Be aware that elementary school can have much more opportunities to get to know people in your neighborhood.  We live in a very compact neighborhood but didn't have any kids right near us and I mostly was friends with people I knew through my kids' out-of-the-neighborhood preschool.  Once they started school it was shocking to find out all these kids lived here that we'd never met![/quote]

OP here, yes I am looking forward to the elementary school years, they're just so far away right now!  Maybe our new preschool next year will be better for socializing and making friends.  I did make several friends in my first moms group, but they are all full-time working moms, so I only see them sporadically on the weekends.  Would love to make some other SAHM friends.[/quote]

Playground and mommy and me classes at the rec center.  That will at least get you around other moms with kids the same age.

You need to get out and about and stop worrying about the neighbors.  Once you get busy and start feeling happy about life you will suddenly be surrounded by people who want to know you.  But it might take a few years because your kids are still so young.

Establish a routine for yourself:  breakfast, laundry, morning walk, playground time, quiet time at home/lunch, errands, tidying at home, dinner, book reading, bath, bed.   Or something like that.

If you can't take a walk down your street without the neighbor's dogs barking at you and menacing your small children - call Animal Control.  That is absolutely ridiculous.[/quote]
