I have been thinking about what i should post about next. Things have pretty much calmed down. We have found that Spencer needs glasses! The school does a yearly exam for new students and we also found on our way down that he was having a hard time seeing signs. So that is one of my next things, we do still need to find a pulmonologist for him as well.
I have been preparing for baby girl. I have found some things that I would like to sew for her. I also have a few ideas to make the girls room more fun! She is still unnamed, but we are bouncing a few names around, there are a couple we really like. Its been tough having to do things little by little this time. I just want to do it all at once. I find it very challenging and frustrating. I was approached by a sister in my ward about a shower, she wanted to see if I was planning one or knew if anyone was and would like to. Nothing was on the books as of yet. But she has offered. This will be nice since I had gotten rid of a lot of items for the move, we weren't sure what we were having at the time and didn't want to move it all. So I am grateful!
Pregnancy is going pretty well. I am now 20 1/2 weeks and already huge! The heat doesn't help much. I have been dealing with an angry shoulder tho. I can't do much before I aggravate it. I have been icing and putting Deep Blue essential oils trading off with Bio-freeze. I have been suggested another cream by the Chiro we have found here, we just need to find where to get it so I can use it. The school didn't have it in their store like other ones.
Kids have been doing well in school for the most part. Ashleigh is struggling with her reading but we are working with her teacher and trying to help her as best we can. We have gotten Spencer on his 504 and rolling forward. They both still enjoy it! Which is good! The school they are attending is a magnet school so its quite a bit more focused on life skills as well as academics, which we have found to our liking. The school has a garden that they get to work in and they have an auditorium, it has climbing walls in the gym for the full length of one side and half of the another. The kids were stoked they get to eat lunch in their actual lunch room for once. At their old school they had to eat lunch in their classrooms because the cafeteria was too small.
William is still taking his classes, Right now its A&P and Chem I. A&P is all review for the most part since this was what he learned and did previously. He also taught quite a bit of it as well. Chemistry is showing to be more tough but, he is doing his best and I have only seen one temper tantrum from him as of yet!
We miss the cool down fall brings in Spokane. Its still 85-90 degrees here, thankfully that's about the highest it gets. Makes it hard to get into the fall spirit. Doesn't feel like October, still fell like I'm in the summer. There are a lot of things different here. Did you know they use different cement/asphalt here? its more rock based. There are green trees everywhere! which I don't mind one bit. Pine trees are pretty but a pain to clean up after. A lot of the trees are acorn trees. We did find a tree the other day that drops a seed or fruit the size of an orange that is green, no idea what its called or what they are. All the parks have a ton of trees around them for shade, obviously! Everything is flat. When they get rain storms it doesn't really drizzle, it just dumps! All service vehicles, like schools and construction ones, have lights allover it not just emergency response vehicles. When there are emergency vehicles coming through people don't stop till last minute. They try to get through the intersection before them. We have seen a few close calls and once accident due to this.
