5 Minutes for Mom Ultimate Blog Party–party on, moms!
freshly baked is excited to be a part of 5 Minutes for Mom’s third annual Ultimate Blog Party. We did this last year and had a blast, so of course we’re back for more. Plus in today’s economy, a virtual party means no need to purchase a new party outfit (with matching heels, of course) and pay for a babysitter. We love saving money!
Though this post doesn’t have an awesome video or slideshow, it’s not because we wouldn’t love to do something so nifty. It’s more that we couldn’t find the time between wiping snotty noses, driving carpool, doing umpteen loads of laundry and oh yeah, taking a shower. But to spice this post up a little bit I did include a photo from when this mom took five minutes (it was more like 120 minutes) for a really fun photo shoot for her stylist’s portfolio. See? I’m not always blogging in my pj’s! And of course I couldn’t leave out my amazingly beautiful BFF and business partner LeShan. And yes, she looks this good even in her pj’s!
We’re 2 moms with 8 children between us ranging in ages from 1 1/2 to 11. That 8 is made up of 5 girls, 3 boys and a 1 set of twins. That number does not include our husbands, though we often think it should. LeShan and I started our company, georgie tees, in June of 2005 and have had a great time growing the business. LeShan is a fabulous ballet teacher and I’m sure I’m good at something…as a result we have quite a few other projects in the works and just announced we are looing for a new owner for our baby (aka georgie tees). (For more information you can read our post on the sale here.)
Our blog has a mix of everything: mompreneur tips, health and fitness guides, fashion trends, recipes and sites we love. Feel free to browse all you like; we’d love it even more if you comment. If you leave us a comment on this post, please include a link to your blog or site if you have one so we can come on over to party with you! Party on, moms! It’s 5 Minutes for Mom’s Ultimate Blog Party! –Emily

Hi, I’m blog hopping from the UBP. You have a fabulous blog and even cuter tees! The maternity ones make me wish I was preggers again so I can buy them, but I’m sure that urge will pass, ha! I think every woman should stick to the Diet Coke and chocolate diet, and on the really tough days just go for the Coke. Have fun at the party!
