Seattle Families of Multiples – A Club for Families of Twins, Triplets & More

Our recent SFOM Pool Party was a splash!

·February 15, 2017

We had a great pool party in January! Over 40 families joined, with kids from infant to school age. This is my family’s favorite event that SFOM does!

My highlight as the Vice President was seeing a PEMS group together, with their babies swimming in the shallow fountain area. It is a joy to watch the community come alive. A special thank-you to Angela Smith for volunteering and organizing such a fun outing.

If you missed this awesome event, not to worry– there’s a second one coming up on March 4th! RSVP soon before it fills up too!

-AnneMarie Kuhnau, SFOM Vice President

Just cause it’s cold and grey outside doesn’t mean you can’t still don your swimsuit and splash around indoors! The SFOM Family Pool Party is coming up at the end of January on Saturday the 28th and you won’t want to miss this big family-friendly private swim session where SFOM takes over the whole aquatic complex! Please head over to the event page in BigTent for details and to RSVP.

A few clouds did not deter over 100 people from SFOM (kids and their adults) from showing up at Carleton Farm on Saturday for a super fun pumpkin patch meetup! Members enjoyed coffee and pastries before heading out to ride the zip line, cruise the “pony express” train, make their way through the corn maze, launch pumpkins from cannons, frolic in a pit of dry corn, and of course pick out pumpkins and get some great pictures!

The weather cooperated and a great time was had by all. SFOM families probably made up at least half of the guests that morning, and it was wonderful to see folks out having fun and chatting with other members.

Special thanks to Angela Smith, Chris Shields and Carolyn Hostetler for helping to make this a successful event! We look forward to seeing you at the next event!

This gigantic sale is not to be missed! Come check out over 60 families of multiples selling gently-used, seasonally-appropriate clothing, gear, books and toys for expecting parents and children of all ages, including maternity clothing!

This is the place to find AMAZING deals on quality used items! A small percentage of profits goes to SFOM, but most proceeds go right back to the families selling so it’s a great opportunity to support local families with multiples!

When: Saturday, October 15th. Members can shop at 8am, then it’s open to the public from 8:30-11:30am.

Where: Aurora Community Nazarene Church – 1900 N 175th St Shoreline, WA 98133

Cash, checks and credit cards accepted. We will check ID’s with all checks and credit cards.

Bring a laundry basket for easy shopping!

Your Seattle Families of Multiples Board had our 2nd annual retreat on October 2nd, and enjoyed a very productive day discussing club benefits, events, and general business. We reviewed the results of the 2015-2016 Year End Survey that many of you completed last summer (thank you!) and discussed what was going well, as well as areas that could use improvement. We also spent a good amount of time discussing our overall communications strategy, and came up with a plan that includes a monthly digest email of events, periodic outreach for new volunteers, as well as better consistency across Big Tent, the SFOM public website, and our Facebook pages.

Your SFOM Board is made up of volunteer twin and triplet parents who care deeply about our mission. Many thanks to Angela Smith, AnneMarie Kuhnau, Natalie Saint-Johnson, Diane Wies, Katrina Alexander-Stern, Anna Smith, Marloes Koning, Carolyn Hostetler, and Heather Pillsbury for giving their time at the retreat to help improve the way we serve our members. We are so lucky to have such a wide array of talents and enthusiasm from all of our Board members! We are looking forward to the rest of our year!

Board Meetings are open to all members; if you’re a member interested in attending, we would love to have you and meeting dates are always posted on our Events Page. Also, there are still a couple of Board positions open and we’re always happy to have more Members-at-large, so if you have an interest in being a part of our Board, please reach out to info@seattlemultiples.com for more information.
