Shrimp Gumbo!


Today we played a lot with Zach. Zach got to watch "Mickey's Clubhouse" on Disney Channel. It only comes on on the weekends. So, while he watched that, we read a chapter in the book "Footsteps of the Messiah". It's a REALLY good book. Corey and Gretchen do devotions every night together, read a couple of chapters in the Bible (starting with Matthew and going through the New Testament) and then read a couple of pages in this book. We also sometimes go through an online "School of Theology" course on carm.org.

This afternoon, we wanted to make some Shrimp Gumbo. So, we bought 2 lbs of fresh jumbo shrimp as well as some other ingrendients to make it. It's pretty good! We almost didn't make it in time for Corey to take to work with him tonight. He goes back to work tonight on night work. He has to take lunch with him because the cafeteria at his work is not open at night. We also bought some more cheesecake from Walmart. So, Corey has a pretty good lunch with him tonight.

Shrimp Gumbo! Us Northerns don't even know what that is! LOL!

Great job on potty training Zach! We tried the naked method with Kara, but it didn't work. She just didn't get it. Her doctor said she will get it in her own time. Yesterday she went three times without being asked, so maybe it is almost her time. Maybe?! If not, we will wait until she is ready. No rush.

I have two books for you that your mom gave me a long time ago. One is about Raising Musical Kids, the other is about Hospitality -Fun Evangelistic Entertaining. You may have them both to keep. I'll bring them up when we visit Zach.
