Womens groups? Moms groups?
OK, so i am just not "that" kind of girl. Never have been. Didn't join a sorority, never had a huge group of girlfriends and i have declined every mom's group or women's something or another that i've ever been invited too.
Except this morning.
The women of my church have this open invitation to coffee at this cute little coffee shop right by my house, every Friday morning they meet and supposedly there is a place for the kids to play.... they meet 9am - 11am.
This morning my kids were up extra early and already starting to whine... i was cold and a hot non fat decaf vanilla latte sounded really good.... so we all got bundled up and headed out the door at 9 sharp. Mind you, i am only 1 mile away. I was the 1st one there, nice. Then my mom showed up and only 2 other ladies. But that is OK, it was still fun and I am glad i did it. We left by 10:20 and came home so Mia could take her nap. My vanilla latte was everything i'd hoped it would be and the playroom was really nice. They had big cushy couches and chairs and a big fireplace too. Perfect!
So now we are home. The baby girl is napping, the big brother is watching sesame street, and i am washing the linens from my bed and the cushion covers from my white couch. Yep, i have a white couch even though i have 2 black dogs (they don't shed at least), a messy husband and my 2.5 kids. :) The good thing about white is that it doesn't fade.... so i just spray and wash those suckers when i need too. However, the arms of the couch are starting to look a little ratty (we've had the couch 4 years). but i love it nonetheless... it's big and cushy and comfortable with big curvy arms and is the precise style i've always wanted.
That is it from me today. Pretty boring. But my sweetie get's off shortly after lunch and is off until after Christmas, yahoo!!
Let the fun begin!!

I was surfing the web and just came across this website... so fun to read about you and your sweet family! I'd love to meet you one day, maybe become your friend, maybe your best friend! that'd be cool. well, come to think of it, you seem like the kind of person who already has a best friend... I bet she's really cool... maybe I can meet her one day. you think? or, maybe... just maybe I AM HER! I love it, Julie! Fun blog and fun pics!!!!!!
As an active member in the Pearland Mom's Club, I highly suggest you join something like that. Keeps you sane! You make some friends in the process as well. The kids get interaction with other kids. It is just beneficial for all. I was like you too, no sorority, no clubs. Just as a stay at home parent I think you need 'outlets'.
