Mum and Bub Morning Tea Northside

[nickosmoo]

Hi

Looks like there are a few of us mums on the northside trying to get together so I thought it might be a good idea for us to have morning tea and maybe see if this can become a regular playgroup

I live near Huxtable Park at Chermside West which is nice and shady with ducks, turtles in the creek so if anyone is interested in getting together there next Monday or Tuesday (14 or 15 Feb) at around 10.30 am, let me know.

Just to let you know my boy is 12 weeks old.

Look forward to hearing from you

Kris

[kaleb'smum]

Hi Kris

This is a great idea! My son Kaleb is 8 weeks old and I am really keen to meet with some other mums. Unfortunately, I can't do next Monday or Tuesday (Immunisation Clinic on Monday and CHN appt on Tuesday) but any other day or next time would be good!

Jo

[Xandersmum]

Sounds like a great idea. :) But I'm not able to make it next week either, unfortunately. Xander goes to Kindy every Tuesday and Thursday, and every second Monday is our shopping and bills day..lucky me. :P Another day would be great though. Pity it's so hot atm though! Is making things very uncomfortable.

[Kassiasmum]

Sounds like a great idea. i can do Mondays after 10.30am but work different days alternate weeks so would have to check my work dates, can't make it on Tuesday next week.
Tracey

[nickosmoo]

Hi

I've checked my week and I can't do Thursday next week but Friday is looking okay though - is that any better for you guys - let me know.

If this heat continues I'll have it at my place with as I have a/c.

Kris

[Xandersmum]

Friday looks good for me so far. :)

[kaleb'smum]

Yes, I would be able to make Friday.

[brocksmum]

Hi everyone, I stumbled across this site while looking for a playgroup. I live at Everton Hills and have a 22 month old son Brock. I'm quite shy when it comes to things like this but you all sounds like lovely ladies so I thought I'd post. I would love to join in one of your groups, both Brock and I need the interaction ;)

Emma

[nickosmoo]

Hello Ladies

Great looks like friday is the date - I'll PM you closer to the time to confirm location after we suss out what the weather is doing.

Brocksmum - come along on Friday if you can - the more the merrier!

:)

[Kassiasmum]

Friday suits me as well. Brock's mum, I live at Everton Hills as well, so if you would like to meet up locally just pm me.
Tracey

[justtwogirls22]

i'd love to meet up in the park too - don't know too many people in brisbane, let alone ones with babies!!

[nickosmoo]

Hi - I'm doing this with one hand as the catnap king is perched on my shoulder - I think he's got an inbuilt sensor - always wakes up just before my first bite of food or just when the internet connects - bless him!

I was going to PM with home details but looks like the weather is okay this week so far so I thought we could meet at 10.30am at
huxtable park at the entrance/parking area closest to the corner of
Lupton and Dundalli streets.

If we all bring a drink, rug and plate - nothing time consuming to organise - bikkies or fruit whatever.

Just a warning the park has no public toilet so be prepared, I live just up the road so if we have an emergency we can scoot to my place - same goes if the weather changes.

I've got a red Phil & Teds and very short hair so look out for us. Lokk forward to meeting you on Friday

Must go...arm going numb...shoulder filling with saliva...aggghhh!!!

[kaleb'smum]

Sounds great - I'll see you there!

[justtwogirls22]

sounds great to me too - hope to see you all there :D

[Kaylene]

Hi,

Bummer I missed out ... How did this go, did many show up? When is the next one? LMK ... interested

Kaylene

[justtwogirls22]

It was great & we are meeting again this Friday in New Farm Park (near the city cat jetty & bus terminal) at 10:30am - hope to see you there!

[alicesmum]

Hi Ladies
I hope to make it along with Alice, so might see you there, if that's ok!
Rachel

[Kassiasmum]

Hope to see you there

Tracey

[Xandersmum]

I'm hoping to be there too....if I can find my way around! I've never been there before.

[Susan_75]

I have a 6 month old daughter and have only just stumbled across this site! I am keen to meet some other Mum's on the northside and do a bit of socialising. Therefore, if new members are welcome, I would like to join up and meet you all at your MT this Friday.

