Some Silly Stories...

Heidi did some cute things this week and I want to remember - so I thought I would write a quick blog about it...

Wishing Fountain...

We went to Village Pointe for some ice cream and to let Heidi run around the courtyard too. Heidi saw the fountain and so I gave her some pennies to toss in there - she thought that was the best thing ever...fast forward to a few days later. We are cleaning out the front bedroom for the arrival of her new bunk beds and she found a box full of coins. She walked away with them and I thought nothing of it... as I returned with some more stuff to the family room - I discover Heidi dropping pennies into the dog's water dish.......um...yeah.......we then had to explain that we only put pennies in fountains and not in the dog's bowl. It was really funny.

Reading...

Heidi loves books and loves to pretend to read. You can tell she has certain lines memorized and you just wonder what she is thinking she is saying. One morning she sat on the bedroom floor and read a book to Taco and Brewski, who sat perfectly in front of her. She even held it out so and showed them the pictures on each page. That alone was super cute. After Heidi finished her book, she turned the book around and goes "Now Taco read!" "Taco READ!!!" Then starts shouting - "TACO RRREEEAAADDD!!!" She was getting upset that Taco wouldn't read the book back to her. Taco just sat there looking at Heidi like you're crazy! We had to explain, honey, dog's can't read. Heidi was very disappointed...

Here are some random cell phone pictures...

Daycare did Heidi's hair in two french braids...if only I could do that...

Zane Lamprey & The 4th

Well let's back up a few weekends ago - first as a final gift for Chris for his birthday, I got us tickets to Zane Lamprey's Drinking Made Easy tour - don't know Zane? Well he is a character to say the least, but mainly a TV host of a drinking show, Three Sheets, that travels the world learning and demonstrating the local drinking customs... His show just got picked up by the Travel Channel - Wednesday at 10pm CST...Check it out... ANYWAYS...Chris and I had a weekend away in Kansas City which was nice - we had a BLAST!!!

Pre-show - post watching the World Cup game...


Zane...


This is Pleepleus the monkey - every time you see him, you're suppose to drink... yep - that type of game...


Chris was thrilled - he got his book signed... we got our picture taken with the group too - its on Facebook...



And switching from a weekend away, drinking, having fun to a naked kid... nice... Heidi still loves to be naked - every night before bath time - she escapes the bathroom and runs around... I had more pictures but you get the idea... its funny!


This year for the 4th - we actually went to our neighborhood party - it was fun! Heidi had a blast running around with the neighbor kids... This is pre-party, Heidi all ready to go!



Went to the zoo this last weekend and of course Heidi loved it. We tried two new things - the carousel and the Budgy/Parakeet experience... She loved them! First the Budgy/Parakeet experience you can get these sticks with food and then go in this enclosure and try to feed the birds - Heidi was in there for over an hour... She LOVED it!




Heidi now thinks she can feed anything at the zoo - no worries - it was only peacocks - but she was determined to share her popcorn with anything except us!




Heidi loved the carousal!




Heidi got new shoes (weird - I know) and this time they SQUEAK! They are way too big for her - but that doesn't seem to bother her! She was running everywhere, squeaking away...
