Lot's going on

Today, we had 3 big things going on. First, it was my dad's 51st, I mean 21st Birthday. Happy Birthday Dad! Second, I got my bottom left wisdom tooth taken out. It was impacted and had partially come out, so I decided to get it taken out before it caused any cavities. Third, at the same time I was going through torture, my parents were dropping off my baby brother, Stuart, at the M.T.C. That boy was so excited to get out of his parents' house. Especially after having a taste of freedom when he went to EAC to go to school. You can write him at:
Elder Stuart Sam Bjarnson
MTC mailbox # 202
S.C.-Colu. 0316
2005 N. 900 E.
Provo, UT 84604-1793
He will be leaving for Columbia, South Carolina on March 16th.
Some upcoming events in our family include: our niece's baby blessing this Sunday; my brother, David's wedding on April 11th; and unless this little boy decides to come earlier, our cesarean is scheduled for April 17th. Another piece of exciting news is my sister-in-law, Cammie, is 10 weeks prego! She's had a couple of miscarriages, so hopefully this one will be a good one. The doc said the baby looks good and it's heart is strong, so we are way thrilled.
Last weekend, we were in Phoenix and Mesa to see Stuart give his non-farewell talk and to hang out with family. On Monday, we went to a park where there is a skateboarding bowl and Dale, Sam, and Flint all rode their new longboards as if they were back in high school again. They had fun together. Joy and her cousin Cooper also rode around in the bowl with their scooters. If you want to see pictures, my sister-in-law, Jan, posted some on her blog, "Here we are."
We got to meet our baby cousin Arlee (I hope I spelled her name right) for the first time. She is so cute! She was wide awake a lot of the time we were there and really happy. She was cooing a little bit, which is always fun to hear. Cooper is very protective of his little sister and will be a good big brother to her.

Sounds like an eventful couple of months. I still can't believe you're having a baby, and a boy. Boys are so much fun, you'll have your hands full, very different from girls.
