Hello Ultimate Blog Party attendees! Welcome to Sophistishe! If you’ve been here before, hello again! Before I start rambling about myself,
first let me say…
Susan and Janice, you rock. I remember wandering on to your blog 4 years ago. I wasn’t even a mom, but I kept coming back. It has since flourished into a huge venture and growing community. I never would have imagined that I’d be meeting you two 3 years after making my first blog visit! Job well done ladies and thanks for continuing to inspire and encourage bloggers and non bloggers in this community!
Now…
I’m Sheena, you may know me from Mommy Daddy Blog.
I went through a whole episode of blogger burnout and an identity crisis. See here and here.
I am now feeling free. I’m so happy that I can just scream. I would, but I don’t want to scare the neighbors.
Sophistishe isn’t new, I just abandoned it to explore parent blogging when I found out I was pregnant.
It is my personal space. I talk a lot about parenting, but I no longer feel restricted to the topic. If I wanna talk about gardening, home decor, natural hair, or my love for nail polish and Reese’s peanut butter cups, I can do just that.
I am the mother of a charismatic, sometimes drama king of a toddler, Jayden. He’ll be 2 on April 26th!
I am the fiancée to my Junior High sweetheart, Greg. He gives me lots of smooches and back rubs.
I have a passion for photography.
I’m on this better living kick. Anything that makes life more fulfilling is worth a try.
I’m in love with all things tropical.
I feel a little weird talking about myself, so to avoid sounding like the overachiever in High School (which I certainly am not) I will now direct you to my About page. I do a little something in this space.
Follow me on Twitter and Facebook if you want to keep up with my random rambles.
There are loads of prizes to be won during UBP. I’d love to win a $50.00 gift certificate to Amazon, Target, or Priddy Creations. In the event that my top choices are taken, I’d like to add prizes 83, 66, and 1.
I know you all are itching to hop to the next party, so thanks for stopping by! Link up your party posts below and party on!
Pssst…enter my giveaways here.
I read and value each and every comment and I visit those who comment... even if I don't comment back. I'm working on it, I swear! Stuff you should know *ehehm*: So... sometimes companies send me items of interest in exchange for a feature on my blog. Some also compensate me for my time and efforts creating content to promote them. Yay! I always disclose if I have a relationship with a company. If I don't disclose a relationship with a company and I link to them, then the link is most likely an affiliate link. I use a plugin that automatically does this for me. Cool huh? Just want to make sure you are aware :). Read my full disclosure policy 
Love your blog! For some reason, it’s giving me problems joining on Google Friend connect… anyway, thanks for sharing!
Feel free to come by my blog and read my Ultimate Blog Party ’10 post! Become a reader & stay informed of upcoming giveaways!

Stopped by via the UBP and just realized I am following you on twitter. I checked out your photostream and your little one is just adorable. I love black and white photography and some of my favs in your photostream are your black and white shots.
Just stopping in from the party :)
