A beautiful weekend of Hiking, Hunting (for shrooms), and eating . . .
We took Oscar on his very first camping trip over the weekend. Well sort of, we pitched a tent out on our friend Tom's farm within easy reach of the farm house in the event of bad weather or uncooperative baby. It went well though and he was lulled to sleep by spring peepers (frogs) and the wind. Then reciprocally was awoken at an inhumane hour (to adults) by a chorus of birds. We parents learned a few things but we look forward to more camping trips.
He also had his first fishing trip. But mama wouldn't allow him in the canoe just yet, even though Dad is all ready with the infant life jacket (which is really cute by the way and will at least be tested in the pool this summer).
AND it was his first morrell hunt. Oscar & Dad found about six, and mama only three . . .
But fortunately Nancy (very happy to finally meet Oscar) has a better nose for the sneaky little shrooms and in cooperation with Steve, Wes,Lynn & Tom, found plenty for a feast.
For those that can't see the little guy too frequently and wonder how big he is getting, compare this picture to the February 18th posting http://2007littlebugger.blogspot.com/2008/02/oscar-and-friends.html he's about 12 lbs or so now.

All around a fantastic two days of perfect weather and gluttony
