In the mean time, we'll have a playdate the last Thursday of each month June-August. Be on the lookout for details!
Thanks & God bless!

Children & Nutrition - 2/11
Good day, ladies!
I hope everyone was prepared for all the snow we recieved last night. I must admit it's nice to look out my window and see a pretty, white world.
Just wanted to let you know that we have MOPS this Thursday! We have a guest speaker joining us from Swedish Covenant Hospital. One of their professional dieticians will be coming to speak with us about Children & Nutrition - and I'm sure several key items about nutrition for us moms as well.
I'm looking forward to hearing what she has to say on the topic.
That's it for now. We'll see everyone Thursday morning. God bless and have a great day!

MOPS Christmas Party
Hello Ladies!
I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving!
I just wanted to let everyone know what's going on with our Christmas Party next Thursday, the 10th.
We will be having a Christmas Gift Exchange. Bring a gift valued between $5-$10 (no gag gifts, please). We will draw numbers and have a "stealing limit" on the gifts...so don't become too attached to what you get ;o)
We will also have a Cookie Exchange! This is optional, but if you don't bring cookies, you probably won't get any to take home :o) We ask that anyone wanting to participate bring 3 dozen cookies. **Please don't wrap or package cookies as we will be dividing them up onto trays to send home with you. If you aren't a baker or just don't have time in the end...store bought cookies are welcomed in the exchange.
Other than the Gift & Cookie Exchange, plan on enjoying some time chatting and snacking with the other mommas. Feel free to invite friends along for the fun!
Look forward to seeing everyone next week! God bless and have a great rest of your week!

Hosting a Formal Dinner
Hello Mommas!
It's time for MOPS this Thursday, the 19th. (I honestly cannot believe it's almost a week from Thanksgiving!!! Yikes!) Time flies when you're busy :o)
We have the joy of our MOPS Mentor - Robbie - talking to us and sharing her wisdom about something dear to my heart...and stomach; Holiday Meal Planning. Or simply planning, preparing and hosting a formal dinner.
I love to cook and have people over for dinner. Some ladies find this intimidating, especially with small children "in the way". We hope that what Robbie shares will be helpful and ease your mind when it comes to cooking and hosting stress.
Be on the lookout for information about our Final Meeting this Semester! December 10th will be our Christmas party at MOPS and we have some fun things planned.
Give Thanks and God bless you all!

Car Seat Safety
Hello Ladies!
We're breaking away from our normal 2nd & 4th Thursdays of the month during November due to the upcoming holidays.
Our November meeting are the 5th (This Thursday) and the 19th.
This week we have Commander Joe Miranda of the Chicago Fire Department coming to speak with us about car seat safety and proper installation.
It should be an informative presentation and beneficial for everyone regardless of what stage or age your children are.
We look forward to seeing everyone this Thursday! Remember, doors open at 9am and we'll try to begin as close to 9:30 as possible to accomodate our speaker's schedule.
Thanks and God bless!
