We Love Thursdays!!

Ruthie and I look forward to Thursday all week long since its the day of our playgroup. I am so thankful to be a part of this group. There are 7 of us total plus our kids. Ruthie and Sophie are the only girls, they've gotta stick together.


There are too many things to list that make this group great, but a few are:
-Fun people
-Responsible parents who care about all the kids in the group
-Cute, fun kids


-baby friendships

-great food
-comedic entertainment by the kids

-Dancing babies
-non-baby and baby talk
-Other kids toys which are always great

That particular toy seems to be a hit!
-people to bounce ideas off of
-Did I mention cute kids?
-the list goes on and on
This past Thursday we did our holiday gift exchange and the Mom's did a cookie swap. We had a great time as usual.

Ruthie loved her gift and opening it

We attempted for a group shot (which always cues a meltdown :-) Poor Ryder! Usually a few are crying, a few are running off, a few are cheesing, and Ruthie is checking out the blanket. It is HILARIOUS.

Ruthie was totally fine until she toppled

then she was Done! (If you take a closer look at this picture and each baby's face, it is hilarious!)

Natalie and Canaan, super Hostest!

All the kids loved opening their gifts. They probably did love opening them more than the actual gift, it was super cute.

Ruthie's gift was a hit, everyone loved her Zoe (Jacki, every dachshund shaped toy, or even short and long, is named Zoe in our house. Now Ruthie and Chloe have a Zoe :-).

The cookie swap was delicious, there are some talented people in our group! Its a good thing we don't do it often, I can't resist cookies.

Even better, it usually ends with this sweet baby knocked out!!

Can't wait until next Thursday! Oh yeah, if someone could let the cleaning fairy know I'm hosting playgroup on Thursday and if she could should up wednesday around 5pm that would be awesome. Thanks!

Boy is Ruthie going to be confused when she meets the real Zoe then!! That's so funny!

The group shots are great. That's about how it goes! The toppling one made me chuckle, poor Ruthie! but I know you weren't hurt :)
