Hiking the Y

Last night we hiked the Y. Or we tried to, I should say. We put Aubrey in the hiking back pack and she freaked. Screamed, wiggled and tried to climb out. We tried to just keep going in hopes that she'd get over it, but she didn't. Around the first switch back we got her out thinking we'd just take turns holding her. But what 20 month old wants to be held when they're in a new place? Not ours. She wanted to walk. And that, as you can imagine, didn't go so well. She and I never made it past that first switch back. We looked at rocks and gave them hugs and kisses while we waited for Daddy, Caleb and Brynley to hike up and back. We walked around holding hands and she kept saying "big steps" and "air's bini (becab/daddy)" for "where's Brynley". It was pretty cute. Unfortunately, I had the camera so I don't have any pictures of the kids at the top. So we'll have to settle for these.



Cute sister moment for ya:
