Exciting news!

We have some exciting news to report. Heather took her first steps last night. At first she took four steps, and then another four and then another four! I was so proud I started crying. I've tried to get her to walk again today, but so far she'll only stand by herself, which is a feat itself. I think Mike is just excited to say that Heather walked before she was one years old...right under the line there Heather. I can't believe that by next Wednesday she'll be one! She has definitely got her own little personality. She's been quite upset a lot recently and rather prone to whining. I think it's because Mike isn't around, and it's quite a big change for her...and me too. We seem to be managing well. We haven't really started a schedule yet, because we've had so many appointments last week and this week. Hopefully I'll be getting my car by Wednesday, but they said that that would take a miracle. I hate being stuck here! I can only walk the same pier so many times during the day.
We didn't really do anything that exciting last weekend. Friday night Heather went to my mum's and I watched a couple of movies while Mike went to bed at 930pm. Lame. Saturday we took my car to have the windshield replaced and then went for breakfast with my mum. That night I went over to Meghan's and stayed until 11pm. It was nice to just hang out with someone that I hadn't really seen in over a year. On Sunday Barbara came over for a bit and took us our for breakfast and then I can't remember the rest of the day. OH! I went to Winners and found a kitchen timer in the shape of a cupcake. It was the greatest find ever.
Mike is still not 100% sure he can book our wedding off from work. If not we'll have to be married before our wedding dinner. If that happens it's not the end of the world for me. I think my mum would be devastated though.
I think I am turning more domestic though. The first I did when I woke up this morning was tell Mike I'm making lettuce wraps for dinner. I never do that, dinner is always decided about 30 minutes before Mike comes home. Then I fed, changed and dressed Heather. While she is down for her nap, I clean the kitchen and do the laundry. Once she wakes up she'll have lunch, while I vacuum the apartment, do more laundry and put the dishes away. It never ends ladies, it never ends. I don't think it would be so bad if it didn't go somewhat unappreciated. All I am going to say is that sometimes I want to throw this computer off the balcony.
Well I hope everyone has a great week. I hope I get to see Amanda, and that I get my truck.
