First Play Date

We finally made it to a play date today. We were supposed to go to Heritage Park in Olathe for Earth Day but mother nature decided that the earth need a long, slow drink of water so we had to resort to indoors at the Oak Park Mall play area.

We met one mom from my SAHM (acronym deciphered: Stay-At-Home-Mom) group and her 2 boys. I also ran into a gal from church who was there with her 2 boys. It was a fun time, really nice to get out and socialize with other adults. Since Addie isn't big enough to play yet I held her the whole time. She just watched and smiled and laughed. It was so cute! She didn't have to play on the toys, watching alone gave her pure enjoyment. just watching must be exhausting because she fell asleep on my shoulder with her head tucked under my neck. It was really sweet. I am excited for her to be able to get around on her own and play with the other kids. I did learn a good lesson today though - never leave your baby carriers at home!! She is getting SO big so after about 30 minutes my arms were killing me! From now on, the Baby Bjorn or Amy's Moby Wrap will come with us everywhere we go.

Tomorrow is another play date! If it doesn't rain we're going to the zoo! Hopefully I can take some pictures and post them of our adventures.
