As predicted, 2010 was, in fact, the year of babies and biodiversity. But mostly babies.
Our exclusive Families and Friendlies blogroll has become dominated by the reports, images, and antics of the under-two crowd, and ours was no exception. We have also enjoyed all the non-baby posts of our friends who get more sleep than us, and are grateful for their friendship and willingness to babysit. We hope to stay connected and involved with each and every one of you. The Creedence Experience tour has scheduled a year long engagement at the current Provo location, so come visit us!
These, the second annual S & M awards:
Cutest Baby Photo Taker Winner
You have the greatest pictures! We not sure if its all talent or the fact that your background is usually your backyard paradise, but either way the combination is winning. So all you other baby mamas, you can run and tell that, run and tell that...
Most Likely to Sing-Along Blog
In addition to the blog soundtrack on the B&B blog, other tunes come to mind while perusing the posts, like Now I Know My ABCs... A Beautiful Coralee. Becky also wins the best baby bump award, because you look stunning pregnant, leaving the hospital, and basically all the time.
Best Childlike Wonder Blog
When Sis. McDonald's "things I'm grateful for" post includes boots, cookies, and family, and there is joy in the announcement that her town is getting a Wendy's, we can't help but respect the down-to-earth honesty of Sis. McD. Wishing you another faith-growing year on the mish, Chaela, and if you really want to teach English, we can support that.
Cutie Patootie Pazookie Baby Blog Award
We could eat Claire up! Seriously! With or without the pazookie. Things are looking good for you guys, so happy for all the opportunities coming your way.
Baby Wonderland Blog Award
We peer at Alice through the looking glass that is the blogosphere, and it makes us Chesire-cat smile! Although no babies turn into pigs, Alice does make convincing grunts. Good luck in the sleeping department, we wish you all the best!
Baby No More Blog Award
E&J are in the real world now. Don't forget us. We have yet to go as green, as pro, or to even start a quilt. We may or may not catch up ever.
I and Love and Your Blog Award
"Write the note/ tell the ones that need to know..." we are the ones that need to know, because we HEART. Brooklyn's energy, movement, and adorable smiles. She and Creedo would be so fun to see together. Really miss you guys, the good food, the good times. Thanks for keeping the blog updated so regularly!
Baby Juju
This award has nothing to do with her blog, but the funny way she perfectly imitates the buhludvideo. Oh, and nice pictures.
The Most Vehemently Denied Baby blog
Someone has to take the heat for not having kids, and the arrow seems to consistently single out you two DINKy student newlyweds. You can't have killer dog day summers like yours every year, so enjoy it! Plus, your blog features enough pictures of y'all with other adorable little ones that we aren't worried. Lets be friends in 2011, shall we?
The Most Likely to Borrow a Baby to Board the Plane First Blog
These travelers are here and there and everywhere this past year. Teensy bit jealous of the Cancun cruise over here. They can borrow Creedo at anytime for their next trip. Thanks for the babysitting and the love, its nice to have old friends still in Ptown.
Best Baby Sister Blog
Thanks for keeping me updated with the nitty gritty of the homebase environs, even the secrets. You're awesome.
Best Bun in the Oven Blog
Hey, there are a lot of cooking blogs out there, but only one barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen mama has landed a place on our blogroll. Keep the delish dish posts coming. We like to read them while we're eating our Little Ceasar's pizza.
Best Hair Blog
Cozi's coiffure remains impressive, Olivia is the ever-inspiring color chameleon, and even Nate grew out a 'do! Really, there is not enough of this blog to go around. Miss you all... again... next time, lets not keep moving past each other, mkay? Mkay.
Most Out- There Blog
Because I know N&K are out there somewhere... We still haven't tried that guilt-free recipe. We feel guilty about not trying it yet.
Most Likely to Be Blonde or maybe Redhead

Abigail is a doll, Lauren is so spunky, and who said Emily could grow up so fast? Thanks for the updates. Don't worry, we don't judge if they publish all at once- we're impressed that you have time to blog between all the playdates, theme parks, school days, and family visits! Good luck in ID, hope that you enjoy snow. We mean really enjoy snow.
Best Big Brother Award
Best Big Brother Award
With all the changes your family has in store, we thought we would grant Liam a special spotlight. Liam- you are so cool! Way to take care of your mom and dad! We're feeling a little sappy reading the end-is-nigh posts of one on one time with Liam, and sort of dreading the day when Creedo has to share and be shared. Thanks for keeping your blog so up-to-date, and on all sorts of interesting topics. We love catching up on it.
Bambina de Dios
Bambina de Dios
Sorella Langham, serving in Milan Italy, has that completely alarming and incredibly optimistic outlook and faith in every son or daughter of God she meets. Her faithful wonder and belief in people is inspiring.
Best Baby Auntie Award
Best Baby Auntie Award
You would think that the life-changing experience of joining the Peace Corps and stationing in rural Nata, Botswana would eclipse all other 2010 events for Sydney. But last fall she became an aunt, and the joy she has in her nephew is profoundly apparent. Even continents apart, Sydney is a doting aunt. We are ever impressed by your courage and ability to love!
Best Beach Babies Blog
Half the posts on this blog involved beaches, most involved babies, and all of them had great pictures. Creedo and Brayden (BFF!) don't even know how cool they are yet, but we think the day will soon come where they build sand castles on the beach together, and then team up to try to keep Kaitlyn from knocking them over. So excited to see you all again!
Once again, an honorable mention is due to the Facebooking, blog checking, text messaging, Skype-calling one-in-a-million Grandma Sarah. Thanks for all the comments, love and support!

I have been waiting for this post! Kudos to you two for capturing my attention in the blogworld. Also, you should link my cooking blog and not the blog I left long ago on the side of the highway. :)
Yes Maam! Links have been updated, thanks for pointing it out!
Love all the awards. Everyones comments are so fun to read. You bloggers and facebookers have no idea how you make my day with updates and pictures. Love you all!
Ha ha, I love the annual awards you give out! You both are always so clever. But doesn't S&M mean something else in the vocabulary of the broader public? Don't google it, I think it could get ugly.
Well, thank you! Ironically, my computer is usually muted, so I haven't heard the music on my blog for a while! And as for the pregnancy comment... w.h.a.t.e.v.e.r... I don't believe you. I'll still take the compliment though. :D
