Jen Houck Rocks and Is Nice

August 28, 2007 by Jennifer 9 Comments

Well aren't you just self-centered Jen? HA! Just joking. I have been given two awards over the last couple weeks and it has really touched me ALOT. You know going through this journey of motherhood is so awesome but it makes it even better if you have fellow mommies to take that journey with you.

My bestest bud Nell Taliercio over at CasualFridayEveryday.com gave me the Rocking Blogger Award.

We first met back in 2003 and then lost touch and crossed paths back in early 2005 again and have became such great best buds. We have been there for each other and just last night when I was having a bad night, Nell was there once again to give me positive words. I appreciate her and adore our friendship greatly! So thank you very much for honoring me Nell with this award.

I would like to give this award to the following two women:

Jenn @ Natural News because she just plain rocks with her expertise on baby carriers and I have got to really know her over past couple weeks and really enjoying her blog!

Stef @ Mommy Musings because she is a new mommy blogger and she has some funny posts. Go check out her site! I can't wait to meet up with you Stef.

Now another mommy blogger that I have got to know really good over past month is Val over at Purple Valley. This wonderful mommy does beautiful work with photography. I can't wait till she comes to Disney so she can do a photoshoot of my girlies :). She has awarded me the Nice Award:

This really touched me and I couldn't thank her enough. I love blogging and I am addicted to her blog as well. Nice makes the world so much happier and it warms my heart knowing all of us mommy bloggers are doing just that! You rock and are nice too VAL ;). Definitely a positive influence on the blogging world 🙂

I award the following a Nice Matters Award, because you the represent the following to me:

"This award is for those bloggers who are nice people; good blog friends and those who inspire good feelings and inspiration. Also for those who are a positive influence on our blogging world. Once you've been awarded please pass it on to 7 others who you feel are deserving of this award."

Tiffany @ Natural Family Living
Deb @ Mom of 3

My New Carrier

August 27, 2007 by Jennifer 12 Comments

I'm so excited… I just had to come share and brag on Jenn over at All Natural Mommies as well. See she had seen one of my blog designs and had emailed me and I suggested why not we just barter? She agreed YAY! So first off go look at her new blog design and then look below of what we barterd with.

You see I have always wore Lyndsee in pouch slings, but with her getting so tall, she was getting really cramped and would not let me sling her anymore :(. I ran across these new carriers of Jenn's and I believe this is just what we have been looking for. Lyndsee LOVES LOVES LOVES to ride on my back so I'm hoping this will be a big plus for her. Now, I have some practice to do on getting this perfected, but as you can see on the picture below she is loving it. I had the fabric behind her leg and it should have been in front of it. We'll keep working on it :).

I am just so happy about this, now my arms will not ache so much in stores, as my little missy does not like to be out of my arms much ;).

Thank you so much Jenn!! I'm in love! If you are in the market for a new carrier, hop on over there now and Jenn will help you find just the right product for you and your child.

Happy 2nd Birthday One Moms World

Click here to listen… for a Special Message from my girls and I 🙂

I can't believe it has been two years from the exact date August 16, 2005 since I started blogging. It sure has been fun and I am so happy I started. This has been my online journal of sorts and I will be soon creating a book from the posts here to give to my girls. I will continue doing that as long as I blog. I always wanted to do this and I think they will love to look back on what mommy wrote when they get older.

So… guess what!!! Let's celebrate One Moms World for being two years old!! I have a new layout that goes well with Firefox and IE now Thankfully 😉 and we have balloons and cake for everyone!

I am also giving away to all my fellow mommy bloggers free access to my Fitness and Health Pack. Just send me an email to jenhouck @ gmail.com (take out the spaces) and I will send you the download link.

It's all yours as our gift to say Thank You for being a part of "ONE MOMS WORLD"

Cheers to everyone and here's to many more years of wonderful blogging from Jen and One Moms World 🙂

Mommy got her own room

August 5, 2007 by Jennifer 6 Comments

YES! You read the title right. Mommy has her own room… Mommy has her own room… I'm so excited. See the girls usually take up space all throughout the house with their toys and such and its not really a big deal but as I'm getting wiser in my older years HA!.. I am wanting more organization throughout the house.

Ever since I have worked at home, I have always shared space with the girls and never really had my own space so to speak. You do know the kids rule our world right . Anywho today hubbs and I decided to do some organizing so I could have my own office space to where I can go in there and get away from everything and concentrate. Let me show you the final outcome.

Girls Space Now:

Mommys Space Now:

I am so stoked to get my own space. Hubbs let me celebrate this evening by having daddy and daughter time. He took the girls to the pool, then came home gave their baths to them and rocked Lyndsee to sleep and read Madisyn a story. It felt so good to have "my own space" for just a bit. I know I am going to love working at home so much better now!!!

What do you think of my new space?
