Planet Mom Gives Back!

On Dec 30th, 20 "New Mom Packs" were dropped off at Laurel Regional Hospital.
These packs included a knitted hat, a ParentLife or MomSense magazine, a coupon for a free Chick-fil-a meal, a card with information about MOPS in general and our MOPS meetings in particular, and (as quantities allowed) samples of or coupons for Aveeno Baby products. Here's how you can help with this continuing effort:
- Donate gently-used medium-sized "baby" (or generic) gift bags
- Donate your MomSense (or ParentLife) magazine after you've read it (remember to take off any address labels!)
- Donate any coupons/samples you think a new mom would appreciate
- Make a knitted hat (ask Mentor Mom Vernea for instructions)
- If you frequent JoAnn's or other fabric stores, keep an eye out for fleece remnants that can be used for "no sew" fleece blankets which we'll use in place of the hats when we can
- Give us ideas of other (free/inexpensive) things we can put into these bags!

MOPS Winter Playgroup

Lets meet at Fairland Sports Complex in Laurel for Open Gym. The cost is $5 per child that is walking. Adults do not have to pay. We will meet at the sports complex. We won't be staying for lunch as most people will be in a hurry to get home so their kids can get down for naps! Also they do not have any place to sit and eat. If you are able to come please rsvp to mops@firstbaptistlaurel.org and we will keep a lookout for you.

December MOPS Meeting

Laurel MOPS moms,
In the midst of this busy Christmas season I thought you might need a reminder that our December MOPS meeting is tomorrow! Due to a funeral in the building we will be moving to room B108 which is to the left as you enter the building. There will be signs and people to help you get your badges and find the room.
Please remember that tomorrow is also the deadline for Pampered Chef orders to be submitted. I hope that many of you collected orders to help us raise money for the MOPS National Convention in August. Whether or not you collected orders, please return all of your materials to our consultant by bringing them to the meeting tomorrow. We will make sure they are returned to Misty P.
Can't wait to see you tomorrow!
