Tuesday: Day Trip to Estes Park

We decided to beat the heat and spend some time in Rocky Mt. National Park on Tuesday. We had another great day!
I had mud on my shoes that I was stomping off, so Noah followed suit and tried to stomp the mud off his shoes too!

We took the shuttle to Bear Lake, and got to see Grandpa. Noah didn't love the last 15 minutes of our drive, so he was a little out of sorts!

Bear Lake was the perfect "hike" for Noah!

Noah got around either a) on Daddy's shoulders, or b) running feverishly. I'd say it was about a 50/50 split!

Noah loved the scenery and the "critters" that we saw... mainly just a few fish, ground squirrels, bugs, dragon flies, etc.

Here's our young naturalist looking for trout!

Family photo! Noah also loved sitting on the log benches. I know, I look huge, but keep in mind we'll have a new baby in about 7 weeks!

Out on a rock...

Found this t-shirt at a (tacky!!!!) shop in town, unfortunately they were sold out in Rob's size! (Seriously, who would buy/wear that?)

Noah had just about had it, and was almost falling asleep right on Rob's shoulders. Don't worry, I took my turn carrying him like that as well (evidence below).

This is what happens when a two-year-old eats salt-water taffy while riding on mom's shoulders. I wouldn't recommend it, it was quite the project to get it all out of my hair!

This is Noah saying "No, No Mommy!", no more photos! He was asleep about a minute later, as soon as we pulled out of the parking lot!
