Happy Birthday To Me

So today was my birthday, and thanks to everyone who wished me well. It was a great day with my two gorgeous gals. We packed up early and went up to Red Bank for the day to see the sights. Along with a visit to a comic book store and a vintage arcade, I also had my first old world shave. But enough about me, you're here for Zoe. She had a wonderful time too. There was a nice park with plenty of stairs for her to climb.

Every time we're near a swing set, I try to put Zoe in it. Currently, she is not a fan of the swing and the nice blue swing at the park in Red Bank was no exception.

She is such a daredevil in all other cases, I find it funny that she really hates this. I've even tried with her on my lap with the same results. Thankfully, she's not one to hold a grudge and she was happy again once we had lunch.

On a non-birthday note, recently Zoe has been drawn to her pack and play. It has been set up in the playroom for Issac, and she requests, through outstretched arms, that we place her in there from time to time. She mostly just sits and plays by herself, or watches her shows through the mesh.

That's all for now. Be sure to check out Zoe's set on Flickr to see all of these pictures and more.

Election Day

When Zoe was born, Barack Obama was the president. Today the country is voting to determine who will be president for the next four years. It will still be a long time before Zoe gets to cast her own vote, but when Cheryl got home today, the two of them went around the corner to our voting center and did their civic duty. Cheryl took a couple of pictures. The girls are asleep now, and the race is still too close to call, but I assume when we get up tomorrow (hopefully not in the middle of the night) we'll know who who won. I hope everyone got out to vote today! As you can see by her sticker, Zoe did.

Riding Together for the First Time

Today my bike was finally fixed, so I picked it up from the shop before picking Zoe up from Science Club. When she saw my bike she was very excited to go for a ride. It was overcast all day, but the weather held out and it was a beautiful evening, so we rushed home, she finished all her homework, and I loaded her bike onto the car. I packed a bag with some water and a couple snacks and we made our way to Lorimer Park. Before we took off down the trail, I wanted to take a selfie, but I was so excited that I forgot my helmet, so there are two selfies. As soon as I finished the picture she took off down the path. Fortunately I was able to catch up, phone in hand, to take a few pictures as we cruised down the trail. I am a mostly competent bike rider, but trying to pay attention to her, and the trail, and keep myself upright while holding my phone was tricky. So, I decided to take some video where, for the most part, I could rest my hand on the handlebars. She is so good a...

Baby Shower

Today the family was headed to George and Amanda's baby shower. Before we even got ready, I was playing with Zoe in bed. She was just sitting on my stomach, staring at her feet and drooling. Here are a few pictures. After play time, we had to get ready to head out. Zoe wore a nice dress, even if it was a little big on her. I took a picture of her in it before we left, then a bunch more of her while we were outside. Take a look and Zoe and Cheryl together. They're so cute! Those two are so gorgeous on their own that they become simply stunning when put together. I just can't get enough. Anyway, if you take a look at all of these, and more, in Zoe's set on Flickr, you can see all of the detail in the drool. It's really quite amazing.
