Play Date

I'm really looking forward to tomorrow afternoon.  We're having a play date with Kristin and her boys, Michelle and her boys, and possibly Nikki and Willow.  We're meeting up at Burger King for lunch and so the kids can play in the play area.  It's great because the kids will eat and play and us moms can watch them and visit.  Lauryn always gets a great nights sleep after a play date because she goes non-stop the whole time we're there, which really isn't different from when she's home, there's just more kids to run around with.  :)

Play Date :)

Today, Lauryn and I met up with a few of the Michigan Moms for a play date.  It was at a really nice park in Grand Rapids.  We got there a little late because I couldn't find it at first.  A Garmin GPS would have been handy today :)  Once we got there, we ate lunch and then Lauryn played.  I have such a hard time just watching her go off and run around with the other kids.  Not because I don't trust the kids, it's that she's a little daredevil and I am afraid if I'm not right there, she's going to get hurt.  I tried to give her a little space but it didn't last long :P  Here are a few pictures from today:







Being a little daredevil :P







Saying goodbye to Jodi :)



On the ride home :)

Fun Day

Today Lauryn and I met up with some friends at Center Pointe Mall in Grand Rapids for a play date.  I hadn't taken her there before and after watching the other kids for a while and after I took her shoes off :)  she finally decided to check things out and play a little.  I think she had fun.  It was nice just to get out and do something!  We've had such cold weather and so much snow lately that other than running to the grocery store, we've been pretty cooped up!  On our way home I called Lloyd and asked if he was in the office.  He was so we stopped in for a little visit.  His secretary, Wendy, really like that and it was nice to see her too!  She's such a sweetie!

For the past few years, I've been using the same kind of make-up and I really love it.  I have these really dark circles under my eyes and it has always covered them up wonderfully.  Well I don't know if it's motherhood or what but they seem to be getting worse and the make-up is not cutting it anymore.  I look way more tired than I am and that's never a good thing.  I have been asking around, trying to find out what's the best eye cream for that and I think might have to go out and buy some.  Getting older sure isn't fun!
