Before we had Maggie we would take Syd for an early morning and evening walk, but things got switched around once Maggie showed up on the scene and the poor pug has been missing out on her double-a-day walks. We’ve recently gotten back into the swing of things, it only took us 9 months.
On the days that it isn’t raining Maggie, Syd and I walk with Barry to work and it is a great way to start our day together. However, when the time comes to leave Barry at work, Sydney is always a bit confused and depressed. She’ll sit down and look mournfully at Barry as he trudges to work. Sadly, I think it’s a bit funny to see that she’s so concerned about Barry going a different direction.
We’ve also reinstated the evening stroll and I think I may have forgotten how much I love this time with my husband. Sometimes we spend our time talking about details of the day, other times we talk only of our daughter or our silly dog. But bit by bit the conversation unravels itself until we’ve either found ourselves back home or back to our car with chilly hands, a happy Pug and a baby anxious to get her own evening “walk” in.
Tell Barry I like his head lamp! 🙂
Is it because you have a matching one?
Well of course! We probably should all four wear them at the same time and walk the pups.
We should plan some family hikes this summer. I was planning to find a “family friendly guide to hiking trails” for D for Father’s Day.
That sounds like a ton of fun!
