Lovin' the Weekend Blog Hops: September 6-8, 2013


Welcome to Lovin' The Weekend Blog Hops with your co-hosts:
Karen from Tots and Me, Rena from An Ordinary Housewife and Angie from Snack Cups and Smiles.

Thank you to every one who has stopped by, whether this is your first visit or you have been a faithful ongoing participant! 

We would love for you to stop by each of the co-hosts and follow us, then feel free to add your links to any or all of the following linkies.

 We also randomly choose a Featured host each week from the Lovin' The Readers linky. This week we are featuring Susan from Healthy. Happy. Fit.



Here's what she has to say:
"Susan is the girl behind healthy.happy.fit, a blog all about her personal ventures into bettering her health and diet, increasing her fitness and more recently, about her pregnancy and her new baby Thomas. She started blogging two years ago when she joined the 'Tone it Up' an exercise and fitness community. The plan was to share healthy recipes and fitness tips. But she realized she had so much more to say and she started seriously blogging a year ago when she became pregnant and wanted to meet up with other mothers and share her experiences. You can follow Susan through her blog, Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter."

Don't forget to link up to the Lovin' the Readers Hop if you would like a chance to be a Featured host next week. Please comment with a way to contact you, especially if there is not an obvious way mentioned on your blog. We would love to include a little write up about you and your blog in the next week's Lovin' The Weekend Blog Hop post, including a link to your blog. And you will get to include the linky codes on your blog. Sound fun? We're looking forward to getting to know our readers better.

Here's how this blog hop works. We would appreciate it if you would follow Tots and Me, An Ordinary Housewife and Snack Cups and Smiles. And please don't forget to visit our Featured Host. If you no longer have GFC please follow in some other way. After that there are three different linkies you can link to. Whichever one you choose to link to, please grab that button and share it on your blog (the codes are on Tot's and Me's sidebar). We'd love it if you could tweet or in some other way share about this blog hop, the more people who know about it, the more potential visitors and new followers of your blog. We'd love to meet some new friends this weekend.  

Some people are more interested in just increasing their numbers, while others really want people who appreciate their blog and want to keep up with their posts. So, there are two separate blog hop linkies. 

The third linky is for you to link up your giveaways.

If you are interested in increasing the number of followers to your blog via GFC, Linky Followers, email, Twitter, Facebook or Google+ link up here. We will follow you back if you follow us (just note which one you are linking to):

Tots and Me


If you are interested in gaining followers to your blog who will read and comment and truly find an interest in your blog, link up here:

If you have family friendly giveaways to link up, here's your spot. Please make sure to include an end date for your giveaway.

Tots and Me


We are so glad you stopped by. Please leave a comment if you link up and we will be sure to stop by and follow back.

Sunday Photo Round-Up: September 1, 2013

It's time for me to share my photo challenge photos from this week.
First, let's get going with this week's Scavenger Hunt Sunday:


Down, Shadow, Flow, Tip, Beyond

Down
This is what happens to a cell phone when it falls down from a chest level onto a concrete parking lot. Did I mention it fell face down?

Shadow

I wanted to get a picture of the girls' shadow giving each other a high five. Of course the sun went behind the clouds. When the sun came back out we ran outside to capture these pictures. The first one is the high five picture, the second is a picture of them standing together holding hands.

Flow
The river as it flows under the bridge near our home.

Tip
I love a new box of crayons with their nice sharp tips. They sure don't stay that way for long in our house.

Beyond

The park is beyond our back yard. Sorry, couldn't come up with anything else.

Now onto

Your image alt-text here


Disclosure: I am an affiliate with Little Learning Lovies and receive a small commission on purchases made through my links. Thank you for your support. All opinions expressed in this post are my own and are in no way swayed by any compensation I may receive.

I have shared how much we enjoy the Lovie Packs from Little Learning Lovies before. The Lovie Packs are full of fun activities and games that you can print out and use with a minimum of preparation. There are math and language activities for young children. You can choose between Tiny Lovie Packs for children Pre-K through 1st grade and Little Lovie Packs for children in 1st grade through 3rd grade. If you have children in both age ranges you can choose to purchase both Lovie Packs for a discount. 

Today is the first day that the September Lovie Packs are available to purchase. This month's theme is "Apple Harvest."  You could purchase the Tiny Lovie Pack, the Little Lovie Pack or the Double Lovie Pack

But that is not the most amazing news for today! Today, for one day only, you can purchase all the past month's Lovie Packs in celebration of it being the 6th month of Lovie Packs. Check out the fun Lovie Packs from the past 5 months.

April: On the Farm


May: Spring Buggies


June: Happy Campers


July: Neverland


August: Fun in the Sun


Don't miss out on your chance to get these Lovie Packs. They will be available through midnight tonight. After they are retired you will not be able to purchase them as a full pack again, though some of the individual files may be available.
