Yesterday my mom and I took Carson up to Mt. Charleston during the day. It was only 85 degrees up there (and 112 down here in Vegas) so we took the 45 minute drive to see how Carson would do on a little hike. My friend Lori, experienced in hiking with kids, was nice enough to recommend a short hike to us that was about a mile long and ended with a waterfall. Sounds great, right?
Wrong.
It seems that baby Carson is not quite ready for hiking adventures in the Bjorn. Maybe next time! You can see the lack of excitement on his face in our lone picture together in the Bjorn. Not sure if it was the hat....the sunscreen....the Bjorn itself...but pure annoyance commenced the minute we started out on our adventure. All hiking shannanigans will have to wait for the moment!
We did enjoy a nice afternoon of lounging in the fresh air by the Mt. Charleston Hotel. You can see below how things turned around. Carson loved the mountain air and the beautiful scenery. Now that we can make him smile, he rewards us with a huge grin almost every time we interact with him. It's so cute!

Here come the smiles!

He is so precious! He is even a cutie pie when he's angry!
