  1. I’m excited for the changes, especially the polls. I like voting for anything, who am I kidding? 🙂

  2. This all sounds really exciting and I’m all for it! Is it weird that I’m more ok with changes to content/delivery than actual formatting/visual ones? Like, I can handle if you start writing about your favorite pie once a week, but change the background/layout again and I might cry. haha. :p

    1. HA! No, I’m done with site design for now … I’d love something snazzier, but that will have to wait until I have the time to work with a graphic designer. I have come to accept my limitations! 🙂

  3. It sounds like a lot of fun! I’m so happy that you’ve found a way to handle the high demand without going crazy! I am looking forward to reading the new lists!

  7. Could you please update the master lists? There’s been so many great new name posts that aren’t linked up there!
    Thanks!

    1. Absolutely – that’s one of the nagging chores that I’m hoping to get to by making these changes!

  9. Your plan sounds great! How fun to change things up a little bit – I’m excited to see the list posts and the polls, as well as the updates on names you’ve already profiled… will be fun to see how much things have changed in the past few years (and if any of the commentary previously expressed by readers holds or has changed – I suspect that I may have a different point of view on some of them by now!)

    Congratulations again on becoming an aunt!

  10. Excited for the new changes! 🙂 Glad you’ve figured out a way to deal with name requests without getting overwhelmed and just wanting to quit instead. I especially like the idea of the polls. 🙂
