 September has been a very busy month for us! Ammy strated third grade this year. I was a bad momma and did not get any pictures this year. She is having a great time with her teacher, and I am very grateful that she has the same teacher as she did last year. The nice thing is that there is always a few months of the school year where we are struggling for the teachers to understand that Ammy does not always look as bad as she feels. Teachers also don't understand how much school ammy actually misses. It was nice to start with a teacher who knows when to push Ammy to do more and when she is having an off day!!

At the beginning of the month Steve had Gastric bypass surgery. He was not feeling so great for the first 2 weeks, but after that he was feeling much better, and had two more weeks off. We have been able to have lots of fun adventures. We took a day trip up to Silver creek falls. This is one of our favorite hiking spots and when weather is nice and the kiddo is in school, we go here weekly.
 The Children's Cancer Association sponsers many events in the area and this month we were able to take a friend of Ammy's with us to the enchanted forest. This was fun for us since we live so close to the park but have not yet had a chance to go. I was really surprised how different it is from what I remember as a kid. I don't know if they have added the rides later, or if my parents just had us hang out in the cheaper part, but it was fun to see all of the new things going on.

The picture to the left was from an inpromtu photo shoot we had while waiting for Ammy's chemo pal. They went to a the lion king 3-d while steve and had a little time to ourselves. All in all a very good month! Hopefully the next update will be sooner than a month!!
