Forums...31DBBB Day #9

The task for today in the 31DBBB challenge is to join a forum & start participating. Well, I already do this!! I love forums. I really love discussing & connecting with others as well as having a great place to get some advice! As a new mom, I find myself with lots of questions! Here are my favorite forums right now:

Of course, the SITS community on BlogFrog

I am loving Adriel's new Oh Baby! community on BlogFrog

I participate in my own Ingenue Mom community on BlogFrog

I also enjoy A Belle, A Bean & A Chicago Dog community on BlogFrog

I've found the Teaching Your Baby to Sleep forum on Babycenter is really helpful!

The Babywise forum on Babycenter has also been a great resource for me!

The forums provide great resources for community, but also for finding ideas for blog topics! You can see what others in your niche are talking about. I actually never link to my own blog in forums unless I'm asked to or I feel it's really relevant. I really am trying to build relationships with people & I feel like if they like what I have to say, they'll check out my blog on their own.

What are your favorite forums?

BlogFrog - which isn't working this morning - is such a great place to interact and build relationships! Thanks so much for the shout and I'm glad you visit my community!

I really enjoy Blogfrog for blog related community! I also think Facebook is a great way to get your friends and family reading what you're writing (if you want them to!).

Why do I not understand BlogFrog? I am usually pretty quick... but I think I need a tutor. Anyway... while I am trying to figure it out, I thought I would join your community. :-)

10 on Tuesday: 10 Favorite 6 Month Pics

This is completely gratuitous, just me posting pictures of Isis, but my friend Hannah took some pictures of our family yesterday! She is such a great photographer & she is also going to be watching Isis for me in the fall when I start my student teaching. I feel so blessed to have her as a friend on top of the fact that she takes gorgeous pictures of Isis!! I also realized that I didn't put any of the ones where she is smiling in this post. This just means I'll have to post more another time! Get excited! (And this is not a great comment-grabbing post , but who cares? This is for the digital baby book!)

10 on Tuesday: 10 Pet Peeves

This is technically a 10 on Tuesday , but the idea is from Mama Kat's Writer's Workshop ! 10 of My Worst Pet Peeves 1. People who don't wash their hands - especially after going to the bathroom. Ewwwww 2. The smell of burps - or just being able to smell a burp. 3. People who interrupt when others are talking. 4. Scratching people with my bare fingernails 5. Gristle in chicken 6. When people sing the harmony part with a song on the radio 7. People who are trying to turn in a non-turn lane - or people who wait until the last second to get in the turn lane 8. People who speak excessively loud in normal conversation 9. Picky eaters 10. Drivers who change lanes every 4 seconds What are your 10 Pet Peeves? Read more of my 10 on Tuesdays
