We spent Sunday morning hiking with our two-year-old and three-month-old in a nearby park called "High Rock." Seamus is now out of the forth trimester and ready for real baby things like the infant insert in our bike trailer. He is NOT ready for trailing behind a bicycle but he is ready for the double stroller conversion and he is sitting up and quite happy beside his big brother on these short walking trips. We took the babes in the trailer/stroller to the park.
Seamus looks unsure but this is his curious, interested, possibly excited expression. Fin is just pumped about having his brother next to him.
Seamus got really comfortable and just fell asleep. Aren't they cute in their matching MEC fleeces?
With absolutely no prompting, Fin has taken on a caring role in the stroller. He tells Seamus that he's there to help him. He soothes him, sings to him, gets his soother for him, "reads" to him, and tells me when he is asleep (by shouting:)).
The previous day, there was sleet and hail! But on our hike there was nothing but sunshine! He are some shots of our adventure.
Finlay playing with a stick in a giant puddle. It sort of looks like he is fishing. We did eat some fresh halibut that evening but no fish were harmed on our hike.
Tyler wore Seamus who slept through some of the walk.
Finlay loves to climb! He says "I climb up rock! I high up!"
He also says "I slip and fall." Here he is, with his dad, checking out a steep path.

Starting to climb up. Fin and I climbed while Tyler and Seamus walked the trail up to the top.
He's pretty pro, that moss was slippery!
We are about half-way up!
At the top!
Ta-da!
The view! We could see the ocean but the clouds were covering the mountains.
Finlay points towards home.
Tyler admires the view
Seamus is the view. He is getting cuter and cuter! I just love his new fishy hat from Aunty K! First hat he'll wear without crying.
We had a lovely day and toasted to Seamus on his three-month birthday. Cupcakes weren't made but we had cinnamon buns instead. We had a nice dinner and enjoyed Shay-me's many smiles, coos, and giggles. This family of four thing is getting better and better.
