Shawn's grandmother lives really close... just over the ridge from us, actually. It takes about the same amount of time to get Timothy secured into the car and then drive over as it does to walk. Well, close to it, anyway. As we headed over on Saturday, it made me so happy to be making the trek rather than hop in the car--I love that Timothy is able to walk to Nana's house and hope that he'll be able to for quite a while longer. The picture here is the snowshoe path we've made--it looks quite distinct in person, although the photo doesn't really show how cool it looks!
It's been a really snowy year this winter and I am thankful for our snowshoes. Timothy seems to enjoy our outings and hums along thoughout most of the walks. The dogs get rather frisky on the walks, and he has a blast watching them wrestle and chase each other. I have to say, however, that I am beginning to look forward to a little warmer weather, as the wind and cold turn that humming into squawking and screaming. It is only 1 degree and quite windy this morning, so I see us all forgoing our daily walk.
Timmy took his first step yesterday--pretty amazing. He takes one step and on the second, teeters forward into my arms, but he is making incredible progress. Again, this makes me so excited for the summer when we can run and play in the yard--it's going to be so much fun!
For now, though, I know we have a solid month of very solid winter, even though the sun is rising before 7:00 again! I need to keep enjoying it, but it's hard to not count down the days until it is a little less cold and a little less snowy and a little less dark.
