From a Duo to a Trio : the first year

Stressful Song writing and rainy anniversies

After celebrating New Years a couple days ago, life was more Hectic than usual. Taking care of a baby and a puppy was hard work. On top of that trying to write music was even more difficult than usual.

Austin and Ally were always able to write a hit song in hours, but with Ava being high maintenance and a puppy running around,  writing " in hours"wasn't always ideal.

Austin closes the door with the baby monitor in his hands and walks towards the piano

" okay.. the baby is finally asleep, the puppy who shall be named later is out in the back let's get this shit done"  he said

" yea we can't keep extending the deadline.." she said playing some notes

He sighs.. " who would have thought having a child and dog is like having a whole classroom"

He was stressed out it was as if he roles were reversed

" sit baby, we need to be focused." She said

He sat down

" Ally.. what if she wakes up.. maybe we should have.." he began

" Austin" she said

" and if the dog craps in the grass I'm gonna.." he said

" Austin." She said again

" and the song isn't finished.. I'm gonna.."

" AUSTIN!" She raised her voice

" relax!" She said " my God.."

He looked at her

" take a deep breath.." she said inhaling and exhaling

He mimicked her

She nodded " okay."

his face turned red

" breath out!" She said

* exhales*

" Austin we've written music stupid  wasted, and deathly hung over.. we've written music when there was a hurricane and power went out. And we can do it now.. it's a baby, and dog!! She's sleeping, and puppy is outside we can do this, it's not that deep." She assured him

She slowly let go of his shoulders

" okay you're right, you're absolutely right.. I'm freaking out for no reason!" He giggled nervously " I've been up all night."

She cocked her head to the side and held his face " aw honey, do you need a nap?"

He nodded

" awww" she teased

He rolled his eyes

" well too bad! Like you said we gotta get this shit done!!" She said

They worked on the song

Until Ava decided to join in

She played the piano and sang while he walked around holding the baby and singing

Then they'd give the puppy attention in the same matter

" okay, we're almost done! That only took All day" she said as the dog licked her face

" yea.." he said "she agrees" Ava fussed  loudly in Austin's ear he smiled " okay Avie we hear you it's your turn to get attention"

Ally sighed " I want attention too!"

He smiled and shook his head.

Ally was out by the pool doing yoga while her dog ran all over

" boo!" Austin snuck behind her
