Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

why is mckmama so popular?

who is she? was she a nestie at some point? or is she just a blogger who became popular because of the nest? was she known before she had a sick baby?

i dont get the fanfare around her (or the likes of matt logelin for that matter).

please enlighten me.

Re: why is mckmama so popular?

  • It appears she is just another dooce wannabe. Or something. I clicked on her blog, saw some cool photography, read one post, and decided it's not my kind of thing.

    I don't get it either.

  • I clicked the link.  Her kids are cute, she seems full of herself, and I'm not really interested in reading about her life.

    This.

    And the McDonald's thing she has going on irritates the hell out of me. MckNugget. MckMama. MckFry. I despise that, no matter who the person is, and I will never find it cute.

    ETA: And I get that it's because of her last name, but I still think it's irritating. 

  • I'm not a big follower (obviously if I couldn't recognize Stellan) but I started reading a couple weeks ago when he was in the hospital again and it got really scary. I do appreciate Stellan's story (they were told while she was pg that he would most likely die before birth or immediately following) and root for him.

    i had no idea who dooce was until i google just now. i got through 3/4s of the way through one blog entry and realized that i cant stand her. she is not as funny as she thinks she is. 

  • I couldn't get past 1981 in her life story.  BORING!!!!!!!

  • I could be wrong (very wrong) but wasn't she the lady who had a little fly swatter to spank her kids when they wouldn't say I love you?  Is that someone else? 
  • there's an anti-blog about her.  they pretty much call her a complete farce.

  • Would someone mind hooking a girl up with a linkie?  I would like to judge for myself. ; )

    i am pretty sure that is somebody else. her blog was either deleted or private now.

    my cats name is micky mckitty, but he was born in a mcdonalds parking lot. so unless her children were also birthed at a mickey d's i think she's so bizzare with the nicknames. especially considering she in a way is pimping out her family, then trying to remain anonymous at the same time. makes zero sense to me.

    Thank God!  I was hoping I was wrong about that!  I think I just remember that they each had a bunch of kids on the side panel of their respective blogs.

  • I made it to 1996 when she started talking about ger GPA ... and then started rolling my eyes.  Seriously?  Who gives a fark??

    Your cat is a cat. You're not walking around calling your child "McShake" or something equally ridiculous.

    wtf?  does she really think people care about her life story?

  • zzzzzzzzz.

    She's the AWiest of the AWs. ?And sorry....one of your four children is really not that cute. ?At all.

  • She does seem pretty holier than thou.  I skip the posts of random pics of her kids, making almond milk, or mystery trips.  I just follow Stellan's stuff.

    That photo makes me laugh and want to vomit all at once. 

    Also, her take on vaccines makes her sound like a tool. WHO is this woman?

  • Is there a pic of this woman on her site? I only see her douchey DH and her kids, some of whom are cute. That bio is obnoxious. No thanks.

    The people on CBB are arguing that she made up the story of her kid. I'm guessing she's for real? ?

    Celebrity Baby Blog. They ran the People lookalike winners yesterday and there were comments about Stellan and how she might have made it all up. That was the first I'd heard of this all.

    Eh, I really doubt that. ?Her local news stations have done quite a few interviews, and I think I remember one taking place via satellite when she was at the hospital in Boston.

    I think she's lameass, but I don't think she made up Stellan's condition.?

    i agree. i dont think she made it up. and in a few of the blog pics you can see that he has some kind of wires or tubing coming out of his shirt.
