Baby Goes Hiking!!

I've been dying to go hiking since the weather has been so nice. It was one of the perks of moving to Huntsville. I went while I was pregnant with Savannah and I couldn't wait to take her along! So I found an awesome hiking backpack at a consignment store and packed her right up! She went two days in a row! Jen came to visit us last week so on Tuesday we took a girls hike on Monte Sano. The next day was Shane's birthday and Jen stayed long enough to celebrate with us so Shane, Jen, Savannah, and me went for day 2 on Rainbow Mountain. The weather was a bit chilly... but perfect for hiking! We bundled Savannah up and she loved it! She just looked around from her backpack and wouldn't make a peep... unless I stopped. Then she would start groaning and kicking just like she was riding a horse. And neither hike was a cake walk... both had some pretty steep declines... and worse, inclines. But we made it!! We both can't wait to do it again!!

Don't ask.

Savannah would bury her head so far in my back you could barely see her little face. She fell asleep a few times.

Hehe.

This picture makes me laugh because Jen and I stared at this pole for about 10 minutes trying to figure out the difficulty rating of the trail we were about to go on. Now I look at it and it's very clearly marked "Extremely Difficult," the highest rating. Not sure how we missed that!!
