By Goddess in Progress ·   January 7th, 2009

Alright, y’all.  It’s that time.  It’s De-Lurking Week, according to some in the blogosphere, and I’m all over it.

delurk5

That means you, college friend who clicked through Facebook.  And you, people who keep visiting from France (and Luxembourg and Texas).  Comments are what keep bloggers going, so make it a point in the next couple of days to leave a little note with every blog you read, so they know you’re out there.  Seriously, it makes us feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

In exchange, I promise to post a comment on every new blog post I read today.  That includes all the ones in my Google reader, and everyone else who leaves their blog address here in the comments.  Last year, I managed 28 comments on De-lurker day.  Can we hit 30 this year??

    Okay, I’ll comment, though I hardly think I qualify as a lurker…

    I believe you know I’m here but I have definitely been terrible about leaving comments lately. I go through my Google Reader on the iPhone and I am the world’s worst typist on that thing. So I never comment anymore. I’m going to make that a resolution: leave more comments!

    I am a loyal reader and I try to comment as much as I have something to contribute. I am a twin mom and found your site through “How Do You Do It?” which I think I found through google. My blog is just starting out since my babies are just 3 months old now!

    oooh! Thanks for letting us know…I might have to post as well – I see people coming in off of Facebook all the time and other random places. Might be nice if I were thrown a comment or two ;)

    and ah…ya, perhaps I should lurk more often :D

    I have been a lurker for a while. I first saw you at Babycenter when we were all just pregnant. My daughter was born 8-16-07, shortly after your twins (I think they were early Aug ..). You make me laugh, inspire me as a new mom and offer great recipes! Thanks and keep it up!

    Have commented in the past, but as a Boston area MOT with girls the same age as your twins I love reading up on their progress … and yours too. :) Also impressed by you taking the kids out in the snow — we have been hibernating for weeks!

    I’m not actually de-lurking, I’m new to your blog and comment often. But probably not often enough. I feel like I haven’t totally caught up yet, but I’m getting there. Thanks for visiting me, too!

    Officially de-lurking. I have 14 month old faternal b/b twins. I read your blog (as well as HDYDI) all the time. Also, I’m a formal Chicagoan now living in Seattle. I often struggle with the thought of moving back to be close to my family. Thanks for sharing a little bit of your life with us!

    Hey Lurkee! I credit your blog with totally confusing a MOT at a kid’s party when I said, “Of course, I know what a twin sale is.” Considering I was the only non-mom there, I don’t think she believed me. :)

    Missed your delurker day last time, so here goes :) A twin mom here as well, all the way from Finland :) Found your blog when I was pregnant with my fraternal boy/boy twins – and that was more than a year ago, they’re now 14 months old. Love your blog and the pics!

    Not totally a lurker, I’ve commented before, although not often. Made it here from the Nest a long time ago, I have 20 month old twin girls, love keeping up with the twin-mom world enough to know that I’m not alone.

    France here. But I’m not a lurker! I leave comments sometimes – ditto on HDYDI, which is how I also found you. You guys are my twins group since the one here in Paris sucks (excuse my french). Daniel and Rebecca are six months older than my guys so it’s nice to see what’s on the horizon for me. Plus your upbeat attitude really helped me through some ddddaaarrkk days those first few months. Keep up the good work!

    Hi! We have communicated a few times through the old BBC August 2007 Multiples. My twin girls are about 1 week younger than your kiddos. I love to read your blog. We actually have a lot in common. I get your sense of humor and hope you keep blogging. I enjoy reading a few times a week.

    I’ve been reading your blog ever since I found you over on hdydi (which I love btw). I have b/g twins who just turned 1 and I enjoy reading about all your goings on with your kiddos:) Good stuff.
