(Nearly) Birthday Twins at Charlie's Birthday Party

Lindsay had a lot of fun with her friend Anna Klimek at Charlie Bischoff's 1st Birthday Party (will have to link to pictures of the birthday girl, soon). Lindsay and Anna were born just 10 days apart...


Lindsay said, "OK, Anna, this is the game - I'll scream and then you scream. Oh, we are SO enterataining!"

Swingin'

We took Lindsay to the Bucktown Arts Fair in our neighborhood today and stopped in Holstein Park for her first ride in the swing. Needless to say, she loved it...

Ladies in Red

Lindsay was thrilled to finally meet her Aunt Shannon!

Lindsay shows off her reaching skills - she loves her Aunt Kari!
Always stylish - Shannon brought Lindsay this darling of-the-moment frock. The two of them make a great pair in these red hot fashions!
So happy together...

Lindsay is 5 Months+ & Very Happy

Lindsay just rounded the 5-month corner (15 lbs., ~25" ) and becomes more fun every day. She is still a ham for the camera - although she's starting to think we're a little suspect when we try too hard to get her to smile for pictures.

Can you believe how awesome these fancy pants are from Aunt Lynne Anne & family?

I am so advanced, I already read!
I am close to being able to sit up on my own, but for now I can just do it leaning forward to support myself.

Ladies who BRUNCH

Lindsay and I had a fun Sunday brunch (complete with fancy pants mimosa varieties) with our friends Allison Fonseca & Tracy Hollywood. Our chatter was lively with vacations and weddings to discuss! Here, Lindsay & Allison are showing off their big blues...

Lindsay loves girl time with Tracy!
I could get used to this!

Lindsay knows her Aunt Tracy is always ready for a good time. And - she brought her the darling Lake Geneva bib from her famed annual family vacation in Lake Geneva. Earlier in the week Lindsay an I lunched with our friend Jennifer Woosley -too bad we didn't have our camera!

First Davis-Peterson Baby Summit

Megan's cousin Lynne Anne's Hong Kong-based family graciously spent the night in Chicago on the way to Richmond, so we could finally intorduce our babies. Their son, Beecher (10 months) is so grown up compared to Lindsay. He enjoyed stealing her pacifier and entertaining her with his walking skills...




Beecher with his (very tired) Dad, Jackson. It was wonderful to get to spend the evening with our very special family members.

I Heart Bath Time

Lindsay loves her bath. Check out these action shots of her with a (strategically-placed) rubber ducky...


Two Spoiled Ladies

Lindsay & I were lucky enough to have a breakfast visit from our wonderful friends Kip & Patrick as part of their cross country 2008 friend tour! Lindsay ejoyed showing Kip her favorite new play obsession - the exersaucer.


Patrick & Kip with Little Miss Popularity. Lindsay sported her darling shoe-sock sneakers that were a birth gift from them.

You May Be My Lucky Star (Or - Ode to Uncle Eric)

Our dear friend Eric turned 30 last Sunday and we celebrated with him at an all-0ut 80s party. Lindsay was with Grandma & Grandpa but this is what was happening while she was sleeping. Megan & Jamie with the birthday boy...
