Baby time.

Orem, UTAH - at exactly 2:58pm MST, Eli Franklin Monson popped out of Melinda Carrie Monson's tummy and into the cruel, unforgiving Utah desert. Eight blocks away, Carter J. Monson was awaiting Eli's arrival with shovel in hand, excited for the extra help he would recieve on his several large digging projects he has recently undertaken in two nearby sites: the pine tree underneath Runyania, Orem, and the several unused planter boxes at his job site, also in Orem. It is anticipated that Carter will give Eli a three day respice before putting him to heavy work. When asked about her thoughts on the incident, Eli's mother, Melinda Carrie Monson responded, "I think the trip down from heaven was a smart one. We could really use the extra help around the house since certain tenants are fat and lazy and getting fatter and lazier every day."
