Looking back on 2011 a lot happened. So much it’s hard to believe that it all happened in just one year! But it did, and we’re giving you an entire Halos and Horns episode – what we loved and hated last year working with brands and navigating the mom blogging universe.
And yes, the Blogging Angels’ furry mascot, Bentley, was quite vocal during the first part of this episode. We think he’s upset that he doesn’t have his own mic.
This week’s links
Rebecca attended the Mom Congress conference in Washington D.C. as the representative from New York State.
Nancy loved an Intel event at held Olives (we all love Intel – even Amy is happy to get off of her couch for them).
Heidi loved the Skylanders launch event, which included pjs for the kids!
Ford gave bloggers time with Bill Ford Jr., which Heidi thought was special.
Jen Wagner’s event for Popcap Games, at EN Japanese Brasserie, was a favorite for Rebecca.
Corrine Ingrassia got a shout-out from Nancy for the KidzVuz event at BlogHer.
Gay NYC Dad got a shoutout from Rebecca for…coupons? 
Nicole Feliciano is an example of a blogger whose kids are no longer in diapers who still writes about baby products, as opposed to us Angels. Target your pitches well!
Ford, Playstation and Microsoft got special mentions from Heidi.
Jennifer Perillo is a good example of how the “online” and “in real life” friendships have blurred this year, and we think that’s a move in the right direction.
We hope you had a great year! You’ll be hearing from us next from the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, where we’ll be talking about the hottest, weirdest, and most interesting new tech products that may be coming to stores and websites near you.
