So Hot Saturday!

Today it was very very hot out! I like it hot but today was beyond what I like. Erika was up by 7:00 and let me sleep the night uninterrupted. That is the first time in awhile. She must be going through a growth spurt because every time I put her in her high chair with her tray of food in front of her...she totally DEVOURS it! People have told me she will loose weight now that she is walking but I think at the rate she is eating she will be gaining weight!
Look at BIG Bob all sprawled out because he feels so hot! Today we did a little car shopping. I am interested in the Hyundai Santa Fe. At first I thought I wanted to duplicate my Toyota Highlander but economically speaking that wouldn't be a good choice. Also, we went to look at them today and I was actually getting sick to my stomach looking at them, so maybe it isn't such a great idea! I test drove the Santa Fe and really liked it. I am not positive of anything yet but here is a pic of what it looks like.

That may even be the color I am interested in. They have some strange color options so black seems easy. Anyway, that took up some of our day. Then we came back home and did the regular napping, playing and eating. Erika is saying "Heidi" all the time. I think it is because Michelle always says to Isabelle "say hi to Miss. Heidi." It is so adorable hearing Erika say my name. She has also started something else not so adorable...temper tantrums. For no reason she will just throw herself on the floor and start crying. Usually I don't acknowledge it and it goes away.
Erika and daddy cooling down with a lemonade ice pop. She was being so good sitting on the couch with Daddy. It was very cute to watch. I am very proud to say that since I went to that health expo - I have been brushing Erika's teeth two times a day! I use the rubber brush that fits over my index finger and all goes well. I tell her we are brushing her teeth and 98% of the time she cooperates. I tried so hard to get a video of her pointing to her eyes. I couldn't get a good one. But the video below she is actually trying but ends up pointing more to her head! It is very cute.

If you look at the Bahob pic sideways, it looks like he's dancing! Also I've been done with the likes and dislkies book but would like to make a better one and I can't wait to see you again in September. I didn't tell you before because I've been lazy. I don't know much about the teams thing though. Make sure to drink plenty of water so you'll stay "energized."