[justtwogirls22]

It will bw great to see you all there - we have only met up once & hope to make it a regular thing so the more the merrier :D

[busymum]

Hello all

I also live on the Northside. I would love to come along to one of your catch ups at some stage. I have an 18mth old boy and 1 on the way due Aug. The only thing is that I work on Thurs/Fri. Do you ever meet on any other day?

Paula

[Kaylene]

Hi melbee70,

I would love to join in but New Farm Park is too hard to get to when you dont drive :( . If you have another get together at Chermside LMK I'll be there with bells on.

Thanks
Kaylene

[nickosmoo]

Hi

Looking forward to this Friday - bringing melt free snack this time!

See you all there - by the way my hair is falling out - anyone else had that problem I hear it is fairly common after 3 mths from birth - lucky I have thick hair to begin with !!!

Kris

[2girls&1boy]

I have just come across this website and would love to come along on Friday if that is okay!! I have a 7 mth old daughter and really would love to meet some other mums.

Talk to you all then.

Paula W.

[kaleb'smum]

Sorry we couldn't make it last Friday - Kaleb and I have both been sick :( How did it go?

If you could let me know when the next meet up is, I'd love to come.

[Brontesmum]

Hi Ladies - Have come across your get together ideas and wondering whether they are still going. I live at the The Gap but would love to join in if there is room. I have a 4 month old daughter - "Bronte". Interaction is great both for Bronte and myself. Look forward to hearing from you.

[alicesmum]

hi kaleb's mum and brontesmum
email me and i will keep you up to date. i think there is another meet this friday. hope to hear from you.

[Xandersmum]

Where is the meet being held this week?

[vikki a]

Hi i just found this post and was wanted to know if i could come along?? I would love to meet some mums with bubs as we dont know any body here yet. My name is Vikki and i have a little boy named Jazz whos 1, i also have a girl (11yrs) and another boy(8yrs). Im also having another in August!! My two older children go to school and my husband works nearly every day, so Jazz and I are getting a little bored of being home by our selves all the time. My email is JazzA04999@hotmail.com so if its all right i'd love to meet you all. :p

[Kassiasmum]

Has anyone let the new mums know where we are meeting this week?
Tracey

[justtwogirls22]

i have told kaylene :D

[Kassiasmum]

I have let them know.
Tracey

[nickosmoo]

I think Rachel got onto Brontesmum. I got to Vikki a and Xandersmum and emailed location to Paula and Susan

Jo are you coming? Haven't heard back from you

Is that everyone?

Sorry Tracey had your email in wrong so they weren't getting to you - :p fixed it now

Kris

[Xandersmum]

Hey guys. I'm not going to be able to make it again this week. I've been sick, and need to rest...and pick up a present for my step sons birthday. Looks like we might be in for some rain today...I hope it stays dry for you! Have a great day.

[Kassiasmum]

Does everyone still want to meet with this rain hanging around?

Tracey

[nickosmoo]

Hi

Just had a huge dump of rain here - not that we don't need it - so the ground is probably too wet down in the park. It's stopped raining for now but I think it's going to hang around.

I think we should scrap it today - is anyone free next week - I have a pretty event free week for a change and can do anytime except wed am and friday so if we want to reschedule for next week instead let me know when suits

Kris

[justme]

Hi everyone,
I agree, with the rain around, not much fun to meet up outdoors. I think for one of our group, only every second fortnight on a Friday was suitable. Shall we try again - same time same place - Friday next week and then meet up again a week later to keep to the fortnight when she is available?
Karen & Ben

[justme]

Sorry, just read Kris' message. Friday next week is no good. I'm happy to do whenever suits everybody else if we're still keen to meet next week.
K& B

[Xandersmum]

I'm heading over to chermside shopping centre in the next half an hour or so...will be taking Xander up to the play centre so he can have a bit of a run around, if any of you want to meet up for a coffee or something. :)

[Xandersmum]

We wont be leaving here until about 10-10:15, so we'll be there for 10:30 if anyone is interested in coming along.

[justtwogirls22]

I agree not much fun in the rain & we are high on the hill here & all I can see is rain clouds so think it will keep raining.
I will be away on the Sunshine Coast next week but will definately meet up in a fortnight :D

[Kassiasmum]

i can't do Friday next week, but can do the following Friday. Am happy to meet up then, I can only do every second Friday.
Tracey

[alicesmum]

Hi all!
Sounds like we should maybe leave it until a fortnight from today - Friday April 1. Next Friday is Good Friday anyway, and Easter makes it a bit messy. Does April 1 suit people? Same time, same place??

