Our first play group...

So now that Isabella is 10 months old, I figured it was about time for us to get out and meet some other moms for me and children for her to play with. There are so many to choose from here in Highlands Ranch that I had a hard time picking. I went on a "groups" website and found 2 that I thought would be great. We meet with the first one on Monday and we both really enjoyed ourselves. We went to a place called "Little Monkey Bizness". It is all indoors and they had a little area closed off for children 2 years and under. Here are some pics of Isabella enjoying herself.







































































She climbed in here all by herself. Also, this little boy thought she was just the cutest and actually gave her a kiss. I didn't think Daddy would be very happy about her getting her first kiss already. :-) He was sharing his football with her. :-)

On Tuesday, we meet with another group and we really enjoyed them as well. So now we have a ton of things to choose from to get us both out of the house and for both of us to make some new friends. We will probably host a few play groups here at the house as well. Ben has already said he will go into the office on those days. :-)

I also had to add this last picture that I took this morning. Isabella has been fighting naps these days and usually I have to bounce her on our stability ball to get her to fall asleep and then I can lay her in her crib. Well, this morning she not only didn't feel good from teething but really fought the morning nap. So we played and took a warm bath to calm her down. While she was eating her breakfast, she just couldn't keep her eyes open any longer...

What a sweetheart you are Isabella! It looks like you had a good time at this play date. Now is no time to give up your naps - Mommy needs them too much! It is hard to wait to hug you again, but 15 days is not too long. Be safe and take good care of your Mommy and Daddy:) Love, Mimi
