But in the book version...Renesmee, Jacob, and Bella weren't out for a leisurely stroll in the forest to catch snowflakes. This was the movie version. In the book version, the three are out in the forest, they they're all hunting animals. Jacob was trying to train Renesmee to drink animal blood instead of human blood. So they were out hunting for blood...and this is what Irina actually saw. She saw Renesmee (looking approximately three years old) running through the forest just as quickly as any vampire. Irina also recognized that Renesmee was in the middle of a hunt. So you can see why Irina thought Renesmee was an immortal child. Irina NEVER even suspected that Renesmee was Bella and Edward's daughter since they had only been married little over a month. It's easy to see why Irina would mistake her for an immortal child. Irina didn't wait around to ask or to observe Renesmee more closely because this was a HUGE offence to the Volturi. If Irina hadn't reported it, then somehow Aro sought out Irina for the truth, he'd know that she had known something...and he would have had her killed. Irina was just trying to protect herself...and her family, the Denali's.
