So here are just that...some of our memorable moments w/ Heidi in June...
Snack time!
learning the skill of getting down on her own
getting an early start on reading National Geographic

Shoo-fly!
what's that? I have a pea on my chin? :-)
walking around the track at CYNAPS for the first time
(the local sports club where Philippe trained when he played soccer for Senegal's national team & the only place in our city to see real grass!)
tickles from Daddy
hanging on...I mean out ;-)
with our teammate, Marie-José
what hanging out with Mommy looks like!
splish-splash in the bucket
her first Barbie
(Philippe found this in his collection of kids club games & gifts)
watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse in French on YouTube
(la maison de Mickey)
watching soccer at CYNAPS
picking the grass while watching the game
reading with Nico
(the 9 year old son of one of our teammates)
her neighborhood fan club :-)
managed to paint her tiny toes for the first time!
we bought her a new "toy" and in this first video, she's learning how to navigate it
and now you'll see that it didn't take her long to master rolling around
her first trip to Dakar & her first time in a car seat since we arrived
while in Dakar, we went to a small Senegalese store that actually sells
a small selection (but an actual selection!) of REAL American food products!
So amazing & exciting!!
see, even Heidi thinks this store really is AWESOME! :-)
reading on the way home from Dakar
but, not for long...
and not only did she turn 11 months old this month, but we also finally see evidence
of the beginnings of her beautiful toothy smile!
