It’s Party Time!!

For those of you who don’t know me, I am Christine. I am married to my best friend and together we have six beautiful (and very loud) children.

I started my little blog, From Dates to Diapers, and beyond!, simply because I wanted a place to talk about my favorite products, as well as all of the fabulously generous mommy bloggers and their fun giveaways. Over the last year it has become so much more… Here you will find stories about life with half a dozen little ones, all ages 7 and under, as well as the joys (and challenges) that I face as helpmeet, mommy, teacher, and all-around go-to girl. I host giveaways and hold contests, talk about other fantastic mommies, post pictures and stories about my kiddos, and offer my two-cents on all sorts of things, from dates to diapers!

Please feel free to stay awhile, browse around, and leave me a comment to let me know that you were here… I love company and will gladly welcome a new friend! Bookmark me, subscribe to my feeder, or just come back and visit me again soon. I always have exciting stuff going on. From games and prizes to quizzes and special features.

Welcome to my week-long party! From Dates to Diapers is a party blog this week, my fellow bloggin’ mamas!

Before you go, I want to introduce you to three of my favorite mommy bloggers, Amanda, Kristin, and Shanda. The four of us have come together to launch a whole new website for Mothers. This site is called Mommies United. Our goal is to bring Moms from all over the blogosphere together in one place! We will be hosting parties, scavenger hunts, giveaways and contests. Mommies United will also be a place where you can read and share stories about your kiddos, tips, ideas, and parenting strategies .

We have many features, all so you can connect with other Mom’s with similar interests. Maybe you are not a Mom yet, but you’re trying to conceive your first baby – We have a place for you too! Don’t forget to check out the forum.

Mommies United is also home to the MEGA Review! The Mega Review is where each of us four mommies post about a product on our own personal blogs. Then we all post together on Mommies United with a group review! We will also include a link to our individual personal reviews. So It is 5-in-1 Review! Not only do companies get their name out to one website but it will be featured on Five!

We are opening our new site with a BANG! A HUGE Launch Party to take place on March 17th and will run for two weeks! During those two weeks you can come and play lots of games and win some fabulous prizes! Did you notice all those wonderful buttons on our sidebar? Those are all the great companies who are donating prizes! You will be able to see the prize list during the Launch Party!

Mommies United – bringing moms together!

Oh, and I wanted to share this fun coloring page that Amanda created! Print it out and give it to your kids… Let’s let them have some fun, too!! Put it on your fridge so you won’t forget about Mommies United (but seriously, how could you?)
