Carrie McGinnis makes some funny hats. This mother to two (Finnegan, 4, and Claire, 4 months) can turn your kid into an adorable animal, one helmet at a time. The cuteness of the fox helmet is almost enough to make me want to move back to a cold winter climate.

When not creating magical wonders for your kiddos' heads, McGinnis provides us with videos of stellar baby tricks on her Kiddos McG blog. I highly recommend a visit to Finn & Claire when you're in need of a pick-me-up. If this parroting video doesn't make you smile, you might need some medication.

Living, working, and playing in the Pacific Northwest, Carrie is a mama with some serious mojo. Check out her amazing work and her amazing kids and see if you don't fall in love with the adorableness that is Kiddos McG and Finny's Funny Fleece.

Novelist and mom to two boys (Peter, 4, and Phoenix, 16 months), Jennifer Clark decided she had some spare time to pick up a new hobby -- crafting.

Unlike your traditional craft blog, Clark is new at this, and invites us along for the ride as she discovers her inner 4Her.

Unashamedly struggling with sewing challenges, she puts it all out there on meremade: the good, the bad, and yes, even the ugly. Luckily Jennifer Clark is a reduce, reuse, recycle kind of gal so even the mess-ups find their purpose.

Inspiring and entertaining for the average Etsy shopper and seller, you're going to want to jump into meremade now, so you can get the full experience of Clark's crafting evolution.

I'm in awe of moms who find time to work out. Moms who find time to work out, inspire others to do so and write a book, Hot (Sweaty) Mamas: Five Secrets to Life as a Fit Mom (in stores April 2011) make me re-think my complaints of being soooo busy when that Pilate's class rolls around and I'm still sitting at my computer.

Kara Thom is that hot sweaty mama of four -- count 'em, four -- children including three daughters and baby boy. She writes on Mama Sweat about being a fit mama and how you, too, can achieve better health through moving your butt. Luckily Kara does it in such a way that you find yourself laughing and relaxing your shoulders in preparation for a good run instead of clenching and wondering who, exactly, does she think she is?

For these and other feats (including convincing me I need a head lamp and posting adorable pictures of her baby) Kara Thom is our Baby Mama of the Week.

Here's what she has to say:

We're all big fans of Indie Home Ec here at The Stir. Holly Mix can make making your own nursing cover sound easy and look fabulous. But we still love her. Really!

In addition to her domestic design advice at Indie Home Ec, Holly's upcycled jewelry at her Etsy shop will make you empty your wallet -- and pronto.

When Holly brought home baby Rhys, I knew she needed to be recognized for her great style, fun blog, and ability to be back up and running so soon after Rhys arrived. She went to Disneyland with that baby, y'all!

Check our her blog, her shop, and her adorable baby boy. Heeeeere's Holly!

Our Baby Mama of the Week:

JJ Keith, mom to the adorable in many situations baby Bea, has another baby on the way, a sweet dog that's not feeling so hot, and a landlord situation.

All of this would be enough to make a normal woman curl up under the covers and await her due date, but JJ chronicles it all relentlessly and hilariously on JJust Kidding.

Whether debating the double stroller issue or pondering the end of Lost and life choices, JJ writes what you're thinking, but more cleverly.

The Mummy Diaries is not to be read if you don't have some spare hours on your hands.

Kathrine Holland's addictive prose and hilarious, honest take on the world of moms, neighbors, and entertainment will keep you clicking until you've also forgotten your child's birthday.

Whether teaching her own mother about camel toes or setting the birthday party ground rules, Holland gets right to the point in a pants-peeing way (or in a husband-farting kind of way -- yes, you have to read this).

This Aussie mum of baby Connor and his big brother Noah doesn't pull any punches in The Mummy Diaries. And for that, we're naming Kathrine our Baby Mama of the Week.

Baby KailaYou don't have to live in the Hawaiian islands to enjoy Kailani's blog, An Island Life, but it sure would be nice, right?

This mother to three daughters, Kacie, (age 8) Kiana, (age 4) and Kaila (age 7 months - pictured, so cute!!!), Kailani is also a flight attendant and obviously, super mom.

An Island Life will not only give you a thorough review of every baby product you ever wanted to check out, but offers a holiday shopping guide and incredible information about entertainment, lodging and food when you take your island vacation.

Of course we get also get to know Kailani's lovely daughters whether we peek inside their birthday parties or the (sniff!) first day of kindergarten.

For this information packed blog, that also allows us to imagine what it would be like to raise children in paradise, Kailani is our Baby Mama of the Week.

Photo from Jacqueline FauteuxRocket lunch is a perfectly mixed food blog where Jacqueline Fauteux shares family recipes and dishes on the local food scene. (Especially helpful for a new Los Angeleno.) If you aren't inspired to cook an Italian pot roast or experiment with pasta carbonara after clicking on Rocket lunch, then I can't help you. I really can't.

In addition to her Thomas Keller obsession, Jacqueline's other love is 18-month-old Felix, who is a lucky beneficiary of her culinary feats. They live and eat with her husband in sunny, foodie, Los Angeles.

Meet Jacqueline Fauteux, our Baby Mama of the Week.
