BlogHer was amazing. Yes, it's insanely busy... you're always scheduled to do something... BUT, it's worth it. I learned quite a bit at the sessions I did attend... but, the best thing about this conference is being around all of these bloggers! It was so great to be able to talk about my blog without getting the, "yeah, I know you blog already" look. The bloggers were my favorite part of the whole conference. Loved it. Seriously... these bloggers are CA-razay! In a good way.... of course. ;)
Sooo.... There are so many lovely blogger ladies in the photos below. I'm just going to list their names and sweet blogs here: Mae from Parenting in Progress, Jill from Baby Rabies, Jenni from the Blog, Torie of 25 Designs, Beth Anne of Heir to Blair, Morgan from the 818, Alena from Charmingly Chandler, Hannah from Peggy Ann Design, Jenna from Blogged Bliss, Mandy from Harper's Happenings, Erika of Bird E Studios, Dumb Mom from Parenting by Dummies, Suzanne of Bebeblog, Mandey from Mama and the Dudes, Molly from a Day in Mollywood, Stephanie from Mrs. Stephanie T., and... of course: I was there!
Ummm.... and, here are my millions of iPhone pics I took. :D Linking up with Amy of course. :D
AND... because this post should just be longer.... This is how we kicked off BlogHer '11:
I have more to share about what I'd do different next year... and what I've learned (because I know you want to know...). For now... just a few highlights and dislikes.
Highlights:
- The bloggers.
- The sessions.
- Hand-dipped Dove bar.
- The session with Gluten Free Girl.
- Seriously... all the bloggers I met. The BEST thing.
- The first day in San Diego. So fun.
- My roomies.
- Your mom. Just kidding... just checking to see if you were still paying attention. ;)
- Day drinking... I know... But, it was fun.
- The first day's breakfast.... hash browns... bacon... WTF? Yes. AMAZING.
Dislikes:
- Lack of sleep.
- Missing my baby.
- Not being able to clone myself to be two places at one time.
- missing my baby.
- Thinking it was a good idea to fly out at 6:30 am on Sunday morning... wha? Yeah... 3 hours of sleep.
- Lack of sleep.
- The second day's breakfast.... oatmeal... bagels... fruit... meh.
Sadly... I met these ladies (and two dudes) and did not manage to get photos with them (well, I think I'm in a couple cell phone pics with a couple ladies): Jamie from the Grumbles and Grunts, Kylee from Two Pretzels, Krystal from Tie a Little Ribbon, How to Be a Dad's, Katie from Pickles and Paisleys, Miranda from Not Super Just Mom, Amanda from a Martini Always Helps, Angry Julie, Stephanie of Goober Grape and Monkey Man, Kelly from Turnip Farmer, Nanette from Say it, don't spray it, and so many more!

Hey everyone, I wanted to make a video instead of a basic guest post. Sometimes words can't describe how you feel for someone. I hope you find this video heartwarming...

Hi there! I'm Jessica from TART and so happy to be guest posting for the lovely Chelsey! I thought I'd share some of my hair tips with you guys.. they're not perfect but that's the point. They're the quick(lazy) tips and methods for achieving the looks I was going for and I hope at least one (or all three) of them will be something you'll want to try yourself and have fun with!
1st- My more modern look. It's basically just a tip about how I have my hair cut, but I also share one simple way to spice it up with an accessory that I'm sure you've seen many times before.
2nd- My 1950s pinup inspired look that I can't get enough of. This is my lazy method but I think it still looks just as cute as when I go all out and spend a lot of time on it. Note: if you have bangs like me you can curl them under (down towards your forehead, not up towards your part) and bobby pin them to achieve a quick, more authentic barrel look if you want.
3rd- My 1920s flapper inspired look. I was trying to keep the video short and sweet so don't mind the fly-aways and too-loose pin curls. This is one of my favorite hairstyles for a night out on the town.
Thanks for watching and enjoy!
❤

This is THEE best way to keep Ruari from running off to the street (her favorite direction to run) at the park. Angus doesn't like to be too close to Ruari... and, Ruari wants so bad to pet and cuddle Angus! It's perfect.
Directions:
1. Put chihuahua that does not like to be touched by babies on a retractable leash.
2. Take a baby that loves to pet chihuahuas and attach them to the other end of the leash.
3. Done. No chihuahua's were hurt in the making of this video.
Could we get a vote for our blog? We are about to fall a spot. :D Thanks!
