Hi All,
I'm new to Carroll Gardens (from Providence, RI) and would love to meet up with some moms of similarly aged kids!  In Providence, I was part of a very active moms group, and I'm really missing having regular outings with friends.  

A little about me:  I love brunch and boxed wine, at work I create training programs for financial advisors, and I spend way too much time on the internet.  A little bit about O:  He loves the swings and the sandbox, he's known as "the mayor" at daycare, and his favorite book is Little Gorilla.

I'm not sure if this group still meets up, if anyone is open to it, maybe we could do coffee and bagels at Carroll Park one weekend morning while the kids play?  I'm not sure how many of you also work during the week, but I've found this has made it difficult to meet up with the Meet Up groups I've found.

Please reply or reach out via email if you are interested!
Johnna (mom to Orion, Aug 13th baby)

Hi Johnna,

Our group hasn't met up in a while and I think for anyone who is still checking in to see if there is any action, it would be fun to meet up. I am actually not in the neighborhood anymore (just a bit further now in Clinton Hill), but would love to come back to the neighborhood and get the kids together. 

Summer is tough with everyone's schedules, but I will just toss out a date and see if people are open to bagels in the park:
August 3rd

If you are around and interested in meeting up, please reply to the thread!

Cheers,
Daniela
(Mom to Delfina, 23 months and baby brother due Nov 11th!)

Hi Daniela!
I'd love to meet up at the park and August 3rd works for us!
Let me know if there's any interest!
Johnna

Hello all,

We would happily join - let us know what time.
This would be great, because I feel as though it is the prefect time for our kids (and us) to be re-introduced as they are just now getting to a more social age.

I have hung out with Johnna and Orion several times and I have to say - they are awesome.  

See you then.
Barrie and Isaac

Erik and I would be up for it to. Would morning work (maybe @ 9 or 10)?  Also which park are people thinking? I might also have my older son and husband in tow, depending on what child # 1 has planned for that day.

Hi Everyone!

Definitely sounds like people are down - here's what I'm thinking:
Carroll Park 
August 3rd, 10am
I can volunteer to bring bagels and cream cheese if it's not too many RSVPs :)
Otherwise I may have to enlist more!

Looking forward to it.
Daniela

This sounds wonderful - Kai and I will be there (and maybe the hubs too)!  I can grab some pastries from one of the delicious bakeries around there on my way!
Look forward to seeing everyone again.

Don't want to share.

Have fun guys! We're bummed to miss you all!

So good to see everyone today!! Someone suggested a "standing date" maybe once or twice a month for a meet up. I'll start a new string with that...

Do Sundays seem like a decent day?

Happy weekend,
Daniela + Delfina

I enjoyed meeting you all!  Hopefully at future meet ups, O stays a bit more in one place so I can chat more!  I love the idea of a standing date!  Sundays mornings are great for us.

Hello all,

August is a hellish month for me in terms of work and I have to spend most Saturdays and Sundays chained to my desk.  Sadly, that kept me from joining you today.  I would love to join the next time - a standing date sounds awesome.  
I have been known to bake banana muffins in order to keep bananas from going bad (why do we always end up with too many at once or none at all?!) - I could certainly bring those to the next gathering.

Barrie,
Hope work is going well and we get to see you and Isaac next time!!  O asks for him every time we walk by your house!
And yum to banana muffins!
Johnna & O
