I find that Ozzy doesn't like to go outside with anyone but me. If my SO or my daughter tries to take him out they have to chase him down. I just have to say "outside?" and he's running to me.

Here's a trick to get your pup to love putting on the harness and going out for walks. TREATS. Get your dog to go through the harness on its own by holding it out and holding a treat on the other side, so he/she has to go into the harness to get the treat (or lead their head through with a treat in your hand). It's always better if they do something on their own, rather than you do something to them (they walk into the harness rather than you put it on them). I did this with Ozzy for a while and it worked wonders. Then, give a treat occasionally when outside. You don't have to do this forever, but it will help get your baby to really WANT to go out with you and WANT to put on the harness.
