    @Periwinkle: My husband will be at the mall, but I don't think he's going to join us. It'll be LO and I for the meetup!

    I was talking with my FIL about the visit I'm planning to PA next weekend. He asked why I was coming that particular weekend and I told him I was meeting some moms at the mall. One question led to another, and at the end, my FIL declared, "This sounds like a scam! Are you sure it isn't a scam!?"

    Lol!

    My parents live 20 min from KOP. I grew up going to Exton and KOP malls. I used to work at KOP for a few years during college, too. I actually miss the KOP food courts. Wish I was there. Have fun!

    11 works for us, and I'll bring DH along with the kids. Still haven't managed both kids on my own in public.

    I'm still fairly new to this site but I live about 20 minutes from KOP. I can't believe so many of you are that close! Maybe once I become more regular on this site, I can come to the next meet-up! Have fun, ladies!

    @BeatlesFan629: do come! I live close to KOP and see it as a great way to meet some other awesome local mommies, even though I don't have a huge post count like some of the other women planning to attend.

    @yin: D may or may not come. He wasn't exactly excited about the idea.

    @BeatlesFan629: Definitely come!!! I'm pretty socially awkward IRL so post counts on here really don't matter

    honeydew / 7586 posts

    @BeatlesFan629: Come!

    @lovehoneybee: Me too! Haha

    @Cupcake: I'd DIE if MODG showed up. Like, DIE. I worship her.

    D and I are planning to come. Looking forward to meeting everyone!

    @BeatlesFan629: You've gotta come! I agree with @danda that it's a great opportunity to meet local moms! I am also pretty close by to KOP myself.

    I've never been to the food court at the KOP mall... will it be easy to find our group? Can I get someone's cell # to text if I'm lost?

    My in-laws live 40 minutes from KOP, but we're not going to be there this weekend. SADNESS!! There with you all in spirit!

  29. Ra

    honeydew / 7586 posts

    @78h2o: I don't remember where it is either. It's been a few years since I've been. I'll wall you my cell though in case one if us gets lost!

    @rahlyrah: Thanks for your number. I just looked at a KOP map... are we meeting at the food court across from PBK? Is that what was decided?

  31. yin

    @78h2o: If we're meeting at the food court, PP mentioned the one near the play area for kids. It's next to PBK and the Learning Express on the Macy's side of the mall.

    @yin: yep! That was me. I think that food court is a lot less crowded (easier to find each other!), but there are also fewer restaurant choices and probably fewer tables, too. Not sure what everyone thinks is more important?

    Hi ladies- I'm not so familiar with the mall so will keep checking in here for updates.

    And @BeatlesFan629, please come! It will be great to meet you! None of us have met before either, so it will be new for all of us

  34. danda

    I go to KOP all the time - I think the food court near Pottery Barn Kids is a great idea as the ones in the Plaza are so packed and noisy on weekends. For those less familiar, it's on the first floor and you'd want to park near the entrance that is halfway between Bloomingdales and Cheesecake Factory.

    I'll probably show up a bit late - we're going to an event at 10 am in King of Prussia and will head over to the mall from there.

    OMG. Did you guys see this? Since you guys were just there.

    I just saw this on my FB newsfeed. KOP is expanding?!? It's going to be the biggest mall in the US for a short period. Mall America is expanding, as well. I'm a bit excited about it. I can say I used to work and shop at that mall. So proud. Although, I wish I live in the area to see the old mall before construction starts.

    Next time I'm back east, I need to visit KOP.

    @bluestriped bee: I heard about that! Pretty exciting.

    Looking forward to seeing you ladies on Sunday at 11 in the food court near PBK! For those who haven't been there or are curious where to park, I would map to Court Boulevard and Allendale Road in King of Prussia. That is the intersection where you can pull into the mall parking lot/garage and park where Danda suggested, between Bloomingdales and Cheesecake Factory.

    @78h2o: I can wall you my number too! I will probably get there a little early and know the mall and KOP area well, so I am happy to help if you get lost!
