You people are insane taking these children on this trip!!! Someone should call some child prtection agency in your jurisdiction. There are a 100 things that can go wrong no matter how cautious you think you are. Totally irresponsible in my eyes.
I appreciate your zest for safety but there’s a lot I’m sure you do and are comfortable / experienced with that is more dangerous. For example, driving a car on a highway with your kids is more dangerous than this. If you had the knowledge and experience I do with this type of travel, you would understand.
Nico Nico We should call child protection agency in your jurisdiction for driving your car in the highway with your children in it. Or boarding a plane with your children. 1000 things can go wrong no matter how cautious you think you are. So shut your whole and let people live.
USER No nothing can go wrong there is the MOTHER & FATHER there that know what they are doing !!! In the Olden times THIS WAS A WAY OF LIFE !!! It might be wrong in your eyes but MY EYES SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM DOING THIS !!! I would have let My 2 children go with these 2 PARENTS !!!
Jim and Tori took every precaution known to parents while camping. Jim crossed all running waters all by himself after making sure his family were safe in the other side. Like Linda Petersen said below "No nothing can go wrong there is the MOTHER & FATHER there that know what they are doing."
For all you gung ho parents out there, let me remind you that the captain of the ship suffered some kind of head injury plus exhaustion from his own words and was faced with the responsibility to make sure his family was safe, what if he was carrying that child in his hands? These prolonged and challenging expeditions should not include a child that can't walk let alone swim. There is one thing going camping with your family but another taking your family on these Daniel Boome adventures. I am unsubscribing from this channel. Never do this again!
Jim and Tori, I been watching you two for awhile and I can truly say that I have noticed such growth in Wesley. You two just keep doing what you’re doing with him and Wesley will continue to thrive and grow beyond measure.
Tori, you are an amazing woman, mom and wife. Can you imagine as a baby, floating on a river going up and down rapids? It's like 10 days of rides for them. Hard work for the parents, but you could tell that both children loved being outside with you.
You two are a total inspiration. What it must take to plan a trip like this with two young children, let alone one with a disability, is amazing. Just because a child has a disability doesn't mean they can't experience things that others do. To see the smiles on Wesley's face is just wonderful, and the interaction with his brother is beautiful. No one knows what the mind is capable of - even more so in the mind of someone with a disability. Unforeseen occurrences befall everyone and no life is lived well when you worry about all the 'what ifs'. You can't help what happens on a trip - like this or otherwise - and its clear you didn't plan for problems to take place just for sensationalism. You had a contingency, and that's what matters. It's clear you love both boys equally. To leave the boys home would be heart-breaking for you both. You don't live your lives in fear and you're a family that enjoys life. Keep it that way. Well done to you both.
Thanks for watching! Please subscribe and stay tuned for my next adventure series, a 10 day backcountry snowshoe trek in the wilds of Northern Ontario.
My family and I used to fish the French river out at woosley bay back when I was a kid in 1985 for about 5 years I went with my dad and uncle and grandpa and cousin!!
Torie is a beast, you are blessed to have her Jim. It takes great cooperation to accomplish the adventures you have with your family. I love Wesley he is a special soul, and Hudson is a genuine young man. I am surprised to see Hudson walk so well at such a young age. . Future explorer of the great outdoors!
I’ve been privileged like many other supporters all over the world enjoying Jim and Tori outdoor expiring expeditions and I encourage everyone to get outdoors especially with your children and go out as often as you can. It’s the most therapeutic feeling of living life in our natural environments and why not share this with your children. Thank you bud and Tori for yet another Stellar family holiday and taking us with you along the way 👊
I used to have to travel 5 1/2 hours with 2 children by myself !!! Load the car up the night before and then on the road to another STATE by myself !!! When we stopped it was for gas or changing diapers but getting food into them and EXERCISE for them also !!! It was rough sometimes I had flats on the road or something would go wrong with the car BUT I DID IT !!! I made a purse for my first born to have things in it for her to play with in the car ONLY THERE !!! Treasure BOX was son's thing with small cars or trucks for him with things for his AGE but not to go down his throat !!! If YOU LOVE YOUR CHILDREN with ALL your HEART YOU KEEP them close to you YOU WATCH THEM LIKE A HAWK !!! Love how JIMBO AND TORI TAKE CARE OF THE CHILDREN !!! Weslyn is HAPPY SMILING AND SAME WITH HUDSON !!! I wish to GOD I COULD go back in time to be with my Children for a weekend like this again !!!
