Favorite Instagrammers Pt.1

Hey guys,

I have really been more active on my Instagram account than I used to be. I try to post when I have a new blog posted at least. I like watching Instagram stories and I do have some favorites. I'm gonna do a part one and part two because I don't want to make this post long. 

Planningongrace (Account): Kate is someone who wears multiple hats. She's a mom to three adorable girls, a wife, a nurse on the maternal newborn unit and she recently became a YouTuber. You should go subscribe to her channel. She posts grocery hauls, vlogs and holiday videos. She has a question and answer video so you can go learn more about her. If you're a planner, then she's a great person to follow on Instagram and YouTube as she posts videos about planning and also shares pictures on Instagram of her planner. 


Laurmcbrideblog (Account): Lauren is a blogger who's due with her third child in February. Her son and daughter are adorable, and she and her husband are a cute couple!  She also has a YouTube channel, which you can find here. She posts tutorials and other videos.  You should also go subscribe to her blog. She also has additional social medias, Facebook, Twitter,and Pinterest.  


Lynzyandco (Account): Lynzy is also a mom to two cute daughters and a son.  Her blog is located here, which she has a lot of different sections that I'm sure that everyone would enjoy.  She has a section on her blog where she posts pictures of what she's wearing and has links to all of the clothing so if you like a particular shirt, etc. you can just click on the picture of it, and the specific store and item will come up. You can find her on her other social medias accounts,Twitter,Facebook, and Pinterest.   


Courtney_Shields (Account): Courtney is a new mom and her daughter is adorable. You can find her blog here. She also has many sections that  anyone would enjoy reading. Like Kate and Lauren, she also has a YouTube channel. She has a variety of videos ranging from beauty to gift guides to pregnancy. Besides Instagram and YouTube, you can also find her on Facebook, Twitter,and Pinterest.


You should definitely go follow all of these ladies and also their YouTube channels. They are all great at what they do.

The Impact Of Social Media

This month is Social Media month and these days, there are so many social media sites out there.There's Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, Google+, and more. When I was younger,I remember having Myspace and then Facebook became more popular. Kids these days are growing up with social media earlier and earlier. I believe I got my Facebook back in freshmen year of high school and now kids in elementary school have one, which I have my opinion on that,

I have heard of people going off social media for 24 hours and to be honest,I don't think I could make it the whole 24 hours. That sounds really bad but when you have grown up on it and is on it everyday,then it would be a hard habit to break. Could you go off social media for 24 hours? 

Facts about social media:

• Ninety-two percent of teens report going online at least once a day, and 56 percent admit they go online “several times” a day. This means only 8 percent of teens are able to resist going online every day (Steyer, C., 2015)
• Seventy-one percent of teens say they use more than one of the following social networks: Facebook, Google+, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, Vine and Tumblr (Steyer, C., 2015)
