Lorelei Heaven

Amy and Lorelei this summer at Bear Lake. She loves the water.

Lorelei is our youngest grandchild. She turned one year old on November 15, 2008. What a joy she has been. She had a rough go when she was just a few days old. She was re-hospitalized at the Children's Hospital in Calgary with a nasty virus. She didn't respond really well for a couple of days, but once she was on the I.V. medications and fluids, she started to recuperate. It was a scare for all of us.

She has used sign language with her mom for months. Now, she has started talking and has an expanding vocabulary of words. At 11 months, she even started putting two words together into tiny sentences. She usually has such a sweet little voice. She has the trademark red hair of the Heaven's. Her's is more of a shimmery copper color like her brother Max. She started walking at 10 months and boy is she happy to get around. She is adored by all of her siblings and gets lots of love and attention.

She went with her Mom and Dad to Hawaii last week where Bill had a business convention. She actually celebrated her birthday there. I flew up to Calgary and took care of the other kids while they were away for the week.
