­tures in Baby­wear­ing- Thanks for the Baby­wear­ing tips! I’m a wannabe baby­wearer, and read­ing your blog inspires me to get out my mei tai when it’s been on the shelf a lit­tle too long!

2. Breast­feed­ing­Mums Blog- Sinead was the first per­son to com­ment on my blog and encour­age me to keep writ­ing. Her blog has great breast­feed­ing infor­ma­tion, and she recently started a social net­work for women.

3. Breast­feed­ing 1–2-3- I can always find some good infor­ma­tion here. I like her breast­feed­ing quotes and reviews of books that I don’t always know about or have the time to find on my own.

4. The Lac­tivist Breast­feed­ing Blog- This is the first breast­feed­ing blog that I started to read reg­u­larly. It’s also one that I know when I have a new thread in my blog reader there will be some­thing thought pro­vok­ing and well worth reading.

5. Mama Knows Breast- This is one of my newer finds. Right now I am par­tic­u­larly lov­ing her posts of “One Mom’s Story” giv­ing dif­fer­ent breast­feed­ing experiences.

6. Not a DIY Life- I found this blog dur­ing NaBloPoMo and I’m still enjoy­ing it.

7. Nurs­ing Your Kids- This is another blog I found dur­ing NaBloPoMo. Still enjoy­ing this one, too!

8. On Pans and Knea­dles- Since I’m always look­ing for new recipes, I appre­ci­ate this blog for sav­ing me from eat­ing spaghetti with meat sauce 10 times in one month.

9. Mama Speaks- I love this blog! It’s reviews and links to prod­ucts and web­sites that are mom-approved. I just recently started read­ing this one, and I love when I go there and find a new entry.

10. A Blessed Life- This is one of my favorite blogs, but I may be a lit­tle biased since it belongs to my husband’s sis­ter. She is a pho­tog­ra­pher and is con­stantly post­ing pic­tures of the cute kids she pho­tographs and my beau­ti­ful nieces! What more could I want from a blog?

    Thanks, Casey! I’m hon­ored! One thing I love about the bloggy com­mu­nity is the love is freely shared.

    And there’s noth­ing wrong with spaghetti — we eat it once a week around here. It’s my fall-back meal, when every­thing is chaotic.

    Thanks for shar­ing the bloggy bling!
