First Play Date

Today Nathan had his first "play date" with his first friend, Thomas. One of the women in my birthing class, Elizabeth, is also a classics professor at K. We are in the same yoga class, and were friendly before the birthing class, but as a result of the class we realized that we have quite a bit in common. Prior to the babies arriving, Todd, Elizabeth, Matt and I had a really fun dinner together at the Corner Bar (we were excited that they are also big fans of cheap burgers and beer!).

This morning Nathan and I met up with Elizabeth and her son Thomas (born about 3 weeks before Nathan) at a coffee shop near campus. It was so much fun to get out of the house, to catch up with Elizabeth, and to talk about all the obsessive new-mommy stuff with somebody else who is equally obsessed! :)

Nathan slept through the entire play date, and Thomas was awake for about half of it--but the mommies had fun! :) It was a lot of fun to finally meet Thomas, who is adorable, and get a preview of all the development that Nathan will go through in the next few weeks (no wonder he's been cranky lately!).
