Welcome to The Ultimate Blog Party

Ultimate Blog Party 2008
Welcome to mommy bytes! Are you ready to party? Poke around and stay awhile. I'm a WOHM, a software engineering manager (sounds more impressive than it is, trust me), and an internet addict who has been blogging for nearly 4 years. I have two children, Adam and Dova, and a wonderfully supportive husband, Doug. Recently, I became a sk*rt editor! Check out their site for the hottest links around the web. And if you love Target as I do, I'm offering a $25 Gift Certificate as a prize. Check out #117 on the prize page. And be sure to join and visit all the other partyers at 5 Minutes for Mom.

Here are a sampling of photos of us, check out the rest on Flickr.

Great party! I love your Defense of Baby Einstein post. I also think it is so great that your DH is a SAHD. My husband was a SAHD for just 3 months (at which point I quit my job and he went back to work) but I think it was such a good experience for him and for the kids. He's a teacher so he'll be home most summers with them too, which is great.

Hope you're enjoying the party!
