Uh oh. I think I'm getting in a blogging slump again. Maybe I just feel overwhelmed at all the catchup I need to do on all my friends' blogs. {Sorry, I know I owe about a zillion comments}
Oh and the insane urge I have to clean, organize, decorate, freshen up, EVERYTHING in my house. {More on that later}
So anyway, nothing like a good old GIVEAWAY to try to dig me out of the slump.
Here's what I'm giving away:
1. A custom look for your blog. I'll make you a new background and header for your bloggity blog. There are two catches. {1} I only know how to do Blogger updates AND {2} I have to have the password to your account. Before you write me off because of the password thing (because seriously, who would be dumb enough to share their password?!?), I just figured out that you can temporarily change your password for the blog makeover. Literally takes about 30 seconds. So if you win, you can change it for me and then change it back. Capiche?!
2. Some kind of cute Valentine craft/package/something or other. Valentines day is my 2nd favorite holiday (after Christmas) so I've already got some grand plans up my sleeve!
Ok, you have until Friday at midnight to comment! Back to my crazy nesting party!
{Oh and a little disclaimer: if you win and DON'T want a blog makeover, I PROMISE I won't be offended. I'll still send you the Valentines fun!}
THIS JUST IN: My mom is MAKING a cute Valentines craft to be included in the giveaway. Whoever wins is in for such a treat - my mom makes amazing, beautiful things. Just in case you need more motivation to enter :)

And might I say your new blog look is divine! I totally NEED a new blog makeover, mine is tired tired tired and I have not been inspired to do anything about it. And I too love Valentine's Day stuff (that sweet set line at Target is fabulous in a big way, have you seen it? I just bought a couple of the placemats). Good luck with your slump, you are a great blogger and will find your blogging mojo again.
Great new blog look yourself! So I want to know your V-day plans now. Seriously I want to be a good Mom at holidays like you, but planning late just doesn't work for me so well. Share, please. And don't worry about comments on others blogs.
Look at you!! You are always doing fun, creative things. I want a new blog makeover FOR SURE! My header is lacking the newest member of the family and I can't remember for the life of me how to do one!! =) I'm glad you guys had such wonderful holidays! I love matching my girls too! =) Anyway - have a great Wednesday!
i totally get guilt when i'm in a blogging slump too...only i'm not nearly so fun and generous as you! love the look of your blog now - very cute!
Gosh, I just typed a whole big comment and it deleted it...
Anyway, Thanks! I've been feeling the same urge to scour my entire home... you are too kind with your gifts!
Are you kidding?--I would TOTALLY let you make over my blog. Your layouts beat any of the freebies at pyzam or cutest blog on the block. :-D
What fun! I'm nearing my 100th post, and think I might need to do a little give-away on my blog too.
I'm a little jealous that you are feeling so motivated with your house right now. I think I have a full-fledged case of the january blahs. I am so unmotivated to do ANYTHING. sigh...
I have that same urge to clean & organize but I just need to find my roundtuit. My kids rooms are first on the list- with all the new Christmas stuff- some of the old stuff has to go!
Your blog looks great! If you get done at your house and want to do more cleaning/organizing feel free to stop by our house. :)
I would LOVE a blog makeover! What a great idea! Can't wait to see who wins!
ABSOLUTELY count me in!! Your new blog design is SO stylish. I've wondered where you get them...
I totally know what nesting you are going through...me too! I'm a little bummed about it though because I have alot YW calling stuff I have to take care of this month so it'll be hit and miss for my cleaning, organizing, history catch-up. Hopefully the desire won't go away too soon!
Oh, sign me up! I need a blog makeover as badly as I need a personal makeover, which is as badly as my house needs a makeover. :):) Love the blog background--you are so generous! :)
So you are so amazing. I really want to learn how to update my blog. I still need to take my photoshop class. I signed up, I just need to do it. So I am feeling behind on cleaning. Something about January that just makes you want to get really clean. The problem, is getting my bumb in gear to do so. I love you blog and you always inspire me. Have a great day...margo
Are you pregnant?! You said more on your cleaning urge later...does that mean you'll be using your last hook on your stocking board? ;) I feel the need to clean my house because I hosted 2 New Year's parties with about 20 kids at each, plus their parents. I have soda spills on carpets, toys everywhere, etc. etc. I'm also trying to get back on the wagon with my new health plan. I've written a few blog posts about it that I'm almost brave enough to make public. Anyway, if you feel like sending something to FAMILY (blood is thicker than water, j/k) then feel free....anything that comes through your mom's genes is freaking awesome! :)
Seriously? You're joking right? I've even had a couple emails asking if I am pregnant. Oh heck no!!! One can nest without being pregnant, right? No, DEFINITELY NOT PREGNANT (thank goodness!)
You are just too creative! I know how you feel about cleaning, changing re-decorating! I was doing that just yesterday and I'm definately not done! It just feels bare once all the Christmas stuff is taken down!
Your blog looks so cute, Monique! I love that family picture at the top - beautiful! And I did not get an email from you - when did you send it??? I'm still at JRuss544 at hotmail dot com if you want to try sending it again.
Um yeah I agree with everyone's comments. I don't even know you, went to school with the Frosts, so I am not a total stocker, but I think that you are amazing. How could that be when I don't even know you. But for reals, I love to pack in as much as I can in a day and I love to make everything handmade and I too love to blog. I too feel sometimes like I am in a slump, so when I do, I read other people's blog, and then remember that is the fun in blogging. I am for sure not going to be able to able to do all of your fun projects!, but maybe some. And there you go a perfect stranger just figured out for you that it's ok to have a slump! It makes us all feel like you are a normal chica now!! It's good to be a FLY {Finally Loving Yourself} on the wall, that's what blogging is all about for me! Ok I am done with my story.
I love the look of your blog. You are such a creative person. I would love some of your mojo! I think even 1/10 of your creativity could carry me a long way :-)
I always leave your blog vowing to do more holiday fun with my kids. Gotta start thinking about Valentine's Day...
Would love the blog makeover... very cool!
I always nest without being pregnant! LOL. That is funny. ...espeically around holidays and vacations. You are so creative.
Would LOVE to be included in the contest!
You kekep me on gtrack for doing what's most important--in this case, organizing and chuecking unneeded items. You should write a book. I'd buy the first copy. Your new blog page design is terrific!
Mom
hope I am not too late! I am in a slump myself but I am always up for organizational talking! I can't wait to hear more...and I so, so want a blog makeover. Hope I win ;0)
How can I refuse a contest?
Hey Monique,
I'd love a new look for my blog, or any look for that matter. I'm definately not too techno-savy.
You know, a funny thing about your mom and Valentines...When you went on your mission and we went to your parent's home for your farewell, your mom had the CUTEST Valentines table scape. I've never forgotten how effortless, yet darling, it looked. So, of course, I'd love something Valentines from your mom.
Glad I'm not too late. Sorry for always looking, but never commenting. You have such fun ideas.
your blog is looking way cute.
I'm with you on the slump!
