Calling ALL Moms

Today I was hanging out with Jenn at her parent's house and Morgan and Sienna were having so much fun playing together...that got me thinking...and Jenn and I talking...we want to start a play group!

Morgan really does not play with other children his age except for nursery on Sunday. I really think it is important for him to interact with other children so he can learn social skills, to share, and make life long friends(Jenn and I went to preschool together and now look at us)!

This invitation is open to EVERYONE and we hope many of you will want to be a part of it. I really have no set plans or have any idea what direction this is going...I am open to any and everything. I work until 12:40pm Mon~Friday so late afternoons work best for me. I was thinking we could meet once a week...maybe a Thursday afternoon...and each week someone takes a turn planning the activity(ie: going to the park, swimming, or playing at someones house). I want this to be casual and something we look forward to, after all this is a great way for us mom's to catch up with each other! So please share your thoughts and let me know if you are interested.

Kathryn- you sure you want me to plan the activities? You are talking to the person who couldn't even get us to the Sante Fe movie theatre without getting lost/sidetracked!

That sounds like fun. Cole loves watching other little kids play and he is starting to learn to walk a little. I like to get him out of the house too.

Katie-We would love for you and baby Carson to come...I can get my baby fix through him!

Mandy- I totally remember you and your two boys are too cute. It would be so much fun to have them and you join us! Can't wait till august...

Candace-I am so glad you and Cole are going to be a part of the group. I have never seen Cole in person...only through your pictures and he is so darling!

So far the group consists of:
Kathryn
Tara

Hey! I am coming too! More for my play time than for the girls! But if Carson and Austin are there then they can look at each other until they are old enough to play with each other! I can't wait to hear what you plan! Please email me the details! Kathryn you forget that you are a really good planner too!