Rachel

[2girls&1boy]

April 1 sounds good to me, we are away next week for Easter. I was running very late today so I am relieved I didn't miss it. Have a great weekend everyone..

[Kassiasmum]

April 1 sounds good to me.
See you all there
Tracey

[vikki a]

Hi all, Apirl 1 sounds ok to me. I might have my two older ones though if thats ok.(school hoildays) If any one wants to meet up this week some where i'm free too. Otherwise i look forward to meeting you all next week. By the way do we have a back up plan for when the weather is bad??? :p

[alicesmum]

maybe a back-up, bad weather plan could be to go to Chermisde Coffee Club (although the coffee there is not much good, but there are a couple of other cafe's in the centre).
whatdoyareckon?

[ktmg82]

Hi everyone
id really like to meet up and get to know everyone. April 1 sounds good to me, just wondering where it was going to be? also, im still pregnant, 30 weeks!!! does anyone mind if i tag along?

[kel79]

Hi all
I too would love to join you in meeting on April 1 but am unsure where it is going to be. Could someone please let me know. Looking forward to it, you all sound like lovely ladies.
Thanks Kelly

[2girls&1boy]

Hi there,

I think the Chermside Coffee Club sounds good, there is also Zaraffas which, being the coffee expert(not) I am is quite nice,maybe the venue is a bit small though.

Anyway to Kelly and ktmg82, I think at this stage the next catch up will be at the rained out venue. I will let you know when it has been confirmed though if you like. We stopped putting the venue on the forum due to a little paranoia( mainly from my husband....)

Talk to you soon

Paula

[Xandersmum]

I'm hoping to be there on the 1st of April. The back-up plan sounds good to me, too. We could go upstairs to the coffee shop and let the kids run around in the play centre. :)

[vikki a]

Hi all, not knowing westfeild very well i was woundering where the play centre is??? Xandersmum said some thing about upstairs??? I thought the pictures was the only thing up there!!!! Anyway sounds good to me. See you all soon.... :D

[Xandersmum]

Yeah...it's right near the escalators. There's the movies, coffee shop, rebel sports, replay and the bowling alley up there. :)

[LouLou]

Hi, I am mum to (almost) 4 year old and a 7mth old. I am at Chermside regularly and wondered if you guys would mind if i joined in your get togethers. This is my first post so hopefully it's right...

[alicesmum]

hi lou lou
email me and i can put you on the email list and/or let u know the location details
rachel :p

[Nickster]

:o Would there be any mums who live on the southside who would like to meet casually for coffee and mutual support? Sorry northside guys, you're welcome to come too, but it's a bit far to travel sometimes!

[nickosmoo]

Hi Nickster

I think there is a thread already for the Southside meets - you might want to check that one out

:)

[nickosmoo]

Hi Northside Mums

Next meet is 1 April - tomorrow and I aint fooling - if you are keen to come along and you want details on the location please PM me or email me with your details.

Look forward to seeing you there !

Kris

[yeahagirl!]

Hi northside mums,

Just saying hi at this stage , Im 21 weeks pregnant but thought I could tag along to your get togethers soon and get to know you all, maybe there will even be a few "still preggie" girls coming along?

Amy

[vikki a]

Hi Amy, I'm Vikki and I'm 18 1/2 weeks pregnant!! I go to the mums group I also have a13mth, 9yr and12yr olds. So come along if you like! :) You'll get a idea of what its like to have a bub, and maybe we will be able to answer any questions you may have about mother hood.

[ktmg82]

Hi everyone
Just wondering when the next mornig tea will be. Im also pregnant, 32 weeks! and would love to come along and meet everyone. Maybe ill have a bub by the time the next one comes around.
Let me know! thanks

[nickosmoo]

Kris

[yeahagirl!]

Hi ktmg2, hope you are feeling good and relaxed hope to see you and bubba soon am very excited for you, am feeling like I have such a long time yet but am trying to enjoy it and not wish the time away.

