Blogs are my way of keeping up with friends. The funny part about them is I typically have never met (or will I ever) any of the bloggers I follow. I like to enjoy my coffee and catch up on blogs over the weekends. A few months ago I shared my favorite blogs of all types that I read on a daily basis. Today we are going to zero in on my (secret) favorite type of blog…mommy blogs. I recently came across a few new mommy blogs and I NEED to share them with out.
Girl Mom Blogs
Gardner Quad Squad – If you haven’t heard about these adorable little girls, check this blog out! It started out as a blog filled with this couple’s story of infertility. They made national news when their ultrasound video went viral as they discovered that they were having two sets of identical twins. Now they have their own TV show yet still keep their blog up to date.
It’s a Buzz World – Following along the multiples theme, this blog was created to follow the story of America’s first all girl quintuplets. As they are all now home, growing and sharing their lives on TV their blog isn’t quite a priority. It’s still a great way to look back at these super cute little girls as they are growing.
Little Baby Garvin – If you know me, you know that of all blogs I read this one is first on my list. I discovered Little Baby Garvin back when I was pregnant with little man. I loved how she always seemed to have it all together. She is most known for her chalkboard designs she shared each week during her first pregnancy. The blog often made me jealous of her creativity and fun. Then she added two more kids to the mix and the behind the scenes truths came out. It will probably top my list of favorites for a long time.
Mommy Blogs That Focus on Boys
Life Without Pink – Don’t worry girl moms, you can read this one too! While the overall theme is a mom’s guide to raising boys, this blog has tons of ideas for kids of all ages and genders! From DIY to summer fun there are always new and creative ideas to check out.
Dads Change Diapers Too – A funny twist on the mommy blogs but it is true dads do change diapers too! Zach was fellow Rock the Shot Member and has shared his journey of becoming a dad. He doesn’t keep it too up to date anymore but it’s worth a look back.
The Style Files – Formerly full of fashion, The Style Files has turned more into a lifestyle / mommy blog over the last few years with their new addition! Not only can you get some DIY tips and tricks but you can keep up with an adorable little boy while you’re at it!
General Mommy Blogs
Adventures in Babywearing – This was the first mommy blog I discovered, YEARS ago. Long before I had little man or was even married I became a fan! She is formerly of Northwest Indiana and I came across Adventures in Babywearing through the local community on twitter. As her kids have gotten older she continues to document their daily adventures in their new home in the Pacific Northwest.
PB&J – Originally this was a mommy blog focusing on her twin girls. Over the last few years we’ve watched it grow into their entire family of three girls and a boy. Their adventures are fun to watch and the girls have clothes that make even me jealous.
Community Mommy Blogs
Coffee + Crumbs – One of my favorite things about this blog is that it has a number of different authors. You might hear the birth story from one mother and the story of another mother’s struggle with 3 older kids within the same week. It is a nice variety and has a lot of posts for moms in all different walks of life.
Scary Mommy – If you have ever seen more than one post shared from the same blog on Facebook, chances are Scary Mommy had something to do with it. One of the more popular mommy blogs out there, Scary Mommy tells it like it is and doesn’t hold back.

YES!!!! I have loved this blog (obviously) for a few years now. So many times that one post just hits me right when I need it!
Love this! I’ve been a long time follower of Little Baby Garvin (Now Garvin & Co.). I’m going to have to check out your suggestions for boy mamas 😉
No doubt she is my favorite mommy blogger out there. Is it weird that I say I want to be her blog when I grow up? LOL!
Great post idea! I’m definitely going to check these blogs out.

It is pretty interesting how we can have an online world of friends that we have never met!
I have not heard of any of these, although I read more general mom blogs or blogs like my own that are about motherhood struggles 🙂
