BiBs Finalists 2012

Drum roll, please. There has been furious voting, loads of fabulous blog nominated, lots of online chatter and tens of thousands of votes cast in the Brilliance in Blogging awards. We tallied it up and are delighted to announce the BiBs finalists!

Next up, the lists will be reviewed by the BiBs judges and the winners announced at BritMums Live! It will be an evening you won’t want to miss. We’ll kick off with a BiBs Party, with juice and “mocktails” supplied by Welch’s and wine supplied by Radcliffe’s Wine — along with some cheeky surprises. Then, the winners will be announced at the BiBs ceremony. (Don’t miss the entire two days of BritMums Live! Get your ticket now so you can debate, learn, discuss and party at the biggest gathering of parent bloggers in the UK!)

In the meantime, congratulations to our BiBs finalists and all the bloggers who were nominated!

    Wowie! I can’t believe I’ve made it through as a finalist! Thanks so much for everyone who voted for me, I really am quite gobsmacked!

  3. Katie Vyktoriah (SnuggleBubby) 08 May 2012 at 14:18 #

    I, too, am gobsmacked. I never expected to be a finalist, and I am SO unbelievably excited about it. Though I must admit that I’ve shed a tear because I am no longer able to attend BML due to our last minute decision to move to Florida. :( If I think about it too much, I get really weepy. I can’t be a BritMum anymore! :( *sniff*
