The Mom Crowd

It’s still not too late to email us your pumpkin patch photos! We will be posting our collection of pumpkins and munchkins tomorrow. Email your photos to pictures [at] themomcrowd.com.

I have been so excited to see pumpkin patches set up as I drive around town. It’s always a great photo opportunity and we’d love for you to share your cutest pumpkin patch photos of your kids.

Please submit your pictures by Thursday evening by emailing the photo in a jpeg format to pictures [at] themomcrowd.com. We will be posting the cute pumpkin patch photos next Friday for your drooling pleasure!

When McKenna and I announced the launch of our new website we mentioned that everyone who leaves a comment would be entered to win a fun prize.

We did our random drawing this morning and drum roll please… a big Congratulations goes to our winner, Kathy! Kathy has won a Starbucks gift card.

Thank you to everyone who entered! Keep those comments coming. We love hearing from you!

The Mom Crowd is a blog community of moms and moms-to-be who value each other’s experiences. It is not easy being pregnant and being a new mom. There is so much to learn, so much to prepare, all the while your body and hormones are spinning out of control. My hope is that you will be encouraged through the articles and friends that you find here.

The idea for The Mom Crowd all started with a suggestion from my husband. He mentioned in passing that I should start a blog for moms. Personally the idea of a blog where I could unabashedly be a mom and be proud of it grabbed me. There have been times when I felt embarrassed being pregnant or having my child with me. This site is a haven for all things mom related, a place to cheer each other on.

I thought about who has been the biggest Mom Cheerleader in my life and immediately thought of my friend, McKenna. I absolutely love her and have appreciated all the encouragement and advice she has given me. I knew McKenna before she was pregnant with her first child. I have had the privilege of watching her walk with amazing grace through difficult health issues with her two beautiful children. I am proud that McKenna will be a contributing author for The Mom Crowd.

There are exciting surprises in the works. I hope you will stick around, learn something new, be confirmed that you are normal, discuss hot topics, find a tip that makes your life easier, and most of all find community.

Grab a seat on the branch and join us!
