Baby Backpacking....

We went for a wee tramp on the weekend with our friends Guy and Cheryl and their little girl Mia. Both families just recently purchased some Macpac baby carriers and were eager to try them out in the bush, so we found a flattish trail and went for it.
New Zealand bush never fails to impress as you can see with the beautiful hues of green moss, luscious ferns and intricately weaved branches on the trees.





Mia and Emily enjoyed their picnic together, even pausing at one stage to give each other a back rub.


However, Mia tuckered herself out with all the excitement on Daddy's back and decided to have a small rest from all the tough tramping.



We had a great time and Emily liked being out of the stroller on our adventure, and seeing everything from adult height. She waved at alot of things in the forest and would check everything out when Bryce stopped to let her touch the moss and the trees.
Many more adventures to come.
