My son and are looking for playdates. We are new to the area and I guess you can describe my situation as one of a loser. (I know EVERY single song to all Nick Jr. shows!) My son really needs some friends too. He is so playful and I am the only one he has during the day to play with (which I love but I need adult interaction too).
Hi A., I Googled meetup.com for you for your area. (Highland Park) I've heard good things about it. My twins are a bit older than your little one. Good for you for looking for friends for both you and your son.
Here's the website- http://sahm.meetup.com/cities/us/il/highland_park/
Good luck,
J.
A.! I am a LOOSER too! I am going NUTS! I tried MOPS, but it was not for me. MY son cried the whole time he was in the childcare room! I am 28 and would love to get together for a park date sometime. I live on the NW side. Feel free to email me.
My son is only six months old...or I'd volunteer him as a playmate. Sorry! I know you'll find someone soon! Good luck, A..
When the weather gets warm just head out to the local park and you are sure to meet people with kids your sons age. Also check out the local park district in your town for classes.

My closes friends are ones that I met in baby classes. Sign up for a baby class at the local JCC or YmCa, Gymborie, My Gym. The moms stay so it gives you a chance to meet moms with same age kids, go to lunch after,,,,I hope it works. M.
