Since I entered the blogosphere back in January I have had the distinct opportunity to discover some seriously fierce bloggers. Blogging is like breathing for them; it’s natural, effortless and obviously something they were born to do.
There are too many wonderful and truly talented bloggers out there to mention personally but lately I’ve been thinking about my personal blog heroes and why they have made such an impression on me. The fact is, my blogging heroes inspire me to be more and better than I am today. Whether it is by authentic content or amazing web design or both, these writers are blogging like they mean it and I’m hanging on every word.
~Mommyfriend’s Blogging Heroes~
Dooce. All hail Dooce and her ability to rock the short haircut. Heather Armstrong of Dooce has been blogging since blogging began and is damn good at it. Her site rocks my socks with its vivid photography and candor. I love Dooce like the rest of the free world so if you haven’t met Heather Armstrong yet, do yourself a favor and pay her a visit.
Young House Love: The story of two young people falling in love with their first house. Sherry and John (AKA “The Youngsters”) are an internet home improvement sensation sweeping the nation and out to solve your design dilemmas, host amazing giveaways and showcase their exceptional taste. Visit the youngsters and you’ll fall in love.

The Pioneer Woman : Plowing through life in the country…one calf nut at a time. There is nothing Ree Drummond cannot do, from authoring a cookbook to homeschooling her 4 children to working the ranch; she’s got it going on with style. Ree Drummond, the Pioneer Woman is the best friend you wish you had.
Scary Mommy: An honest take on motherhood: The good, the bad and the scary. Jill from Scary Mommy is the mom I’m too scared to be but secretly wish I was. Scary Mommy is hilarious, ever-bold and most importantly, always right. Her site design makes me drool and every time she pays my site a visit I giggle like a school girl. Visit Scary Mommy and hold on tight.
Theta Mom: Redefining the definition of motherhood…one mom at a time. Heather from Theta Mom has accomplished more in 1 year of blogging than I ever thought possible. Heather writes relevant content with purpose from the purest place in her heart. I am proud to be a Theta Mom and thank Heather for her encouragement; I have learned so much from her. Are you a Theta Mom?
I hope you discover some of these wonderful finds online; start reading and have fun!

How did I miss this??? Thanks so much for the bloggy love mama!
Hi Carol, new bloggers unite! I hope you enjoy these amazing bloggers as much as I do!
Thank you for your picks, love to hear them and off to read them now!
I love personal recommendations, thank you for sharing. I will most definitely check them out!
Some of the blogs I really like are MommyWantsVodka, The Bloggess, and Undomestic Diva.
Those are great bloggers. Power bloggers, in the case of Dooce and The Pioneer Woman. I mean, Dooce has a TV show and Ree is having a movie made about her!You could add Mom101, Mama Kat’s Losing it, Seven Clown Circus and Spohrs are Multiplying.The trick is to find the bloggers that will be the NEXT ones. I read blogs where there aren’t a huge amount of readers and I wonder why – since in some cases, their writing is on par with some of the Big Kids.
Thanks for introducing me to all these amazing blogs!!! I just started blogging in January too=0) It takes me several hours to prepare 1 post, LOL!Have a great weekend,xoxo,Carol
dooce and Heather Armstrong were the reason I wanted to start blogging with pure abandonment and honesty. i have been a follower of hers for about 6 years. She is my hero.
