Pokesitting and the park

It was one of the nice days out yesterday, the kind that makes wearing a coat quite unbearable for me. Coupled with my bank account staying in the black, it was a great sign of things to come for the day.

I told Mark that he isn't allowed to take the pokewalker with him to school, so for the afternoon I had both in my pocket, he with a drowsy, myself with a Farfetch'd named Zod. (One of my favorite pokemon, and rather unappreciated. The name seemed fitting, with the image sprite the way it is.)

When picking him up, they said that he would have a bonus day of school today, due to the snow days (preschool, gotta love it!) and that they should wear green today. Mark gets to wear his kilt today to school, so it will be interesting to see. I don't get to go to any of the local parties, not a good place to go with two kids in tow. Last year, my plans were messed up by the babysitter flaking out last minute. This year I have no plans.

On the way home I decided that dinner should be a picnic, and told my wife. With a bit of flip flopping, we decided on Wendy's and at at the Hollow. It was Enzo's first picnic, and he ate most of what he felt like eating sitting on a picnic bench, and a bit on my lap. He was done as soon as Mark finished and ran off to play.

I don't know for sure if Enzo had been in a swing before, I imagine his grandparents probably have taken him to the park by their house, so I bet he has. Had to teach Mark how to pee in the woods, which I think he enjoyed too much. Really though, he sleeps in a tent most nights, so it is probably a good skill to have down. (The tent is in his room, on the floor by the foot of his bed. He loves it, though he did get up about 6ish this morning and curled up on our bed, watching me play pokemon before he fell back asleep.)