Your family is such a team! I think it is the right thing to do to take the kids on these trips. Mama Bear and Papa Bear will ensure that they are safe and sound. Kudos to you!
Keep it up my friend! Don't listen to the haters you're absolutely amazing for including the kids in your adventures and giving them a once in a lifetime adventure! ❤
And dad, mom, when you go on your other trips without the kids they can fully understand what you had been working with as you were away another time to relate with the children, creating a healthier family in so many ways...blessings...m
Fantastic content, enjoyed watching this one so much; Jim and Tori keep doing what you're doing, both Wesley and Hudson have been gifted with two of the best parents one could have or ever wish for....and North is the guiding light....lucky pup. What an incredible memory. for you all. Thank you so much for the journey.
Love how much fun you are all having. Huddy saying Ya with his hand in the air like his dad and uncle is priceless. Looks like an awesome river to paddle. Love your content!
Jimbo & Tori just LOVE THE WAY you love these 2 children !!! You are watching on out for their safety and well being !!! North is with you also !!! LOVE THE WAY WESLYN SMILES and the YEAH out of Hudson MAN DOES he have that down pat haha !!!
You guys are amazing!! We are binge watching alllll your shows for weeks now. We live about 20 minutes from you- and in the same town as Wesley’s school. We hope to run into you one day in our travels … Love how you guys take your kids are all these adventures, it’s a true gift to your family. You guys rock!
Well you did it.. well done. This is true quality time with your children. My husband and I did the same with every adventure we had we took the children all three of them with. They invited a few friends over one evening and shared many of our exciting experiences that we had with them and with much laughter and bantering. They all in their 50s now and that’s the loving bond you want to leave them with. You need an award for the challenges you had. Advise.. Do not let your guard down not even for a minute. Stay safe you keep us all inspired. ❤
Long time viewer but firsr time commenter! Ive actually watched this trip twice now and i gotta say, i really admire your relationship you two have! Tori, you are one of the more pacient and caring mothers/partners ive ever come across. Just your entire demeanor, i honestly just wish i was your friend because id love our families to explore together! Thanks for always sharing, beats any reality tv show haha
Jim and Tori, you two are synchronized! I admire Jim for always acknowledging you Tori. Tori you are an amazing woman! A supermom! Wesley what a happy boy! Hudson….eeehh yeah! What a fun baby! Thank you Jim and Tory for sharing your great family adventure!😊
Everyone has eloquently said it all. You are a blessed man, Jim! Tori is amazing. The children are precious. What a good dog North is especially as a puppy. The whole adventure was entertaining, relaxing, and soul refreshing. Thank you.
I'm a single parent I have takin my daughter tent camping many time with her friends you two are amazing what you do I give you all my respect do not listen to these negative people yes there are risks tell me what in life doesn't have them kids that grow up doing these things have something inside them that other kids will not God bless and keep moving forward
I’m sitting here thinking about an adventure with my 3yo and almost taking myself out of it and I come across your absolute unit of a family!! Truly incredible all of you! Great work! Keep giving them kids an amazing life and nature education! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I’m not going to worry about taking my daughter now!!
Absolutely breathtaking. What an amazing adventure. I commend you for bringing your kids and exposing them to nature on this level. They will forever benefit from it! Side note, can we talk about the music!? Perfectly placed and beautifully matched to the surroundings and the feeling of the adventure itself. ❤
I am very impressed with your love and opportunity you give to your children to experience the outdoors, although uncommon perhaps, but brings such obvious joy to them. It is hard to put a measuare on your experience given that you have been doing outdoor adventures probably since you were walking as well with an outdoor family of your own, Jim. Tori excels in the outdoors and I've keenly watched in appreciation for her loving care and concern for the children yet allowing them to experience it under her unwavering eye. You are both incredible people, intelligent, skilled and sharing something with the public that is also rather uncommon to see. Your children will grow in skill and confidence, not to mention that ever watching pet, North. I know huskies Jim...they are protective and love their people! North keeps track of you more than you may realize, especially the two little ones! I certainly miss my paddling days and actually you reinvigorate my memories, such that I might just get back to it this spring!
