Suggested Meeting Topics: Nutrition, Vaccines, Child Development, Making Your Own Baby Food, Fashion, Skin Care, Interior Design, Personal Finance, Infant Massage, Love & Logic, Prenatal Care & Fitness, Marriage & Relationships, First Aid & Safety, Children's Literacy, Entertaining, Holiday & Children's Crafts, Gift Ideas, etc.
What To Think About For Each Meeting: Some of the meeting will take place in another location and will not be a standard meeting. For example, our September meeting will be our first "Date Night." For a standard meeting, please consider the following:
(Keep in mind, these are simply suggestions and we are not asking that you bring one from each category. Contribute as much as you wish! )
1. Gift Swap-Do you have a gift at home that someone else might find more useful? Bring it for our gift swap!
2. Pay It Forward-Have you read a really great article recently or any form of information that you would like to share with the group? If so, bring 20 copies to share at our next meeting!
3. Hot Tips-Have you heard of any fun fund raisers, cooking classes or any "Hot Tip" you want to post on our bulletin board to share with the group? If so, bring your tip with you to our meeting!
4. Idea Swap: Depending on the topic, it would be great if each guest brought an idea to share for our group conversation. Get your ideas down on paper and bring it along with you to the meeting to present to the group. If possible, make 20 copies to share or just bring your original and we can distribute copies for you at our next meeting.

Lately, I have been getting sleepy around 3/4:00 and have found that a cup of green tea gives me some zip and helps me get through part two of the day!
This was a tip I got from another mom...keeping few toys, puzzles and other activities out of eye's view. Then, on a rainy day, we bust out a new set of books or toys...the kids feel like it is Christmas! And they are entertained with their new items they forgot about.
I also have a bin that I store all of our b-day favor bags, and other random small gifts and trinkets. These items are busted out for long doctor appointments, restaurant dates, etc. The kids always love a new trinket to play with and it makes the time go much faster.

I'm both a working and SAHM and I'm not sure I'm an expert at either!! :) I pay a housekeeper to clean and that seems to make a big difference, freeing up weekends for me. I also find if I can plan dinner the night before and have something for the Nanny to put in the oven at 4:00 life is SOOO much better when we do both get home from work...but that's a challenge!
Oh crap, I was logged on to my Google account through a client again, so aspiro is really Kelly O. ;)
