North Iowa Therapy Associates

Look at me posting two weeks in a row!! LOL!!!
So I finally took some pictures of my new office last night before I left. Some of them don't look great because of the lighting but here they are anyway.

These first pictures are from the lobby.
We are going to put some old pictures of Mason City up on this wall above the row of chairs.

This is the reception area where we have no receptionist because we are too poor!!! LOL!! These past couple weeks I have come to realize how much I depended on her!!!
This is the hall next to the reception area. My office is the first door on the left and Sue's office is the second door on the left.

This is my office. It has the same colors that were there when we first moved in. I think they work well for right now. THey are nice and bright for working with kids. I am not totally sure about the layout of the furniture right now. I thought I would live in the space for awhile and see how it feels. Then I can move it around to what feels right.

So that is it! I still have to get a file cabnant and then I can get rid of the rest of the boxes on the floor! That will be nice! They are supposed to be delivering those today. We still have some bugs to figure out but for the most part it is going well now!

I will post later pics of Laney's bday!!!!

IIII'MMMMM BAAAAAACK!!!


What a wild couple months! But finally as of last week I am a new small buisness owner! I opened my private practice, sharing a space with my friend Sue. I think we have spent the last month painting!! I didn't think we would ever get done with that. Then just when we thought things were great they put in the wrong carpet! LOL!!! Oh the drama! I keep forgetting to take pics but I promise that I will get that done next week. Then you can see the huge difference in how it looks. Sue is the decorator and I am the money police! LOL!


The girls are doing great! Delaney turns 5 tomorrow!!!! Can you believe it?!! That seems so old to me. She had kindergarten round up last week and loved it. We have been going to preschool in another town so she really does not know that many kids in her kindergarten class. There are only 21 kids so they are spliting them into two classes! Great for the kids not so much for the school. One of the helpers said that Laney is the quietest child! I just replied "I know and that is OK!"


We went to my mom's for Easter. That is our family tradition. It is definately my grandma's holiday. She is awesome! She is 99 and still lives on her own. She is the nicest grandma ever! We will keep going to Easter down there as long as she is around! Here is a pic of the girls with her a couple weeks ago.
this is the closest thing that we have to a recent family photo but I look like crap and the lighting sucks!!!

It had been a long time since I had taken any pics of the girls either, so I made them do a photo shoot the other day. It was finally a little nice out! Here are a couple.








Laney had her spring program at her preschool. They were so cute. The only problem is that we had to sit in those tiny chairs. And mom's with big butts don't fit that well in tiny chairs!!! LOL!!

We also had Laney's conference. It was really great!!!! The teacher told us that she is academically doing very well and her shyness is soooo much better! YAY! But we always new she was "advanced", right grandpa Gene?!

These are some pics from the program.


Ok I think that is all for now. I will post my new lo's and pics of the kitchen and the new office in my next post.

Have a happy spring day!!!!
