Here is the 4D picture of our little angel. This was taken at 26 weeks. It is also when they told us "It's a Boy!"

Thanks for sharing our trip to Montana and Glacier National Park! Hope you enjoyed the views and have an opportunity to visit in your lifetime!

This was our campsite at Avalanche Creek, where the deer were not intimidated by people at all!
This is us at Snyder Lake. This hike was a big one for the pregnant body. The hike had over 2000 feet of elevation gain and was 9 miles overall. However, lunch and Snyder Lake was the reward as well as beautiful scenery along the way!


Here we are at Iceberg Lake. This is a beautiful blue, freezing cold lake, with melting glacier crystals floating on the surface. With all the snow, you would not know that it was about 80 degrees that day. To get to this lake, we hiked 5 miles up 1200 feet of elevation through falls, valleys, and fields of wildflowers.

The pregnant hiker! This suspension bridge crosses a glacial stream that is ice cold. Since it is late June, the waters are rushing. On this trail, the hikers before us saw a Grizzly bear. We were a bit nervous and kept up our "bear calls" to keep him away.

Many Glacier Lake Logan Pass

Welcome to Glacier National Park, Montana, the most beautiful park on earth! From crystal green lakes and streams to soaring peaks, the scenery is unbelievable. An abundance of wildlife live here including Grizzly and black bears, mountain lions, mountain goats, deer, and wildflowers. Also, Glacier traverses the border into Canada and it is designated as an International Peace Park, symbolizing the peaceful relationship along the world's longest undefended border.

We took a trip out west to big sky country Montana for Kirsten's cousin Kaj's wedding. Since the wedding was in Hamilton, which is in western Montana, we took that opportunity to explore, hike, and camp in Glacier National Park for five days. The weather was beautiful while we were there, as was the wedding. The wedding was a really nice chance for our family, who rarely gets together, to catch up and spend some time together.

Here's the baby's first picture ever. Our friend Brian performed the ultrasound very early in the pregnancy. And for those of you wondering, he is a doctor so he knows what he is doing.
