I met up with some bloggers and hostesses when we were visiting California last summer! It's actually easier for us to meetup with people when we're visiting Bee's family, because we have family there to help out with the kids.
Before we had kids, Bee and I used to have parties at our home and invite online friends, but we don't do that any more... I do miss it, but we have to be more careful now that we have kids.
Have you met up with HB bees in real life? Made any HB friends?

I met up with a handful of bees about a year ago. We went to one of those places where you paint and drink wine. It was really fun--we need to do it again!
@Leialou and I only live a couple of miles from one another...small world, right?? We get together often. We actually saw each other last Saturday and yesterday!

I've met running Elley ! Would love to meet more but I don't know of any others that live near me. Even if I've never met them, I think of many bees as my friend.

I've met up with one person. And the most awesome thing about it is that I found out that she is the person who was the reason I joined WB in the first place. Crazy

No, I wish I could though! There aren't a lot of bees in my area. Womp womp! I still consider a good number of bees as friends, even if we haven't met IRL.

Yup! I met with Smurfette, Chopsuey, MsLipGloss, Mrs Yoyo and NaturallyCathy in Atlanta. It was so fun! I consider some of them to be very good IRL friends now too. Love HB for introducing me!!! I definitely want to meet some more of the new Nashville area Bees.

I've met up with a whole bunch. Probably 20 bees in all.
There are two I see regularly. One I see four times a week, as she takes care of my LO while I'm at work.
Love the bee relationships I've made in the past two years!

Yup! Sandy and I have met a few times now. Would love to meet more local Bees as well and the next time I visit my folks I'd love to meet some Toronto bees!

… sorta? I met a bunch of people on WB I became IRL friends with, and 3 of them are also on HB now. One actually turned out to be my neighbor, which was a crazy cool coincidence. And then a group of 4 of us actually did a meet up in DC (flying in from 4 different states!) to hang out for a whole weekend in October. So cool.

Rawrasaur lives in my town! Yay!
Other than her, no, I haven't met any, but babyjmama and I are tight, and I consider myself to be friends with a few more.
More of y'all need to move to Central TX, mmk?

Only one (Hiiii @mrsmcd:!!)! Ironically, we live clear across the country from one another and she's the only one I've met. None of the million NYC-area bees yet!

@sunny: We'll have to try to meet up with some more of the Seattle area bees

I've met 3 bees. There's one I'm really hoping I get to meet when I move home in a few months! *coughblackbirdcough*

@oliviaoblivia: the next time there's a GTA meetup, I'm going to try not to be a huge party pooper and bail for the third time...
pineapple / 12793 posts
@LovelyPlum: it's about time for the third annual GTA meetup. I suppose I should start a thread....maybe tomorrow during the postathon for max exposure.
If you don't make this one we'll cancel them all moving forward. No pressure.

I met kjpugs and msroo a few months ago and I'm hoping to meet THOU and mrs.taco soon!
I'd love to meet more bees.

wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
Hmm I wonder if any bees live near me! I would definitely be up for meeting new people, esp other TTC bees!

Only one IRL so far, but I frequently text with a second.

@mrbee: I know! At the first one we were just getting ready to ttc and now I have a one year old. Crazy!

I've met a few bees, but I'm horrible at keeping up w/ everyone.
hostess / wonderful apple seed / 16729 posts
No, I haven't but I would be open to meeting some local Seattle HBers!
Though, I hope it won't be awkward considering I'm not pregnant (yet) and I don't have any LOs, either.

I've met one! I'd love to make it to a GTA bees meetup - I know there are bees close by!
