Last 5 months in review

It’s the end of January 2022. Caspian is just about to turn 5 months old and It’s just about time again that I have to go back to work. My time with Caspian and Erin has been full and entertaining, but work calls, and hunting season is just around the corner. The following is a review of the past 5 months with our newborn. But the rest of this book will be my personal experiences of the hunting season ahead in 2022.

Caspian was born Sep 6 2021

      Shelley Caspian is 9 months now and he is more active than ever no. Totally mobile. Stands with no assistance, walks with little assistance and crawls everywhere. He absolutely loves the outdoors and we will be going to BC soon. Can’t wait to show him the Rockies.
