Archives for July 2008

You may wonder why I have been such a blog slacker the last month. Truth be told there is a reason. We are expecting Baby #3 in mid-February of 2009. I have been experiencing the tiredness and nausea that go with the first-trimester. Lorelei is so excited and has already named the baby Bluebird and […]

I really should let Steve write this entry in the blog world, but alas it seems it is my job to hold down the journaling fort. Maybe he can be a guest blogger one of these days! But we finally made it to mid-summer and the biggest event for the George boys, the 6 hour […]

So I know you probably won’t believe that Lorelei drew this without any of my help, but it is true. Steve had a track day and while he was gone Lorelei drew this picture of him racing his motorcycle. See the big smile he has on his face. She was disappointed that he wasn’t close […]
