UBP12!- April 14, 2012
Okay readers, I’m in a “bloggy mood.” You know, I’m just ready to meet new bloggers and find some new favorites to read. I was psyched to learn about this year’s Ultimate Blog Party. I’m in! (I’m a little behind. Forgive my tardiness on this post. I know most of you had these done Friday.)
If you’re new here, I’m Amy and I’ve been blogging since 2010 when I got pregnant. I knew a lot of women had pregnancy blogs so I worried I wasn’t really pregnant in the 21st century if I didn’t chronical every bout of nausea and fetal kick on the Internet. I kid. I kid. I started it really so I would remember everything about my first pregnancy and child birth. I had no idea this would turn from a hobby to a passion and allow me to meet some awesome people! It’s become my daughter’s baby book in a way because God knows I’ll never get around to making one of those.
A little about me… I’m owning the fact that I’m 30 years old. (Dirty 30! Woop! Woop!) I just started a new career in public relations after eight years in television news. I was a reporter for the last four and ready for a change. Here’s the story. I may be the luckiest woman in history with my 4 1/2 hour childbirth. Of course that was after more agonizing over baby names than has ever been necessary.
So let’s get the party started bloggers! You’ll find me on Twitter @SomebodysParent and this party gave me an excuse to do something I had been putting off. I made a Facebook page for the blog. I would appreciate a “like” so I don’t look like a friendless/fanless sap. Thanks! Let me know if you’re going to BlogHer 12 this year. I’m PSYCHED to be going with her, her, her and her.
Happy blogging!

















Just stopping by via the UBC. Nice to meet you
Hey! Nice to meet you too! I just went by your pretty little space on the Internet. Have a great UBP!
4 1/2 hour childbirth!? Tell me your secrets!
Pitocin! I know, haters be hatin’ but I was past my due date and ready to have that baby. By the way, I just commented on your blog but I’m afraid I did it in my husband’s Google account. Ha! Sorry! Welcome Katie! Nice to meet you!
Stopping by from the party and I’m so glad I found your blog! I started mine while I was pregnant too! And I also graduated with a degree in television news! BUT I haven’t taken the big step and apply to any stations because I don’t want it to interfere with being a mommy. It’s hard work! I’m about to read your story now! I’m excited to start following along
Hey Josie! Ah! Another TV news gal! Awesome! So nice to meet you! Yeah, I quit partly because it interrupted motherhood. Would you consider finding a news job when your kids get older?
Stopping by from the UBP! I’m your newest follower and can’t wait to “get to know you better!”
