Park Playdate

Today Ellie and I met our small group of Mops at a local park for a quick get to know you gathering prior to the first official meeting next week. We are one of ten in our small group, and the only one with only a baby. The day started off very hectic - why is that it takes twice as long to get ready when we have a destination with a time? It was in the low 60s here so Ellie spent much of the park time in her stroller under her blanket. She enjoyed the stroll and meeting the other older toddlers. We ended the gathering with a walk around the lake where we saw turtles and a couple of ducks. I can't wait until next week. Mops will be the first time that Ellie is in baby daycare for more than the one hour at the gym once a week. I hope that it goes well, and we get better at getting out the door on time.
