Well, we're not taking on mountains just quite yet, but we are getting Dylan started on spending some time walking through the great outdoors! Last Saturday, we had a little outing over to Mike's parents house and took a hike in an area by their house called the Fells. Mike's Dad (and Dylan's middle name's sake), Mike and I headed out on the Fells for about an hour.
Dylan did very well in his carrier and I did pretty well carrying him in it, though it affects your balance a bit more than I expected. Also, it was a hot day and having a little hot baby shoved up against you made me feel the temperature a bit more, but all in all, it was a great little hike.
We ascended for a bit, checked out a waterfall (tried to stop for pictures but the mosquitoes quickly moved in so we moved on) then got to a rocky peak where we got a nice view of Boston in the distance one way and a nice view over the town Mike grew up in the other way. Dylan slept peacefully throughout the entire hike.

We had a nice time and are now trying to work out when we'll be making our first trip with the little guy to NH. It will be soon!
