Cribsheet Cafe 2

And now, the update you’ve all been waiting for - the Cribsheet Cafe report!

Java Train was perfect for our little gathering, which drew out several Cribsheeters and multiple kids. As with the first Cribsheet Cafe, it was soooo nice to put faces and voices to online monikers. We felt like we knew everyone already, even as we met for the first time.

For those of you who told us you who couldn’t make it because you were out of town or otherwise busy, we’re plotting another get-together in late September. We may even make it a happy hour (gasp!) for a change.

Cribsheeters, we loved getting together with everyone. This really is an amazing group - an island of sanity and tranquility in the crazy blogosphere. 

Watch this space for the next gathering.

Happy HOUR! (sorry - see I got so excited I hit the enter button!)

So bummed I missed this! It DOES sort of feel like we all know each other via our blogs doesn’t it?

I am soo thankful to have cribsheet to ‘turn to’ - it’s nice to know I’m not alone when my kids are naked, angry, dirty, hungry, looking for something to do!
You guys are an awesome resource!

I’ll get someone else to pick up the munchkin for a happy hour gathering. It would be fun to chat without kids running off.

Sad I missed, too. Maybe we should have a cribsheet bbq? I have a small park three blocks from my house with grills, a playground and a wading pool…
