Heidi started swimming lessons last Sunday. She had a great time swimming with Mommy.

Pre-pumpkin picking pictures

I'm sure in the next few weeks we will be visiting an orchard to pick some apples and pumpkins. And with that, daddy will be taking some better quality photos of Miss Heidi. In the mean time, enjoy these not so good quality ones from my cell phone.

Random Picture

Heidi loves to play with her shopping cart. If we are ever missing anything we always check it first.

New things...........

*Heidi got a new pet today. She got a red and blue crowntail betta fish. He lives in her room and is currently waiting for a name besides, "ISH!! ISH!! ISH!!"

*We have started potty training. I have been slowly introducing her to the potty. It has been out for weeks now. She's been sitting on it, hiding things in the potty part of it and using it as a step stool. But just this past weekend it was; diaper off, sit and potty. Just before bath time, while the water is running, was when I was hoping that the sounds would invoke a little pee pee action. Not yet, we're just starting, so I will keep you informed on "Potty Watch 2010".

*She recently started sleeping with a big girl pillow. So far, so good. I think she enjoys it.

*She got a new push lawnmower. Mommy quickly regretted the decision to get that. It's loud, it plays music, it roars like a real lawnmower, but all of that doesn't matter because she loves it!!

*Her new word that she loves to yell out is "MAMA!"

*We start swimming lessons on Sunday. It's through the community at one of the local middle schools. I know she will do great since she loved the pool up north.

*We went to a little Mnpls bookstore called The Wild Rumpus. It's this neat little nook that has all sorts of animals (chickens, cats, chincillas, ferrets, tarantulas, birds) and story time. She loved it! She was right in the middle of everyone during story time. She doesn't sit still (yet!) so I figured, "what the heck, let her check things out". We picked up a new book that day called, "Children make terrible pets".
