Welcome to ‘The List‘, the place to link up all your list posts. The idea is simple, link up any post that is in list/bullet point format (a few bullet points in a post is fine too!). I use mine to record my weekly highlights, but yours could be a ‘top ten’ list or anything you fancy. Posts can be old or new, all welcome.
Sadly, it is Hannah’s last day as my co-host. We have had such fun over the last 65 weeks and are both really proud of #TheList community. It has been a blast working with her on this linky and we have gone from acquaintances to best friends over the sixty five weeks. She is such a fab person to work with and I hope her move gives her more time to explore all the things she loves. She will be missed. Lots of love my darling.
Next week, the gorgeous Amy from Mr and Mrs T Plus Three will be my new co-host and we are excited to work together on another project. Check the bottom of this post for the new badge (Amy will have her own version next week too, if you’re linking up on her blog).
This week #TheList is sponsored by Zazzle, The Make Engine™. Zazzle’s mission is to give anyone, anywhere the power to make anything imaginable. Their products let you add your personal touch with their vast options to customise. They have an ever-expanding array of products from cards, clothing, wall art to mugs, watches and business cards and are committed to offering the highest quality custom products in the world.
Zazzle have kindly given us a £50 voucher to spend in their online shop to give away to one lucky lister! I will use a random number generator to pick the winner when the link up closes next Thursday and we will let you know how the winner is on next week’s #TheList. Good luck!
This week, I am linking my week three round-up of #LittleFierceOnes and Christmas gift guide for little ones. Hannah is sharing Our Christmas Advent Box and Christmas 2013, presents for little one.
So next week you will be able to link up either here, on my blog or over at Amy’s blog.
My favourite posts from last week were;
- Doctomum – The alternative yet ultimate baby’s gift guide such a funny post.
- The Butterfly Mother – Then and Now, such a lovely and well written post.
- Mudpie Friday – DIY Beer Advent calendar which was such an amazing idea. I have done it for Mr Hubby.
Now time for my list;
REAL LIFE
- It is Baby’s first Nativity this morning! Can’t wait to watch her.
- We had a couple of great meet ups with friends, including a mid week cavery lunch! Get us!
- Baby’s share pony is lame and we hope she gets better soon. Poor Sali.
- Our house is full of the festive spirit, our tree and decorations are up and we now can’t wait.
BLOG & SOCIAL MEDIA
- I was blown away to find out that ProBlogger had linked to one of my posts. I should probably retire now, as it is bound to be downhill from here.
- Reaching 14,000 Twitter followers!
- Booked a ticket for the Nuffnang Winter Workshop. It looks wonderful.
- I was thrilled to be mentioned as one to follow in Amy’s Instagram round-up on the BritMums blog
- Did some lovely projects this week. Especially making our living/dining space cosy and ready for Christmas with B&Q.
- The best post I read this week: I loved How to up your blogging game by Big Fashionista, so funny.
- My most popular blog post this week was; 15 Awesome Christmas cards you can make with kids.
- My own favourite post this week was; Our trip round the Christmas Carol Trail at Mottisfont, mainly for the lovely pictures I managed to snap.
- New blog discovery: Rosy Cheeks and Muddy Feet, lovely blog, go and check it out.
- Reviews I have shared: Mamas and Papas wooden pram, BHS nightwear, Pines & Needles Christmas.

Hope the Nativity goes well! My decorations still aren’t up as only just got back from a week visiting family so not had a chance yet – it’s upsetting me. We have a really busy weekend but I’m going to have to find time to do it as I want them up! #TheList
