Alisha Enid of Alisha Enid

Alisha is a full-time stay at home mom to two little boys. She fell in love with food at a young age and her passion for photography has grown with her. “I love to read and write and when I am not out and about chasing after my children, camera in hand; you can find me in the kitchen baking up something sweet, or cooking up a savory dish.”

Shelli of How’sitgoingeh?!

How’sitgoingeh?! Shelli is a Japanese American Valley Girl navigating her way around the Great White North! Her blog began as a way to share the experience of her wedding + honeymoon in Hawaii with friends. Then her husband and Shelli welcomed their sweet baby boy a year ago, and now the blog is a way to keep her loved ones all over the world updated with their milestones, laughs, hoarding, mommy hiccups + triumphs!

Codi Lynn of Creative Wife + Joyful Worker

Codi Lynn is a lifestyle mom blogger. She feels blessed daily by her lovely husband and two handfuls of joy (son, 6 and daughter, 1.5). While on maternity leave with her daughter, she started her first blog with very little knowledge, a whole lot of ideas, a willingness to learn and a goal to connect with a whole lot of like-minded individuals. Her blog has turned into so much more than she could have ever imaged. “It is a place for me to call my own, where sharing my creative ideas, feeling encouraged, and building strong friendships.” It has been an absolute honour to be chosen as a Top Mom Blogger!

Alison Tedford of Sparkly Shoes and Sweat Drops

Alison Tedford is an endearingly awkward single mom of a small boy. When she isn’t blogging about fitness, mental health awareness, feminism and parenting, she’s doing math in a cubicle, hanging off a brass pole at the dance studio, sweating on a spin bike or trying to figure out where she left her phone and keys. She loves interviewing people, napping and having frappucinos for breakfast.

Jacqueline and Juliana of Two Fun Moms

Jacqueline and Juliana were only kind of friends when they decided to start a humorous and uplifting parenting blog together, and now, a year later, they are for-real friends. They believe that finding the perfect balance between working, parenting, and having a life is impossible, but that laughter, honesty, and solidarity in the midst of the chaos makes it much easier. Their blog focuses on good-quality writing and brutal, encouraging honesty.
