American expat moms?

[JBoylen]

I can meet then, sounds great!

[veryseriousgirl]

Peckham Rye cafe sounds great - near the wooden animals so that the toddler can run around? 10:00 works for us.

[Sacha76]

Works for us as well! I haven't met any of you so I don't know who I'm looking for...

[notesink]

Last time I just listened for American accents! I have short brown hair and will have a red bugaboo buggy with baby in tow and an almost 4 year old running around. I may recognize a few people, so lets just meet outside the cafe where the kids usually run around and I think we'll find each other :)

[Sacha76]

Sounds great! I was actually going to say I would just listen for the accents. 😊 I have a black iCandy and long brown hair. Really looking forward to meeting everyone.

[veryseriousgirl]

I have medium length brown hair, will wear a UT sweatshirt for easy identification (and I know notesink!). I also have a red bugaboo and will have a seven-month old boy and nearly three year old girl with me.

[JBoylen]

I have a 14 month old who will be running from me. I have a slight Boston accent, straight brown hair and sporting black MacLaren.

My name is Jessica BTW.

I have a gym appt which normally I would skip but have thrown out my back which means I have to rehab it at the gym per doctor's orders SO I will be a little late- probably more like 10:30 but hope to catch up with whoever is there! Looking forward to it!

Hi, another American here. 6years in London now, arrived from SF. I've got a 5yo and 2yo and would love to meet up with others. I can't make this Friday but would hopefully be free next time.

[twinsmom]

I can't make it this Friday but I would love to meet up. I work full time but normally one day a week from home (this week it is Wed). Is there anyone who would be up for meeting on a weekend?

[Dr De Soto]

Hi, I'd love to meet up. Three days a week during school hours, it'd be my 2, almost 3, year old daughter and me; otherwise it'd be my 9 year old girl and 6 year old boy as well. Weekends are trickier given juggling everyone's schedule. Maybe we could do one of the days you work from home, twinsmom, and see who else can meet up then too. Does a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday work for anyone?

[onefifty]

Hi Dr De Soto, I can do any of those days during school hours with my 2.5 yo daughter. Busy this week but free next week.

[Dr De Soto]

Hi, onefifty, how's Wednesday 26th, 1pmish? Anyone else free then?

[onefifty]

Sounds great. Where shall we meet? I'm near Forest Hill pools/horniman, you?

[veryseriousgirl]

We could come along a bit later on Wed - our naptime here finishes around 2.

[JBoylen]

I'm free Wednesdays (my daughters naps are all over the place) anytime. I am by Peckham Rye Park ut don't mind a bit of travel.

I went to the cafe last time but did not find any Americans hanging about. Hopefully I find you this time. :)

[Dr De Soto]

How about the playground across from the Horniman?

[Dr De Soto]

Hi, weather forecast tomorrow is pretty dire--we could decamp from the Horniman playground to the museum if it is raining. Notesink, VerySeriousGirl and JBoleyn are you all still free about 1 (or 2 in your case VSG)? How's the venue sound?

[JBoylen]

Bugger! My daughter has a belly rash and we have an apt for 12:10pm.

Have fun, we love the museum!

Next time.

[veryseriousgirl]

Oh no - I have managed to double book Aisling and her "best friend" is coming over for a playdate. Will be more organised next time!

[Dr De Soto]

Sorry to miss you all. Next week full on, but hope to get together the week after that--Monday to Wednesdays are best for me.

Just found this post when I did a search for Forest Hill Pools, but I wonder if you are the American mum (sorry, mom) who I have chatted to by the big yellow slide in the Baxter Field playground. My little girl loves that slide (or used to before she turned in to a total wuss over night).

hi- i'm late in joining this group, but am thrilled to see so many american's around. I'm a philly girl myself and we've lived in ED for a year. I have a 2yr old and one on the way (Jan). I really hope to make the next meet up.

i just got my absentee ballot for the presidential election in the mail. Wish i could manage to stay up to watch the returns.

warmly,

karen

My Mom's in town next week but I'm around the week after. The belly rash turned out to be nothing, I am such a worry wart.

Hi - am sorry I missed this thread from the start, but how exciting!! Especially if people want to share NFL package ;)

I'm from Indiana (and NY), and I've been in London for about 6 yrs now. I have a 10month old son and would love to meet up if you guys plan another !

Is there a mailing list or is it all scheduled here? hmm, what would a mailing list look like... [email protected] ? :-)
