Problem here, I usually drop off my Daughter in the morning in my jammies...lol. No, if there was a group like that here I would put real clothes on. ;) I wouldn't promise I would look super great, being the non-morning person I am, but I would go. {Even though I'm not a coffee drinker...no worries, they usually sell other drinks too.} I'm pretty sure I have come to the conclusion us women and our hormones make it difficult to say if we are an introvert or extrovert. You are sweet with your comments on my outfits. I did take this conference as an opportunity to dress up rather than down. I dress casual most days of the week so I thought it would be fun to play 'dress up!' The blue dress was on sale {bonus} at Stage for $19! It is my style all the way. Thank you for noticing and complimenting. Can't wait to read your post about L.A. I love your Mom group after drop off. Problem here, I usually drop off my Daughter in the morning in my jammies…lol.

What a delightful girl you are! If I were at Blissdom I would have for sure seeked you out! I am sitting here wondering which one I am! I have a group of girlfriends who meet for coffee every Wednesday morning after the drop off. I value them so much. When, for whatever reason we aren't feeling social and decide to miss a day, we call it being in our cave and often we don't have to say anything more than that. "I'm in my cave." All that to say, I think I might be both...it just has to depend on the day or situation. And, what adorable photos of you - you look so happy and stylish! As I said in my tweet earlier, I so love that blue dress! Yahoo! Have a wonderful evening! Oh Shan! What a delightful girl you are! If I were at Blissdom I would have for sure seeked you out!

I was laughing because you so need a blog! You have so much to say and I enjoy your intellectual side. ;) I know you understand more than most how things are here. I, too, attended MOPS when my kids were younger and enjoyed the interaction with other Moms going through the same things in life. No need to apologize, girlfriend. Love you!
