My personal photographer and I have been working on shooting lots of pictures for a new Evolving Mommy header. For those of you that don’t know, all those pictures of me where it says Evolving Mommy at the top of the page is a header. Also, for those of you who don’t know, Luke is my personal photographer, although I am not sure that he would give himself that exact title, he’d probably call himself something more along the lines of “loving and extra patient husband.”
You may be wondering why I need a new header, after all having my face plastered across the top of the page is pretty perfect. Or maybe not. Well friends Evolving Mommy is getting a few tweaks, a new design and a new location. Luckily for you when these changes happen you’ll still visit me at evolvingmommy.com.
Yes, as some of my fellow bloggers may have guessed, I am defecting from Blogger to WordPress. I am making the move slowly and all by myself so, yes I am also a little bit crazy. (I’ll let you in on a little secret that isn’t all that secret though, WordPress rocks, at least from my slightly limited use of it. So far I am a big fan.)
For those of you who do not know what the heck Blogger or WordPress is besides a new look, and a new header what does this move mean for Evolving Mommy readers? Well for starters, easier commenting which means that all of you who stop by read a post and then leave will be able to easily leave a comment before you head off to you next internet destination. Also, for those of you who bravely venture into the world of Evolving Mommy recipes, you will be able to search through all my recipes in a much faster, easier and organized way. Actually all of the content on Evolving Mommy will be easier to search through.
To say that I am very excited about this move is an understatement and I hope to be fully moved over to our new home soon. Until then keep your fingers crossed that I don’t go crossed eyed while looking through HTML and CSS and that I don’t break anything in the packing, moving, unpacking and decorating process.

Good luck with the move! I keep going back and forth over the whole thing. I think I just feel like such a "small potatoes" blog I wonder if it's really necessary. I admire your bravery and learning how to do it!!!!
Yay! You won't regret it. Well, maybe like me you'll regret it tearfully every 5 minutes when you mess up another piece of code, but know that it's far better and will work out amazingly in the end!
Look at you joining the dark side. We will be happy to have you. 😉
Thanks for welcoming me with open arms Megan and Jen. Oh, and thanks for the wishes of luck I'll need it. 🙂
Mr.B will be very pleased with you. He is a fan of WordPress.
YEAH…you have to tell me how you do it…I've slowly been trying…but tend to get frustrated…so much to learn…..so any tips you have on how to do it…I would Sooooo appreciate…..
Hey let me know when you've gone crossed eyed. I end up like that every day so I like to enjoy when others share the pain. 🙂
Look forward to seeing the new look. I checked out wordpress…I don't think I'm smart enough to use it..ha!
okay…once you figure this out you must share!!! Im interested, but scared. hehe
Can't wait to see Evolving Mommy once you have fully moved over!
I think it is awesome that you are teaching yourself.
It is crazy to see how many people have thought about making the move to WordPress. So far I really like it, I'll let you know more once the move is complete.
