I was recently incredibly honored to be featured on Be @Home's Best Of The Web segment! This is awesome, and is great encouragement to keep on blogging, even when sometimes it is easy to get discouraged. This is a fairly new blog, and I am learning more and more everyday, and it was wonderful to see that I'm doing something right. While I am not a new blogger, as I had a pregnancy blog before, I am fairly new to the review and giveaway arena. (My old blog was mostly for personal use and to keep family and friends updated on my high-risk pregnancy.) Blogging can be quite challenging, especially for newer bloggers, and mistakes are made along the way. I was absolutely thrilled to be recognized on such a wonderful site, and I will continue to do my best to provide engaging and honest content for my readers and hopefully continue to learn and grow along the way!
Also, I wanted to say a quick word regarding giveaway entries. I am now using Rafflecopter forms exclusively for your convenience. When entering giveaways, I require ONE mandatory comment entry. PLEASE follow the instructions for the comment, or your entries will be disqualified. Generally, I will ask you to visit my sponsor's website and tell me another product that interests you or something you have learned. I can tell if you do not do this, and generic comments like "I like this" or "I want to win this" will NOT be counted. My sponsors are very generously offering a product for giveaway, and it is not too much to ask to go take a look at their site to see what they have to offer. Therefore, unless this mandatory entry is completed, your entries WILL NOT COUNT. Also, when using Rafflecopter, there is a space for voting, subscribing, entering other giveaways, etc...Any additional info, such as which giveaway has entered, can be submitted in the "More information" section of the Rafflecopter form under that particular entry method. There is no need to leave multiple comments on the blog post. These entries WILL NOT COUNT. I draw winners using Rafflecopter, not from my comments. (Although I WILL verify that the mandatory comment entry has been properly completed.) If you have any questions regarding proper procedure, please contact me and I will be happy to help! Now go enter some giveaways!

Just as an FYI, you may wanna reword your rafflecopter - I was following the instructions you just gave until the last couple of giveaways, i noticed for the giveaways entered, the rafflecoptor instructions say "list in comments below" which is why i've started putting the list in both places! Thanks for letting us know though! It was just a little confusing. Maybe should say "list giveawys in More Information section". Thanks for all the great giveaways! (and for the easy rafflecoptor forms!)

Thanks so much for pointing that out! I will have to go back and change the wording. I want my giveaways to be as easy as possible to enter. I have entered many, many giveaways myself, and I hate having to comment over and over again. I just wanted to point out it's not necessary to save you all time! :)

Thanks for clearing that up. I also thought that everything had to be listed in the comment section.It will be much easier and faster now! Congrats on the Best of the Web!
