Bloggers take Manhattan?
A few HAMO peeps and friends will be there to join the masses who are descending onto Midtown Manhattan for the annual BlogHer conference.
Are you going?
We would love to meet you!
Please stop by the Huggies …

We’re so grateful to Xavier the X-Man for including our cause in his annual benefit car show in San Diego. A portion of the proceeds from T Shirt sales, as well as a portion of the day’s sales from our friends at Pachuca Cosmetics, will benefit our local diaper program. Shout out to Alicia for making the magic happen!
