First Impressions, Shmirst Impressions


In an effort to do something kinda cool involving my baby (that isn't Toddlers and Tiaras because Nate refuses to let me spend $1450 on Jackson's Outfit of Choice) and because I really like new stuff, I tossed my name into the mix of blogs requested by a baby product company I follow via Facebook to "give feedback and test new products". Also, Jackson was asleep on me and I was afraid to move and wake him up.


Since I've never attempted anything like that before, I sent them the following email:

Dear Baby Product Company-
I would not in any way consider myself a typical Mommy Blogger. Largely because I curse a lot and admit that I really have no clue what I'm doing (my son is 7 weeks old and he is WAY harder to take care of than a plant). I'm pretty much a hysterical-mess-turned-terrified-mom who's attempting to like Diet Coke With Splenda because I read something about regular (delicious) Diet Coke being terrible for breast-fed babies.

I tell you this only so that you aren't horribly offended upon reviewing my blog (although, heads up, you still might be), and also so that you're aware that I think I'd be a decent addition to your feedback giver/product reviewer team. I'm brutally honest (in my writing- not in real life, because that would be silly) and mildly funny (if you consider faux kitten fires funny), and quite frankly, pretty dog-gone relatable.

So, anyway, I guess just let me know your thoughts (unless they're negative- then just ignore me).
Respectfully,
Kate
