Today we took Kai on his first hike. Always the nature boy, he has been calmed by being out doors since he was days old. If we couldn't figure out why Kai was crying, Grandma Horine would say, "Lets go tell the neighbors," and walk outside and suddenly he would go silent. So today we raced home after work to meet up with our friend Julie and we all headed over to Cowles Mountain to do a quick week day ascent of the local peak.
Kai did pretty well. He fussed after about 40 minutes in because we neglected to "top off" the baby tank. So we sat an enjoyed the view while Kai had a little dinner. As the sun was setting, we moved quickly down the mountain and Kai fell asleep to the rocking pattern of Dad's steps. I think we've got an outdoors man on our hands!
