Mom & Me

James and I have been going to a Mom & Me group through a local baptist church. It meets every Wednesday morning at different locations. Sometimes they meet at the church just to play, other times it's a local park, and then sometimes they plan outings to places that cost some money.  Our first time meeting up with the group was at a local pumpkin patch.  It was so cold that day, and windy.  We still had fun, and I got to pick out a pumpkin for James. 








 
Our second trip with the group was to one of the moms in-laws horse farm. The little kids got to ride horses which was really fun for them. Obviously James was too small to ride a horse, but he did enjoy getting to pet them.
 



 


This week the group met at a park and then went to get cider from a local farm.  James got to swing, and really enjoyed it.  I'm not the only one with an infant which is nice. It's so nice to get out of the house and have conversations with other mothers.  I don't mind messing up his schedule once a week so that he can be around other people and I can enjoy time out of the house. 

I am happy that I found this group and decided to go to it! I'm not a shy person but when I don't know people I can be. So it's a big deal for me to go to a new thing where I know no one.

    It is very hard to make a connection when no one talks to you. Hopefully you can find a good group soon! It took me a long time before I was willing to put myself out there and just go to the group.
