Some of you visiting my blog today might be slightly confused. It’s Wednesday and The Bachelor was on this week. So where is the Bachelor Recap post and the Bachelor link up? It’s on hiatus this week…not for lack of thoughts on this week’s episode, but because I’m making some announcements and doing a bit of housekeeping today. (Trust me, I have thoughts on The Bachelor…like what is going on with Vienna’s hair?! And why is Ali so incapable of focusing on herself?!). For all of you Bachelor fans, hold on tight until next week when my recap and Bachelor link up series returns! Now on to the news….
#1: I’m Leaving on a Jet Plane! But I Haven’t Forgotten All of You:
Most of you already know I’m headed to Blissdom tomorrow and are probably expecting my blog to be completely quiet until Monday. But never fear my dears, because I’ve scheduled some entertainment for you while I’m away!
I’ve got 3 great guest bloggers lined up for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. These gals have fabulous blogs and I’m so flattered and honored to have them holding down the fort while I’m getting my bliss on. I hope to be able to repay the favor to them in the future. Beginning tomorrow, I will have their posts and links to their blogs in my sidebar. Even though I’m out of town, my blog will still be hoppin’! (And don’t forget, I’m going to a BLOGGING conference, where laptops, tweeting, and Facebooking are mandatory, not optional, so you’ll still see me around!).
#2: Have I Got Something For You!
I’ve been lucky enough to review and become involved in some great product campaigns lately. Not only do I enjoy learning about new mom and family-friendly products, I love to introduce you to them and give you opportunities to get your hands on these products. With that in mind, upon my return on Monday, I’ll be introducing:
For the rest of February, I’ll be holding weekly giveaways. I’m also working on a few more campaign ideas in the coming months, so in addition to visiting my blog to read my posts, stay tuned for even more great products and opportunities to win!
#3. How About a Featured Blogger This Week?
There will not be a Featured blog next week as I am out of town and featuring 3 great guest bloggers while I am out of town. But if you’d like to be a featured blogger OR recommend someone to have a “Mommy Moment,” I’d love to hear from you! All it takes is sharing some thoughts on motherhood to find your blog in the spotlight for a week.
#4. And I Couldn’t Forget….
Just wanted to take a minute to thank you, my readers. You stuck by me through my redesign, through my move, and now through my vacation. You retweet my tweets and comment on my posts…and trust me, I appreciate each and every one of you for visiting, reading, and conversing. Thank you! It’s because of you that I enjoy doing this!
Now stay well, have a great week, and be sure to give my guest posters a warm welcome! I’ll be back on Monday with a post from Blissdom!

Since you’re leaving me (sniff, sniff), I’m throwing a party… a PITY party… with Amanda from Serenity Now. So fear not, I’ll be comforted in my sorrow!
Bring us back TONS of tips!

I’m bummed you can’t go! Tell your boss that, too. On second thought, after reading your post the other day, don’t!
