To Be or Not To Be


So, it is with some embarrassment that I admit that I signed up to attend an "Expectant Moms Event" today. I have a friend in the city who's gone to a few and raves about them, but she is also Super Mom and actually enjoys researching stroller types and the newest and greatest in highchairs. I can't help it...I'm not there yet.

The event is being held by a group called Big City Moms (http://www.bigcitymoms.com) and it promises to provide me with "tips on what you should bring to the hospital with you and what you should expect the first 3 weeks home". Okay, so I feel like this is the expectant equivalent of joining the stroller jogging group (I might plan on doing that too. Shh...), but I feel like I need to at least give it a try! Best case scenario, I meet a bunch of other women who are giving birth around April and are also looking for New Mom Friends AND I win a stroller (their site swears you can!). Worst case scenario, I get a bag full of goodies, a good dinner, and information overload. It's worth a try, right?

  2. Oh god no! I seriously do not understand the melted chocolate bar game. There is nasty and then there is plain wrong and I think this game falls into the latter category. The first time I saw it was a a restaurant - we got stuck sitting next to a baby shower and they were all playing. Blech!

    The event is near 3rd and Lex on 84th somewhere. I am scared...Can you strap on a fake belly and come with??
