Pumpkin Blues.

So I got up this morning at 5:30 a.m. to feed Christopher. Since it's to early to start cooking for our party I planned to carve my pumpkins. I went to bed last night knowing I would have time to do it before everything else and waiting until today might get them to last until Halloween. I figured they would make a good Halloween welcome for the party guests. I stepped out onto the front porch and did not see my pumpkins anywhere. I checked the bed of the truck and around the corner to see if they had been hidden from me in some sort of prank. I looked at the neighbors houses, all still sporting their pumpkins. I then went to the garage, maybe my wonderful husband put them there to keep them out of the frost. Nope. So a few tears later I wake Adam up to let him know my pumpkins have been kidnapped and it's not nice. So needless to say I'm feeling very bummed this morning and am not in much of a party mood anymore.

What a long couple of days.

So, Tuesday night I had my parents over for dinner and a movie. This movie is the most awesomest "zombie" animal movie ever. My friends let me borrow it and let me just say, the rents and I had a good laugh. This also had some really good surround sound effects. I was impressed, I jumped in fact as I thought something was going on outside of the room, in my house when I realized it was all the action taking place behind me from the speakers! So if you haven't watched it, do so. Black Sheep, rent it today. You'll laugh, I promise, and you'll probably never look at a sheep the same way again.

Last night was a long one. Christopher had his first night of vomiting. Over a 3 hour span I had to change myself and the little guy 5 times. Poor thing couldn't even keep a sip of water down. I had to hold him most of the night because when I set him down his poor little body would start heaving again. He seems to be doing fine today, a little cranky from being overly tired. I know I'm tired. He's able to keep all his food down, not doing solids today though.

It's a beautiful day!!

It's just gorgeous outside today. Especially for being fall. I must say I'm enjoying the sunshine.

I've (meaning Adam helped a little) got most my fall "chores" done. The lawn has been given its fall feeding. The fence has been stained (this is where Adam helped.) This morning the local Gamecube champion and his dad came over and blew out my sprinklers. Thanks!!!

So all in all it's been a productive couple of weeks so far. Christopher is doing his thing, growing. Sleeping right now, which he tends to do on a belly full of cereal and bananas. Adam will be heading to MN to get me some venison in a couple of weeks, excited about that. Although MN venison does taste different than WA venison, it's still good. Party this weekend. Gonna have quite a few people, all in costume. Should be fun. Lots of food. Anyway. I'm just kinda rambling. Sorry.

Plbbbbb!

Christopher was being really cute this morning. So cute that I had to pull out the camera. As you can see he was in a tongue mood. I believe he made this face after trying to eat my foot (yes it was clean,) can't quite remember however. From the looks of it he won't be trying it again anytime soon.

Adam is travelling again. Last week was his first back on the road. I had become used to him being here again unfortunately as he was home for a month (I think) and now am having to become used to him being gone again. I know the 36 hours I'll have him home for every weekend over the next few weeks will feel "normal" in no time, which is sad. It'll be nice when he doesn't have to travel for work anymore, but for now it's a necessary evil.

Halloween is on it's way. We've started decorating the house and hope that our party is a success. We'll probably do one every year since it's my favorite holiday. I've got some pretty neat decorations and every year they'll just get better, if you happen to drive (especially at night) by you should look at the second story window. It's cool.
