Today John Brady had his first playdate with Lily. They met previously in the grocery store, where of course every mom runs into her other mom friends. My friend , Jacqueline, and I decided we couldn't keep talking about getting these two together any longer and scheduled a playdate for today!
I was very excited because I have known Jacqueline since 5th grade. We have spent a lot of time of time together over the years and created many memories. We have taken trips together, roomed together in college, had countless laughs, fun times, car rides from Tuscaloosa to Rome and more. So naturally after not seeing each other for a while we were exctied to catch up, we facebook and text often but haven't gotten together since the little ones have arrived.
We decided to meet at AYF(all year fun) on Broad St. They have a huge kids area with blow up jumping and slides....very thrilled until we find out....THEY ARE CLOSED! So with two toddlers hanging on the door handles wanting to go in it was time to think fast.
We decided we couldn't go wrong with Honeymoon Bakery. The kids both had chocolate chip gelato...I got a little of John Brady's. Poor Jacqueline wasn't as lucky because Lillian can feed herself well and decided she liked it too much to share more than two bites with her mom! We then went next door to see another friend of mine at work. Tiffany works next to the bakery and we knew she would love to see the kids. Tiffany is about 15 weeks pregnant and if she is anything like I was, I loved to see kids when pregnant because I would dream of my unborn child and what I had to look forward to. After about 45 minutes and the little ones dumping out 100 pens on the floor and running all over her office we decided it was time to go. We couldn't leave without getting a few pictures first. We snapped some quick photos outside on Broad St. and starting planning our next get together at AYF...next time we will make sure they are open.
Even though plans changed, it was great catching up with Jacqueline and
the kids really enjoyed playing/flirting with each other.
