Freedom

We have had one of the worst winters that I can remember. The cold weather, snow, etc just will not end! Since Matty started walking, he has not been able to go outside at all to run around the yard or walk down the street. We have basically been trapped inside for about 3 months now and it is really getting old! This weekend, a sleety wintry mix set in and left a nice layer of frozen fun on the sidewalks and yards. Not fun for taking the dog out. Last night, we ventured out to dinner. The little guy seemed restless and the restaurant wasn't that crowded, so we let him walk around a bit. He went right for the waitress station and was amusing about 5 waitresses. He was waving and smiling at them. What a flirt! Then, we ran to the grocery store to get a few items. We let him run around there too. He ran from aisle to aisle, very excited to have some freedom! He ran over to the florist area and played with the helium balloons. Then he ran to the produce section, through the frozen foods section...it was hard to catch him. I can't wait until he will be able to run around outside!
