Vote for BabySteals.com at Startup Nation!

I'm not much for contests, especially popularity ones. However, PUH-LEASE vote for me at Startup Nation! You can vote once per day, and it will really help get some extra publicity for BabySteals (and me). I figure after as many 3am nights I've pulled in the last year, I should at least sign myself up for some contest.

Go here, and vote! And thank you!

NieNie Dialogues

If you're ever feeling sorry for yourself, don't. Read NieNie's blog, and you'll feel guilty you ever had a moment of frustration in whatever situation you're dealing with. A fellow Utahn and Mormon, she is an amazing example of strength and faith. Her and her husband were critically injured in a plane crash in August last year, and she is just now back to blogging while still in the midst of her slow and painful recovery. I can relate in a very small way to her situation, after my terrifying accident on my hand in December of '07. Still to this moment every time I move my finger or touch it on something, it hurts. Not terribly, but it's there. And it's hard not to move your finger. Especially with my job. And it's cold all the time. Freezing, in fact. But NieNie's blog makes having the top of your fingers shredded off with a power saw feel like a paper cut. And once you get hooked on her blog which I know you will, you can add this button also:


You can also follow her recovery here.

Just Me and my 2 Little Chicks

You may have noticed Stephanie's blog on my blog roll below- called Just Me and my 2 Little Chicks. Stephanie is awesome, and I'm completely hooked on her blog. She is a BabySteals customer and that is how I met her! She has the cutest Texan accent ever and her girls are completely darling. Her husband Jimmy has been serving in Afghanistan and has missed the majority of their two little girl's lives. But today, he's coming home for a 2-week R&R! I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to see the reunion photos. Stephanie is a great photographer, a gifted scrapbooker and totally into vintage stuff like me (although I rarely blog about it). Stephanie has a way to blog the day-to-day events of live in an emotional, creative and exciting way. Half the time I end up missing her husband as much as she does! LOL I can't wait to meet her sometime. Anyway, check it out: Just Me and my 2 Little Chicks
