Fine! Belly Pics…

Saturday, June 28th, 2008

Just for Lisa, here are the latest belly pics. The first one is the progression from the beginning to week 24, the second one was on my birthday at week 27. For some reason I’m having trouble getting that last one to attach to the series photo, no idea why, since I’m doing […]

Dawn Patrol

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

You might remember what I wrote about Mike Janelle back in November. Since then, his wife Maribel gave birth to their son, and named him after his father, and a fantastic fund has been set up to help support Maribel and Mike Jr. It looks like Larry Leith, the founder of Tokyo […]
