Junior Mints



















You will soon discover that having a silly nickname is part of being a Carlson. You're only 9 months old and you've already had several. Your first nickname was Peanut and it stuck with you throughout my pregnancy. Grandpa Carlson looked at one of your first ultrasounds and thought you looked like a peanut. So everyday Grandpa Carlson would call and ask "How's Peanut today?"

Within a few short months you began to grow arms and legs and fingers and toes. You no longer looked like a peanut. Your dad and I had been discussing names for you but hadn't decided on one yet so your dad began calling you Junior. He quickly caught a mouth full from everyone for referring to his little girl as Junior so Junior evolved into Junior Mints. You've been daddy's little Junior Mints ever since.
