The 1st Monday of every month Blessed Nest, B.Y.O.G. and Eli's Lids will be hosting a giveaway. Last month our friends at B.Y.O.G were hosting and giving away one of their beautiful Maternity gowns!

If you missed it don't worry, we're at it again!

                 $75.00 cash

We created MoMday Morning to serve, love & nurture mom bloggers, the women/men who support them, & their readers. Why not have something to look forward to on Monday morning? You don't have to be a Mom or write a blog to enter.
   Grab your coffee, sit back and watch the video with all the scoop here

It's labor day! Why does that make me think of labor pain? Maybe because the joyous experience of giving birth is work or maybe it's because we all make baby products everyday!  B.Y.O.G is known for their amazing labor and delivery gowns. Eli's Lids have creative Lids for baby on up and you know us at Blessed Nest for our Nesting Pillow great for breastfeeding, resting your head or your lap top. We work hard every day to give you the best of us and the best of the world around YOU!

MOMday is our way of giving back to you, the blog community! Thank you for giving us your best everyday.

Good MOMday Morning! 

Welcome to MOMday Morning June!

So, here you are at the party but not sure what we are celebrating? What is MOMday Morning?

The 1st MOMday (Monday) of each month  B.Y.O.G, Eli's Lids & Blessed Nest will be hosting a giveaway.

Last month our friend Kara- Noel hosted the launch of MOMday Morning! It was a wonderful party. If you missed it, don't worry, we celebrate every Month!

Please take a minute to party with us and see what we are all about. Kara-Noel is too cute so go ahead...take a peek!

Now, meet some of our friends at the party!

This is a big party. There are a lot of people to get to know and gifts to share, so you'll be glad you stayed until the end!

As we've said before, we love the blogging community! Throughout the years, Mom bloggers have loved, nurtured and supported us. We love telling you who has impacted us and why you need to get to know them too!

Our MOMblogger in the spotlight:

Meet Shannon from Rocks In My Dryer

Heather and Shannon are friends in real life and I hope to have the honor and joy of meeting her one day too! I've enjoyed Shannon's blog for years.

Shannon has taken a bit of a break from regular blogging, but it's not hard to spend hours laughing and crying through her archives (we've both done it!). Read about all of the plates she has a -spinnin' and go tell her you need to hear more from the "creaky old blogger who may not write nearly as often as she used to." (Her words, not mine) yeh, whatever Shannon. We need all the wisdom and humor we can get from amazing women like you!

 Community in the spotlight:

It's Father's Day month so we had to tell you about one of our favorite dad bloggers! Meet Graham at Tumblon! Heather met Graham through one of her NYC groups, and he has become a great friend to both of us (& to Blessed Nest!).

Tumblon helps parents understand and nurture their children's growth by informing and inspiring them to engage in the joys of parenting. It's such an extraordinary concept, you just have to check it out!

 It's not a party without gifts and party favors, right?

1 person will win this gift package!

Commissioned Art, Nesting Pillow & CASH! (cha ching!)

WOW, meet this amazing dad! Joshua Sierk. He's a musician who draws, paints & makes stuff. And you guessed it, he's Heather's friend...

and he brought the best gift to the party! He is giving YOU a chance to win an original piece of art, commissioned just for MOMday Morning! (you may remember the Mother's Day gift that Heather had Joshua make for me, see it here)

"May your nest be warm and blessed."

 

Another gift for YOU! Enter to win a  Nesting Pillow by BlessedNest.com

Heathers niece, Gracie has amazing parties. At 6 years old, she is my daughter's inspiration for looking outside of herself during her special celebrations! Every year for her birthday, Gracie chooses a charity and asks friends and family to give a donation that Gracie then gets to give to the cause she loves. We hope you will be inspired by Gracie's spirit of generosity and creativity as you check out this great cause...

the mission~from the project 320 water well site

Today I...

Took a shower.
Brushed my teeth.
Filled the coffee pot.
Filled the Christmas tree stand.
Ran the dishwasher.
Ran the washing machine.
Used the toilet.
Washed my hands.
Did some more dishes.
And lots more laundry.
Rinsed salad greens.
Ran baths.
Topped off my iron.
Fed my kids glasses of fresh, clean water.

Water, water, water...

Is it fair that today I whine & worry over trees & toys,
when today 4500 moms just like me are worrying whether their
children will live or die?

Over contaminated water?

When I think about how healthy and safe my family is, I have no worries.
I need nothing.
I am so blessed.

But those other moms need us.
Together, we can relieve some worry.

We donated a Nest Egg....one lucky, giving person won a bundle today!

Enter to win all week. 5 days, 15 bundles, 20 + gifts per bundle WOW!

Love to the moon and back,
