The Kiddos of PEPS

I recently joined a PEPS (Program for Early Parent Support) group. The groups are made up of first time moms and are geographically based. They meet weekly for 12 weeks in the homes of the group members. I was lucky enough to be assigned to a group with a lot of other professional women in their 30’s and it’s been fun so far. It’s amazing how you bond with people when you share a major life experience like figuring out how the heck to care for a newborn and keep yourself sane at the same time! The group has been something I’ve really looked forward to each week. We share our highs and lows and our leader covers a topic, and then it turns into an open forum to find out what other moms are doing with sleep patterns, starting solid foods, treating a stuffy nose, etc. What a help it has been! A couple of weeks ago we had all of the babies wear their Christmas outfits so that we could take some pictures. Check out Olivia going after Emily’s hat! Beckett’s just a cool dude hanging out on the end 
