Playgroup with new friends

We have a small core group for playgroup, which is usually pretty good for the kiddos' sakes, but it does make it fun and exciting when new faces join us! We had three new mommy/tot duos join us yesterday: Liz and Alex (met them at our neighborhood park), Shelley and Logan (12 grade together), and Michelle and Zachariah (Legacy). I'm a firm believer that ALL moms need a support group and other moms to talk to, so I'm so glad they felt comfortable enough to come! In fact, other than Clara, Amber & Alexa were the only other "regulars" that would make it. 

The original plan was to take the tots to the park, but the thought of walking the 3/4 of a mile to get there made me nearly cry, especially after a day of already needing to use my hip too much, so everyone was really sweet and agreed to hang loose in the playroom upstairs. (Thank you ladies!)

The pictures aren't great because it's a bunch of toddlers in constant motion plus weird lighting, but you get the idea :)

Right before the dogs got banished to the backyard:

Snack time! Grapes, oranges, raisins and pretzels, yummm.

Add some puzzles to the snack mix!



Upstairs, the bus is always a hit with the small fry





Mr. Alex reallllly liked the stroller :)

Clara and Zachariah played (mostly) nicely with the princess castle for quite a while.

Cooking up some grub



can you spot the tiny naked baby in the stroller?
Even Daddy joined in on the action! (I love Fridays off!!)

Once all of our friends had to go, Lulu read Clara some stories.

And Clara made sure to change Baby's diaper in case she was dirty.

It was fun! (and busy!)
Love all of our sweet friends - mommies AND munchkins!