[ktmg82]

Hi everyone
hope you all enjoyed the morning tea at new farm this morning. was sad i couldnt make it, but im just getting more and more immobile lately. only 6 weeks to go. Not that im wishing it away, but things are getting so unconfortably lately!
Would love to meet up with everyone once bub is born, so i will keep an eye out on the thread for when you guys are planning more meets.
Hope to meet you all soon
Katie :)

[nickosmoo]

Hi

Next meet is the 13th of May at 10 am PM me with your details for further information

[izzy]

Hi Nikosmoo

I too would love to join in with your northside mothers group. I am a Chermise West local and have a 10 month old boy, Alexander, who just loves to be around other children. The 13th of May is great for me.

Cheers
Elizabeth

[nickosmoo]

Hi Izzy

Check your PM's as I've sent you details - look forward to seeing you there!

[alicesmum]

Hi all
Nickosmoo and I were chatting just now and decided we would go for the outdoor venue, see how it is, and if it's too wet, we can do a convoy to the indoor venue. We figured the kids would be better in an outdoor area, rather than a cafe.

If you have any small tarps or wet-proof mats, perhaps bring them along. I think I have a big tarp I will bring.

See you all about 10 then!

Rachel

[babyjode]

Hey my name is Jody-Anne im 17yrs old and have a son called giago who is 6weeks old. I live at kilcoyfor those who don't know, its 30mins nrth west of caboolture. I would be very interested in joining the northside mother group can you please give me some more infomation bout it thanks.

[nickosmoo]

Hi

Next meet is this Friday at 10 am - check your emails for those of you who have supplied them. If I have emailed you and you know of other interested mums, can you please pass the details on to them?

Thanks and see you on Friday!

Kris and Nick

[Xavvysmum]

Hi, I'm quite new to Bub Hub. I am a 31 yr old mum to 1 (almost) 7 month old boy Xavier. I am currently living in Bundaberg, but we have bought a house in Brighton and will be moving in later this year. It would be great to get in touch with some mums in the area as I will probably be a stay at home mum for a while when we move. I travel to Brissie to visit friends about once a month and was wondering if it would be ok to join your group and come to meets if these visits co-ordinate.

[petster]

Hi guys!

Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed meeting you all on Friday... I'm looking forward to the next meet! Eleni enjoyed herself too - I think the fresh air was good for her - she slept well that afternoon...

See you all soon!

Cheers!

[vikki a]

Hi all, sorry i've missed the last two meets now. I was sick then all the kids had there turn, and finally my poor husband just this weekend!!! :eek: So i'm hoping thats it!!!!!! I've all also just been pain old busy!!! I need a rest...... Any way looking forward to catching up with everyone at the next meet. By the way when is it?? See you all soon. Vikki and Jazz :p

[nickosmoo]

Hello

Thanks for a great meet on Friday. It was great to get out in the fresh air and have a chinwag. Thanks for the emails to those who couldn't make it and hope you are feeling better.

Our next meet is on the 10th of June so check your emails for details.

Hope to see you all there and stay well until then

Kris

[nickosmoo]

Hi all

For those coming along tomorrow there has been a forecast for rain. I think there is a covered area in the meeting place so we should be okay but bring plastic backed rugs or a tarp if it rains overnight and the ground might be wet.

If it is actually raining then we'll meet at the "rainy weather" meeting point.

Hope to see you there

Kris and Nick

[alicesmum]

hi all

[nickosmoo]

Hello Mums

Thanks again for a great meet today and for those who couldn't make it, hope you can get to the next one which will be in a fortnights time.

If you aren't receiving the location emails then please resend me your details as I may have lost a few along the way (apologies but I am technically challenged).

Aren't the baby photos great, just wish Nick didn't look so compressed - how can I fix that? Told you I was challenged!

New mums are always welcome to come along and don't forget for the regular mums if you have a location near your home you can suggest by all means let us know

Thanks and see you all soon

Kris and Nico

[justtwogirls22]

[nickosmoo]

Hi

I'm getting a bounceback one an email address I have but because of real names, bubhub signon names I don't remember who's it is - if you usually receive the meet details but haven't in the last week can you let me know so I can fix your email address - you know who you are I guess

On another note for those who are on the list but haven't made it to a meet as yet, I usually remove your details after a couple of weeks (assuming you are no longer interested in coming) so if you still want to catch up and haven't heard from me, please resend your details.

Details of the July 22nd meet have now been sent.

Thanks

Kris

[TLCC]

Hi Everyone,

Cheers,

Hi

If you are meeting up again then we would love to come along.
