Hunting Daddy....We go Hunting...o'tay?

Well yesterday and today found me home with Isa. She's come down with a cold that's going around, and since i'm not working much, i was glad to stay home and have a little Dad time with her while brother went off to school. It was a pretty quiet morning yesterday, and i'd been working on some laundary and cleaning, when i realized it had become just a little to quite. So, i found Isa in her bedroom. This is what she had on! (Notice the vest on the floor, well that was to be next for her atire) She saw me and asked or stated for that matter....."We go Hunting dadda, Kaikai not here, just me and you...o'tay?" As she reached for the sky and asked me to pick her up.....

This going hunting thing has become quite the thing to do as of lately, especially since Isa recieved her very own pair of Bino's over christmas. Just last week we (Kaikai, Isa, and I) made a very special hunting trip....to try Isa's new special Bino's....we were to look for "Bears" and Dears'". So we bundeled up and headed out.....lucky for me there is a nice little trail to the beach from our house that is "just right" for a "Quick give momma a break hunting trip"...

As you can see Isa put her Binoc's to good use. She must have stopped and used them a 100 times....and each time she would tell me that "evry ting looks toooo smawll".....Note the picture below.....

It took awhile for her to realize that she was looking through them Backwards! I wasn't about to spoil her fun though, and eventually she figured it out.

Kaikai on the other hand had to be strapped in. He's not one to follow the path very well, and was insistant on aquireing every rock and stick that was available, making for SLOW progress.....Needless to say, he wasn't real happy about being strapped in....I call this the "ejection seat postion" lucky those straps held!

We ended the trip in a small field just before the house. As you can see Isa was a little upset that we didn't see anything, but fortunatly there's always a next time.

So signing off from the North....

Where we "hunt" in our backyards, look for "bears and deers'", and get to feeling better too....which is nice!
