Dear Friends, I have been organizing New Mommies' Network events for 11 years, and I am alas, a new mom no longer. This has been the most rewarding work I have ever done and I feel as if I've accomplished much, but it is time to say goodbye. I am closing up shop-- perhaps to return another day. Please feel free to keep using the share-a-nanny and find-a-playgroup boards, and keep checking here for the latest news. I will miss seeing you, but please keep in touch. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Sincerely, Lori Robinson.

Congratulations to two New Mommies' Network moms, Debra Stern and Susan Poplar,whose babies were cast in Septmeber for Sesame Street! We'll be watching!br>

We booked two of our babies and their daddies for walk-on roles with cookie monster! Congratulations to moms Valerie Kathawala and Karen Krents, both of Manhattan! We can't wait to see your cuties!

After five years of working properly, our registration mechanism has stopped working properly. Parents register, submit, and get a thank you (and no returned mail), but the email form does not get to RSVPmom@aol.com. We think AOL guidelines may have changed, but AOL and our host will not help us further. Can you create a functioning registration form for us?

If you watched Oxygen TV on Mother's Day, perhaps you saw our latest little stars: Thank you to New York moms Sheila Pharis, Heejin Yim, Kathy Ogara, and Erica Schmalhofer; Westchester moms Jennifer Graham, and Lisa Crandall; and New Jersey mom Jane Dadlani, for having their toddlers and babies represent New Mommies' Network in the cutest way possible!

Some newmommies.com visitors who use Netscape as their browser are having trouble pulling up the event schedules. To remedy this, you need Netscape 4.0, which you can download for free by going to the botttom of our home page. Please tell your friends if they are having this problem. Thanks!

Our segment on Fox TV's Thursday night magazine show, The Pulse, finally aired on April 3rd (after being preempted by the war). They said that when they wanted the scoop on babies, they went "to the front lines-- The New MOmmies' Network!" The show featured new moms from our Manhattan group, giving their opinions on a new device that interprets baby's cries. Thanks to Courtney Crystal, Marti McCarthy, Catarina Hulme, Kat Olin, Stephanie Jacobovitz, Lauren Bailey, Livia Moratta, Kim Foley, Kathy Dean and Michelle Mars!

New Mommies’ founder Lori Robinson would like to thank everyone who called to say they saw her on Long Island's News 12 spreading the word!

We're all over the globe now! "At Noon," a TV news magazine show seen in Holland, Austria, Switzerland and Germany, taped an event we did this summer in Greenwich Village,"You Oughtta Be In Pictures: Getting Your Baby Into TV, Soaps, Commercials & Print." Thank you to all the moms and dads who participated.

Then, when Company magazine, a Hearst publication (similar to Glamour) in Great Britain decided to do a story on British women in the U.S. deciding to have babies after 9/11, they came to us. Thank you to Tracy Bartolazo and Eva Driscoll for agreeing to talk to the reporter.

We hope you caught the following Westchester new moms on Oxygen TV. Thanks to Jennifer Calder of Larchmont, Rosanna Ciccone of Scarsdale, Heather Dichiaro of West Harrison, Thumper Moyle of Mount Kisco, and Hanne Murphy of Larchmont for participating in an Oxygen TV segment on "mompreneur" Jeantte Benway (inventor of the Cozy Rosie),taped at our recent "Why Didn't I Think of That?" luncheon, all about how to invent a new baby product. Thanks ladies.

Did you catch us on "Inside Edition" on WB Ch. 11? They came to New York's Isabella's recently for our "You Oughtta Be..." event and taped and featured all of the following Manhattan and Westchester moms with their babies: Daria Archer, Monique Ginnocchio,Lauren Horne,Jennifer Hawthorne,Thumper Moyle,Hanne Murphy, Karin Sepsenwol and Ivy Vale. Thanks to all!

Congratulations to the moms featured in the Daily News'"Thersday" section cover story: "The Latest, Littlest Models." The article, which was researched at an earlier "You Oughtta Be In Pictures..." event, had a half page picture of our Manhattan new moms Betsey Young and Sue Mercuriadis & their babies. Congratulations too to mom Monique Ginnocchio, who was quoted, and our speakers, Ellen Goldfarb and Michelle Violetto.

As many of you know, nearly all of the babies on Sesame Street's "Elmo's World" the past few seasons have been New Mommies' Network babies. I'm sorry to say that this year, that won't be the case. This year, there was a baby boom on the staff at the Children's Television Workshop (congratulations Cookie MOnster colleagues!). You can still catch "our" babies on air through 2002: Isabella Cosentino, Alexander Buenoventura Fox, Jude Ferrara, Shadeta Parra, Matthew Rhee and Kian Yoo! Thanks all.

Are you a public relations /marketing pro on maternity (or forever) leave? Want to keep your hand in the game? We'd love some pro bono help as we start exciting new projects. How can we get the word out about New Mommies' Network in Long Island, Manhattan and Westchester? Please call Lori at (212) 769-3846. We'll set a NYC and Westchester Meeting Date soon. How does a Central Park picnic sound? Can someone suggest a good Westchester place to meet?
