I love blogs... I have pared down my reader considerably, as I kept getting really behind in reading them. These are probably the ones I read first if there's new posts when I sign in.
Jennslyvania - I love her books & started following her blog after I read the first one. She's pretty darn funny.
Pioneer Woman - I'm sure you've heard of her, and her awesomeness. Love love love PW.
Mama's Losin' It - A Mommy blogger. She's pretty funny. I get a kick out of her stories
Matt Logelin - Such a sad story, but it's been so fun to see Maddy grow up, and happy that Matt has taken such a tragic event, and used his experience & following to help others.
Bakerella - The queen of the Cake Balls/Cake pops. Such cute ideas!
Culinary Concoctions by Peabody - A Seattle Nestie that has some amazing recipes. She would always taunt us by putting delicious photos in her siggy. Made ya wanna lick your screen when she'd post
Wan Life to Live - A MM Nestie. Love her stories & she's pretty darn funny too. She posts a lot of really good recipes as well.
Post Secret - So good, yet sometimes so bad.
Enjoying The Small Things - She is a mom that has two adorable girls. Her baby (who is just a few months old) has Down's Syndrome. She's an amazing photographer & a great writer.
Cake Wrecks - So funny & I love the commentary!
This is my favorite inspiring blog.
It's a mother of two (a 3 year old, and a baby born in Jan with D.S.). She has an awesome outlook on life, and she is also a really great photographer. And she just always manages to make super small things in life seem so magical and wonderful, and just like the perfect life (even though I'm sure it isn't). But it doesn't come off as fake perfect - just that she loves her life and her family and is hell bent on focusing on the best parts of life. I love her attitude and her outlook on life. And I always leave her blog feeling happy about my own. And she also seriously inspires me in the whole journaling about your child's life and experiences through words and photos. Anyway, I LOVE her blog. And it always makes me happy.

And this blog is my favorite blog for entertainment purposes. HI-larious. Seriously. I laugh so much I cry when I read most of them. I suggest going through her old blogs when you have time. In particular, I love: "Geese are f**king dangerous", "How a Fish Almost Destroyed My Childhood", "Battle with Survivor Spider", "I'm Definitely Not Dead", "The Alot is Better Than You at Everything", "How a Sandwich Makes You Its B**ch in 11 Steps" and a whole bunch more. lol Seriously, this blog is just made of awesome.

And I need to get permission from my friend to share the link, but my friend Kate has an amazing blog that I love for all the reasons I stated about the first blog (total love for her kids, and a way to portray motherhood in a realistic way as funny, lovely, and focusing on all the little moments that make her happy. Plus, she has this beautiful way with words that always makes me smile and leave her blog feeling inspired.
