During the trip Fitz reached the 11 month mark. Each month brings new discoveries and you could really see his curiosity was piqued whenever we took him for a walk through the forest down to the dock and lake. He reached out to touch leaves, point at trees, and look around at his surroundings. And he didn’t mind being carried down in the Ergo carrier by his parents.

ABOVE & BELOW: We spent the last night of our vacation back in Ottawa at Carly’s parent’s place where we were reunited with Fitz. Who knew a plastic basin could make such a good pool for such a young kid?
