Welcome to #TheList with myself and my gorgeous co-host, Amy from Mr and Mr T Plus Three. #TheList is THE place to link up your list posts.
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 20 WordPress Plugins you NEED for your blog and 5 Things I couldn’t live without Vlog. Amy is linking up Homemade Easter eggs and Vlog Stars.
Zazzle Giveaway Winner – The winner of our £50 credit giveaway is Sian from The Mama Story.
My favourite posts from last week were;
- Reasons my toddler is not asleep – Toilets aren’t for Turtles – Another super funny post from Mumma McD and I totally feel her pain!
- Travel goals we all need to have – Reflections from Me – I really enjoyed this post from Mac, very inspiring. We really should make the most of what we have at our disposal.
- Stumble Upon: The Blogger’s Guide – My Random Musings – What a fabulous post and a must read for any blogger who is looking to increase their blog traffic.
I will feature these three posts during the coming week on my Facebook page.
My list;
REAL LIFE
- Baby was sick every hour through the night on Sunday night and then again on Tuesday morning, so has been off nursery.
- Our garden fence blew down and I didn’t realise until after I had let the dogs out. Picture me running round in the rain (no coat) trying to catch two errant dogs!
- I had a lovely Mother’s Day and got the most thoughtful gift from Mr Hubby, The Little Bag of Happiness by LeeLu.
BLOG & SOCIAL MEDIA
Here’s this weeks #BogFixFriday this week discussing nofollow/nofollow links. (ha ha excuse the face it won’t let me upload thumbnails at the moment!
- My March Britmums Newbie Round-up post went live.
- My Klout had stayed solid at 80 for 3 weeks now, it used to drop to 75 on a Sunday and go back to 80 on Tuesday (randomly).
- I dropped to #28 in the Tots100 rankings (from 15). I have no idea what more I could do, so need to start focusing on Tots100 not being the thing which can make or break my month.
- I am currently standing solid at #2 in the Parent Blogger leaderboard due to the new entry of an American blogger with a huge following.
- I have been trying to get ahead as we are away on a review trip this weekend, but Baby being ill has made it difficult (poor thing).
- My most popular blog post this week was; Giveaways and #TheList aside it was How to curate your Instagram feed.
- My own favourite post this week was; My Face Painting Dream
- Giveaways I have shared: Hotel Chocolat Easter Egg

Sorry to hear Baby hasn’t been well. Tin Box Tot had s horrible ear infection a few weeks ago – she’s hardly ever got more than a runny nose and it really threw me. Thanks so much for doing the follow/no follow blog fix – I can’t wait to watch! Have a great trip this weekend x
Hope baby is better now. Really great explanation of follow and non follow. I get approached by so many companies wasting the follow. At the moment I am saying no. It’s a tricky one though! There is a list in my post today, eventually! x
A review weekend sounds fun! Hope baby gets well!
Sorry Baby has been ill, Mabel has had a cold this week too. I had a phone all from preschool on Thursday to say that she wasn’t herself and was crying for me which just broke my heart. Enjoy your trip away, are you going to have a screen free weekend?
Aww I hope Baby is much much better now so hard for you all when the minis are poorly 🙁 x x
Thanks for hosting #thelist. Hope your little one is feeling much better now X
I hope Baby is feeling much better ready for a fun weekend and you all have a good time! x
Hope Baby is feeling better and you all have a lovely weekend! I am off to watch the blogfix video! xx
Poor baby, hope she is better. I didn’t realise the parent blogger group included american bloggers. Off to watch your video. Thanks for hosting.
Done exactly this dog thing. We moved to a place with part brick wall which has made this less of an issue these days.
Sorry Baby has been ill! We’ve all been ill this week as well 🙁 I hope you’re all feeling well for your weekend away!!
Poor you and poor Baby. It is tough when they are ill, isn’t it? And the dogs – oh dear. Everything always seems to go wrong at once.
I hope you have a fab, relaxing break Aby!

Hope baby is better now! We are all feeling a bit rotten here as well 🙁 Thanks for hosting xx
I love love love that you’ve taken your blog advice to YouTube. I’m a subscriber! You are an amazing blogger and have so many impressive achievements. Don’t let the Tots score get you down x
Hope the baby is all better now! Thanks for hosting x
It’s hard not to be affected by your Tots 100 ranking isn’t it! But I bet you’ll go up again another monthx #thelist
Hope Baby is much better now – it is so horrible when little ones are poorly 🙁 The follow/no follow is very useful, so thanks for that 🙂 Have a great weekend.
Hope your little one feels better soon. Glad you had a nice Mother’s Day 🙂
Sorry to hear Baby has been ill. There’s so much sickness going around. My youngest was sick every hour for the first night we were in Paris (leaving my mum to deal with it!) Thanks for hosting. x
Sorry to hear Baby has been poorly, theres definitely a lot of bugs going round at the moment. The sickness one has hit our Toddler today and its horrid so see them so helpless. I hope Baby is feeling herself again now. Thanks for hosting #TheList and thanks for another really useful #BlogFixFriday x
Oh it’s horrible when they catch a nasty stomach bug isn’t it? I hope Baby is feeling better now & you managed to avoid catching it too. Thank you for hosting #TheList 🙂
Poor Baby – hope she’s better soon! Thanks for hosting! #thelist
