Our few vacation days went by very fast and fun. Tuesday morning we did our first family run together with the Baby Jogger - holy cow, that’s tough. You can’t really swing your arms and just the extra weight going uphill is rough. I also was a nincompoop and didn’t bring water so I only reached 4.5 miles.
Wednesday we were invited to a friend’s lakehouse down in KY. Tim and I were both pretty anxious just about making sure Nora was taken care of and additionally with our decision to treat Ailo and bring him along as well. The poor guy doesn’t get as much exercise and interaction with his pals as he used to.
The day actually went splendid. Ailo was never on his leash and was well behaved and honed his swimming skills. Nora napped for 2.5 hours which allowed Tim and I to enjoy a little lazy rafting with a beverage and lunch all before she woke up.
We put her in the lake for about 10 minutes - she didn’t hate it. I mainly wanted to keep her in the shade and kept dripping cold cooler water on her, as well as giving her extra bottles to keep her hydrated. She did great and by 3:30 we decided we’d had our fill and packed up.
We thought with a 1-hr drive, Nora would certainly nap the whole way home. And being the typical wildcard, she fell asleep 5 minutes from home. Another nap in the pumpkin seat on the couch!
While the day was really great, we were exhausted and in bed by 9:30!
