We are looking for extroverted, preppy, upper middle class, educated young ish (late 20s early 30s) moms of babies in the 8-13 month age range in Northern Va, who either stay at home or work part time. We like shopping, frequent happy hours/play dates (especially if they are themed), and friends who aren't judgmental about giving our children an occasional taste of frozen yogurt (we love frozen yogurt too ). Where do we go to find these people?? Gymboree is not cutting it, and neither is the neighborhood moms group.

We would totally be friends!! Especially if you're Southern. Rosemont/Old Town area is a good place to find our kind.

It is not either. I live there and I would rather die. I think college frat parties may be a good place to find your kind. Try late night shots.

It actually is but you don't sound our type.

Color me crazy, but I'm taking that as a nice compliment. I'll make sure to wave at you when I walk by with my group of actual cool mom friends -- they are so crazy, those moms! some of them have these important job things, as important as their husbands, even! and some of them don't even like Tory Burch! madness! -- when we stroll by our local fro yo joint. If you wonder why we haven't meet you yet, its because you blow.

Tory Burch isn't preppy. But thanks for playing!

Seriously Tory Burch is the worst. Only slightly better than Lily Pulitzer in my book.

I am pretty proud to be Zima Mom right now. Does this mean I get a whole DCUM life where I get referenced in other threads? Awesome! This may be my proudest moment since giving birth really.

I am looking for cool moms, which I define as people just like me. Anyone up for a Vertically Impressive Middle-Middle Class Working Moms of Babies who Prefer Gelato but Have Been Known to Let their Babies Gum Bread Crusts to Keep Them Entertained in Restaurants in Dupont group?

Preppy is a style and yes, people do use it to describe their sense of style. I've met many preppy people in NoVA, especially those from the south who refuse to live in Maryland or DC.

Yes, it's much like people who describe themselves as "classy." Once that word passes your lips as a descriptor for yourself, you are no longer....oh, never mind. You'll never get it.

Oh no, Thanks for Playing mom has found the thread! And being "preppy" has never been cool, btw. Just so there's no confusion.

Ha! So true.

Well, not true. I am an educated woman, who got her PhD at 27 and had her baby at 29.

The thread has taken a decidedly serious turn...and just when we were having fun for once.
