Just a side note, our trip to Chicago this December has been postponed to a later date.   More later on our options.

Many have asked for a "Just for Moms" night out.  Char and I were thinking it would be great to get together and have time to discuss any adoption/parenting  concerns,  or just have fun.  We can meet at Char's office and bring an appetizer.  Char and I will provide drinks (non-alcoholic mind you).  Let me know what you think.  

See you soon,

Welcome to the official site of the Mommy & Me Playgroup!

Welcome to the new home for the Mommy & Me Playgroup!

Our group is for China adoptive families who are in the Grand Rapids Metro area, and this is the place where we will post information about upcoming playgroup activities (along with directions and admission prices, if any).

Please bookmark this site and check it frequently, though we hope to have it linked to the CCGGG (Chinese Cultural Group of Greater Grand Rapids) webpage.

We'll continue to post photos at the secure invitation only Shutterfly website. If you are a member of the Mommy & Me Playgroup and have not been invited to view the photos of our activities, please email Kelly at us3ch2@aol.com for an invitation.

Let the fun begin!
