Hey, everyone!

It's been a long time...

Seems like lots of folks have Monday as a free day in busy summer schedules.

We haven't had any group meet-ups in so long.

Wondering if there is any interest in going the the Nature Playground tomorrow.
We could say 10am (or earlier if you're motivated); and I was thinking it would be nice to pack lunch and make the most of it.

What do you guys think of organizing a regular Monday meet-up? 
Doesn't have to always be Nature Playground if that is too far for some. Could also be afternoon.
Just thinking back to the glory days of our weekly meet-ups.

Hope to hear from you!

Wahh!! We miss you all so much!

This email made me so wistful for those beautiful Brooklyn summer days spent in the park! Miss you all so much and would love to have you move to Maplewood!

I love the idea of a meet-up but mornings don't really work for us. If it's possible to have a casual meet-up on Fridays afternoon I would love that. We could even meet at the BeerGarden....

We can always have 1 morning option and 1 afternoon option!

Beer garden on a Friday afternoon sounds lovely.

I can do tomorrow and would love to reignite the regular get togethers. (Plus I have sadly never made it to the beer garden!)

Paula - Natalie Ben and I are in for the nature playground it happy to pick another location.

Love the idea. Tomorrow I have childcare at the Y, and we are on a trip the following week.  I do also love the idea of beer garden meet-ups :)

I am on maternity leave again and would love to join on any afternoon meet up, park and beer garden both sound fun. Fridays are particularly good as I can keep going to those even after I return to work. We are in town all of July.. 

Hope you all are enjoying the summer so far.

Hi guys
Nice to see there are still some people left on this list!  

I am going to be home this coming Friday afternoon with Benjamin and could make a Friday meetup.  This is a one off for me but would be great to see some of you!

How about we also meet this Friday afternoon at Greenwood?  I theoretically have one napper still, so we could realistically get there around 4:30 (they have a sitter til 3, though, so there's a chance neither will nap, and I could get there earlier). If others want to meet earlier, we could just meet you there.

We'd love to try to meet Friday.
I'm thinking we would need to go a bit earlier, though.

We've started cutting out Dario's nap, in preparation for Pre-K, and also because he goes to bed at an ungodly hour when he naps.

Without the nap, he's asleep by 7:30! 

He also has camp until 1 on Fridays, so if he's not crabby and worn out, maybe we could be there by 4?

We're around and would love to play, so whatever is decided we'll try to make it!

Maybe we can start at 4 and people can arrive as able?  

Would love to discuss nap-cutting (initiated by parents). Elwyn didn't nap Saturday, and he was atrocious for 2 days. On the flip side, Harper dropped it on her own, and we now have an easy-peasy bedtime with her. The joys of different sleepers!

Hi, everyone:

We're going to plan on heading to the Nature Playground tomorrow, hopefully for around 10.
We'll pack a lunch and hope to tough out the heat to eat lunch there.

Hopefully, we see some familiar faces!

Hi All,

We moved from London in January and happened to meet Robin outside Connecticut Muffin with the kids. She kindly invited us to join your group as our youngest, Luca, is a Fall 2012 little-ee.

We have been in London for the summer so far but now we are back, we'd love to come along and meet some of you and hopefully find a playmate or two for Luca.

Would you mind if we joined you one Monday or Friday? We are around today but I imagine it is too late for today's get together?

My cell is 347 264 9755 if it's easier to contact us that way.

Hope to meet some of you soon :)
Love Francesca
Mum of Luca (4 on 21 Sep) and Finn (just turned 6)

Welcome to Brooklyn, Francesca!
Luca and my son Julian have the same birthday!
Despite the best of intentions, I've not been able to make any of the get-togethers this summer, but I'm hoping to go on Friday. It would be lovely to meet you, and of course your a welcome to join us.
