Kiddos in the Blogosphere

Are you a new mama looking for inspiration to decorate your babe's nursery? Or a dad desperately seeking to read about the adventures of a guy who's honest about parenting and how tough it can be?


Next up in the Beyond Childhood series, I bring you a roundup of great blogs for the family-oriented. Enjoy!

A Cup of Jo: Joanna Goddard's posts about her baby Toby and all things maternity are super inspiring and authentic, plus she posts all sorts of wonderfulness on fashion, beauty and travel.

Kelle Hampton: a mom with a heart of gold, Kelle's posts are heartfelt and include lovely photos. I recommend reading the birth story she wrote about her daughter Nella, who has Down's Syndrome. (It brought a tear to my eye.) And oh man, look at this earthy belly!

Pacing the Panic Room: Ryan's one of the few honest blog dads I know who never ceases to amaze me with his profound words and beautiful photos. He documents the life of his charming wife, Cole, and their two little ones, Tessa Tangerine and the Littlest Buddy. Pacing the Panic Room featured an amazing series called Do Fun Stuff to benefit SMS by selling a fantastic benefit album. Buy it for your kiddos, and dance together! And if you missed Cole's pregnancy series or the Walk to 40 Weeks, get to it. Those photos are beyond rad.

Rummey Bears: Meet Mama Bear, Papa Bear and Baby Bear, some of the cutest people on the planet. Enjoy reading about their beautiful life in Australia, and all the fun design, photo, surfing, and family adventuring they do together. PS: Baby Bear will melt your heart. She is one of the cutest babes out there! Plus, the Rummeys had a very lovely DIY wedding you should check out.

Lena Corwin: Lena runs the lovely Wee Textile, a shop you should definitely check out if you love handcrafted baby wear. She carries the cutest sweaters you'll ever find! On the blog, she documents preparing for her babe and all the pretty things she's making for him. Plus, she has an awesome eye for design and one of the most rad closets around.

Mila's Daydreams: Last but certainly not least, a wonderfully imaginative blog that will make you laugh and swoon over a mom's lovely dreamscapes she creates for her babe while she naps. That Christmas one had me smiling at first sight! Adele is going to be releasing a book with all of the lovely photos of Mila's dreams soon. Keep an eye on her blog for the info and in the meantime, watch the breathtaking video Mom and Dad made together about their beautiful  little girl.
