Liebster Award

I am proud to announce that I have been nominated for the Liebster Award by my fellow mom-to-be, Erikka, over at Lil' Babe Henretta!

I've thoroughly enjoyed following Errika's blog; from stalking photos of her photogenic Soft-Coated Wheaten terrier, Murphy, who reminds me of my own Charlie, to keeping track of her pregnancy.  In fact, she was my inspiration for my weekly pregnancy blog updates.  Erikka, you have such a sweet spirit, and I appreciate the encouragement you have given me through your thoughtful comments. 

If you are not familiar with the Liebster Award, it is given to fairly new blogs with 200 or less followers.  This is a way of giving recognition to bloggers for a job well done.  It brings undiscovered blogs to the light and helps them gain exposure to attract more followers.  If you receive a Liebster, the person giving it to you is basically saying, "Hey, YOU ROCK!"

Being nominated for a Liebster comes with a few guidelines...

1. Thank your Liebster Blog Award presenter on your blog
2. You must link back to the blogger who presented the award to you
3. Copy and paste the blog award on your blog
4. Present the liebster Blog Award to 5 blogs you think deserve some recognition. (Remember, they have to have 200 followers or less when presented with a Liebster!)
5. Make sure you let the bloggers you nominated know they have a Liebster! (Leave a comment on their blog, DM on twitter, Facebook post--however you normally get in contact with them!)

Without further ado, here are my five nominations for who I think deserve a Liebster Award of their own!  I enjoy reading these blogs and believe they deserve a little extra attention.  Please follow them and show your support.  In no particular order, the nominees are... 

1. Mrsz2008 at My Babe, More Precious is to Me
2. Megan at One Emerald
3. Kikimonster at The Anatomy of a Nervous Breakdown
4. Elizabeth at The Ramblings of a Wannabe 
5. Cristi at Weeds to Wishes
