Adelaida's First Playdate

Adelaida had her first playdate on Saturday, with a little girl named Shreya who is almost two months older than Adelaida. At two and four months old, the girls were really too young to realize that they were supposed to play with each other, but they did spend some time looking at each other.

In fact, the girls' playdate was as much a playdate for the adults as it was for Adelaida and Shreya. We enjoyed spending time with Shreya's parents, Tom and Varsha. We ate lunch together at our house, took a little hike in the forest by our neighborhood, then played a boardgame. It was so nice to talk to other adults, and especially to talk with other parents who were going through so much of the same excitements and challenges that we've been dealing with.

At one point, Varsha and I walked into the kitchen to find the dads holding the babies up on the counter, pretending to stand up, so they could look at each other. A definite Kodak moment!
