All alone

Well Patrick has been gone for 1 week and 1 day. He is down in Anchorage going to the academy for work. I'm trying to stay busy but it gets kinda boring in the evenings and on the weekends. And very exhausting to say the least having the baby and the puppy 24/7. More so the puppy then anything. We start obedience class this Saturday and I hope it makes a difference in him listening.
Teagan is doing good, she is so fun to watch and talk to and interact with. She had another tooth break through the other day so our grand total of teeth so far is 4. It's hard for me to think that in just 2 months my baby girl is going to be 1 years old. Where has the time gone? Seems just like yesterday that she was born. She is such a talker, she loves to say mama a lot and every now and then we get the dada's and baba and nana's. She loves to listen to people talk to her and she is so curious about everything. She has to watch everything that is going on. I have a feeling she is going to be my adventurous trouble maker.
I've been doing little projects around the house this past week trying to make sure I stay busy and have the time go by fast. I cleaned out the "man room"/office yesterday which was the biggest project and all my household chores are caught up on for the moment, so now I have to get creative and figure out things to do. I still have to do a run to the salvation army and donate clothes that don't fit anymore, but that is going to wait til grocery shopping day. I'll figure something out.
It's not the same without Patrick here, but I'm getting along. Just wishing for the time to go by quickly and hoping to not get too lonely.

Fall in Alaska

So I'm a little behind in my blogging, so I figured while Teagan was napping I would take the time to catch up.

Not much has really been going on. Labor Day weekend we had a bbq and fire pit and my friend Maritza's house. Had a good time there.

We took Teagan to the Dr. to get a refill of her vitamins and found out she hasn't gained any weight in the past 3 months, so we get to take her back next month for a weight check. The Dr. isn't too concerned just wants to make sure that she gains weight. So our plan of attack is to start giving her more big people food instead of just baby food. We gave her a pancake this morning and she loved it. She tried cottage cheese yesterday and really liked that, the texture didn't bother her at all. Maybe she was just tired of having pureed baby food.

She continues to amaze me everyday. I love that little girl something fierce.

We start bowling tonight, so that'll be intersting since I haven't bowled in over a year. I'm pretty sure I'm going to stink it up real bad, but should be a good time. We are bowling on a 4 person team with Danny and Maritza.

Patrick is getting ready to head to the Academy in Anchorage for 6 weeks, not this week but next. So it's just going to be me and Teagan and the animals. It's going to be difficult because it will be the first time we will have been apart this long in over 3 years. But this time I'll have Teagan to keep me busy. I am not happy that he's going, but I'm glad he's going when he is, this way he only misses my birthday instead of going at a later date and missing Teagans first birthday.

Well that's all I can think of right now.
