Here are those playdate pictures…
Filed Under Fourteen Months, Playdates | 5 Comments
Last week I hosted a pool/outside playdate at our house for some friends. It was so great to hang out with everyone and just relax and watch the kids play. And drink margaritas. I love having fun stuff to do with Bailey and her friends. I feel like I am usually the one trying to think of things to do though- I wish someone else would plan something more often. I am always afraid my ideas are going to suck or not turn out well. But this one was okay.
Here are a few pictures from that day. There were six babies, a two year old, and a six year old. I think it worked out well despite the random group of kids and moms who didn’t all know each other. Here is Bailey in the pool with Shaloma.
Bailey really likes Pringles- not that they are the healthiest choice but I feel better about her eating those than other crunchier chips that she could choke on.
Kaitlynn, Bailey, and Adele
“Welcome to my house!”
“You can come in if you want, but then we close the door.”
“Seriously, guys, the door MUST be closed. If you don’t listen, I will just squish you in the door.”
Oh, and after the playdate? Bailey discovered that she could put her finger up her nose.

I totally know what you mean about feeling like you are always the one doing the planning! I feel that way with our adult friends too. I plan game nights, BBQ’s, swim parties, etc. for the adults and the kids. I wish someone else would step up for once and I could just go along for the fun. But then again when you are a good planner, people just wait for you to do it again and again! You can’t win! Ha ha!
Tara, your captions for the house pictures have me cracking up here! LOL!!!
Aww! Those are too cute!!!
I too seemed to be the only one planning things when my kids were young. I think that sometimes while other moms love the opportunity to participate and almost always say yes, they just don’t believe they have the know how to make a plan and then execute it. Even as an adult, I am often the one who initiates social outtings with my friends. I enjoy socializing and so I’m ok to make the plan.
I keep thinking I am going to be brave enough to plan something and then something seems to come up or I just forget. One of these days I’ll get it together. But for now, I am glad you take initiative to plan stuff.
