Tuesday

We took our bikes and Toby in his trailer out to the causeway after lunch for a walk. It was 73 degrees and sunny. When John goes to the restroom, Toby sits and waits for him to return, never taking his eyes off of the entrance. Doesn't everyone want someone to long for them with eyes like that?


Toby managed to find the one yucky fish tail on the causeway. John dumped a pocket full of treats in an attempt to distract him, but Toby preferred the fish tail. John had to remove it by hand.

The way the clouds were stacked on top of each other on the horizon looked fake. They were so orderly.


We're still searching for the right combination to make Toby like his trailer more. We took the cushion out to give him more room. We probably need to find a thinner one to help cushion the bumps. We put the see-through windows down to keep him warm. It didn't seem to help. He has crying fits. I think it's time to hook his trailer back up to my bike.

John continued to practice riding his trike with Toby running and walking alongside. It's a good way to get Toby some running in. John only goes around the block to keep from stressing Toby's baby bones. And he goes slow.

This morning we put Toby in his crate and went to Publix for our flu shots. And Publix gave us both a $10 gift card for doing so. We walked to Publix via the Curlew Creek bridge through the neighborhood and then we took the Pinellas Trail home.

Morning coffee time.

  1. Loved the first photo. You look great. Now you and John know a little bit about being a parent. Always trying to figure out how to make things better for the child. In your case a young puppy. A great experience!!!!!!! Enjoy... it goes by tooooo fast!!!!! I did get a walk in today. Dad went with me. Made it so much more enjoyable. It was freaking cold. We were really bundled up. John getting fish tail out of Toby’s mouth is an example of doing what you thought you could not do. Parenting is quite an experience. Love you guys. You are doing a great job. Keep the stories coming. Love your blog.
