Hey there!

It was fantastic meeting you!

Make sure to stop by Sippy Cup Mom, where I write about the adventures of raising  an energetic and rambunctious toddler! I also write about everything from movie  reviews, travel destinations (family-friendly!), the latest technology, giveaways and  more!

When I’m not blogging, you’ll find me spending time with my family, my nose in my  Nook, planning my next Disney vacation and cheering on the St. Louis Cardinals!

Since you’re already on your phone right now, make sure to download my iPhone or Android apps!

You can also find me on Twitter at @sippycupmom and on Facebook at Sippy Cup  Mom.

Thanks so much for stopping by to learn more about the Sippy Cup Family!

I’m Melissa and I’m currently a work at home mom and blogger. I was a retail manager for over 5 years, until I decided to stay home with my son and start the blog Sippy Cup Mom!

Sippy Cup Mom is where I write about the adventures of raising an energetic and rambunctious toddler! I also write about everything from movie reviews, travel destinations, the latest technology and more!

I work closely with my husband on Mitchell Applications, where we develop apps for the iPhone, Android and Windows Phones. We believe that having my blog available on all platforms fits right in with my passion for social media.

When not blogging, you can find me spending time with my family, planning our next travel destination and Disney vacation and cheering on the Stl Cardinals.

I have been featured on Show Me St. Louis, showing off the latest celebrity mom trends and worked hard to raise money for the community of Joplin, Missouri by creating Bloggers for Jopplin.

I love connecting with fellow bloggers and have attended Blissdom 2011, Disney Social Media Moms 2011 and the Show Me the Blog Conference in St. Louis.

I’ve worked with fabulous brands such as Kleenex, Serta Mattresses, Disney, Toyota, Little Tikes and Dockers!

I’m currently in a partnership with the Microsoft Windows Blogger program, the Midwest Verizon Bloggers program and an ambassador for Jockey.

A social media addict, you can also find me on Twitter at @sippycupmom and on Facebook at Sippy Cup Mom. Be sure to stop by and say hello!

Sippy Cup Dad, also known as Heath is my husband of 5 years and we have been together for almost 10 years. Heath has been a retail manager for over 10 years!

When he’s not working, he is creating apps for bloggers and small businesses with Mitchell Applications. There, he develops apps for the iPhone, Android and Windows Phones.

Heath enjoys spending time with his family, watching Cardinals Baseball, grilling, swimming and walks. He loves staying up on all the latest tech news and is always in the know.

You can find Heath on Twitter at @MitchellApps and on Facebook at Mitchell Applications!

Sippy Cup Kid, also known as Hayden is a rambunctious, energetic and loving toddler!

He loves to sing and dance, travel with his family, play outside and swim.

Mickey and Phineas and Ferb is a favorite of his, but he is a fan of almost all cartoons!

Hayden loves to give us hugs and kisses and can out eat you in strawberries any day!

Hayden’s not quite on Twitter or Facebook just yet!

Zoey is our mixed lab. We are not sure what else she is mixed with! She’s almost 4 years and old and is the most loving dog you’ll ever meet!

She loves licking Hayden, running around in the backyard, long walks, chewing bones and snuggling.

Thanks for stopping by! I would love to connect with you! Make sure to email me at sippycupmom@gmail.com!

I would love to represent your brand at a conference!

I’m passionate about the companies that I work with and when you work with me I will be the face of your company while at a conference. I’ll be out there networking with women and moms, telling them all about you!

I offer different levels of sponsorship and would love to share ideas with you!

Email me for a copy of my Media Kit or any questions you have.

Conferences I have Attended in 2011:

I attended the Blissdom 2011 conference in Nashville, TN on behalf of the Kleenex Brand. Blissdom is the premiere conference for women who find and express their bliss by publishing online. Speakers and panels featuring the best blogging, public relations and social media pros gathered to mentor new and old friends alike.

The Disney Social Media Moms Conference was in March 2011 and was 3 fun filled days of of learning about social media from fantastic speakers mixed with family fun. We experienced special events, conference sessions and private parties all at the Happiest Place on Earth!

The Midwest Moms Media: Brands and Bloggers Summit was held in Chicago in Juy 2011. Put together by an amazing group of women, this event helped build and bridge successful alliances between  bloggers and brands marketing to women and families. A power-packed full of Chicago’s (and beyond) most  influential bloggers and marketers who are serious in making professional and successful relationships with  each other. I attended the Midwest Moms Conference on behalf of Verizon Wireless.

BlogHer ’11 brought together over three thousand attendees from all over the world to share hands-on  learning, rich discussions, opportunities to meet with the brands that support them and plentiful networking  opportunities. BlogHer is open to anyone and everyone who considers themselves part of the blogosphere;  BlogHer is particularly focused on highlighting the skills and talents of women who blog. I attended BlogHer on behalf of Serta Mattresses.

Upcoming Conferences:

There are several upcoming conferences in 2012 and I would love to represent your brand!
