About the liebster award:
The Liebster Award origins are pretty much a mystery. Bloggers nominate other bloggers that have 200 or less followers. It's basically a "Hey, that's a sweet little blog you've got there. Here's an award!" You can't just accept the award. You have to play by the (ever changing) rules and pay it forward. Then you can put the award on your blog for all to see.
The rules.
1. List 11 facts about yourself. (I hope that you enjoy them! I tried to write things that hopefully my readers may not know, but then things that new people stopping in may find interesting as well.)
2. Answer the 11 questions given to you. (My 11 questions for each of the 11 nominated blogs are near the bottom of this post!)
3. Create 11 new questions for the bloggers you nominate for the award.
4. Choose 11 bloggers with 200 or less followers to nominate. (At the very bottom of this post you will find the links!)
5. Go to each bloggers page and let them know about the award.
6. Thank the person who nominated you and link back to their blog. (see the intro of this post!)

Thanks for the award :)
This is fun! I love finding other mom bloggers from Michigan (and who have three girls like me!). I live in Wisconsin now, but grew up there. In fact, though I'm a Michigan fan (as you noticed on my blog), I actually went to Michigan State. It's a long story ... Thanks so much for the comment. I'm following you now. - Amy (Motherhood And Miscellany)
Wow - thank you so much! I'll post my answers tomorrow. Thank you for nominating me!!!
