I am the mother of…. listos? Ocho! I have four boys and four girls. Three of my boys are now teenagers, two girls are pre-teens, one boy is 8 and the other two girls are toddlers! I also homeschool my children. I have kept a diary, which I call just that, “A Mother’s Diary” and I would love to shae this with you all. Life with such a big family can be quite a challenge…. sometimes I feel I could send videos to America’s Funniest Videos worth a whole month! And sometimes I feel we could use the Super Nanny here! My only problem…. I don’t have a website… yet. Maybe by the 29th, las veo!

SO feel free to get in touch when you can and I will be sending the info on the 29th Thanks…Gracias

I stumbled across this sight today while searching for bilingual books and I must say it is nice to have somewhere to go to express concerns ,or ask questions and get answers to them. My husband is bilingual and I speak english. We have 6 kids ages 8,5,3,3, 23 months, and 4 months. We try very hard to incorporate both cultures/languages into everything we do. We celebrate the holidays in both cultures. We eat both styles of food. It isnt easy but I would absolutely love to contribute whatever I can.

Great idea. Have you considered having contributors who write in Spanish? Since this is a blog called SpaniglishBaby, it would be great to have access to Spanish posts as well. Thanks for a great blog! .-= Esperanza´s last blog ..#feliz2010 =-.

Thanks to all for your interest! We have already received several submissions and can’t wait for the ones that will be coming in the weeks ahead. Please remember the deadline is Jan. 29th.
Also, I wanted to clarify that you don’t have to have a blog to become a SB contributor – I just fixed that part in the post above. We just thought you’d like to know that if you do have a blog, becoming a contributor will be a great way to promote it!

Hola…wow! This is such a great idea…I have two sons and a step daughter. We are all from Puerto Rico and my sons and husband have been in Texas for almost 10 years now. My stepdaughter comes every so often and lives in Florida. My kids came here when they were 3 and 5….now, oh my gosh! they are 12 and 16! All of them speak fluently both Spanish and English…and we all love to cook. I have a small restaurant – a Latin Fusion – so I’ll be sure to add some recipes here and there. I’ll marked it in my calendar to post something by the 29th.

I am interested in this… Hijole, Deveras que si!…I am a stay-at-home mom of two kids. My son just turned 2 and my daughter is almost 4. I only speak Spanish to them, and my husband English only. Yes, he is a gringou and I’m a very spicy Mexican gal. He is a civil engineer and I’m an artist. Coming from very different backgrounds, our household is never the boring one on the block. My husband and I disagree about a lot of issues when it comes to the kids…but at the end of the day, we are a family of a mixture of personalities, tastes, and temperaments…who love each other very much. did I say who has the spiciest blood? I do not have a blog, I only have time for Facebook (sometimes, and thanks to the iphone) and twitter (almost never). I think I could handle the once-a-month commitment to share our experiences with the other readers…I certainly see myself being one of your contributors.

I have three kids (6 1/2, 4 1/2 and almost 2) and we are a bilingual Spanish/English family. I have been looking for online resources since we began this journey almost 7 years ago and was delighted when you started up. I do not have a blog, but would be willing to write articles if you have something you are looking for more input on. 6 1/2 years in I appreciate how much it helps to hear from others.

saludos,
