Hi everyone!
So you might have noticed that the October MOPS newsletter did not come together. Jen and I were both traveling and dealing with family issues, so we were unable to get it together this month! So sorry.
But we're back on track for November! The deadline for articles is Monday, October 26th. We need two MOPS members to volunteer to each contribute an article (150-250 words) for the November issue. The theme: Thankfulness and Gratitude.
If you would like to contribute, please email Meghan at mepremohopkins[at]gmail[dot]com.

Children's Items Swap
Just a quick reminder that our next MOPS meeting on the 22nd will be a Children's Item Swap.
If you have gently used clothing, toys, beds, etc. you can bring them to New Life Lakeview and drop them off during the week from 9am-3pm (Mon-Fri). Otherwise, you can bring them the day of the swap.
Along with the item swap, we will also have some MOPS moms and MOPS graduates showcasing their creative talents. Heather will have Tori's Bitty Bows represented and available for sale, Dani Schurman will have slings and wraps... And More!!!
If you know of anyone outside of the group that would like to attend the swap, invite them along! Even if they aren't a mother of a preschooler. All are welcome to this event!
Look forward to seeing you there!
God bless!

Self Defense & Children's Items Swap
Hello October!
Is it me or does it come sooner and faster each year?
It's time for MOPS again this week!
This Thursday, October 8th, we will have a self-defense instructor come and show us some moves and give us tips on how we can better protect ourselves and our families. Should be fun!
**DRESS Comfortably***
Our 2nd meeting in October will be on the 22nd. We will be having a children's clothing/items swap. So bring all the random items you have but no longer want or need and pick up some new-to-you ones! You can bring items to this week's meeting and we'll begin to sort and organize them.
Look forward to seeing everyone Thursday! God bless!

July 9th @ Whealan Pool - 11am
Hello Mommas & Friends!
This Thursday we are heading to the pool!
We will be meeting at The Pool at Caldwell Woods (6200 W Devon Ave, Niles, IL).
The pool opens beginning at 11am, so that's when we will gather. There is a small fee per person for admission into the pool ($5 per adult, $3 kids 4-12, 3 and under are FREE).
If you are planning on coming, great! I, Erin, will have my cell phone on me ** 765-404-4139 ** if you need to find us or help getting there. Feel free to invite friends along, mommas and non-mommas alike.
The forecast currently looks clear on Thursday, but in the event of rain, we will meet at New Life Lincoln Park to let the kids play and run in the gymnasium. (1110 W Lill, Chicago, IL 60614). I will send out an e-mail Thursday morning if it is looking like we will be at Lincoln Park instead of the pool.
Look forward to seeing everyone! God bless!
