When I first started documenting the life of our itty bitty girl 21 months ago, I would have never thought that anyone outside of our close family and friends would visit Gracen’s little corner of the internet. And they didn’t. At least not for the first year and a bit. At the time, I was using iWeb and my blog was unsearchable, which kept it under the radar for a long time. But that all changed 5 months ago when we made the switch over to WordPress {a switch that is still in progress as posts pre-December 2011 are yet to have accompanying photos}. Slowly, this little blog of mine started gaining readers.
I must admit, in the beginning it felt very strange. I remember saying to Brad, “I just don’t get why a stranger would want to read my blog. All I do is post photos of Gracen and talk about our lives.” His response was, “Aren’t most of your favourite mommy blogs just about people’s lives?” Touché.
That being said, Mama.Papa.Bubba. reached 100+ followers over the long weekend. Now I know that’s not very many in the blog world. In fact, it’s nothing really. Most of the mommy blogs I loyally follow have hundreds upon hundreds of followers, if not thousands. But when it comes down to it, I’m a Kindergarten teacher at heart and 100 is an extremely big thing in Kindergarten (is there anything more exciting than 100 day?! I think not.)
So in honour of 100+ followers, I figured we’d celebrate with a little giveaway from my very own Etsy shop, Littlest Lulu. The winner will receive a set of personalized baby blocks, handcrafted in a theme and/or colours of their choice {similar to the ones below}.
