A week of whales

This week has been busy- we have had nine whales landed in the last week and a half and have been very busy at times! Right now, things have slowed down and I have some time to type...though motors become legal to use tomorrow so I suspect things may get busy quick. Gage is asleep in the crook of my arm. He has pretty much outgrown his 6 month old clothing... we are now in 6-12 month! He isdrooling and teething quite a bit- a pretty new development for him... no teeth yet though. We have also noted that he is putting a lot more firm weight on his feet and will stand a lot longer with support... he is a happy baby...we just need to get him into his crib!

Ken built a birdhouse this week and one of our males moved in almost immediately. I am in the middle of smoking about 15 lbs. of bowhead meat right underneath it...he hasn't seemed too happy!

Finally, National Geographic has been up here all week, filming the butchering and Craig and I doing our work. It was ok, but got a little annoying after a while. We will see how things turn out...hopefully they will make a cool film.

Leave some comments! I don't know if anyone is even looking at this besides me!
