Thank you to everyone who entered the contest! I bought a pass and it turns out that I won’t be able to go. I am very glad that I am able to pass it on to another woman who will enjoy the conference.
The Mom Crowd is giving away a free full conference pass to the BlogHer Conference in San Francisco this July 18-20. This pass is valued at $348!
What’s the catch? All that we ask is that you write up a guest blog post for The Mom Crowd about your experience and what you learned at the conference. The guest post will need to be submitted within a week of the conference ending. Also, all blog posts are better with a photo, right? You can also share a favorite photo from the conference.
Sounds awesome, how do I enter to win? All you need to do to enter to win is leave a comment in the comment section with a short description of your blog and a link to it. You enter to win a free pass and you get to promote your own blog. How super is that? Please include your email address when you fill out the comment form so we can contact you.
You have until Friday, June 6th, at 10:00 p.m. Central time to enter. The winner will be chosen at random and announced on Saturday morning.
The Mom Crowd is proud to announce the very first episode of our video podcast, ‘The Mom Crowd Show’. On ‘The Mom Crowd Show’ McKenna and I (Amanda) discuss articles from this blog, share enlightening interviews and how-to’s from our friends, and highlight our favorite websites.
We had a lot fun filming and we still have A LOT to learn. I realized that I pronounce things weird sometimes. For example, instead of pronouncing Graco like “Gray-Co” I say “Grek-ko.” Please let us know what you think in the comments section. Also, be sure to check out the credits!
SHOW NOTES
The Mom Crowd Show Ep. 1! Labor Tips, First Birthday Parties, and the Baby Expo

The Barenaked Ladies recently came out with a new children’s album called, “Snack Time.” You can download their song, “789″ for free here.
If you are traveling this weekend: Be careful and stay safe! If you are having a StayVacation (according to Good Morning America) at home: Have lots of fun! Remember to put on loads of sun screen.
Check back on Monday for an exciting announcement here at The Mom Crowd!
UPDATE:
My pastor preached about remembering the Sabbath this morning at church. So my husband and I took the day off today. Our video podcast, “The Mom Crowd Show” will be debuting on Tuesday, instead of Monday. Which is fine, because hopefully most of you will be off with your family and bar-b-que-ing tomorrow! Happy Memorial Day!
