Walking!

She's walking!!


Until she falls and decides its just easier to crawl.


So weird how she starts to walk and talk all in the same day! I mean, she's been saying Mama and Dada for ages but all of the sudden she's trying to repeat everything I say.


Such a smart little girl!

Heidi Talking

Heidi has started talking!

Her vocab currently consists of: Mommy, Daddy, Heidi, Apple, Doggy, Yucky, Bye Bye, Uh oh, and Baby.

Her favorite word seems to be apple as she says it about 200 times a day now.

She barks when she sees a dog and likes to make kissing sounds when we kiss her.

Last week I saw her pick up her doll and kiss it with a big "MmmBaaaa"!


She'll be a year old in a month!

Have You Ever Been So Upset...

Have you ever been so upset by reality tv that you felt compelled to get out your shotgun and shoot the television? Me neither. Read about a guy who did right here.

Thanks for making me laugh hysterically old man.

I really needed something to laugh about today. 

I'm super sore from working out and I'm totally a baby when it comes to that kind of thing.

Dateline

I have come to the conclusion that I shouldn't watch Dateline anymore. I rarely watch it, but when I do it makes me totally paranoid! After listening to Ann Curry meticulously go over the details of a murder suspect's day, I begin to think about how my own days are laid out. What unaccounted for time do I have in my day that someone could suggest I used to commit a horrendous act? I start to think of my life as a scene of a crime and wonder how each little detail around the house could be used to incriminate me. I type out texts to my hubby and then erase and rewrite them more politely because I think "how would this look to a jury if he somehow died and I became a murder suspect?" What searches of mine has Google saved that could be used to somehow prove my guilt? 

Last night I watched Dateline right before going to bed. As I got up to turn the TV off and join my husband upstairs in bed I could hear Ann Curry in my head...

"She walked around the house, checking to see if all the doors were locked. She thought she heard something so she went over to the front window and peeked out. After finding nothing, she went upstairs. When she got to the top of the stairs she tried to open the door to her bedroom but it was locked. Why would her door be locked? *Dramatic Sound Effect* She tried to force the door open with no luck. She began to knock loudly hoping to get an answer from her husband. Finally she heard him get up from the bed and open the door. Why had he locked the door? To come: every woman's worst nightmare... "

District Convention Scheming

This video cracks me up! This is just a few days before I met Austin at the District Convention. 

 I didn't wear my bathing suit to the assembly. That was a joke.

My Father the Zookeeper

These are pictures of my dad when he worked as a zookeeper at Lion Country Safari.

Apparently he was pretty close with all the bears.
