a first date.

Back when we were packing and getting ready to move on out of Coastal Town, my friend KT and I decided that we needed to get together for lunch and get our kiddos together for a bit.

So we met up for lunch and some girl talk. And the kiddos loved each other.

KT's little boy, T.

BG and her "necessities of life".

T taught BG how to pull up the tablecloth and look under. They did this for a good ten minutes.

She thought it was absolutely hilarious..

Us with our kiddos.

When we got to the cars, my lovely little darling car decided she didn't want to start.

Of course.

So KT and I attempted to jump it off. She drove her car, a 300M, over to where I was. We popped the hood and went looking for the battery.

Nothing.

Across the street, this man started hollering at us. I couldn't hear a word that he said so I sent KT closer to our side of the street to hear him.

"Your battery is in the trunk!" he hollered at us.

Well naturally I thought he was talking about the old school version of my car and I knew it was under the hood now, so I ignored him and kept looking for KT's battery.

He kept hollering at us.

Meanwhile I sent a text to Mr. Perfect with a picture of what I thought was the battery and asked him why I couldn't find the negative probe.

I quickly got a text back that said; "that's the fuse box".

Are. You. Kidding. Me.

KT's on the phone with her husband (who was no help!), I'm still digging for a battery, and that guy is still yelling at us. Finally we got that he was telling us the 300's battery was in the trunk. We walked to the back and dug strollers, clothes, probably a cat, out of her trunk. The whole time KT is muttering death threats to this guy if he's pulling our leg.

He wasn't. It's in the trunk.

Heads up to any of y'all wondering.

Fortunately we got the 'ol car jumped off and the kids were none the wiser. They got an extra twenty minutes to make eyes at each other across the backseat.

*Note to self: watch her in backseats..*

(almost) wordless wednesday

One of the reasons I miss home?

I miss play dates with my childhood bff and her children. Our dream growing up was to live next door to one another and have our children grow up together.

I miss these play dates.








I miss my bff.

Sigh.

playdate.

Somehow my calendar has become full of appointments and get-togethers.

None of which are mine.

Sigh..

Baby Girl has one full calendar. We are always on the go. She's got so many little friends all over the place.

She's in high demand. =)

Last week, we headed over to a friend of mine's house to play with her kiddos. C and I have been friends since we were in the 5th grade. We used to imagine living next door to one another one day and watching our children grow up together.

Well, we don't live next door, but close enough! And we fully intend to watch these guys grow up together!



Baby Girl was entranced by some singing cartoonish type group on TV at this point. Hope she enjoyed it there. Mama can't take that stuff here...

I have a feeling I have quite a few more years of driving this girl around to see her friends. At least she hangs out with some awesome kiddos!
