A Baby Reunion

As most everyone knows, being a part of Stroller Strides since Cammy was about 2 months old has been one of the greatest things I have ever done since becoming a parent!  It has provided me with a kid friendly workout, a huge network of mommy friends, friends for Cammy (and Hailey now too) and a group of women that I can always count on for getting advice and sharing my struggles and successes with.  This is huge as a new parent (and a veteran one too)!!

It seemed around the time we got pregnant with Hailey that there was just a HUGE baby boom at Stroller Strides.  SIX of us were all due all within a month and a half of each other beginning with my due date of Dec. 7th and going thru mid January.  The group started with getting all the preggos together for pedicures as we prepped for our babies to arrive. We enjoyed getting out for a little pampering and then occasionally doing dinner afterwards.  Having babies so close together and all being our second or third baby really seemed to bond us together.

At our first pedicure night...

Our bellies and toes in no particular order :)

So once we all had our babies I thought it was a must to get us all together again for a little baby playdate reunion.  I invited all the moms and kiddos over to my house and we sat around sharing our birth stories, admiring each other's babies and getting advice (and of course talking about who is on board for another baby in the near future).  And no baby playdate reunion is complete without a picture :)

Babies in order or due date...

Six babies all born within a month and a half of each other!!

Only the girl older siblings would cooperate for a sibling picture

And the best part about this little group of six mommies and our kiddos....we have already planned for our second baby playdate reunion in another month!
