I also would love to meet some moms and kids for my son to socialize with. He just turned 1 yesterday! However, it is sometimes difficult for me to make certain trips as I work full time. I do, however, have off every other Monday and don't start work until 1:00 on Wednesdays, so if you make up a group there is a play date sometimes for one of those days, I think it would be fun. Also, I recently joined meetup.com if you would like to check it out. I am part of West Suburban Playgroup so far and there are lots of others on the site. Keep me posted on your group planning.
