NAME CHANGE ALERT!!!!!!!!
Nothing huge, everything remains the same, besides the name!
I started my blog right after my son was born and both kids were still in diapers. I don’t know if “started” is the best word. I created the account and then completely forgot about it until this past March.
NOW I am hooked, addicted, in love. Blogging is such an amazing thing; I do not see myself backing down anytime soon. Hence, the name change.
“Dirty diapers” will be obsolete around my place in about a year from now (fingers crossed), and what sense would the title make then? I wanted to go with something I could keep for the next, say 16 years if I so choose.
MomLife Now
It is a place where I can open up about EACH stage of motherhood.
It is an expression of seeing the miraculous beauty around me right NOW in this adventure called “Mommy.”
I will leave you with some of my favorite search engine terms which found themselves across my former name:
“Very dirty kisses and hugs.” Um, our kisses are pretty glitter and peanut butter dirty. Somehow not exactly what I think this individual was leaning towards though.
“Boy hug his gals n cry love.” Yes, we have a lot of crying and hugs over here. Again, probably not the best result for this guy.
“Two shadows holding hands one much larger.” I really have nothing to say for this one.
“Sasha in diaper.” This one was today, and made me feel quite strange. Good thing the name change is now in place. 🙂
ONE LAST THING: For all you wonderful Facebook and twitter supporters, I have had to create new pages with the new name. Hence, I am down to NO followers. 😦
I would be honored if you would take a quick minute to follow me once again on Twitter or Facebook!!!
Happy blogging everyone and thank you for taking the time to read this. I will back to my regular postings shortly!

I noticed your name change yesterday. Those search engine terms that lead people to your blog are pretty interesting. The ones that I get for my blog are pretty straightforward and boring. I’ll try to get you on Facebook soon (right now my FB is temporarily blocked … long story). Take care, Sasha!

As for search terms, I keep thinking there’s a post in there at some stage. I don’t have too many odd ones, but a few that make me laugh. For example, I did a post about French Canadian music a while ago and showed ONE video by a specific artist. There are apparently a number of people out there who want to know if he’s single. I’m tempted to update my blog posting with that answer given I don’t want them to remain uninformed on this obviously important issue…

Thank you friend!! You encouragement means so much to me!! I placed the icon in my widgets section. I do not remember how I actually placed it but I remember it was not difficult. 😉 I think there on instructions on the website itself. Hope you figure it out!!

You’re welcome! And thank you… I did it in the widgets and it’s there, it’s just very far down on my page on the phone at least… on a computer it’s higher up but I just feel like it’s not in a very good place but can’t figure out moving it. I’m not good at all the blogger logistics haha

Sorry to “barge in”, but I wanted to help! All you have to do is drag your text widget to the top and it’ll automatically move it up! You can basically arrange your widgets in the order you want simply by dragging them. I hope this helps and yay for joining TMB!

Oh yay! Thank you!!! I did do that so it shows up higher on the computer, it’s just still at the bottom on my phone but I guess I can’t change that. If I remember I copy and paste one into the bottom of new posts to make it easier, but idk if it’s helping haha. Thanks so much for the recommendation and help! You girls are awesome!
