Play Groups!
Posted by Chelsea on Sunday Dec 7, 2008 Under InfancyI’ve been going to play groups with Lucy. It’s really more of a time for the Mommies to talk and get out of the house but lately the kiddos have been interacting a bit more.
Here is Lucy on November 21st with a friend (this picture makes me sad because Lucy has grown up so much since it was taken!):
Lucy and a friend on December 4th playing. At one point she grabbed his hand and he tried to put it in his mouth-too cute!
And then on Friday (December 5th) we went to a play group with 4 other babies. The Moms decided to torture the babies and line them up for a picture to compare their sizes.
Ages, from Right to Left: 3 months 1 week., almost 4 months, 2 months 2 weeks (Lucy), almost 4 months, and a little over 4 months.
As you can see, Lucy is the same height as the 4 month olds!!! She’s just much more petite than they are and doesn’t have nearly the strength that they do. They can all stand (with Mommy helping) and hold their heads up. I tried to stand Lucy up with them and her legs were like jello. She can hold her head up for a few minutes but these kiddos can hold their heads up indefinitely.
I wish I would have gotten pictures when we fist started going to play group because these kids were seriously twice her size!!! It’s amazing how much she’s grown-it’s going too fast!!!

Hi Audrey,
I found the play group through the San Mateo mothers club which I found via Google. I’ve met some really nice people through the mothers club and I’m really glad I joined. Hopefully there’s one in your town too!
