Alice (1) is old enough to start going to a playgroup. I feel like I've been there, done that already. I forgot about playgroup politics:
- bring enough food to share
- don't bring sick kids
- try not to brag about how much better your kid is
- don't let your kid hurt another kid
- make sure your toys are adequate
One of my favorite things about playgroup is seeing Alice interact with the other children and checking out the different toys that she likes.
Sean Preston and Jayden James really like their little buggy cars
so I bought one for Alice. Then they don't have to share.
Sometimes Angelina and I like to take Shiloh and Alice on bike rides.
When we went to the bike store, Shiloh seemed to prefer the same seat Alice had. Silly babies. They just wanted to be twinners.
Alice likes to wear her furry booties when she goes to the bookstore. She thinks they look like baby Uggs.
Angela Bassett and the twins, Bronwyn and Slater, called me before they showed off their matching furry booties on Oprah. They wanted to make sure we DVR'd the episode so we could watch it at our next play date.
Next week we're having Patrick Dempsey's boys over to play. I'll make sure to tell him you said hi.

looking forward to Theodore and Alice's playdates. although she will be older and will be able to boss him around. It's amazing how much you have in common with the celebs. I knew there was a reason I wanted to be your friend. Where do you come up with these blogs?
So what Alice's stylist have to say about diaper brands...which one is happening right now?
Celia, you are too funny. I need to figure out who I need to call and make friends with for my new little one. Which celebs just had babies? Love the pictures! Alice is adorable. I love her boots.

Can Tatum come to your play groups? I wouldn't mind sneaking a peek at Patrick.
Celia, you have all the cool friends! I am surprised the paparazzo didn't take pictures of Alice with no helmet and slam you in the Star Magazine!
Angelina TOTALLY copied me...all those adoptions, a lover named Brad and now I hear she's having twins,too?! Tell her to leave me alone, puh-lease.
I hope you make sure that the Spears-Federline boys only come over to your house to play.
cute!!!!!!
Great title for a great post. Your connections never cease to amaze me.
Do you have the inside scoop on Brit? What really is the problem? Fill us in.
Sometimes I'm jealous that you're so close with Angie. I was your friend first and I know she's only using you so she can be on your blog.
Where is Alice's helmet?
I must come and get a look at Patrick. Can I pretend I'm Alice's nanny? Surely you must have more than one of those.
What, no hate comments from crazy celebrity fans?
Mimi and Suri would like to invite you to their play group. Also, Baby 2 is very excited for her/his playgroups with Tori Spelling's new kid, Gwen's #2 and Angie's next kid(s).
Now J-Lo & Mark have had the twins...all I gotta say is "thank you, thank you, thank you my playdate days are over!!!!"
I am sure Christina Aguilera will be calling you for pointers, soon. She's a first time mommy, so I am sure she will have a lot of questions for you.
I hate to be the one to break it to you that we're too old for playgroups. Playgroups are for first children mommies only. I might mention that this is a benefit of being part of the older mom's club. Playgroup mommies follow their kids around the park themselves. We have other children to do that for us while we sit in a comfortable chair on the grass.
AMEN, NANCY!
I have nothing witty to say. This post was funny though and I need to know where I can get a buggy like that. Faith wants one really really bad.
You get cooler and cooler with each post. Wow, now you're coordinating with the celebs' children. I'm not worthy.
UGH! I hate play group. Apparently, if your husband is in the foreign service you, the wife, must then be in the play group. We have and continue to rebel - read, we, meaning Caleb and I, have very few friends.
You have so many celebrity pals. I'm jealous. Will you tell Angelina, hi? I don't know the others.
Being a mother of twins, I am automatically friends with anyone else with multiples.
Just so you know, Julia is doing great with her third baby, and I am giving J Lo tips on what double stroller to buy. I also just sent a note to Dennis Quaid just to check to see how his twins are doing after their ordeal in the hospital. Marcia keeps calling me to ask me where I get my bows... it is exhausting. If Angelina has twins, I am changing my phone number...
Man, I wouldn't be able to afford being in your playgroup! Yikes for you. How long does this playgroup last??????? Have fun keeping up!
