Ding-Dong. (I hadn't learned yet not to ring the doorbell on houses with babies.)

Waaaaahhhh!

Uh, oh, maybe this isn't the time for meeting a new neighbor.

Woman with newborn answers the door.

"HI! I'm Amanda. I live down the street. We met your mom a couple nights ago on our walk. Wondered if you'd like to walk together sometime."

We exchanged words and phone numbers. And soon, we embarked on a great friendship and started a Mommy Walk in the neighborhood that has grown to 7. We take up the whole street when we walk parallel!
