Lindsay in full patriotic gear marching in (well, sitting in a Radio Flyer wagon, eating candy throughout) the Ocean City NJ 4th of July Parade.

A few weeks ago we took an overnight trip to OCNJ — just to get away, and to root on David, who ran in the Ocean Drive 10 Mile Run (and finished in the top 100).

Chilly OCNJ Weekend

Emmerson gives Lindsay a test drive.

Pics are posted from both of Lindsay’s 2nd birthday parties. She really is lucky to have so many people that love her. And we’re beyond lucky to get to call her our little valentine.

Perhaps you’ve seen her on CBS?!

Happy Second Birthday, Sweetheart!

People have been asking what to get for Lindsay for her second birthday. (She’ll be 2 years old already?!) Here are a few suggestions:

• She loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse right now.
• She used to love — and still enjoys occasionally — Blue’s Clues.
• She always loves Elmo.
• We could always use more Children’s DVDs for rides (see above characters).
• For clothes, she’s a 2T.
• For toys, anything without small parts is nice
  (she still shoves things in her mouth from time to time).
• Educational toys like time-telling, spelling, adding/subtracting.
  (she’s got her colors, letters, numbers and counting down!)

For Christmas, she received lots of Barbies… so she’s good with those for a while. And she’s enjoying her full kitchen set with plastic foodstuffs from Christmas.

Thanks!
