Julia celebrating the Ultimate Blog Party 2009Welcome to the Party!

The Ultimate Blog Party is about building online friendships.

It’s simple to join the fun and lots of ways you can get involved — from simply reading this post, to publishing your own party post on your blog and signing one of the Mr. Linky link lists near the end of this post.

So come on in and enjoy the party. We are Susan and Janice, the twin bloggers behind 5 Minutes for Mom. Since 2006, we’ve been blogging here and running two online toy stores — a pedal car store and a rocking horse store.

We each have two young children. Janice has a seven year old boy Jackson and a one and a half year old toddler Olivia. I have two little girls, Julia who is almost four and my toddler Sophia is two weeks younger than Janice’s girl Olivia.

We love our online life and the best part is our online friendships.

5 Minutes for Mom is really for everyone… not just moms.

We want to give a HUGE welcome to all women (and men too) whether or not you have children.

We use the term “Mom” to include everyone who loves children and is interested in the types of things that generally interest moms.

We especially want to include moms-to-be and women struggling to become moms.

In our recent poll of whether the Ultimate Blog Party should be for women only, the votes were quite split. It looks like the general consensus is we want to be welcoming but remember that the focus of the party is for bloggers to build genuine online friends and increase their readership in a fun, organic way.

So, we want YOU to party with us, whether you’re a mom, grandma, a dad or a single gal. 🙂

We reserve the right to remove any links from the list that are spammy, offensive or don’t fit the nature of our party.

How to party with us:

(Simplified version. Details here.)

  • Read and comment on THIS post to be entered in the draw for PRIZES.

  5. Oh, dear~ I hope I’m not posting too late to be in the prize draw~ I read the “How To Win The Prize You Really Want” on the prize page, before the party, when I went about donating my two prizes, and it only mentioned bloggers posts, not comments~
    I’ve been hopping around and visiting, and thought I’d check back tonight before I go to bed(later than I should)
    Agggg…. I didn’t know I needed to comment here. (OOPS!)
    Oh well, I’ll hope there is a little grace for a first-timer. 😉

    If not, maybe next time….

  6. I wish I would have seen this sooner. Great idea!

  7. Txs for an awesome UBP! It was my 1st time attending, but it was definitely not my last!

    Oh My Stars – what a week – I tried to visit 50 blogs per day this week . . . I wanted to get through the list of bloggers and on Mon I thought I could do it!!!! But each day I came here, there were SO MANY MORE blogs to see!!!!!!!! I did visit well over 300 NEW blogs!! I LOVED this and I am going to keep visiting all these new and fabulous women that I didn’t know were out there. I was so busy with UBP that I didn’t even get to join Wordless Wednesday this week!!!!
    What a fun week!!!!!!!!!

  10. Thank you so much to all who came by my blog and visited.. I really wish I would have had time to visit more myself. I was at the Relay for Life tonight and didn’t get a chance to. I had a blast and I hope more will come by and still take a look. I’m brand new so bare with me as I don’t know exactly what I’m doing.. lol

    Many Blessings to all..

    Thanks for a fabulous UBP ‘09!!!

  15. I am so new to blogging I don’t have a clue what I am doing and don’t really have the time to find out what I’m doing wrong. For Pete’s sake, I don’t even have a theme for my blog yet. Is that nuts or what.
    At any rate I have a post up and maybe I can win something. I am definitely saving the blogger list because there are so many interesting blogs that I want to revisit.

  16. Happy Mama says:

    hey thanks for hosting the UBP this year it is my third year…i wish i would have gotten a better chance to know more bloggers but we have been so sick
    Thanks again for hosting! I did have fun with the blogs I visited!

  354. Sarah Eliza says:

    I figured “not so family friendly” just meant not a mom-blog (quote-unquote) and possibly non-family related stuff. I didn’t think it meant rated R or anything… here’s hoping I haven’t just gotten myself blacklisted! ;P

    Also, I was a little confused about the facebook linky… But oh well.

