All about George

Here are some pictures of life with George, from the beginning to present....  ENJOY!

 In the beginning....

still feeling good... 

 Not sure you can really see this...but I am  at the worst of my labor with no epidural.  Something happened with the tube and it wasn't getting to me anymore.  I was in ALOT of pain.  Natural labor pain for 2 HOURS...not GOOD!!!!!

 I got a new epidural and gave birth to our sweet boy, George

 This is one of my FAVORITE photos.

 Here he is...George Jack Lorenzen...I call him Georgie right now

 Not even having him for a full 24 hours and we had to have him put in NICU, it was hard for us

 We could only hold him for 30 minutes for feedings, and then we had to put him back in his tanning bed.

 It was so hard to have him hooked up to machines and see him pricket and tests run on him...It was very difficult.

Grandma getting in on feeding time...

I know Georgie looks chubby but really he isn't that chubby he just has the full cheeks.  I think he looks like a Newell from the nose up and Zac from his nose down.  He is such a good baby, we survived our 1st night all together...and these night feedings are a whole new way of life.

We love it and he is worth all of it!!!!! 

We will post more pictures soon...alot more.

For those that don't love the name, George Jack Lorenzen it will grow on you.  When you see him you will see why we called him George...he looks like a George.

George is named after Zac's Grandfather

Jack is the name Zac wanted as it is JJ and Zac put together (just like my name was my parents name put together)

Lorenzen...well of course...you can figure this one out.



Family Photos

The Lorenzen Family 2012

My Sister-in-law, Julie introduced me to her friend, Amanda who takes photos.  I was going to get family/pregnancy pictures if it killed me.  On this day I was having so many contractions that I thought we would be heading to the hospital right after we were done.  Needless to say it didn't quite happen that way...but we were really happy with our pictures.  ENJOY!

EASTER

EASTER 2012

Alexander was so excited to see where the Easter Bunny hide his basket

Here I am showing off the ever GROWING belly

Alexander on the hunt

 The Easter Basket was finally found, next year the Easter Bunny is going to have to find a harder place to hide his basket.

 Daddy found his Easter Basket

 If there is one thing I am grateful for it's have the Adam's and Sharron Krebs close by.  They are family in every way and they are always looking out for us.  We were invited over to Sharron Kreb's house for EASTER DINNER and it was so much fun.  Great company, great food, and the Easter Bunny had left the kids eggs to hunt.  We could not have asked for a better way to celebrate Easter.

 Greg Adam's, Grandpa Hancock, and Zac

 The amazing family that made Easter Dinner possible

 The Easter Hunt was on...

Catching up Posting

Some happy news we forgot to post about was Zac getting a promotion at Work.  I am very proud of him, especially since he is working full-time, going to school full-time, and he still works hard at his church calling as ward missionary.  We works so hard, he an amazing father, a wonderful husband, and I am grateful that the Lord blessed me with such a great husband!

Our own KUNG FU son...

 Alexander is a very smart child but he has a lot of energy...so much that a few of his teachers suggested we put him in Kung Fu to help him focus.  Thanks to Farmor and Farfar helping out with the cost of classes, Alexander is learning the art of Kung Fu and hopefully "focus".  He loves his classes and he practices, we just have to make sure he doesn't practice on anyone! 

Recently he earned the "white sash" the first level of Kung Fu and he was so happy and excited.  He keeps asking when he can go up to the next level, "yellow sash"...patience is also going to be learned.  We are proud of our little guy, he is going to be a GREAT big brother.

1st Grade Singing Recital

Alexander had his 1st Grade Singing Recital.  It was a Disney theme, which is why he is wearing a Disney shirt with his church suit.  He was so excited, and we love going to these events...it's never a dull moment.

Proud parents of this little guy!