Jim I thought you were in destructible having watched you on several far Northern River trips like the seal... Hang in there buddy. This is the first time I've seen the children... Quite an adventure such a brave little family
@@JimBairdAdventurer I'm 74 now here in northern Minnesota and I recall many times dragging a canoe through the brush on the way to that special secret lake that probably has brook trout in it. Now I drive to the put in and when I get home I watch you and your brother dragging canoes through the brush. 😉 Big hugs from curt on the River. .
Love how you guys did this with your kids! Wesley has the best name ever (might be a bias)! Love how Huddy is slowly mastering the Jim Baird signature yeahhhhhhhh
Man I have been there before. Red headed summer time heat exhaustion it’s a real thing. This dude is a warrior tho damn. I’m shocked he was able to keep going I always had to sleep till at least the sun went down. As soon as his beautiful wife said he doesn’t know what’s going on a hart attack or something. It took me back to 2006 1st day canoe trip down vermilion river. Just barely made to shore. Sleeping on rocks didn’t even bother me. Man be safe u guys you have a beautiful family and good luck on ur adventures u all sure seem like ur living life the way it should be lived.
Nice! And yes she is. My wife would probably say that your wife is obviously very smart. Different climate in AZ for sure but it’s such a beautiful state! I’ve been there several times. More public land than any other state I believe
I've been watching you guys from DAY 1, I absolutely love you all so very much! You both are wonderful parents 🥰 ...Tori you are such a beautiful person inside and out. From one Mama Bear to another.... We are strong and can totally get shxt 😂 done when needed. You go girl!! Keep up the family trip adventures it's so fun to watch the babies grow. Much love, load's of prayer for good health to Jim. ❤
Thank La very much for watching and for dropping the great comment. I’ll pass this on to Tori and yes, indeed she does get shixt done! Haha. Have a great day.
I have always loved this channel and all your adventures. Seeing you with your family makes it that much more special. As a father of two, who are just starting to have adventures with me, I can't express how much I enjoy watching and what I have to look forward to. Great content as always, and God bless. Missouri USA.
Thank you for sharing your family adventure with us. You are such a beautiful family and you are raising your children wonderfully by showing them the outdoors. Truly amazing. It’s great to see a family actually experiencing this journey together with full attention, awareness, and being present with your surroundings, and each other instead of sitting next to each other on devices completely empty. I feel like this is becoming more rare to see and it’s a breath of fresh air and gives me hope. Keep doing what you’re doing you beautiful people.
Just recently discovered youtube on my new smart tv. youtube presented me with your vids and have been watching them and I am totally amazed! But I cannot leave comments on the TV, so here I am on my laptop. This trip on the French brings back fond memories from the early 90's when my newly acquired step son and I did basically the same trip in a 16 ft Grumman. Aluminum was "in" in those days. Warms my heart. I love canoeing and have memories of whacky trips like the weekend trip down the Johns from Cartier to Espanola Bay on Lake Agnew, talk about no sleep and a lot of lining and rocks! I am 70 now and wish I could still do it. Thanks! Don, from Manitoulin Island On.
Awesome Don, thanks a lot for sharing and I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos. Those aluminum Grumman canoes have a lot going for them still. They’re making new ones but really, one made many years ago is just as good as a new one in most cases!
Definitely, the best prepared and most interesting canoe-camping trip I have seen in the past 25 years. You are an incredible, courageous and united family. The 4 of you have the right to be proud of yourself. It has been a privilege to follow you on your expedition...Thank you thank you, thank you.
Just wanted to let you know that I enjoyed this documentary. Watching your journey made me feel like I was right there with you. You guys did a fantastic job.
