Last year I celebrated my one year bloggiversary. And during that year, I managed to grow my blog in such a way I didn’t even know possible at the beginning of the year. I’m really enjoying writing when I get the time (I have three little ones under five, you do that math). But one of the best, BEST things that I experienced through blogging this past year has got to be all the wonderful posts I have read. Some have been sad, some happy, and some downright hilarious! I have enjoyed what each one of them has brought to me. So I thought, to begin this new year, I could share with you some my favourites from 2011.

I wanted to write about a long running favorite shopping place in the MOE family. Jouets Choo-Choo is a local toy shop that has been around since 1996, and is now an online shop as well. I love shopping there for my children as well as other little ones for many reasons. First and foremost, the quality of toys that Jouets Choo-Choo carries is exceptional.

I am sure that some of you have noticed this amazing top right button marking me as a Toshiba Brand Ambassador. Well, I hadn’t written anything about it yet because I didn’t want to jinx it! You see, a while back, after I attended the Shes Connected Conference in Toronto, I applied for this great opportunity.

As most of you may be aware, I have reached a big milestone recently: I now have over 1000 followers on Twitter! I am so thrilled about this milestone and even more thrilled that I am able to offer you, my fabulous blog readers and tweeps, a great giveaway!

This Thursday I will be attending my first blogging/networking conference in Toronto called She’s Connected! I’m very excited and honoured to be invited. So much so, that I have done some leg work to get swag for the mama bloggers attending!

There are still a couple of weeks left before summer is gone so make the most of it! How about taking a trip to the beach? We are! We’ve been dreaming about it since we booked the trip over a month ago! The sand, the ocean, the waves, the picnics, we can’t wait!

It’s almost been two weeks since the Great Canadian Blog Bash took place, and it was fantastic! I have to be honest, I have yet to respond and visit all the blogger that attended the weeklong celebration. But the great thing is that the list is still available and I will make my way through all the great posts during the summertime. So if I haven’t responded to you – I will!

The kids had a blast colouring in their traced bodies. And we had some leftover balloons from their birthdays to attach to the cut outs!

I am so thrilled to be taking part in this fantastic event!
Not too long ago, I had the pleasure of meeting Pampered Patty during my own networking/charity event. She’s wonderful! Since then, we have been keeping in touch via Twitter and our blogs. So when she told me she was going to put together a blog party with Whispered Inspirations, Mom vs. The Boys, Good Girl Gone Green and Kat’s Confessions to celebrate Canadian bloggers, I wrote it in my calendar and anxiously awaited the date!
