Isla took me fishing!
On a rare sunny day here we headed out across the bay to have a snag. The river was full of pink salmon, yuk, so we passed on catching this afternoon. It was funny watching the ‘out of staters’ with these big piles of spawned out humpies, all excited. But she wanted to go fishing so… Paul

Photos of Isla and her gang
These are some photo’s one of the other parents sent us from some of the kids play groups we go to regularly. She generally spends the first ten minutes staring at what the other kids are doing but then she warms to it gets to playing about. The indoor playground meetup is in the gymnasium of the local technical school and it gives the kids a chance to run about without their winter clothes, the second event is the library ‘play and chat’ where I sit about and talk video games with the other fathers while they play with the awesome toys that are too large/loud to have in a home.

The scoot shuffle crawl
The second day of just the two of us has gone well. Good sleeping, playing and eating. Some of my wee plans have unintended consequences; good meal= sleeping well, both things we can do and are desirable, she has been having all she likes for a day, however the diaper usage has also increased. Ah, the indignities of parenting.
Here is a vid of her ambling SSC across the toy land that is our living room floor, sometimes.
