A Treat for My Baby: Background, Labels & Buttons

I gave my blog a treat today. I created her a background, some labels, and social media buttons for the very first time. Because I'm so excited, I'm sharing these with you.

Pretty neat and sweet huh? ;) I’m inspired to create more labels and buttons - all for you! Of course, it’s for free. :)) Excited? Me, too! :))

Happy blogging and stay awesome! ♥♥♥ 

P.S.

What Am I Blogging For?

My first MILK post is about what a blog is and the different types of blogs. I ended the lesson with these questions: "Why do I want to blog? What's my purpose?" 

I hope I've given you enough time to think, reflect, and answer these questions to yourself.  Perhaps, you already have a blog before you knew about The BLOG BABY. If so, my question would be, "Why do you have a blog?"

Today, we'll talk about the purpose of blogging or the reason why you have a blog. 

I guess each and everyone of us has his or her own purpose and whatever that purpose is, it boils down into two main blog categories...the I-Am-Me Blog (personal) and the Bread and Butter Blog (business).

Why Do You Want to Blog?
If you want to blog because you want to write about someone you really hate or you hate the world that you want everyone to know how ugly and bad the world is, then you must stop. I'm telling you right now, it's not healthy! Just because you feel upset right now doesn't mean the whole world should feel bad too, or make people hate the world they live in like you do. Remember this, either you are in your good times, bad times, or it is yet to come, life is always summed up in three words - IT GOES ON! I'd suggest you just throw eggs at the door of your neighbor if that Mr. Rude Guy messed up with your lawn, perhaps throw a big punch in a classmate's face who's bullying you around. Ooops! I'm just kidding! Don't you dare do it or do it at your own risk, but I'm telling you...it's not nice. Did I say that the BLOG BABY will not only teach you how to make your blog cute? She'd also teach you how to be cute and pretty or handsome in real life. ;) 

Okay, enough with the throwing and punching Let's go back to business! 

The BLOG BABY's advice is to blog with a good purpose. If you love music, then blog about music. You can write anything that inspires you. If you want to blog about music but your purpose is to say things that are not cool especially for music lovers, then you are just wasting your time. Either people will hate you now or time will come when you have learned to love music, you'd hate yourself for blogging and saying bad things. So, save yourself from that situation. Blog with a good purpose, with good intentions.

If you ask me what's my purpose and why The BLOG BABY was created, my purpose is to inspire people and share my experiences. I aim to inspire blog newbies and help them create cute blogs. I am just someone who loves to share her inspirations, knowledge, skills, experiences, and has the passion to create and write. These are my reasons. 

Now, if you already have found some inspiration and realized your purpose, I'll be more than happy to help you create your blog, whether it's for personal or business use. 

My next MILK post will help you choose or decide the best blog platform to use for blogging. So, stay tuned my dear blog babies. For now, stay inspired and be happy! :))

Here are they, my Marcus & Enzo during their first months.

Peekabo: Stamp Goodies For You!

I created these stamps for this blog, and I thought I should make Stamp Goodies for my blog babies too. ;))

While I prepare these cute buttons, here's a Peek-a-boo for you!



I ♥ STAMPS



These are just some cuties I created for The BLOG BABY...I'm creating Stamp Goodies for my blog babies too! :))

Blog Baby Pastel Prints





This is How It Started

I was in the kitchen, which is my favorite spot in our home by the way, and scribbling while waiting for the chicken to cook.

I felt like a student in a class scribbling away in my journal. This is the one that I had scribbled and the BLOG BABY was created. The rest is history....

Peekabo: Introducing The Blog Baby's MILK

After a few minutes of brainstorming, I now present to you - MILK.
Sounds yummy? I guess your questions is, "what is MILK?"
 
MILK is...
 
 
Must-haves, Illustrations, Lessons & Knowledge for every Blog Baby.

Blog Babies need  MILK  to keep 'em going.

MILK is your source of blog inspiration.
 
So every time I discuss or provide materials for my dear blog babies,  we'll call that MILK. Are we cool? Or are we starting to get thirsty now? LOL 

And because...
 
I'm going to get myself some glass of fresh milk in a sec.

Nytie babies! Have a delightful evening! :))

What is a Blog?


Famous Wiki, the quick encyclopedia, defined BLOG as a discussion or informational site published on the World Wide Web and consisting of discrete entries ("posts") typically displayed in reverse chronological order (the most recent post appears first).

