Trying out the big boy backpack

We decided it was time for Isaac to try out his big boy backpack.

He looked a bit unsure at first ...

6 months!

Isaac turned 6 months old on Thursday! It's crazy how fast he is growing and how many new things he learns everyday. His brain is a little sponge. We took him in for a doctor appointment on Friday and he weighs 19 lbs and is 26.75 inches long -- 75th percentile for both. Only 3 more pounds to go before he is no longer in his infant car seat. :o Here are some shots from the big day:

It was the first day of the season for both Nate and I. Season total: 2 runs and 1600 vertical feet. ;)

This picture cracks me up. That chin! Those eyes! Chubbers.

He likes pears too!

Happy May Day!

Here are some of my favorites pictures from the past week to kick-off the month of May.

Gearing up for a hike to Tallapus Lake where Isaac had his first lesson in Risk Assessment (a sketchy snow bridge that became our personal "finish").
