Welcome to ‘The List‘, a wonderful linky that I cohost with one of my besties the gorgeous Amy from Mr and Mr T Plus Three.
Who can link up? You can link up any post that is a list or that contains a list (by that we mean a couple of bullet points is fine). Recipes, checklists, todo lists are also fine. Posts can be old or new, all welcome and you can also link up to 3 posts.
This week I am linking Get your blogging inspiration – fix #1 and my Little Fierce Ones round-up. Amy is linking up What’s happening with Mr & Mrs T Plus Three and Tefal Cuisine Companion review plus three-course dinner party recipes.
My favourite posts from last week were;
- The Real Military Housewife – From Abstinence to Absinth – The Sex Life of A Military Housewife this is such a funny post. Give it a read, you will not regret it.
- Cardiff Mummy Says – 5 Things I Know As A Mummy of Boys I really enjoyed this post, it pricked at my sentimentality too.
- Confessions of a Crummy Mummy – 10 Signs You’re Turning Into Your Mother I shouldn’t like this post at all because it proved that I am actually already my mother! Yikes! Such a good post though.
I will feature these three posts during the coming week on my Facebook page.
My list;
REAL LIFE
- I had a very sleepy start to the week getting over the previous week’s press trip, over indulgence and late nights had really caught up with me.
- I have started training for the Full Moon Walk (26.2 miles! Yikes!). I know it will cripple me considering my back issues, but there is no greater incentive than to help people with breast cancer.
- Baby has gone back to being clingy at nursery drop offs, which is a little weird.
BLOG & SOCIAL MEDIA
- I passed 15,000 followers on Twitter.
- I secured the highest fee yet for a single blog post.
- Had great results with a couple of counter pitches this week.
- With nearly the first month of 2016 done, my follower goals are looking healthy.
Pinterest – 2,648 achieved (aiming for 2,701) – Must try harder!
Facebook – 5,316 achieved (aiming for 5,208)
Instagram – 5,191 achieved (aiming for 4,665)
Twitter – 15,088 achieved (aiming for 14,958)
- My most popular blog post this week was; How to organise your blog like a pro
- My own favourite post this week was; My post about the awesome press trip I went on with Bridgestone.
- Reviews I have shared: Creative Writing course with NCC Home Learning.

I’ve got a bit of catching up to do – I can’t wait to read about your press trip! I hope baby gets back to happy drop offs at nursery soon x
Joining up for the first time in a while. Your follower stats are very healthy and your comment about a moonwalk has inspired me to search out some kind of fitness challenge to sign up to after baby number three is here. Thanks 🙂

Wow, go you! Good luck with the walk! Baby Girl get’s really clingy when she goes to nursery too, even though she’s not normally at all. She’s had a break for a couple of months and is back next week, so I’m hoping she will be OK! Have a great weekend x
Hello! Really impressive numbers for all your followers. I had the slightly less impressive goal of reaching 100 Twitter followers by the end of the month (very new to all this social media stuff!) But I reached it (currently on 106!!) so that’s pretty nice. Cool to be linking up with the list again, thanks for hosting x
Wow. You’ve got a tonne of Mums (collective noun?!?) who follow you. Well done. You’re nailing this parent blogger malarkey! x
Hi! Gosh, I can only dream of achieving the same number of followers as you! Thank you for hosting #thelist.

Wow! How do you get those social media stats?! Well done! Maybe a post on how to grow your blog would be a good idea? Would love some tips!
