Grandpa and Grandma Carlson and the mink

We enjoyed having my Grandpa and Grandma Carlson visit us from Alaska this past week or so. We were even lucky enough to have them stay with us for a few nights too! Ethan was crazy about them and the little Alaskan bear they brought for him. It had to come to my doctors appointment with us this morning.




And on a bizarre note... there is a mink farm west of our neighborhood where 7,000 mink were let loose Saturday night. They announced this at church yesterday because they were looking for volunteers to help round them up. So after church, we watched them catch a bunch of mink around the neighborhood. We didn't have any in our yard but some one of our neighbors had them come into their house through their doggy door! We weren't much help catching them though- those little creatures will bite!

That's funny because we saw that on the news about the mink last night. Anyways, I was thinking about you today and how we have never gotten together and now it's only 2 weeks before the baby and I'm sad that we haven't gotten together beforehand because it's a while before I start doing things after baby. When is your due date again? Can you believe we're getting so close? Have you been running again with this pregnancy? That's a great 3-D pic of the baby, by the way.

Stacy!!! I'm so glad you left a comment, I've been thinking about you and wondering when you were DUE!! It's gotta be soon, right? I'm so excited for you! Yeah... can you believe I'm pregnant again? What am I in for??? I had fun reading your blog too and seeing what you guys are up to. We will have to get together sometime soon, or after you have the baby so we can see him!
