Park Play Date

We had a few friends over for a play date after Preschool today and a good time was had by all!  The boys are getting old enough now that I (usually) can have an actual conversation with another mom while our kids are playing together--what a treat! 

We walked over to the park so the kids could play before lunch.  My friend,  Christine, was a super-mom and brought bubbles and a parachute to play with; both were a hit!  Another benefit of play dates...the awesome nap time that follows!  I love that the weather is getting warmer and we can get outside most days.  Summer, here we come!

 I somehow failed to get any photos of little Renee, but here is her big sister modeling one of the bubble fans.

The Playdate to End All Playdates

I hosted our playgroup play date this afternoon and boy did we play! I had nine girls from work and 18 kiddos here for over two hours. We played, ate, played, colored the sidewalk, blew bubbles and ate some more. When everyone left, Carter had a juice box and crashed on the couch. Davis had more treats than any 18-month-old should and was ready to play long after Carter fell asleep. It was a house full of crazy, but everyone had a good time. Hope we can do it again soon!

Play Date

Will, Mateo, Carter & Ellia




Yesterday, Carter & I went to the play area at Cherry Creek mall to meet some friends. Desiree & Jennifer, from work, brought their kiddos and we all played together before having lunch. They all loved running around and climbing on the breakfast foods. Unfortunately, Carter has discovered that if he dashes out the entrance, mommy chases after him! That gets old pretty fast & probably explains why I broke a sweat at the play date. In any event, it is great free entertainment...we go about once a week!
