squeak

today kate played with 5 year old savannah. that was great. she liked doing that. i liked it because i could relax and let her entertain her. this afternoon kate and i went to bay and lily hourin's birthday party in diamondhead. their mommy took kate's awesome pictures. it was fun being there. i met a lot of diamondhead people. her husband grew up there so they know lots of folks. their house is gorgeous and it was nice. kate was climbing my leg the whole time so i wanted some help but i didn't know anyone really. i met a nice young mommy from ocean springs and she says she'll call me. we'll see. i've been through this before.
the birthday girls never opened their presents. we sat around having sangrias and mingling while the kids played ona jumpy blow up thing in the yard. the men sat on the porch with some beer. i felt insecure with all the preppy ladies. i met one lady who does arbonne. most of them stay at home with the kids and go to the country club and go swimming.
maybe i'll find some friends there. it's so different from bay st louis. it's about 10 minutes away. anyway it was an interesting, nice change of pace.
last night we went to daniel's south beach to hear "dr. rock and the interns." a big group of us went and it was fun. the band was okay. of course i did my rendition of "brick house" with them but the lead singer was messing up the words. oh well roll with it.
went to the waffle house afterwards. nothing like waffle house late at night! it's so good.
best of all-we only spent 13 bucks all night. lagniappe!
i got kate some mooshu trainers. they have little squeakers in the sole to encourage toddlers to walk. you can take the squeakers out when they learn to walk. she is not used to the feeling of shoes so she's still figuring that out. it's funny to watch her look at her shoes.
went to slidell on wednesday to get birthday party supplies and to go to target. i got some awesome, cheap clothes for kt and had fun with kim larroux.
i've been busy scheduling teams, answering emails for lagniappe, and going to staff meetings. it's a good job for me to have since i can work from home.
there is a tropical storm in the bahamas. please please pray that it will not make landfall and that God will prevent it from arriving here.
