I am SO out of shape!

Kindly proven by our STONE MOUNTAIN HIKE last week. My sister, Remi, was driving through on her way to officer training for the military and she stopped by for 2 days to visit us. We decided to go to Stone Mountain on her 2nd day here and hike to the top of the rock. We took Aiden with us which meant carrying him to the top. Luckily there were 3 of us and we all took turns carrying him. Maybe that is why this hike was such a killer or maybe it is because I NEVER work out... or both! Aiden was a trooper and did a great job and even hiked some of it himself holding our hands. The hike was beautiful and we had a great time.



On the way down we encountered 2 women one of which was PREGNANT and DUE THE NEXT DAY! She looked ready to have her baby on the mountain but she was determined to hike to the top. I guess she was VERY ready to get that baby out!

At our house we took Aiden for a walk in his new wagon and he loved it. Looks like I'll need to be doing more walks with Aiden as soon as the weather is warmer. (Which is probably good for me anyway so I actually do some form of exercise every now and then!!)
I'll miss having my sister out EAST with me since now she is moving out WEST probably for good. She was my only family within driving distance! I am very sad she has left but I'm glad I had the time with her that I did out here. Miss you Remi!

What a fun hike! Aiden is so cute, especially in the pictures on the bike rock!

Stone Mountain is a tough hike!! I can't imagine doing it carrying a toddler!! Totally can relate to the pregnant woman...I should have thought of that! :)
