Future Communications Queen

Allison sure loves talking on the phone...or should I say phones? Just a picture to show you she is quite the "communications queen" or as Chuck would say, possibly a future employee at Children's Mercy Hospital in the Communications Center (where they take calls from another hospitals needing transports). Here she has a none working phone, a working phone and my Skype headset!
She was quite the talker that night with Grandma Jenn. Trying to get her to say Grandma but all she would try saying was Papa.

Grandpa & Me

(I just realized the photo was blurry, but oh well)

This past weekend, Allison and I headed up to Iowa for a short weekend trip to see Grandpa and Grandma Heisterkamp. Chuck was scheduled to work all weekend, so he couldn't come with us. We decided to head up north when we found out that Grandpa & Grandma weren't going to be able to visit us down here in Raymore before Easter (the next time we go back to Iowa) so we went to see them instead.

Anyway, so most of you know, Dad and Mom now own a gas station in Akron, call TJ's I believe, so we spent a lot of time there, as Grandpa was working quite a bit!

Allison enjoyed sitting on Grandpa Tony's lap during morning coffee on Saturday with the late crowd(10ish). She really had a fun time racing around and down every isle and hiding from us. She also was a greeter to the customers coming into the store, and waved goodbye to them as they left. We now know where Allison will be spending her summers and what type of summer job she will have....right Mom and Dad??? haha.

So, here is that blurry photo (sorry) of Allison and Grandpa talking during the "coffee hour"

So Peaceful....

Allison finally conked out at 5pm! She has had quite a day of running around. We went to the early service for church today and we ended up having to leave b/c she was so cranky! She had a lil snack and some milk and out she went. She was laying another direction, but finally got comfy in this spot.

Our Family.

Just wanted to share our family photo with everyone. We took this photo back in December, so I guess it is our Christmas photo?? Hope everyone is doing well.

Here is the video I promised....

Allison dancing at the Sioux City Musketeers hockey game. Don't you think the song just matches with her?!?!? haha.





Not that innocent!!!

Visit with Great Grandma

Allison got to visit her Great Grandma last weekend while we were in Iowa. She was a tad bit shy though, and didn't want to sit on Grandma's lap very long, but long enough for me to snap this picture. By the way Grandma if you are reading this, you are looking really good!!!! Hope all is well with everyone!

Allison's very First Muskies Game!!

Friday we were able to attend a Sioux City Musketeers game while we were visiting Mom and Dad. Dad had class in Ft. Dodge this weekend, so it was just Chuck, Mom, Allison and I that went to the game.
At first, Allison wasn't sure where she was exactly, but once the music started playing, she was up dancing. She also had a fun time watching the mascots out on the ice in between periods.

The Muskies played the Waterloo Blackhawks and beat them 4 goals to 1!!!! It was an awesome game and we had a blast. We took this photo with Chuck's cell phone, as we once again forgot our camera!!!! (it's so big, just really don't want to haul it around, I need one I can slip in my pocket, like a cell phone, lol)




We also got video of her dancing on Chuck's cell phone, I just need to get it from him, so check back in a day or two and hopefully I'll have it uploaded on here.
We are packing up our things this morning, as we head to Fonda to Chuck's mother's house for the rest of the weekend, then we head back to KC on Monday. Just a quick trip home, but much needed as we've missed our families since Christmas time and of course, they've missed us, especially Allison!!!

Hope everyone is doing well and staying warm!
