A long while ago, I posted about some of my favorite families in the blogosphere and their kiddos. Now I'd like to offer a follow up to that post, featuring an update on these beautiful bloggers. Their homes are so full of love, and their little ones are getting so big!

Joanna and Alex of A Cup of Jo are the parents of the adorable Mr. Toby. I love following their posts on life in New York City and adventures in parenting. Joanna offers some lovely insight on motherhood as well as the best spots to enjoy in the Big Apple. And isn't it cute how Toby is already picking up his parents' dashing style? Check out those wayfarers! You're on your way, little man.

Ryan and Cole of Pacing the Panic Room are wonderful. They bring such a creative, energetic approach to parenting their little ones, Tessa and the Littlest Buddy. I love when Ryan's photos capture moments like this -- so graceful, effortless, and fun. Ryan is one of those rare photographers who is unafraid to capture the rawness of a moment, like when a set of new parents welcome their child into the world. And if you're into wild hairstyles, fashion photography, or indie music, you should swing by his blog. Plus, how sweet is it that Ryan signs every post with "all the love in the universe?"

Kelle Hampton's dreamy blog features her two beautiful daughters, Lainey and Nella. Kelle really does stay true to the blog's title, Enjoying the Small Things, as she posts about life's little pleasures like fall arts and crafts, time together as a family, and bathtime and chicken noodle soup. There's something so joyous about this spaced you've carved out for yourself and your family, Kelle!

I'm happy to report that the little dreamer from Mila's Daydreams is up and about. What a precious little girl who seems to have her mom's eye for creativity already. And, exciting news: Adele Enersen, the genius mom behind the series, is publishing a book! If you'd like to keep updated on the news about when it's published, go sign up here.

I love that Anna of Rummey Bears isn't afraid to post when her daughter has a runny nose or a scraped knee. She captures the essence of childhood on the Rummey Bears blog -- the bright, sneaky, silly side of being a kid -- which occasionally hurts, but is so worth it. Thank you, Anna, for your courage and your humor.

Finally, I'd like to introduce Jamie of A Desert Fete, super blogger and mom of precious Hank. Not only does she post here, but she also shares an online space at Hank + Lucy. Sometimes I swing by and just imagine how those two little ones will grow up as best friends. They are in the hands of some good mamas!

Who are your favorite mom and dad bloggers out there?
