Meet our new addition!

Something new has joined the Dundas Family! No... we are not expecting baby #3 (get that thought out of your head)...what we got is big, red and likes to play in the water! No it's not a dog...but a dog would look really fun in our new addition......
We bought our very own canoe!
We took our canoe out for it's first maiden voyage on Sunday. I contemplated calling the Queen to christen our canoe but I heard she was on vacation at Balmoral and the last I checked Prince William and Kate are a bit busy right now.....so it was up to our little princesses to help us prepare for our journey down the Humber River.
Matilda enjoyed this canoe ride A LOT more than our last one...smiling, laughing and loving standing up and looking over the side of the boat (the crackers I kept feeding her helped too!). Of course she still got to the point again where she was so very tired and needed to sleep which once again elicited those looks from people wondering about the crying baby!
Anna of course loved every minute...especially when we pulled up on the beaches of Lake Ontario to have a picnic and play at the beachfront playground!
Captain Dundas!
Anna did get to the point where she needed to run around so Alastair dropped us off and tested the canoe out on his own....which was fine until.....
It appeared the boat was tipping sideways....Of course if it was just Alastair there would have been nothing to worry about. But what almost gave me a heart attack is what you can't see in the photo - Matilda sleeping in the bottom of the canoe!