    Love the party! Looking forward to some hard-core clicking…

  355. Jennofer Kerr says:

    My blog post is here:
    http://themadwhitewoman.blogspot.com/2009/03/ultimate-blog-party-2009.html

    I’m a family friendly site (or at least I think so) and you can find me on twitter here:

  394. Is it still possible to get in on the party?
    I’d love to participate, but
    the Mr. Linky under the “family friendly” blogs
    appears to have disappeared, and I don’t really
    fit into the other categories. Thanks.

  395. AWESOME party! I’m having so much fun 🙂

    I am really impressed by the number of bloggers participating & I am so excited to see my graphic designs on SO many blogs! (very exciting!) I’m having a blast “meeting” new friends & checking out these different blogs. Who’d of known there were so many “mommy bloggers” out there?!!

  425. Woohoo!!! So excited to be joining this year! Just getting ready to put up my blogpost for Monday morning! Can’t wait to start in on all the fun!

  426. I seem to be craving attention lately, and my “real life” friends don’t ever leave me any comments. So thanks for offering this chance to meet some web friends who hopefully will leave words.
    I already visited one page that I will positively be visiting again, so if nothing else… I found something! This is a great idea!

  427. Honestly, I haven’t won anything since I sold a bunch of magazines back in first grade…I’d be proud of any win! Great idea!

  428. This is such an awesome idea! I’m so excited to be a part of it. I can’t wait to visit some of these terrific blogs. I’m going to be here all night!

  429. Stephanie says:

    This is my first UBP and I am really enjoying it! What a great idea and thanks for hosting it!

  430. Danielle J says:

    So I feel bad! When I got on to add my url to Mr. Linky I didn’t realize that they were in groups and I add my link to the twitter section, then I realized it but the Mr. Linky for the family section was missing so I added my link to the Non family section, then today I saw the Mr. Linky for the family friendly one and added my link but with one to many w’s in my address so I had to add it again! Anyways, all together I posted my link 4 times. Sorry, I hope you don’t think I’m just trying to shamelessly advertise my blog in all the wrong sections! I’m just really bad at the whole Mr. Linky thing. I guess him and I have a love hate relationship! Thanks for the UBP!

  444. Thanks for hosting this party! I’m about to go do my post!

  445. Well I am finally here. I have been under the weather and then up on the roof with my hubby building a porch roof but I finally got to the party (you will have to excuse the messy hair and the smell of sweat). I have been meeting some new people and some interesting blogs. Off to shower and to bed early but will definitley be back again tomorrow to enjoy more fun. Good job ladies!!

  446. I am new to blogging, so I’m still learning.
    I’m loving this party though :O)

  447. What fun…have to go find prizes!

  448. Cheryl Free says:

    I’m enjoying the party, but it’s a little frustrating to stop by blogs that either don’t have a party post up or you have to dig and search to find one. I’m at 153. Betsy and can’t find a party post to comment on. I’ve been trying to go backwards to hit some of the newer people first, but it looks like it will be more rewarding to start at the top and work my way down.

  449. Thanks so much for hosting the party! This is my first time being part of it, and I’m excited to get to meet some of the other party-goers 🙂

  450. Cheryl F. (The Lucky Ladybug) says:

  454. me again, I signed in under twitter but don’t have one, anyway to remove that? so sorry

  455. Elizabeth says:

    What a great party! Thanks for hosting!

  456. Shannon G says:

    In my entire life, I never knew there were so many fantastic blogs. I’d rather read blogs than websites any day, anytime. Thanks for offering so much. You girls are amazing…and many of us are obviously grateful. God bless you!

  457. This party is awesome! great job!!

    Wow this is way fun

  464. Well… I’m more of a reader than a blogger, but I’m trying to get into blogging a bit more. Maybe this is the little push I need to start REALLY blogging… As of now, my blog is simply a place to share giveaways and other blogs! I’m not even sure if anyone reads it. xD

  465. Enjoying the party!!!

  535. Ryan Ashley Scott says:

    I realized a little late that I didn’t do this quite right – I listed my blog (#41 under “not so family friendly”) and put a URL to my main page. I just posted my UBP’09 party post and put up the link to THAT one instead, so you can delete my first one (#41) so it won’t be confusing – or so no one else finds out how internet un-savvy I am. 🙂 Sorry and thank you.

