Happy Father's Day

Before Father's Day - Heidi had her 4 year old check up. We went to yet another new doctor that was recommended to us by my OB/GYN - she was nice and the best one we have seen - but sorry - she is not Dr. Davey.  *sigh* We REALLY miss Dr. Davey and Village Pointe Pediatrics... maybe I can convince him to move to Cleveland? No? ANYWAYS - Heidi is a healthy little girl. The doctor said she is well built and ahead of her age for speaking etc. She comes in at the 25% percentile for weight - just 32 pounds and 40% for height 39 inches. The doctor actually called her skinny - Chris and I looked at each other - how could WE produce a skinny kid - then Chris proceeded to pat his belly and said she gets it from him. Nice. No shots until next year - so it was a fun doctor's visit and we also chatted about the new baby and the plans for her. One thing checked off our list for the new baby - we at least have a pediatrician!

Saturday we went to a baseball game - which is always fun. Chris' coworkers were nice enough to give us free tickets. Last week in Cleveland was also Marine week - plenty of marine and military items through out downtown. Actually the airfield is right by my work and I did get sick of my desk vibrating from the helicopters and other jets flying by our office building ALL DAY LONG! Anyways - they had some military equipment in front of the stadium for the kids to go play on before the game. Nothing like a preschooler playing with a huge cannon-gun-thingy.

Heidi was actually into the game - she would clap when everyone else clapped - sing along - dance etc. We were a little higher than normal for seats - but Heidi couldn't tell a difference! She sat through several innings!


 Oh and it was $1.00 hot dog night...

The Indians redid their kid area and now its mostly indoors and SUPER nice! Plus we ran into Slider before going inside which made Heidi's day. Slider kissed Heidi's stuffed toy and gave Heidi a big ole hug! Perfect!

They basically took several suites and made it one big long room filled with Step 2 toys and cars. There are even benches to watch the game outside if you want. Heck - next time - we probably won't go to our seats - we will just go there! Plus, since it is several former suites - it means a lot of bathrooms and they made them all family bathrooms - perfect for kids and when the baby comes along!

Happy Father's Day! Heidi picked Chris out a football and one for herself too. No seriously - she picked them out all on her own. I gave him an iTunes gift card :) We went to breakfast and then hung out at home relaxing!

The only thing that Chris wanted to do was go to this best rated custard stand in Cleveland - East Coast Custard or something like that. Unfortunately, pregnant ladies can't have custard since its made with egg whites, but they had yogurt too. Heidi was very excited for her custard!

Custard is a lot creamier than ice cream (maybe its the egg whites) but it was a humid day which meant for a mess... and we didn't have any wipes... Daddy had to step in and help with the amount of custard - but I don't think he minded too much. :)

It was a good Father's Day! And I think it is appropriate to end this blog with a picture Chris took with his phone. Heidi wanted to show off her boo boo she got. Yep.

 Happy Father's Day!!!
