I recently joined the MOMs (Mothers of Multiples) Connection in our area and we had our first group meeting last week. Translation for me....THREE hours of no babies! At the meeting, I sat with other moms of twins and higher order multiples that had children the same age. After the meeting, we all decided to organize a playdate and we got together today for our first playdate! There were a total of five moms and 10 babies all between the ages of roughly 6 and 9 months (9 boys and 1 lonesome girl!). The host of the playdate also has a daughter, Sophia, that was quite helpful in entertaining the babies. We had a great time talking and watching the babies interact. They were all exhausted and cranky by the end of the time, but I think it was probably the most fun for the moms to have someone else to talk with. I tried to get a couple of pictures. Not all ten babies are in the pictures because I was too busy comforting our cranky boys by the end of the time period to snap any additional pictures, but you can get the idea.

As we have said before, the boys love the jogging stroller. So much so, that John and I took them on their first run out in the rain over the weekend. We have a weather shield so the boys were cozy and dry, but John and I were a little wet. It rained most of the weekend so we all needed to spend a little time outside despite the weather.

Liam also has a strong attraction to our cat. He loves to watch ZuZu and could probably sit and watch her for hours if the cat would hang around that long. I told ZuZu that she is in big trouble once Liam becomes mobile. ZuZu does not exactly share the same fondness for Liam that he shows for her!
