by lawrencewood1＠comcast.net 30 Aug '11

30 Aug '11

Great prices on a wide variety of baby things that our daughter has outgrown. You can respond to this e-mail or for faster response text me at 401-256-7895. Will be around this week and Labor Day weekend as well. 1. Deluxe Exersaucer. Great fun and in great condition. Lots of fun toys attached with animals, sounds, etc. $40 OBO 2. Jumparoo. Kind of like an exersaucer but with flex so baby can work out those leg muscles. Again tons of fun attachments and in great condition. $60 OBO 3. Kick Gym. Fisher price. Cute monkey/jungle motif. Great for a boy but our daughter loved it too. $15 OBO 4. Deluxe Graco swing. Great condition $35 OBO 5. Bouncy seat. $10 (Could go for less if you buy something else) 6. Bembo chair. $10 (Could go for less if you buy something else) 7. Zooper stroller. This was a great stroller! Its a bit worn now so I wouldn't necessarily make it my only stroller (though it functions fine). Great for a second car or when you are travelling and don't want an airline destroying your multi-hundred dollar main stroller. $25 8. Infant tub. Unused b/c we had another given to us. Free if you buy something else. Thanks Lawrence

[Highland Park] Possible robbery
by Lynn Cox 30 Aug '11

30 Aug '11

I reported in an earlier message that a suspicious stranger suddenly appeared in our back yard on Monday evening. Tonight it looks like someone had actually been in our house and robbed us of some small items, cash and jewelry, even though there are no signs of forced entry. The items taken were of more sentimental than monetary value, easily concealed in a pocket and familiar enough to us that it took a while to decide that they were stolen rather than just misplaced. The same officer who helped us on Monday night returned to take down information for the police report. If this was indeed a theft (and the missing cash makes me think so) it occurred while someone was home, which is disconcerting. Our new policy will be to keep the outer doors locked while we're in the house. Lynn Cox
