Get a cooling system pressure test if you can't find the leak on your own.

After you find and fix your leak problem, check out your cooling fans. They should run when the heat builds up at idle or when you run you AC. At normal driving speed, the airflow through the radiator and around the block is normally enough to keep the temp in the operating range,
