What?

I am in shock. I wasn't exactly rooting FOR chris but i wasn't against him on american idol. i can't believe he went home! maybe there is hope for taylor yet. my jaw dropped when i watched the results.

kate had a very busy day. we spent the morning at the doctor because she had a "rash" which actually turned out to be bug bites. i felt terrible for letting her get bitten. they gave me some cream to rub on her and an antihistamine. she isn't in any pain but it looks so bad. she played so hard today that she didn't want to take an afternoon nap. she loves to climb on my legs and she doesn't really want too many cuddles. she wants to go, boy! she hates when i change her diaper because i am keeping her from playing. she is so sweet. she finally fell asleep tonight after i rocked her a little.

andy is still busy at the coast. it's hard communicating with him sometimes because either the cell phones are static-ey or we are both busy with something. him with work, me with kate. after she goes to sleep i usually eat supper and clean up because i can't really do those things while she is awake. she ate her first cracker today, quite messy but entertaining for her.

we had a terrible storm last night-i woke up at 2 and at 5 to the sound of thunder, lighning, hail, and strong winds. i had no husband to run to and say, uh oh storm! i usually do that when there is a storm. i can't wait for him to be at home. i've been watching some reruns of designing women, i don't know if any of you remember that show. also some home decorating shows. i'm trying to figure out paint colors for the new house at the coast.

the shock collars are successful at keeping the dogs in the yard. that is good news.
