So Many Roses

They are blooming away in Napa and Lindsey HAD to have a photo next to her favorites....any guesses?? Pink of course!

A Rare Warm SF Afternoon

about a week ago its was warmish in SF in the afternoon, so the girls ran through a sprinkler and then decided they wanted to take their naps outside....

they even brought down their eyeshades!

Pretty in Pink on her Birthday

Aunt Lynne gets the aware for finding the cutest dress up clothes for the girls. Every Christmas cute dresses make it into the rotation, and this year she hit a homerun with Lindsey's Pink frothy tutu fairy dress...If its pink, and fluffy, and has anything to do with ballet, you know it will be a bit with Lindsey Lou.

Lindsey's Birthday!

Lindsey turned four--and got a ton of new toys that have some staying power.

The Barbie Vacation House is a huge hit, along with the princess sticker maker...hours of fun for everyone!!!

Tennis Camp

Maddie and Lindsey both took tennis lessons this year at Napa Valley Country Club with some success. Maddie is really getting into the sport, and I think Lindsey will get there some day, she just needs to watch the ball rather than all the other things going on, on and off the court.....

Lindsey's First Friend

Being a second kid, most of Lindsey's playmates are the younger siblings of Maddie's friends (Lily, Travis, Will, Spencer, Johnny and more...) Until she started Little School last fall she really didn't have any friends of her own.

She and Ella hit it off day one. Their relationship is a bit fiery--some days they are in love, some days they are mortal foes, but in the end they are just what the other needs...I watched Forrest Gump a few weeks ago, and Lindsey and Ella are really like Jenny and Forrest: They go together like peas and carrots....

Lindsey and LS Graduation

Lindsey adored her first year at little school--and I have loved her teachers since Todd was Maddie's teacher 3 years ago. It was heartbreaking to say goodbye. Lindsey graduated to MFAM--and will have a new set of teachers next fall. But really its only see you soon, since Lindsey can pop in for a huge hug from Todd any time she likes. It was really special the Vicki and Kristen were in town to see the graduation...Lindsey loved having a crowd.