Great video Tori and Jim. I was very blessed watching both of you navigate through the adventure as a married couple with your family. Keep up the wonderful videos!
Hi Jim and family, I love watching your adventures, truly enjoyable seeing the whole family sharing special time together, you take care Jim you really push yourself mate
you folks are awesome….I’m very proud of your adventures. Did some as a single parent…but wished I had the friendship to build the bravery and knowledge your family has achieved
I'm so glad you were okay and you were all able to paddle the full route. That last morning was a spectacular last morning. Absolutely beautiful! And the boys have definitely benefitted from the experience ❤
Bonjour Jim et Tori, les enfants..vous avez beaucoup de chance d'avoir une épouse " très solide" qui gère les enfants , le bateau..etc..quand vous n'êtes pas bien..prenez soin de vous, et écoutez votre corps🙂..une très belle aventure en famille..des images superbes...bon courage🛶...très belle vidéo
I'm watching the part with the geese flying overhead. I live on the Kankakee River in Illinois, the geese never leave and fly south in the winter and north in the summer. They stay all year long and it's becoming a problem. They poop all over our beautiful park and it can't be used because of it. Many generations of geese now in our area who have no idea they are supposed to migrate. When the river freezes in the winter the dam area stays open because of the moving water and I would venture to say we then have well over a thousand geese here. I think in the near future there will be more geese than the population of my small town. Sadly I used to like geese but these days not so much. Love your videos, I too took my kids camping and boating when they were young, it's a huge amount of work and I applaud you and Torie for taking this on.
Tori you are a strong 💪 AWESOME Super mom! I can relate my son was born with SpinaBifada all the challenges that go along with having a child with special needs you make it seem so easy! Our family loves camping and boating as well but lost my husband in an automobile accident and my son had to have his leg amputated it has seemed to have totally altered my life drastically but I love watching you and hubby and it gives me so much joy and makes my day! Keep your boys by your side on these happy adventures for me and my boys that was the happiest times of our life’s!❤❤❤❤
Watched from start to finish - excellent adventure and a wonderful family time - North deserves some bonus points for exemplary good behaviour - thank you and cheers
Jim you hit the jackpot on North. He is a blessing to your already incredible family. Every video I see how well he looks out for you and your family. Love your adventures buddy!
I just found your channel a few weeks ago and I have truly enjoyed going through your playlist and you have such a beautiful and amazing family God bless you guys
Last year I was so sick all I could do was watch your adventure videos, which inspired me to go on a two month cycling tour to Newfoundland this year from Ontario. Thanks for sharing your adventures God bless you and your family 😊
Jim, and Tori, what an incredible journey you guys had made through the French River in Ontario with your babies and your dog!!! It takes a lot of guts, courage, knowledge, planning, and confidence in your habilitéis to manage eventualities in your canoe, to keep yourselves, and your children safe, and secure under those rainy weather conditions, and the river rapids. Your guys were positive, and motivated, most of the time even when Jim was sick. I love your nurturing bonding time with both children!!! ❤❤The best to you and your family!!!
I saw that earlier comment! I work for Child Protective Services and I feel safer with Tori and Jim anywhere compared to the classroom! I admire your wholesome life! I grew up in the Berkshire mountains, 45 minutes drive to the nearest highway. I grew up skiing, camping and fishing and canoeing. My happy place!!
I just caught up with you guys, enjoying these beautiful trips and the family. I have to say Jim that you have a super woman of a wife. She deserves the golden oscar award for the strongest all around. CONGRATULATIONS!!
I loved this vídeo, congratulations for you and your wife for the greatest adventure that you provide specialy for that childrens. My names Sidney and I live in Brazil
Hello mate as a parent of a child with disability i almost cried purely by happiness looking at your kids esp wesley. I hope 1 day i have the courage to do what you are doing. Keeps safet mate!
