Play Group

 This play group is called Square One.  It's put on at a church and is for first time moms and their babies.  One of my friends at school told me about it because her mom runs it.  It started right before Pearce was born and goes for 6 weeks.  This was only my second time to go, but I soooo wish I had gone earlier!  My pediatrician scared me a bit about being around other babies when Pearce was brand new, but honestly, I think it would have been ok.  Oh well.  The idea behind this play group is that the moms meet each week for 6 weeks and discuss different topics.  Then after the 6 weeks is up, hopefully we will continue to meet.  We talked today about continuing this group on our own.  Although I've only been twice, I really felt a connection to these girls and they were all so welcoming!  We all had bean bags we sat on and made our own little "station."  You could feed your baby, change his diaper, lay him on a blanket....whatever you needed to do, all while listening to our topic.  We all had a chance to go around and share our thoughts.  It was so fun!  Here are pics of a little photo shoot we did today with the babies!


Pearce was the youngest in the group...look how tiny he looks!! 


The baby on the left is Lucy.  She's sooo cute and chunky!! 


Lucy and Pearce kept looking and looking at each other!

  3. What a great way to "broaden your horizons" and meet other new moms that you wouldn't have gotten to know any other way. I think it's a great opportunity. Mr. P and Lucy do seem quite interested in each other. LOL He looks so tiny compared to the others. Every day he seems much more alert and interested in everything. I think he's on the verge of smiling, too.

    Love you all,
