My Top Ten Mummy Blogs – Perfect Bedtime Reading…

August31

My blogroll is looking a bit sorry for itself so I added some of the Mummy blogs I’ve been reading lately, usually in bed when I’m winding down the day! Luverly hubby Dan explained RSS readers to me and got me all set up. I’m hopeless – so it’s very handy to have a IT wizard for a husband, he’s even set up his own web design business (Aleck’s Dad) he’s so good!

I’ve been seeking out interesting reads and adding them to my Google Reader and now I’m adding them to my links on here. If you are in my top ten (or even if you are not!) it would be fabulous if you could add my blog to your links too – to help my attempt to get my little old two year old blog out and about in adult society !!

1. Violet Posy is a gorgeously presented blog by Liz in East Anglia. If you like shabby chic and vintage as I much do (see Bonne Vintage for evidence!) then check out Violet Posy.

2. Jo Beaufoix, aka Like Kate Moss but Not writes a quirky blog about the ups and downs of being a newly single mum with two little girls.

3. Sally Whittle, freelance journalist and blogger, author of the Tots100 index of parenting blogs writes Who’s The Mummy. I love this blog, it’s funny, informative and interesting and has a really lovely logo!

4. Not a Mummy but a wonderful Daddy, Ian writes Single Parent Dad about his four year journey raising Max on his own since his wife died when Max was a baby. Sometimes it makes me cry, sometimes it makes me smile. A good bedtime read.

5. Dulwich Mum is an amusing read…our heroine is a late thirty something Dulwich mum with two small children living in leafy Dulwich, south east London.

6. Melissa Talago shows it is possible to step away from the laundry pile and the school runs every now and then and make something happen just for you. Read about Melissa’s sailing challenge in More to Life Than Laundry.

7. Are we nearly there yet mummy? is a fantastic blog written by zany crazy Laura. Loving this one.

8. Tara has been talking mumbo jumbo since 2002 on the Sticky Fingers blog. A great read.

9. Millenium Housewife is in the middle of the Midlands in the middle of her life in the middle of one husband, two children and a dog called Twizzle!

10. And finally, my best friend Marieke Napier is writing her own blog up in Wiltshire. Ramblings of a Remote Worker is not really a mummy blog – but Marieke is a mummy and it’s a blog so try it and see. Marieke has been recently shortlisted for a Remote worker Award.

Keep up the good work everyone!

    I bet you’re excited Melissa, I love reading your blog as it reminds me of the challenge I did last September. I walked up the highest mountain in North Africa, and here’s my blog all about preparing for it. http://www.tishtashtoys.com/trekmorocco/?cat=6

    First of all…I NEARLY had this blog application for mine. It looks fab!
    Second, my other half has just sorted my RSS reader for me too and it looks like we’re reading almost all the same blogs!

    Thankyou so much for that! I haven’t read you before but will spend a few happy hours catching up once I’m back from sunny LA trying to bump into Brad Pitt. It’s a full time job I tell you.
