I am bad at getting into a routine or a groove. I will admit it. I am not a creature of habit. I get bored, restless, uneasy when things remain in the same order all the time. I am a go go go go go person and find comfort in always having something to do, something to plan, something going on. But one of the "routine" things we do is find time each week to hit a library. Dallas County is BLESSED to have such amazing libraries. We went to waukee's for the first time the other day and while the workers are rude and unfriendly, the library itself has a kick butt childrens section. Adel's does too but the book selection is much more user friendly in the Waukee's. I am excited to try their story time but we will be hitting Adel's often too once story time starts. We LOVE the staff at Adel. I got Vaughn her first book on CD to listen to in the car...she LOVED it. Why didnt I think of this before? I loved them when we were little (only they made me carsick) and she adores them. I have to get more because I have listened to this one "The Relatives" over 20 times in a couple of days. I went onto Amazon and found some for $1.99-3.99. I only ordered one right now and will see what she thinks, but if she continues to love them this is a GREAT birthday/Christmas idea for her! (and me ;)) I know that VE needs more of a routine and I can tell that by her daily changes in mood and constant questioning about what we're doing next so I think I will make something a little more concrete and still "schedule in" some busy time for us. She likes to be going and likes change too...so we'll still have to mix it up.
I would love any ideas on things to do with your kids that are free/cheap and even recipes/ideas for kitchen fun (she loves this).
The fall is going to be JAMMED PACKED With things going on and I cannot wait for all the fun and excitement and cooler weather. I cannot wait!!!! We're all ready for you fall! Bring it on!!!
