Bummer...

AJ and I took Porter on his first official hike ever in the backpack and we forgot our camera. It was quite the historic event as we stopped in Silverton, his birth town, on the way to Silver Creek Falls to change his diaper and he got to swing on the swing with Mom and Dad for the first time ever. Not quite the same as his swing at home, he loved it! No pictures, but imagine a very cute little baby sitting on my lap or AJ's lap and we are holding on to him and pushing the swing with our legs. Then picture Porter with a huge smile on his face and giggling. Priceless, but no camera.

Then we went to Silver Creek Falls and had lunch and let Porter take a 20 minute nap and then put him in the pack and headed out. I carried Porter as AJ had his pack and our supplies as it was really hot so we needed lots of water and he likes carrying his pack as part of his exercise. Off we headed to the South Falls and did a 2.2 mile loop. There were a lot of people hiking and Porter loved being up high in the pack and getting to look around. He actually even fell asleep for about 30 minutes in the pack as well! We had a great time and enjoyed a little creek walking once we got back to the main park. It was a refreshing way to end the day at Silver Creek Falls and look forward to more hikes in the pack!
