When I started blogging, I wanted to be the perfect student. So I tried to glean all the awesome blogginess from my bloggy mentor, Metropolitan Mama. One of the ways I did this was to totally steal copy her blogroll. I figured if those blogs were good enough for her, they were good enough for me.

One of the first blogs I began to follow was Adventures in Babywearing. And if you haven’t heard of it, you’ve been living under a rock somewhere. Stephanie is such a delightful person and writes about the many joys, challenges and adventures in motherhood…something she does with grace and class. I got the opportunity to meet Stephanie in person at BlogHer ’08 and she’s as kind in person as she is on her blog.

Stephanie was the winner of the Mother of All Bloggers contest back in April. As part of the contest, the winner received a blog makeover or other service by yours truly. Because Stephanie already had the cutest design ever by Ruby & Roja, she opted to have a Twitter page made to coordinate with her look. This is what we came up with…

Thanks Stephanie, for the opportunity to take your ideas and run with them.

So if you’re not already, follow Steph at @babysteph and be sure to visit her blog. You’ll be a better blogger, mother, person for it.
