The rain is here

It's official the fall/winter rains have started here in Oregon. Which means a real change to how we do things. As much as I adore fresh air it means our walks and outings are going to have to be timed carefully to avoid the downpours and more layers are going to need to go on. I have always loved the rainy seasons until now. Now with baby I have to say I kind of loathe the pitter patter of rain drops on the windows. I'm sure my feelings will change again when he is big enough for rain boots, puddle jumping and other outdoor shenanigans.  It has and is giving me more time to think about things that we can do inside. I'm also making a lot of head way on craft projects about the house but this is the first year I don't find myself embracing the fall here in Oregon.

I meant to put together a longer funnier blog post this morning but we don't have a lot of funny going on right now. The hubs is working crazy hours again. Mini has been teething and battling the seasonal change congestion. I never thought I would pick someone else's nose willing but you do what you have to do as a mom. The heat has gone on in the morning's to take off the chill and damp and the house reeks of baby Vick's.  I am still trying to figure out this whole work/home/mommy balance and baby is 10 months old. I can't say that I thought it would be easy but I will say I had hoped for less turbulence.
 
That's all I have at the moment folks. Rain bad but necessary, the baby has the sniffles, the hubs is working a lot and I'm still here.
