Catching up on Heidi


Sorry - the word busy doesn't even begin to describe the last few weeks - usually its busy at work and not home or vice versa - to sum it up - I dated things today 8/18/10 - no where close - eh? Don't even know where that came from! Is it the weekend yet???

Anyways - catching up on Heidi... So Heidi was very sick a few weeks ago - her temp hit 107.1 - yikes - huh? We ended up having to go to the doctor in an emergency where they could get her temp down to around 105.8 to 105.4 - lots of washcloths and a super duper shot - she was finally in the 103 range - her fever didn't break for like 3 or 4 days. All she had was a fever - no running nose - no ear infections - nothing - the doctor ran as many tests as he could think of and chalked it up to a virus - who knows - but she is better now - thank god she didn't seizure and we should be good to go! While home sick one day (you can tell she isn't 100% in the pictures) - we put up the dog's new kennel and Heidi loved it! I swear I did not put her in it! She played in it for an entire day and here are some of the shots... we might just have a new timeout spot - hahahaha j/k

Another thing that has become very popular with Heidi is hand feeding the dogs - don't know why - and no worries - she isn't eating the dog food too... Taco and Brewski patiently wait for their piece of food to he handed to them.

And finally Pooley's Pumpkin Patch... I love this place - plenty to entertain the kids and 1/4 the cost of Valas!

First stop - a silo filled with dried corn like sand - I think they could have stayed in there ALL day!

Next stops - tire swing, old tractor and a corn maze - have to admit - I don't remember even making one turn in the maze... but hey - fun just the same. Chris found each kid a little corn cob to play with - Heidi never let go of hers - she even took a nap with it later... We had to convince her to eventually throw it away - but man - you would have thought we asked her to get rid of Big Toe! crazy!

Heidi's first pony ride! She LOVED it!

Dean and Chris had a moment...I don't know...

Heidi was concentrating very hard on the hay rack ride - I think she was deciding if she liked it or not.

And they are off to go pick pumpkins!
Awww....Nebraska....

Ayla and Heidi having fun playing with the straw!

I LOVE FALL!!!
