Xander's first trip to Bays Mountain Park

Can we say "over-stimulation?"
Poor little guy was so enthralled by the new things he was seeing at the park, like trees, birds, etc.. that he stayed awake on this night for almost 6 hours. Needless to say, Mommy and Daddy didn't get much rest that evening. We thought he would take a nap in his stroller. However, we were poorly mistaken. He is so alert and has to take in his environment.
He is focusing in on things much more so now and so he is always in observation mode. We have to keep his new experiences at a minimum right now so he can still manage his naps. Otherwise, this precious, laid back little bundle gets a bit cranky.
He is so much fun to watch though and his expressions are great!
It was so neat to watch him take in the trees overhead from his stroller. He got a bit restless so we got him out of the stroller and started his first nature lesson, thus his first siting of a falcon.
