I made a friend on the street!

[popcorn]

So on my way to my OB appointment (which went well BTW) I decided to drop off my glass containers that have been building up. Immediately after doing that I walked past a woman with her little girl and I thought I heard them speaking Spanish. Actually, I had seem them in the Rewe once before and didn't have the nerve to say anything.

This time I stopped her and asked if she was Spanish, how long she'd been here, etc. We had a great chat and it turns out she lives on the street in front of ours with her 2 year old daughter. We exchanged numbers and are planning to meet on Tuesday. I felt a little odd introducing myself to a random woman on the street, but I haven't found anyone in the area that speaks Spanish or English so far so I made myself do it. I don't think I'll regret it!

Just wanted to share. I'm very happy about this!

That's awesome! One of my closest friends in NY is someone who approached me on the street when we were both out with our 1-month old babies. I am so glad she came up to me. I hope this results in a lasting friendship for you!

That makes me feel much better and not creeper at all anna. I hope we become good friends too. It would be so, so nice to have someone right here to talk to and see on a regular basis.

Ha! My girlfriends and I always joke about how we pick up other women. It's fun and necessary!

I wish I would walk up to people like that.

DH and I were at Aldi when we heard a young family speaking German. H went up and said something along the lines of "you just can't stay away". We exchanged number but totally freaked them out and never heard from then again. haha

Hope it goes well on Tuesday!

Cool! I am way too shy to do that.
It will be great having a friend so close to you.
Glad to hear that your apt. went well. Did the Dr. give you an EDD?
