I know how stressful blogging can be when there's not much time in your life - even if it's stress you put on yourself. Enjoy your time with Bianca! You'll figure it all out eventually!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17015161846956232802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566602409043396856.post-44907934514133398112014-03-27T10:50:59.976-07:002014-03-27T10:50:59.976-07:00she is such a cutie, I just love the last photo! :...she is such a cutie, I just love the last photo! :)<br /><br /><br /><br />Saci<br /><a href="http://chocolatefashioncoffee.blogspot.ro/" rel="nofollow"> ChocolateFashionCoffee </a><br /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/ChocolateFashionCoffee" rel="nofollow"> ChocolateFashionCoffee Facebook Page </a><br /><a href="http://instagram.com/kavasisisters" rel="nofollow"> ChocolateFashionCoffee INSTAGRAM!!! </a> ChocolateFashionCoffeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14468801456476913915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566602409043396856.post-50149936441282730982014-03-27T07:36:51.805-07:002014-03-27T07:36:51.805-07:00I think it's important to not stress yourself ...I think it's important to not stress yourself out over your blog. It's a hobby after all, right? I think anyone that forces blogging ends up feeling like a forced blogger. It's evident. Being a mother is NUMBER ONE! Don't let the internet convince you that it's possible to be a super human mother that can tackle everything in the entire world. Those ladies that manage to do that are a) delusional b) probably have a nanny. Being consistent in blogging is great when you first start out, but honestly, you probably want/need/deserve a break. If you think of some of the biggest bloggers out there Wish Wish Wish or Keiko Lynn -- they both update whenever they want. There seems to be no schedule and yet they are still relevant. I know a few "mommy" bloggers Forever House (her husband is a singer I love) & I Am Emme (my brothers wife) -- both of which are able to have full time jobs, blogs, and a life -- but they don't get all Bleu Bird Vintage about it, ya' know? My point: you'll find your balance. You will get a rhythm. You will discover ultimately what your main goal is with this blog and it will all be GREAT. Plus Bianca is also really young which is probably stressing you out more, but once she's older you will be able to do more. If I were in California, I'd be your photographer/baby sitter and it would be awesome!

I know how it is to stress yourself out because you feel like there is this expectation for your blog to be updated a certain amount of times a week, but sometimes life just doesn't call for it. And it's completely understandable now that you are a mommy! :) Enjoy it all and don't be too hard on yourself!Sara, Swing The Day Awayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00296261473134477205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566602409043396856.post-23669506974480972014-03-26T16:14:31.461-07:002014-03-26T16:14:31.461-07:00Enjoy your time away :) It'll help you relax a...Enjoy your time away :) It'll help you relax and you'll also probably get some fresh, new motivation!

I honestly don't know how people manage to work full time, have a family, keep a regular posting schedule AND read/comment on other blogs. It's crazy, I tell ya!<br /><br />I'm happy to continue following along, regardless of your schedule. I'm also an Instagram follower (jackmise) and I love seeing pictures of Bianca. She's adorable!!<br /><br />xo Jackie<br /><a href="http://somethingaboutthatthing.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Something About That</a>Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12802494108531540945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566602409043396856.post-40672857799676382882014-03-25T16:52:44.662-07:002014-03-25T16:52:44.662-07:00Ha I understand your thoughts..I didn't post e...Ha I understand your thoughts..I didn't post everyday to begin with..but I definitely had more time to post and comment on my fave posts...but thank goodness for bloglovin app!!!

I will miss seeing all your outfits because I love them and love hearing about your life, but way more important to not be stressing about the blog, especially since it is a hobby.
