Mommy Blogs Are For Babies

I seem to be hooked. Yes, I guess that’s the right word. Turns out blogging is kinda fun. If anything, it provides an outlet to the swirling array of irritants that inhabit my brain day to day. So, that’s great. No one ever accused me of not knowing how to bitch and moan.

And I have to take a moment and respectfully say to all you blahg blahg blahg-ers, Thank you! Thank you for sharing intimate details of your lives with the entire world. Thank you for letting me peek into your houses and judge your families! Seriously, though, this is like better than reality T.V. - of which you may or may not know I am a firm believer and loving friend.

That being said, I thought I’d share some new discoveries with you all. When you’re not hunched over your computers (as I am now), here are some worthwhile resources to get your creativity flowing:

Rookie Moms (two silly mamas’ guide to the first year of motherhood) - This site rules. Why does it rule? Well, you’ll have to go to find out. But here’s a hint - over 300 (and counting) ways to keep busy with baby. From art projects to life lists, this site guarantees hours of fun.

See Mommy Run - Here you can find a FREE mommy group in your city and state to run or walk with. Shortly after I had Squid, I looked into joining Baby Boot Camp…that is, until I realized it was gonna cost me about $100/month. But if you want to get back in shape and meet other moms without breaking the bank, See Mommy Run is the way to go. The best part is, you can start up your own group in your neighborhood if one doesn’t already exist.

goCityKids - This site is awesome if you live in a major city like I do. It allows you to search for activities to do with your children in specific neighborhoods near you. You can search by date, type of activity (author readings, seasonal/holiday, art workshops, sports, parks & playgrounds, indoor fun, etc.), desired neighborhood, and/or age of child.

Have fun!
