10 Bloggers to Read in 2017

Almost every year (when I'm not busy giving birth), I highlight my absolute favorite bloggers of the year. Because it's the Christmas season, and who couldn't do with some blogger love? Some are big, some are small; but all of them write authentically and I simply can't get enough.

This year, these 10 ladies (yes, they're all ladies. I guess I'm a sexist), are the bloggers who you should absolutely not miss!
