Lifeguard Duty & Launching Rockets

It's been a fun filled packed weekend. We went to a 2nd birthday party in Margate, NJ. After the party everyone went to the beach. What a great idea!!! No moonbounce rentals required.
Carly loves the beach. Especially the water. She loves jumping waves! But sometimes it is fun to play in the water filled oversized puddles that occur on the beach. Not sure what the official name is, but they are perfect for little kids. Mark and I were standing next to one watching Carly play with 2 other little girls in the "puddle". One girl was Carly's age, and the other was almost one. The young grandmother was also with us. For about two minutes. Then she left with one of the girls. That's right. Simple math--she started with two kids, and left with one. Hello!!! Don't assume that we will become your daughter's lifeguard, parent and supervisor. I would be more than happy to help out if you ask, but please don't just walk away leaving liability with us......

Anyway, on a happier note….
If you have any young children or need a present to buy, I highly recommend the Ultra Stomp Rocket by D & L company (not the ones sold at Five Below). It is under $20, and provides at least a ½ hour of solid entertainment. No assistance required. There are 2 versions, Ultra and Junior. I believe Discovery Kids Toy Stores carry them. Brilliant I say!!!