  536. I’m ready !! This is going to be great….!

  537. I’m so happy to be a part of this big party! I was a little “party challenged” at first… but I’ve gotten the hang of it…. what fun!!!

    Thanks for the great party; seems the older ya get, the less parties you’re invited to. I’m getting out my go-go boots, fishnet stockings, mini skirt…whoops, make that a maxi skirt…crocheted vest…now I’m ready… Just kidding…what a visual that made 😉 (and ya wonder why I don’t get invites…hahahaa)

  541. Very cool idea! looking forward to reading all of these blogs!

  542. Wow I can’t believe how many links there are now! I am seriously never going to get to sleep! My children will be neglected (not likely considering their expertise in being able to get my attention quickly.) Did you ever think it would be this HUGE!?!?!?!?!?

  543. I didn’t mean to leave my name twice but I am so new I thought I better add my site name to my name. How long will you keep the friends list up on your site??? I want to keep getting through these fantastic sites and not just 20. I am brand new to blogging and am finding some awesome bloggers and info out there. Please keep a reference page with links to all of the friends above!!!!Thanks for everything you do. It is just awesome info for the newbie!

  601. This is my first Ultimate Blog Party… I think I may have not done the whole Mr. Linky thing correctly – I didn’t add my blog party post permalink – just my regular blog link. Is there any way I can change that?

    I’ve been “tweeting” about the Party! I created the hashtag #UBP09 – hopefully that’s the one you would like us to use. If you want something different, can you put it in this post and I’ll make sure I reference it going forward.

    Great party! I’m so excited to connect w/other blogging Moms! =)
    Thanks so much,
    Kate

  903. Hello,

    This is going to be fun. You ask us to put what prizes we would like to win. There are so many good ones.
    Here are a few numbers I liked:
    #4 t-shirt from tootieBean, #5 Core fitness, #18 t-shirt, #21 target gift card, #37 Premium Pedometer.
    I hope I did this the right way. If not OOPs. I do not need to win anything really. I am just interested in meeting more people.

  1361. Thanks so much for hosting the Ultimate Blog Party. This is my first year to participate. I am so excited!

  1362. Well done, ladies! You know, that Twitter pre-party was an unexpected treat. How very “new media” of us, right? 😉 Now…goodnight!

  1363. Lightening says:

    Wow – this is my first time. I had no idea it was going to be so much fun! It already feels like a real party. I heard the word party and was like “I’m there!” 🙂 Looking forward to making some new friends in the next week. Thanks for all your hard work.

  1364. Thanks so much for hosting this great party. Glad I could attend this year!

  1365. Mudpies And Mary Janes says:

    Thanks for hosting a great blog party! I am going to check out everyone’s posts now.

  1366. What do you do if you messed up your Mr. Linky as in accidently put it in the wrong category – I added it to the correct category but I would like to be removed from the wrong one…thanks in advance!

  1367. I’ve been waiting for this party,so excited! Thank you so much for this amazing blog,you ladies are wonderful and keep me going!

    God bless

  1368. Great party! It must have been a lot of work, especially with the site crashing and all. But I just wanted to say thanks for doing it! I’ve enjoyed reading the posts, so far and finding fun, new blogs!

    Thanks!

  1369. Happy ubp09!!!!

    Um… and is there anyway you can delete a linky? The automatically filled in boxes screwed me up. I knew I shouldn’t have stayed up past midnight!!!

    If you can… delete family friendly #92 A Madison Mom Blogoversary Giveaway… that’s not really correct. No giveaway on my party blog. I don’t want to disappoint. Going to bed now so I’ll stop babbling.

  1370. Suzanne B. (Crunchy Green Mom) says:
