Hiking with mama and daddy

Yay! Daddy has the weekend off, these are the best weekends ever. Mama has been dying to take me hiking and today we finally went after my super long nap, 1 1/2 hours (go me)!!

I started off on her back, in the carrier and then was switched over to daddy. I had the best time out on on the trail. I was hanging on tight to the carrier and pumping my legs in excitement. I also kept mama and daddy laughing as I made raspberries all during the hike, getting my spit all over my face as I puckered my lips. The breeze felt so great blowing in my face and I just couldn't get enough of the fresh air. The trees were fascinating as they swayed in the wind, but my favorite thing was seeing all the doggies. I just LOVE doggies, my whole face lights up when I see one.

All ready to go...

Beautiful clouds...
Daddy showing me the rushing stream...
Could it be...
I think I see one...
Yes, it's a doggy! :) (notice how cute my hands are, hanging on!)
On the trail with daddy...
Some really nice hikers offered to take our family photo!
We are so far ahead of mama!
Waiting for her to catch up, she can't resist snapping some more photos!
Going up...
The bright orange California poppies were in bloom along the trail...
The magic tree that I've heard so much about. I guess last time I was here, I was sleeping in the Moby and missed touching it. Mama and Daddy love this Manzanita tree. The bark is so smooth and a deep red color.
Trying to put my finger in a hole...

We made it to the top!
Thanks daddy for carrying me to the top!

Before coming home from our hike, we went out for sushi. I was a big hit in the restaurant and the waitress couldn't get enough of me. I was famished after the long hike and devoured all my delicious homemade baby food, plus some tangy sushi rice.

Water please!
Yum, yum.

More food please mama, no more pictures!
What a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. I can't wait until tomorrow.
