Second Meeting

We had a great time again today! There were 2 new moms who joined us and we decorated picture frames with ribbon and stamps. We took one frame home and donated another to the Butterfly Boutique for this year's Joey Jog. Ten moms brought in baby pictures and we all had to guess who they were. There were quite a few tricky ones!!




Next week, we are meeting at Halyburton Park for a playdate. Bring a bag lunch and a friend!!

Our First Meeting

Today was our first meeting! I don't know about anyone else, but I had a great time! There were some technical difficulties at first (email down, DVD player not working, etc.), but it all turned out all right. Here are some moms making their name tags and here is the 2 year old class having snack.
We had 14 moms and 17 children. There was a table full of goodies to eat and we got a chance to chat for awhile. Pastor Donald, Lisa and Claire came by to introduce themselves and we had some discussion time. We watched the MOPS DVD and then worked together at our tables to answer some rather tough questions about amusement parks. (Do you know what a pachyderm's hearing organ is or a dwelling place for reflection???) :)

Next Tuesday is our first Mom's Night Out. Join us at Kelly's house for a kick off party!

Fit 4 Fun Playdate

Our last play date was this week. Six of our moms met and there were 13 kids! Fit 4 Fun is such a great place! There are so many big toys, plenty of room to move around, and then 2 rooms, one for painting, stamping, a water table, gluing, coloring, science and another with snacks, train table, kitchen, books and smaller toys to keep everyone busy.
Hopefully we'll have another play date here soon!

Summer Playdates

This summer has flown by! We have one more Wednesday play date next week to Tregembo Animal Park. We've been to different pools, Lewis Strawberry Farm, played by the Cape Fear River and took the ferry to Southport. It was nice to keep in touch with moms and friends this summer and we look forward to seeing everyone in September for our first meeting!
