Every time I try to post I get sidetracked

So I will try to do it today... There was no Coastal Clean up for my little cubbies on Saturday. We decided to re-schedule the event. I'm glad.
Scout has his court of honor next Monday night. I am so proud of him. He will be earning his 2nd class rank and a couple of merit badges that he earned at summer camp. He also convinced his friend Carlos to join. He wants to serve a patrol leader and he will be upset if he does not get it. He thinks that since he has been to every meeting and event that he should get a turn. I tried to remind him that he has only been a boy scout for six months and that there are other boys that have been in for a year longer but he says that they don't come to the meetings. He says that if the assistant patrol leader does come back and gets moved up to PL then he will quit. We havn't seen Devin since they got back from summer camp in June. I will have to agree with him there. But maybe he is just thinking the worst. Maybe now that Carlos is in BS he will not think so harshly.
I had a den meeting last night. Scout came and did games and then did some disscusion time with the boys (four showed). I was talking to the other parents and dealing with the Baby who is still a little bit sick.
When I was talking to the other parents I found out that one of them does babysitting. So I asked if she could watch Baby. She gave me directions to her house and I told her he will start on Monday. Oh my gosh this will be Baby's first real babysitter besides my mom. I'm nervous!
Scout has decided he would like to raise some $ for the family and wants to take some things to the flea market. He is doing this for a merit badge. They have 13 weeks to get to their goal. He wants to raise $1,000.00. We went through all the baby stuff and he also wants to sell some of his toys and maybe even some furniture that we dont use. I'm all for it I mean its only stuff right?
