Ronnie, Lindsay, and Brendan came for a visit this weekend. They, of course, brought the granddog, Mercedes. She is a little Morkie (Maltese and Yorkie) and is about 4 pounds. Our dogs weren't sure what to think of her, but at least they didn't eat her.
That was exciting, but not as exciting as the news they brought. They told us they had a present for us in the trunk of their car. We took the keys and went out to look. There was a rock that said "Baby boy Thinnes" carved into it. My first reaction was elation that we were going to have another grandchild. Then about half-way into the house I said to Doug "Wait a minute. How do they know it's going to be a boy?" She is actually 22 weeks along and has kept it a secret all this time! We're talking about Lindsay here!!!! She doesn't keep secrets! But this one is one she really kept, even through the announcement that Logan and Rachelle are expecting again. She is due 3 months before they are. After the shock, we are all very excited to have our first grandson in February and another grandchild in May. It will be fun for the two of them to grow up together.
