Dinner out

I drove up to Toronto on Friday night for our bi-monthly dinner out for adopting mom's in the area. It was a smaller group this time with 7 mom's adopting from Vietnam and 2 adopting from China. Summer time is busy so I guess a lot of the others couldn't make it this time.

It is a long drive but always well worth it to spend time learning more about the program, talking to those who understand how hard the wait can be and share good news such as photos of my one friends sweet baby boy referred a couple months ago.

I'm guessing at the next dinner (in September) there will be at least 2 more mommies with their baby referrals and then hopefully a few more the dinner after that (me included please, please, please).

I had the best pasta, some sort of angel hair pasta with jumbo shrimp and mass amounts of lobster - HEAVEN! We did a little bit of shopping beforehand but I was very good and only bought C a pair of pj's that were on sale at the Disney Store.

Yesterday my friend Melissa had a pool party at her place to celebrate Murray (her husband) and Savannah's (her daughter) birthday. It was a hot muggy day and the kids had a ball in the pool with all their friends.

Today it is looking dreary. I guess it is a clean the house and do laundry type day. Bleck.