Will do that this really means a lot to me. We actually shot four episodes with NatGeo when they followed us on some of our outdoor adventures with Wesley and Hudson. It covers a lot of triumphs and challenges of being out there with a child who has disabilities. Here’s a link to it. www.disneyplus.com/series/home-in-the-wild/2PmOmgqDygj9
Beautiful adventure and country views. The baby sounds frustrated quite a bit. He may feel restricted being in a canoe during the day and in a chair at camp. Kiddos need freedom to move and freely play. Adventure on, good people, adventure on!

I adore your family adventures!! Huddlie and Wesley both seem like they love the adventures as well. Peace and blessings to your family!

You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around, that's what it's all about. So love your energy.
Jim and Tori, you two are synchronized!
I admire Jim for always acknowledging you Tori.
Tori you are an amazing woman! A supermom!
Wesley what a happy boy!
Hudson….eeehh yeah! What a fun baby!

I enjoy your channel so much! It's the best to relax too in the evenings. Thank you Baird family💞

Yes!!!! How powerful ❤
Thank you for sharing these videos.
Jim and Tori this was a very tender family event…thanks for the privilege to share
I love how as North lays down next to Hudson he puts his hand straight out onto him true animal lover there
Indeed, Hudson and North are the same age. We got North when Hudson was less than two months old.

Do I see Wesley sitting without backrest? Great!
You do! He’s been able to do that for some time now and can catch himself if he tops over from the sitting position now too! Standing is next
@@JimBairdAdventurer that's a milestone!
LOVED Hudson's little paddle at 2:09:20!
Looks like 2 young brothers really enjoy one another company.
Thank-you. Your kindness in sharing helps those who dream of these adventures. High'5s
You’re welcome, thanks for the high fives

I really enjoyed this video - my best memories were camping and being on the water growing up. I would have loved this trip as a kid!!!
Thank you very much! I bet you would have for sure. It was a lot of fun.

You are a role model for a good father to his family. God bless your family. Greetings to you, brother ❤🙏🏻
Thank you very much. Best compliment I could get.
Good looking family! My wife says you have a GOOD wife! Great content to watch on an early cool Saturday morning in southern Arizona!
Nice! And yes she is. My wife would probably say that your wife is obviously very smart. Different climate in AZ for sure but it’s such a beautiful state! I’ve been there several times. More public land than any other state I believe
@@JimBairdAdventurer Yes, there’s plenty of public land to explore! And, yes, my wife thinks she’s very smart too!
I've been watching you guys from DAY 1, I absolutely love you all so very much! You both are wonderful parents 🥰 ...Tori you are such a beautiful person inside and out. From one Mama Bear to another.... We are strong and can totally get shxt 😂 done when needed. You go girl!! Keep up the family trip adventures it's so fun to watch the babies grow. Much love, load's of prayer for good health to Jim. ❤
Thank La very much for watching and for dropping the great comment. I’ll pass this on to Tori and yes, indeed she does get shixt done! Haha. Have a great day.
Love to see your vids with your family. Especially Wesley is so supercute!!
Amazingly family oriented experience for everyone, thanks from our family to yours :)
You are very welcome, thanks for watching
Big 👍🏻. Awesome parents. Your kids will always remember these times. Prayers and love to you all from Arkansas 👍🏻💛💛💛🙏🏻🇺🇸
Thank you!
“I don’t know if you do anything lightly! “ classic! You two are awesome.
Haha, thanks a lot
I have always loved this channel and all your adventures. Seeing you with your family makes it that much more special. As a father of two, who are just starting to have adventures with me, I can't express how much I enjoy watching and what I have to look forward to. Great content as always, and God bless. Missouri USA.
Thanks a lot and it’s great you can relate and hopefully get a feel for the family adventure aspect. It’s a lot of work but we’ll worth it.
Thank you for sharing your family adventure with us. You are such a beautiful family and you are raising your children wonderfully by showing them the outdoors. Truly amazing.
It’s great to see a family actually experiencing this journey together with full attention, awareness, and being present with your surroundings, and each other instead of sitting next to each other on devices completely empty.
I feel like this is becoming more rare to see and it’s a breath of fresh air and gives me hope.
Keep doing what you’re doing you beautiful people.
