A Day in the Life of a Family Blogger

This is the niche of bloggers I want to sit down with a cup of hot chocolate and quiz the most. The mommy bloggers! Of course, many bloggers in other niches are also mothers and in similar situations. Where is the line drawn between blog and family or is it all jumbled together in a mutually beneficial heap of fun and hard work? As a blogger and a mother, this is the reason I started the A Day in the Life of a Blogger series. My curiosity at how a mom and a blogger juggles both roles lead me to teaming up with over 25 bloggers to give you this sneak peek.

A Day in the Life of 25 Bloggers

1. If you live in Utah, Kim of UtahValleyMoms.com, SaltLakeMoms.com, and DavisCountyMoms.com  is a person you want to follow!  She’s my go to girl for events and if there is something fun happening in Utah, I can typically find out more about it on Kim’s web-site or her facebook page.

I had a blast participating in her instagram challenge for Chalk the Block at the Riverwoods last year. Utah Valley Moms doesn’t just tell you about the events, they give you great tips, too! I’ve always been too scared of the crowds on free zoo day so I was thrilled when Kim posted a video of the crowds to her instagram. Shhh … best time to go is in the morning!

Kim is one of the first bloggers I talked to about balancing mom/blog responsibilities while we were carpooling to an event. Not only does she give you an indepth look into her day, there’s a video, too! Find out what meal of the day Kim and I feel absolutely the same about and how she keeps her social media running smoothly throughout the day here.

4. This next  blogger is one of my good friends and we just so happen to be related! I am excited to introduce you to Heidi of  A Lively Hope. Heidi and I are second cousins who grew up going to family gatherings together, but lost touch a little in our teenage and young adult years. Through our blogs, we have been able to get back in touch and have been able to get together more – I love it! Heidi has so much to offer – she is a homeschooling mom of three with an etsy shop and a blog that details their adventures. Her journey with infertility, foster care, and adoption is a beautiful and inspiring read. See what a creative and family-filled day looks like for Heidi here. This is one mom I look to for modeling my families day!

6. KT from The Proverbial House says so well what so many moms and bloggers feel. We’ve got big plans, but we don’t want to miss the precious moments of childhood either. I like what she shared about her schedule – she sets certain tasks that must happen each day. I tend to do this as well – tasks to accomplish works better for me than time slots. Click on the link or picture above to read her poignant thoughts and see her day!
