Play Date

I've been feeling rather cooped up lately, I know it's my own fault, I've just been too lazy to do anything. I try and get Maggie out of the house at least once a day, even if it's just the 4 block walk to the duck pond or a walk to the library when Dave gets home. I feel guilty on the days when we just stay at home, since she loves to go outside so much.
Now that our house is 'semi' put together, I decided to invite some friends over for lunch. Once in a while the 4 of us will do a girl's night. We'll go out to dinner or a movie with no kids, it really doesn't happen enough if you ask me :) . This time we let our little girls hang out with us too.
Maggie was in heaven having other kids to play with. We went up to feed the ducks and took them on a long walk. Then we came back here for some food.
The other day on a talk show they were discussing the growing trend of 'happy hour play-dates', apparently there are groups of women who get together and let their kids play while they drink wine and visit. I couldn't help but think of this as our kids played while we sipped on our 'Diet Coke' that I bought special for this occasion. I promise, I'm only a social drinker.
