Like Mother Like Son

I think I've found a new hiking partner!! Eli, Maddux and I joined Tyler and his mom for a 'hike' this morning at Kennesaw Mountain. First we pushed the kids up the mountain road in their strollers (so we could get a workout in before we allowed the boys to dictate our pace), and when we got to the bottom, we let the boys out of their strollers so they could 'hike' along some of the easier trails. Both Tyler and Eli took a few spills as we walked towards the entrance of the woods, and it was dangerously close to lunchtime, so we bailed on a longer hike. Nevertheless, Eli really seemed to like walking and touching the trees and leaves. I hope to take him back to the mountain next week to see how long he will last going up the mountain by himself.
