So Im a sahm to 3 kids , 1 is in grade 2, 1 is in kindergarten and the other just started preschool this year.. I am new to our town and dont know alot of people and our other moms... I cannot wait to find out the sex of this baby so I can start doing the babys room and start shopping for him/her...until then I dont know what to do with myself... I dont wanna clean and do laundry everyday...Scrapbooking which I liked to do before takes to long and im so far behind I wouldnt know where to start...  Any suggestions?

    Since your other 3 kiddos are in school you should check out www.meetup.com or try to find some other mom's groups through gymboree or ymca to meet some mom friends! :) Good luck in your new town.

    What about some aquafit classes that run in the afternoons?  That's what I have been doing lately.  Gives me something to do in the afternoons, plus there are other adults there to have conversations with.  Good luck!

    I got a part time job over the summer (I am a teacher) and it was something I loved. I worked for a garden center. Maybe find a part-time job somewhere you would enjoy? BRU or a specialty boutique? Floral shop?

    Try getting into gardening. It's a fun way to spend nap time and then you get flowers and fruit and veg most of the year. Kelowna is a great climate for a longer growing season too Big Smile You could also try looking to a "healthy begginings" or "Strong start" progam, it's a great way for you and baby to meet new moms.

    Thanks for the great ideas... I think I just might start gardening.. .my dd loves to garden and so when she is home she could be a great helper :) also I just got a letter from the school with the starting dates of the strong start program so once baby is here that could be our little outing together

    You could also volunteer at your kid's schools. When I was in kindergarten my mom to used to be a "helper" to the teacher with 2 other mom's once a week. You just come in and help with some of the activities. She did it all the way until I was in 5th grade. Believe it or not, I used to LOVE having my momma in the classroom with me =) Plus she met a lot of other mothers too.
