Mommy Meet Up

I realize that the further along in this pregnancy I get the less I blog. I just wanted to let you know that it was not because I am stationed on the couch watching baby shows on TLC and the Lifetime Network. It seems I am somehow crazy busy these days. Sure I watch my fair share of baby shows, but I am also teaching classes, hosting parties, going to clothes swaps, decorating nurseries, cleaning windows, having house guests. It seems like I am doing more in the last few weeks than I have in the last 9 months.

One of my favorite actives as of late was hosting a Mommy Meet Up. I started thinking I have so many friends that are either preglet or have small kids we should be getting together every so often. Some of these moms don’t know each other and their kids are super close in age – I smell a play date. Here are the pictures of our first meeting this past Friday at my house.


All the preggers ladies in order of due date. Ya that's me at the end big as a house. I only have 6 weeks left!


Le Babies all born about 2 weeks apart.


Have you ever tried to decipher the instructions to a Metro Wrap? You need a Phd so I was glad my mother was there to help. I used Chris’s old Oscar the Grouch doll as a guinea pig because I was scared to use one of the real babies for fear of faulty wrapping.


Jen is preggers with baby numero 2, Gretchen holds her first wee little girl and Erin is in the family way with her first baby.


Jen and Chasity had a picnic on the kitchen floor with their adorable little boys.


Finally another view of the belly line from the front in order of due date.

So don't think for one minute that I am not blogging because I am being slack, I'm not blogging because for some odd reason I'm swamped busy!

  5. Carin I agree we need to take this same preggo line up picture each month. Guess I only have one more month to be included but I have feeling there will be some peeps in line behind you in no time. Can't believe I didn't get a picture of Sophia.

    So glad you came Jen, your boys are a-doorbell!!!!

  14. Jen,

    Saw Vickie at CHA, missed you being there, but I have to ask--what's in the water in Austin!? Congratulations and keep me posted on Li'l Whip's arrival.

  15. Seriously Linda people at my baby shower were afraid to drink from the tap. The same thing seems to happen with people getting married it always comes in big clusters of people.