Thank for an amazing videos, such a great family experiencing amazing experience in an amazing setting❤❤❤
Absolutely excellent. Great pace, great video, great adventure, great narration. Great looking hilux too by the way.
Wow, that's dope. You guys killed it with 2 young ones.
Just recently discovered youtube on my new smart tv. youtube presented me with your vids and have been watching them and I am totally amazed! But I cannot leave comments on the TV, so here I am on my laptop. This trip on the French brings back fond memories from the early 90's when my newly acquired step son and I did basically the same trip in a 16 ft Grumman. Aluminum was "in" in those days. Warms my heart. I love canoeing and have memories of whacky trips like the weekend trip down the Johns from Cartier to Espanola Bay on Lake Agnew, talk about no sleep and a lot of lining and rocks! I am 70 now and wish I could still do it. Thanks! Don, from Manitoulin Island On.
Awesome Don, thanks a lot for sharing and I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos. Those aluminum Grumman canoes have a lot going for them still. They’re making new ones but really, one made many years ago is just as good as a new one in most cases!
Can't stop watching!!!
I love watching both boys, so HEALING to me
Thank you very much! It would have been better if Hudson didn’t throw one of our new GoPros into the river with a tin of footage on it! Haha 😔
I've shared these videos with my kids!!
😭😍 they are such a blessing!!
You guys are amazing, the lil bickering and all!!!
Love the transparency 😎
Definitely, the best prepared and most interesting canoe-camping trip I have seen in the past 25 years. You are an incredible, courageous and united family. The 4 of you have the right to be proud of yourself. It has been a privilege to follow you on your expedition...Thank you thank you, thank you.
Just wanted to let you know that I enjoyed this documentary. Watching your journey made me feel like I was right there with you. You guys did a fantastic job.
Beautiful family and beautiful footage of a wonderful part of Ontario. This is how families probably did it 200 years ago.
Great video Tori and Jim. I was very blessed watching both of you navigate through the adventure as a married couple with your family. Keep up the wonderful videos!
Found it Jim. Glad you’re ok. Great video. What a beautiful family you have.
May God continue to bless you and yours.
Thank you very Kiven’s me glad I could help you find the video again
Amazing life for you and your children! Bravo🎉
Thanks very much
You guys are way beyond awesome. Reminds me a lot of how our fam lived in the seventies. Love you and keep it up!🏕️
Hi Jim and family, I love watching your adventures, truly enjoyable seeing the whole family sharing special time together, you take care Jim you really push yourself mate
I think you are all awesome! You are a beautiful family ❤
Well thank very much 😊
An amazing couple and amazing kids. ❤
Thanks a lot
you folks are awesome….I’m very proud of your adventures. Did some as a single parent…but wished I had the friendship to build the bravery and knowledge your family has achieved
What a fantastic dog and family member. Yay North!
I'm so glad you were okay and you were all able to paddle the full route. That last morning was a spectacular last morning. Absolutely beautiful! And the boys have definitely benefitted from the experience ❤
Bonjour Jim et Tori, les enfants..vous avez beaucoup de chance d'avoir une épouse " très solide" qui gère les enfants
, le bateau..etc..quand vous n'êtes pas bien..prenez soin de vous, et écoutez votre corps🙂..une très belle aventure en famille..des images superbes...bon courage🛶...très belle vidéo
Like watching .your a family doing family things .pay no mind to those who cant see that . Enjoy .👍
Thanks
I'm watching the part with the geese flying overhead. I live on the Kankakee River in Illinois, the geese never leave and fly south in the winter and north in the summer. They stay all year long and it's becoming a problem. They poop all over our beautiful park and it can't be used because of it. Many generations of geese now in our area who have no idea they are supposed to migrate. When the river freezes in the winter the dam area stays open because of the moving water and I would venture to say we then have well over a thousand geese here. I think in the near future there will be more geese than the population of my small town. Sadly I used to like geese but these days not so much. Love your videos, I too took my kids camping and boating when they were young, it's a huge amount of work and I applaud you and Torie for taking this on.
I enjoyed seeing your family adventure on Northern Ontario's French River.
Thanks very much 85 was a great trip!
