I have been busy the past few weeks, it seems as the fall comes I have tons of meeting and things to attend. I have been starting a couple of meeting, one is how to be a better parent, its really interesting and if you have little kids its kind of good and after the 10 week sessions on Monday you get a really neat book. Only been to one class and its lots of fun, the kids even get to go and they are in a room learning from someonelse. Next one is I am attending the Fire Dept Auxiliary to support our spouses didn't get to go to the first meeting but hopefully I will get to go to the second meeting.

I have been busy trying to figure what is wrong with my daughter she seems to have a belly ache all the time, sought it was attention but its actually something wrong we are still trying to figure it out, did put her on some prevacid and I think it is helping a little bit.

My step daughter is a Senior and tell me I think the older they get more expensive it gets at least this is her last homecoming so I should have to buy anymore dresses until Emilee is older. We went to Iowa City today and found a dress on sale, I always know how to shop, last year I found her a Homecoming dress for 3.00 this year it cost me 21.00 but still on sale.

Catching up

My vacation is about to end I have today off and Friday then back to work. It seem that the time flew by. Our Anniversary was last Thursday me and my husband went up the the Amana which was kind of neat has lots of shops never been their but had fun, then we went to Williamsburg to do some shopping then after that we headed to Iowa city then to Cedar Rapids. I havent been to the Cedar Rapids mall in a long time and was very disappointed how alot of the shops aren't their anymore, I am assuming that is because of Coralville Mall has taken over. Then we went back to Iowa City and ate at the outback never ate their and was very good and service was good I will differently be going back. We had a fun filled day.

Yesterday I had to take my daughter up to Child Development center to have her evaluated in Iowa City, it was a long tiring day for her. We found out that she very smart but she learns at a slower level so she has to learn slower then everyonelse which is fine. The only other problem is she is a little hyper not as bad just a little, she had a hard time focusing and sitting in her chair. We hope with her hearing aids that she will do better and maybe be able to listen little bit better in class. So now we just wait for the finally papers from Iowa city that tells her exact problems.

For the people who don't know I am in my second year as being a Girl Scout leader. I am not doing my daughters as she has two leaders but I am my niece leader. I sometimes help with my daughters when I am not working. We had our first family meeting, I felt alot better about the meeting this year then I did last year. Its so much fun being a leader when I first was asked to help I was wondering what I was getting my self into. But for the most part its been fun and its fun to see the girls have fun. We have a much a fun activities ahead and I cant wait its going to be fun.
