Life

Turns out the life of my blog is slowly dying. It's kind of sad to me.

There just isn't anything left to blog.

Ty's working

A LOT

and I'm hanging out with squawk.

We don't do much, and honestly I feel bad for those who look at my blog. All you see now is pictures of Payson. And while he is so stinking cute, and I do want to show him off. I'll admit, that it is boring sometimes to just look and see a million baby pictures. Heck, I don't look at my own blog because that's all you see.

I don't have take the time to be creative in any of my posts. Let alone take the time to say what we are up to. This is bad, because this blog was my way of journaling, and if this dies, my journaling is completely dead. Maybe I can do monthly. Sooo no big deal that I'm doing the month of October in the middle of November right?

Dang. I need a life.

 

We went to a pumpkin patch.

Mostly for fun. As if Payson even knew what was going on.

It was exciting. We got pumpkins to cave and paint, but never got around to doing that.

While we were there I dusted off my camera and took some pictures of Payson.

I'm proud of myself.

I laugh though. I use my big camera with the fancy lens, that I got 8 years ago, because It's "nicer". But in reality, my point and shoot has better megapixles and picture quality than my "nice" camera. comical. I just can't focus how I want to on my point and shoot.

One day I'll get a new camera.

and a silhouette cutter.

and a food dehydrator.

and a kitchen aide.

and insanity asylum.

but that's all one day.

 

Next we have Halloween.

Thanks to Hurricane Sandy Halloween was moved to Saturday November 4th.

*Hurricane Sandy. We all know it hit the east coast pretty badly. I feel horrible for them. But I'm so glad it didn't make it to us. They (I suppose the weather teams) we forecasting quite the storm to come and hit Pittsburgh. Bringing flooding and power outages. We had some food and water in storage. We had a lot of candles and ways to light them. We also had some flashlights. The problem we were facing was heating issues. I wouldn't have worried so much if it had been just Tyson and I, but heaven almighty, having a child to care for really makes you panic and worry a BILLION times more. Good grief. I swear I'm going gray from worry over this child. Anyways. Ty was thinking about going and buying a generator. You know. The eagle scout in him was coming out. Helping and preparing us, and becoming a "warmth house" for all our neighbor friends. (I think he was even working on a list of most important, --who had the youngest baby-- to how many people could fit in our house) He is amazing. I can't wait until we have the money so he can get all his preparedness stuff and feel ready for any, and all disasters. Not that I want to be around for these disasters...but at least having Tyson on my team, I'll be prepared. We ended up not getting the generator, which for money expenses, I'm glad we didn't. Truth be told, and counting our blessings, we have had worse storms here in Pittsburgh than was Hurricane Sandy brought us.

For Halloween we borrowed a costume from a dear friend, and dressed Payson up as a frog. He was adorable, and he was such a champ he didn't seemed phased by the fact that he had this weird thing on his head and feet.

I took advantage of the changing leaves as much as I could. When/if I ever leave Pittsburgh and the east coast, I will miss the leaves and fall the very very most. Nothing could ever compare to the beauty of fall out here.

The days Tyson was off, we took advantage of that time and went on lots of walks. Again, enjoying the leaves. Oh and the time we had together as a family. It's so amazing and so crazy, that I have a family. That I'm a mom. That we have a little boy. And CRAZY how much I love him...and how fast he is growing up.
