Title: My lil' huntin' buddy! pic
Post by: Mike Bolin on November 30, 2008, 06:30:00 PM
My grandson finally grew into his camo that we bought him. Still a bit small for deer huntin' this season, but I am in the market for a ground blind for spring turkey. Probably won't kill a turkey, but at least I will get him started out right! I've got a little yew stave set aside to build him a bow this winter.

Andrew is doing great, although there still may be a pacemaker in his future. He  is at 22# from his birth weight of 3# 13 oz. Looking forward to teaching him to shoot and watching him grow. Won't be too long until I will need some help loading deer so it's good to have a new huntin' buddy! Mike

frassettor-it was awfully hard watching him and his mom and dad leave this morning. Grandkids are a different kind of special!

Is it just me or does anyone else see the resemblance?

Put a cap and a beard on him and he'd look just like grandpa.    :archer:

He is truly a gift. It doesn't look like he lacks for enthusiasm either.   :goldtooth:

Thanks guys! He is a special little fellar for sure. 2 months premature with a prediagnosed heart condition, but he is doing great. I am anxious for him to be big enough to take to the woods, but at the same time I am enjoying watching him grow. Keep him in your prayers! Mike

He is a great looking young man  :thumbsup:  Time fly's so fast Mike at our age, his will seem to also. Dang they grow so fast, you will be out in the yard shooting that yew bow before you know it. And what a treat it is to get them started. Such special times to come  :campfire:

Looks like he's waitin to go huntin. Year or two away from the ground blind Mike. It's hard to shoot your bow with a young whippersnapper on your knee. Time will fly by fast and he'll be a great hunting partner before you know it. Enjoy the time they grow up fast.
