It is wonderful to be recognised for the work I put into my blog. The same day that I found out I had become a finalist in the\u00a0Vuelio\u00a0Blog Awards was also the day that a journalist in the Daily Fail called me a \u201cnauseatingly smug yummy Mummy&#8221;. I love that my blog is still relevant and engages so many people.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I had no idea I&#8217;d win. It was great to be shortlisted with such amazing bloggers, such as Sarah Turner with her best-selling book and Emily Leary whose recipes regularly grace the pages of national papers and magazines. I was pretty floored when I found out and it has been a huge confidence boost.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel that winning best Mum blog is a great way to bring my blog to new eyes. I do not write my blog for recognition, but it is amazing to receive an award for it and is a great source of credibility. I am blogging in an\u00a0increasingly crowded sector and winning helps me stand out from the crowd. It may even be the deciding factor in someone wanting to work with me.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Being an industry\u00a0award really gives the Vuelio blog awards gravitas and the fact that there is a panel of judges makes me feel that I won on merit. They have a super reputation.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following her recent win, Jen chatted to us about the opportunities she has received since winning a #VuelioBlogAward and why it has given her blog  Mum in the Madhouse, more credibility. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":423,"featured_media":97274,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3729,4038,7223,1449],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97269"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/423"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=97269"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97269\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":98986,"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97269\/revisions\/98986"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/97274"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=97269"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=97269"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=97269"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
