So Mommy Happy Hour didn't exactly go as planned. Everyone seemed to have something else going on but Nicole and I. We all have kids so obviously NBD, but I was a little sad. I was really looking forward to a nice afternoon out with everyone. We can try another day.

Nicole and I met at Lake Harriet and walked around then went to The Uptown for happy hour. She is a volunteer doula at Woodwinds (where I gave birth to Amelie), and got called in as soon as we ordered our 2nd beer. I hope she had a great time tonight. We talked a lot about natural childbirth and being a doula and I think that is really something I would really consider as a supplement to being a stay at home mom someday. Don't know what a doula is? Check out DONA International. If you are planning on having a baby or are pregnant, I strongly suggest finding yourself a doula. Especially if you are planning a non-medicated birth.

Tyler, being the loving fiance that he his, offered to take me out for a beer. Very nice, we went to Minnehaha Falls and enjoyed some Surly and the company of some ex-coworkers of his. We came home slightly after little Amelie's bed time and gave the darling girl a quick bath. Look at her pout lip, she's ready for bed!

I think we decided that we are going to try and participate in the Urban Assault Ride by New Belgium Brewing. Looks like quite a bit of fun.

For tomorrow, Farmers Market! Also, calling the pediatrician to see if my little is ready for a jog in the stroller.