While the extremely smart guy named WiseGEEK says, "a blog is a diary or journal where the writer or "blogger" will write her observations on the world or provide links to useful websites".
There are different types of blogs; they differ in the type of content, category, theme, and purpose. You can read about the different types of blogs in Wiki.
Here's my own list of blog categories:
Personal Blog or I-am-mE Blog
A personal blog is the most common blog. It is like a diary or journal of an individual. Having a diary is ancient; people used pen and paper until a guy named Charles Babbage invented the computer. Some personal bloggers just keep their blog posts private. They find blogging as an outlet and a way of expressing one's self. Some would blog and share their posts to the public as a way to communicate with other people. They want to share their thoughts, feelings, or experiences to their friends, families, or loved ones. Since this type of blog is personalized, it reflects the life or personality of the author, writer, or blogger. Therefore, I call this the "I-Am-Me Blog".
Business Blog or The Bread & Butter Blog
Most entrepreneurs these days are entering the world of blogging, or the blogosphere. People in the business have discovered "blogging" as a new way to engage with their clients and stay connected with them. It's a way of building a long-lasting relationship by keeping a good communication. If you're in a business, you know what I mean. :) You know how important it is to keep your clients updated with your products and services. Their feedback or their "voice" matters. Your clients are your bread and butter...and that's why you're blogging.  
By Genre
Health blog, sports blog, music blog, food blog, fashion blog, travel blog (or travelog), garden blog, you name it! There are people who'd blog about a particular subject according to what's hip, crisp, or whatever is engaging or popular. A person would blog about what interests him or her the most. If you are a food lover, you'd blog about food and dining. If you love Brad Pitt and Angelina, you'd probably blog about their life, the latest news, etc. If you love DIYs or crafting, you'd blog about your projects. There are so many things to blog about; it's a big big world honey! ;)
Video Blog 
It is also known as vlogs (video logs) and it's all about videos. It's like a television on the web. Most people nowadays are crazy about videos and they love to share it to the world. Many would post their videos on YouTube so the world can see. I know a girl named Charice who got discovered by Ellen Degeneres (I love Ellen by the way, just saying |giggles|)through YouTube. Now, she's popular in America and made one of her songs the Billboard's number 1 hit in 2010. 
Photoblog
This is one of my personal favorites. It is a form of photo sharing that's published in the format of a blog. If you love taking photos or just love photography, then you'd be photoblogging.
________________________________________
If you are a Blog Baby, which means you are new in the web and want to create a blog but do not know how to start, then this will be really helpful.
The Blog Baby will help you decide what kind of blog you'd want for your self or your business.
Now, are you ready to create your own blog? If then, answer these questions first and from there, you're good to go:
"Why do I want to blog? What's my purpose?"
Until the next blog post my blog babies, I'm getting some milk for my real babies now.
Hugs!
Blog Baby Moki

Thanks for dropping by and hope you'll love it here. ;)

I'm a Blog Baby



If you are a Blog Baby* looking for something fresh, crisp, sparkling, fun, and cute, you are on the right dotcom (track).

First off, I'm no expert here; I'm also a blog baby still looking for something fresh to keep my own blogs glowing. After 2 years of blogging (on and of) while breastfeeding my almost 2-year-old son, I realized that it's time to share my knowledge, skills, and experience.

I've been working online since 2010 and no wonder I have seen, read, and bookmarked the coolest, prettiest, cutest blogs already. I know there are a lot more that I haven't discovered just yet. There are blogs that I'd come across and my eyes won't even take a look for more than 5 seconds; I'd hit the next button or the x (close) button of the window. There are also blogs that would really catch my eyes' attention. Okay, I know how important it is to have a nice and interesting web content but I believe it is also important to have a blog or a site that is pleasing to the eyes, the one that's catchy. As a blogger, it is nice to put some eye candy on your blog. Believe me, it's almost 100% effective if you want people to come and visit your blog and read the contents in it. You have to give them some attraction! Just like babies, no matter what they do, they will always be cute. They are so cute and you'd really pay attention to them. Being cute matters!

So, are you excited to create your own blog? Whether you want it for personal use or for your business, I'll help you create the cutest and friendliest blog in the world wide web.

If you've been blogging since the late 90's or you're a blog expert already, well, this blog isn't for you. Perhaps this is something you wouldn't be interested in, but feel free to visit The Blog Baby and feel like a newborn today. :))




*a blogger newbie, opposite of the blog expert/blog master

Welcome Blog Babies!

A dot com, a dot net, a dot org, or whatever dot you've got, I'll help you create the cutest and friendliest blog in the world wide web. :)