Tori you are a strong 💪 AWESOME Super mom! I can relate my son was born with SpinaBifada all the challenges that go along with having a child with special needs you make it seem so easy! Our family loves camping and boating as well but lost my husband in an automobile accident and my son had to have his leg amputated it has seemed to have totally altered my life drastically but I love watching you and hubby and it gives me so much joy and makes my day! Keep your boys by your side on these happy adventures for me and my boys that was the happiest times of our life’s!❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much. Have a good time watching you guys beautiful family. God bless you.
You guys are one great family that is so cool you and the kids and your wife God bless you and your family and you guys are super cool
Watched from start to finish - excellent adventure and a wonderful family time - North deserves some bonus points for exemplary good behaviour - thank you and cheers
Jim you hit the jackpot on North. He is a blessing to your already incredible family. Every video I see how well he looks out for you and your family. Love your adventures buddy!

You’re very welcome! Thanks a lot for watching.
Last year I was so sick all I could do was watch your adventure videos, which inspired me to go on a two month cycling tour to Newfoundland this year from Ontario. Thanks for sharing your adventures God bless you and your family 😊
That must have been amazing! How many moose did you see going through Grose Morn? What a huge island that is.
Jim should have 5 million subs .. thanks for sharing your adventures !!!
You’re welcome!
Your adventure in nature is so good for your babies !! Amazing memories you will have as a family. Love following your dreams
Came to your channel from Xander and I gotta say I’m so impressed! Amazing videos truly
Big thanks, I appreciate you coming over and am super glad to hear you’re enjoying the content. Great to have ya here
Jim Baird awesome husband cool papa!! God bless forever following and watching u guys
TORRIE, YOU ROCK IT, LIKE A ROCK STAR!! AWESOME MOTHER & PARTNER IN ADVENTURE!!💃🏻🙏🏽🕊💃🏻💪🏽❤️🛶🏕️
Jim, and Tori, what an incredible journey you guys had made through the French River in Ontario with your babies and your dog!!! It takes a lot of guts, courage, knowledge, planning, and confidence in your habilitéis to manage eventualities in your canoe, to keep yourselves, and your children safe, and secure under those rainy weather conditions, and the river rapids. Your guys were positive, and motivated, most of the time even when Jim was sick. I love your nurturing bonding time with both children!!! ❤❤The best to you and your family!!!
I saw that earlier comment! I work for Child Protective Services and I feel safer with Tori and Jim anywhere compared to the classroom! I admire your wholesome life! I grew up in the Berkshire mountains, 45 minutes drive to the nearest highway. I grew up skiing, camping and fishing and canoeing. My happy place!!
Thanks a lot for your feedback and for checking out the video. It is a great way to grow up indeed. Have an awesome week!
I just caught up with you guys, enjoying these beautiful trips and the family. I have to say Jim that you have a super woman of a wife. She deserves the golden oscar award for the strongest all around. CONGRATULATIONS!!
I love Tories paddle and the little paddle of little sweet son. We are very happy to watch your videos from Germany.
I loved this vídeo, congratulations for you and your wife for the greatest adventure that you provide specialy for that childrens. My names Sidney and I live in Brazil
Hello mate as a parent of a child with disability i almost cried purely by happiness looking at your kids esp wesley. I hope 1 day i have the courage to do what you are doing. Keeps safet mate!
Will do that this really means a lot to me. We actually shot four episodes with NatGeo when they followed us on some of our outdoor adventures with Wesley and Hudson. It covers a lot of triumphs and challenges of being out there with a child who has disabilities. Here’s a link to it. www.disneyplus.com/series/home-in-the-wild/2PmOmgqDygj9
Tori you are an amazing woman and mamma!!!! Such an inspiration! 🤗 I just love you guys. What a freakin adventure!!
Beautiful adventure and country views. The baby sounds frustrated quite a bit. He may feel restricted being in a canoe during the day and in a chair at camp. Kiddos need freedom to move and freely play. Adventure on, good people, adventure on!
Great video, beautiful family, incredible lifestyle. Never give it up. God Bless you and your wonderful family…
