Here's me and Rowan on top of Spruce Moutain here in Maine a couple of days ago. We put him in the baby carrier and he tags along with us whever we go.
Rowan is a little over four months old now and it's really amazing how fast he's growing. He went to the doctors last night and weighed in at a whopping 17 1/2 lbs, which puts him in the 90th percentile of his age group. He's a beast!
Bonnie and I have started taking him on short hiking trips and it's really fun to watch him experience new things. Bonnie loves to take him and put his feet in the grass, or let him run his hand over some leaves, or let him get his feet wet in the pool. All new and exciting experiences for him.
He's really becoming quite the little chatter box too. I like to tease Bonnie that it's her side of the family manifesting itself. In the mornings when she's getting him ready for daycare he starts yelling at her and can get himself worked up into a pretty good lather. It's pretty entertaining watch him.
Rowan will experience the great outdoors. Bonnie and I love to hike, camp, climb, ice climb, and anything else that will take us outsi
de and keep us there. Cheyenne (my daughter) isn't as interested in being outside, but she does know how to handler heself to an extent. If I give her a match and tell her to get a fire lit she can do it. Not bad for a 17 year old. I've got a good picture of Chey taken on Mt. Katahdin a couple of years ago that I'll publish here later.
Here's a picture of Ro in the carrier.
One last picture of Bonnie and Ro:
