My Two Year Blogoversary! Thank You!

Sharing is caring!

Some days it feels as though I’ve been blogging for a decade. And maybe in blogging years I have. But now that I’ve made it to two years I can’t help but reflect on how far I’ve come. I never imagined that my blog would turn into something that gives such a great way to connect with others.

I’d love to move towards less reviews and giveaways and have more content but I’ve also been saying that for the past year. Sometimes it is hard to move away from what seems to be working.

It would be very helpful to know what makes you come back to see me at Baby Loving Mama. Are you mostly here for the giveaways or do you enjoy the personal content that I try to include? Are you interested to know me more as a person? Would you like more informational posts? I’d like to have more focus on this blog but I also don’t want to alienate you, my readers, so feedback would be very much appreciated!

And to say thank you, I’d like to give my readers a small luxury in life. If you are like me you need your caffeine fix, what better way to give you a treat than a Starbucks gift card? I will not be marketing this giveaway in any way. Instead, I’d like to keep it for you, my loyal readers who have taken the time to read this post!

    Happy Blogoversary! Two years is quite an accompishment. I enjoy reading your blog for the variety. Of course, I like the reviews and giveaways. I also like the tips and info you post. The only thing I don’t like is having to wait to post comments or else I get a “you’re posting too fast” remark. But it’s not so annoying I don’t come back. Thanks.

    Happy Blogoversary! The reason I visit your blog is that I know you always write a A++ review, and you offer ome great gifts to win to your readers. I especially like when you have food reviews . You take the time to write such an awesome post, and you always include suc h awesome pics which I adore. I feel like I know our family too. All I can say is I wish I was at your house for superbowl Sunday.. I bet you cooked up a storm??? I wish you the best of luck no matter what you choose to do. As always, I will continue to keep coming back. I’m new to blogging myself, and I can ony hope to be as successful as you are someday.

    I think you should do what makes you happy, afterall, that’s what really makes a great blog…the passion behind the writing/content. 🙂 Happy Anniversary!

    Congrats on the anniversary! I enjoy following your blog 🙂 I am a sucker for giveaways so I like to enter, but your recipes and cooking posts are great, too, and so are personal posts.

    Congratulations! Happy Blogversary! I drop by your blog almost every weekday to check out your reviews and giveaways and pictures of your kids and yummy baked goods! I think you have a good balance of content and reviews/giveaways.

    Happy Blogiversary!!! I think you do a great job and I enjoy the diversity of posts you share! If I had any suggestions, I would just say that it would be nice not to have the time limits between comments. That “you’re posting too fast” gets a bit old sometimes and I would probably enter more giveaways if that was removed. But aside from that one little thing, I would say you do a fantastic job!

    Happy Blogoversary!!! Congratulations!

    I am struggling with the same questions right now with my blog. What to do? I found your blog back when I had time to enter giveaways, but I have enjoyed reading your personal posts too. I say stick with what you are doing and do some of both…the giveaways might get the readers, but the personal stuff keeps them. 😀

    I really enjoy the site. You have a great balance in what you post. I relate the baby with the bowl on his head to you, but I’m guessing at some point that may go. I also like that it’s not all cluttered with stuff, like my sites are!!

    Happy blogoversary!

    Happy Blogversary! Wow, 2 years! That is wonderful. Obviously I like the giveaways when I have the time to enter them.

    I love your personal posts and the recipes. I actually read those the most often. I read the giveaway posts if I think that I will have the time to enter. Just keep posting!

    I like it all. I like learning about new products that are creative. I may not be in the market for them but I have let others know about them. I like the posts about the kids the most though!! (I am one of their aunts after all). Happy blogoversary!

    Honestly the giveaways are the draw. That is how I found your site. Having said that, I love getting to know the author of a blog. Sometimes I learn and gain so much from their experiences or funny stories. Some are so talented and creative that they have inspired me. How about a few enticing giveaways and more content.
