Apologies if this has been asked but how are mom bloggers dealing with kids getting older? I see a lot of "the stories are not mine anymore" posts. I can see both sides and I'm not sure where I land yet.

A panel of elite mom bloggers will lead a conversation on the trends shaping the mom blogosphere, the business of blogging, the impact of Twitter, Facebook and other social media platforms, where they get their creative inspiration and much more!

Any hints for taking care of our families AND ourselves? I know I always feel like I have to keep way too many balls in the air.

Heloise - internationally syndicated columnist, TV personality and author of numerous books, including her latest, Handy Household Hints from Heloise - will host a FUN and informative discussion, including her best lifestyle hints. We'll also all share our best baby care ideas! This Talk is sponsored by Dr. Smith's Diaper Ointment (a premium blend ointment to treat even severe diaper rash, fast), and they'll be giving away some adorable gift baskets filled with products to help you care for your little one - along with personally signed Heloise Pamphlets just for mom.  Don't miss it!

Someone mentioned photo gifts and now I can't find the post. We use iPhoto to make a book of photos of the kids every year and send them to grandparents who rarely see them (in the last two years my kids have seen their grandmothers just once!). We have found those to be the most appreciated gifts we can send.

We're back for our annual holiday gift giving Talk! Join Treehugger and Cool Mom Picks to hear about their inspiring gift ideas for 2010. Treehugger and CMP have the BEST holiday gift guides anywhere, so be sure to join us to get fantastic ideas for everyone on your holiday gift lists! We'll also talk about creative gift wrapping ideas and stocking stuffers and more.

ClumberKim participated in the Live Talk Kids, School and Food

I'm new at the whole school lunch thing but I'm impressed with what I see at my son's school. He's picky but has started buying lunch some days and trying new things. Best of all, I can go on the web and see what he bought. He is making pretty good choices, with a little help from his teachers.

Let's talk about kids and food and the school year. School lunches, getting dinner on the table during our busy weeks, trying to eat healthily and with variety, etc. We have a fantastic group of mom bloggers hosting and look forward to a great, hands-on, helpful and inspiring conversation!!! Join us! And if you have some favorite recipes, stories, ideas, bring them!!!!!

ClumberKim participated in the Live Talk How To Unspoil Your Child Fast

Hi everyone. As someone who was perceived as spoilt by older siblings, I am very excited about this topic!

Ninety-four percent of parents judge their children to be spoiled. Yikes! Richard Bromfield, Ph.D., a psychologist at Harvard Medical School, will lead a conversation on his new book, "How to Unspoil Your Child Fast". Cookie Magazine described Dr. Bromfield's book this way: "It's a lively, engaging, helpful book that offers a look at our generation of parents and why we're tempted to indulge our children." Bring your stories and questions and get ready for an eye-opening, needed conversation!!

Has anyone from the Pittsburgh lunch tried Hannah's dump recipes yet? I haven't had the chance but I'm planning to try it out in October.

Just one comment on my giveaway post so far but I love it! Talks about valuing the food, valuing the time, and valuing the company.
