We decided that because it has only been one million degrees outside and because when I was prego with Elanora, we went backpacking in the High Uintahs and she turned out beautifully, that we should probably get some hiking into the Saturday mix.
We woke up bright and early so we could be on our way before we melted into puddles on the trail, because of course that would make all the other hikers have to trek through big mud puddles and we are considerate hikers. You know, leave nothing behind.
I was a little sad waking this cute face up. She looked so peaceful!
But is was worth it. Snowbasin was so beautiful and our little mountain girl loved every minute of it.
From being packed in the backpack...which was a little surprising with miss independent,
to taking a break and eating fruit snacks...no surprise there. She was a happy little chipmunk shoving in as many fruit snacks as could possibly fit in her mouth.
To finishing the hike on her own 2 super cute feet. She hopped and skipped, jumped and ran down the trail.
The bugs were horrible by the time we were finished with our little family stroll. After the hike, as we were driving in the car, Nory was patting her legs and saying, "Come here little fly and sit on my lap." Clearly she takes after her mom with her love of all things, animals and bugs. Unfortunately this crazy baby likes to look at monkeys...where did I go wrong?
We decided a little dip after our arduous hike would be wonderful, so we headed over to Pineview for a swim.
The water was shockingly cold, even for a scorchingly hot day. The Lil Fish liked being in the water but she hated the waves and the kids splashing around her. She made it impossible to hold her in the water, that little squirmy baby. She mostly wanted to play on the beach.
She loved playing in the sand and obviously took it very seriously
Hopefully we are starting this new babylove off right.
So we can cross off going to a concert (not including the passing out) with this new love and now hiking :)
