Bo

The last two weekends have been ladies conferences here which are always busy, Andy and Isabelle didn't really see much of each other and I could tell she missed him because she was unusually clingy. She loves her daddy lots. When we go for walks, when we get near the main hall kitchen she starts bouncing in her stroller, she knows this is where Daddy works. The other day I was showing her our wedding albums and every time there was a picture of Andy she started bouncing and making her happy noise. It's so fun to see her love her Daddy so much! We stop by the kitchen to say hi to him most days.


On Monday we took a family day and went across to Vancouver Island with no agenda really. This is rare, the thing with Isaland life is that when you make the time to go across on the ferry (which isn't cheap) then you are going to cram as much into that day as possible, groceries, appointments, visits, shopping, we rarely go across just to relax.

We went to Victoria for the day, walked along the beach, went to the petting zoo and park, it was so nice. We bought Isabelle a pair of 'walking wings' they stap around her then I can hold the straps and she can walk instead of me bending over so she can walk holding her fingers. They make us both very happy, I don't have to be a hunchback and she can walk to her hearts content...perfect!

The petting zoo was a highlight, there were a whole bunch of little kid's, only about a week old. There was one I saw and said "ooo he's cute!" I just really like animals with chocolate brown fur. His name was Bo and not only was he the only goat Issi was interested in, she was the only person he liked. She petted to her hearts content and he tried to eat her dress, it was pretty sweet. They were looking for a home for Bo!

we are hoping to go across for another such family day tomorrow.
