Jared and Kristi Awesome Blog, Great Job! » Pictures

Finally…

kristi — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 21:23:31 +0000

We’ve been having problems with the website and it’s been giving us a hard time when we try to upload pictures so they’ve been piling up. So now that it is working again, here are pictures from the last month. Today Jared put together Parker’s jumperoo and we tested it out. Apparently she’s not tall enough yet… There are some pictures of that included:)

I can’t believe she will be 2 months old tomorrow! It’s flying by. She has her 2 month Well Baby visit to the doctor on Monday so I’m sure I will be putting up an update to let everyone know how big she has grown:)

Growing girl

kristi — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 23:35:47 +0000

She just keeps getting bigger every day:) She was 6lbs 6oz at birth, 6lbs 1oz the day we left the hospital, 6lbs 4oz at her first doctor visit at 4 days old, 7lbs 7oz at her 2-week visit on January 15, and Monday we will see how much more she’s grown when I take her for her 1-month visit. We actually don’t have to use the itty-bitty diapers anymore! She can fit into the normal newborn ones! And she has grown a double chin and some chubby thighs:) Maybe we’ll be able to fit her into some of her winter clothes before it’s too warm for them after all!!

Here are some pictures from the past few weeks:

Parker!!!

So Parker finally showed up at 7:43 am on 1/1/2009. Not the tax break baby or first baby of the new year we were hoping for, but we’re keeping her nonetheless. It’s been almost a week, so we figured it was time to put some pictures up. These are all an assortment from Grandma and Grandpa Schwartz, Grandma Jessop, and Kristi and myself.

Building the Crib

kristi — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 00:43:49 +0000

The weiner dog races were rained out today, but fortunately Parker’s crib was delivered yesterday so we had something to do with our afternoon anyway:) We had the neighbor, Gunnar, over to help for the beginning and then Jared finished it up. Everything is looking good and really coming together!

Little Updates

Hey everyone:)
Just a few updates with pictures. We keep putting off sending the pictures of all of our new little projects so I figured I’d post everything here. So here are some pictures showing what we’ve been up to lately.
First is our master bedroom that we finally chose a paint color for. The bed doesn’t normally look so awful… Our comforter was getting too hot so we are using an old duvet cover instead.

We also finally agreed on a couch for the living room. Included in those pictures are some of the pets in their favorite new spot now that the window is all opened up for them. The couches aren’t exactly in those positions anymore but you can at least see what they look like.

Jared spent yesterday and today (doing an awesome job) painting Parker’s room so here is what that looks like. Thank you to everyone who has started sending gifts!!

Also, I’ll throw one in of Jared so you can all see that he still exists:)

Maybe our next project can be to find things to decorate all of our walls…

Side-view update

kristi — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 00:44:37 +0000

Took a couple more pictures tonight. Tomorrow I will be 24 weeks. Starting to look more and more pregnant:) Sorry I look so horrible and unhappy in the pictures! They are just bad shots I guess:(

Today we FINALLY found a couch we really agree on and were able to buy it. It’s a sleeper sofa so there will still be room for visitors to sleep here even tho we are giving up one of our guest rooms for Parker. So everyone should come visit!

Side view pictures

Here are some side views of my belly over the weeks. It shows me at 7 weeks, 17 weeks, and 21 weeks. The most recent one at 21 weeks is 2 weeks old already so I’ve grown a bit more. Now that we have figured out our new camera we should be able to get more pictures up when we take them:)

It’s a girl!!

Well we had our BIG ultrasound on Tuesday, July 15th. I am only 16 weeks along, but they were able to check all the major things they needed to check. So her brain is measuring just right and looks great, her heart looks great, her upper lip looks great, her kidneys and bladder look great, her hands and feet look great…. So we have a healthy baby!! No more ultrasounds now unless we need one for some reason, or if the midwives are nice and let us take another peak for fun at 28 weeks. She was also able to tell Jared that it’s a GIRL which completely shocked me when he told me later (I wanted Jared to be the one to tell me and not the doctors or nurses so I had them keep it a secret from me while we were there and he told me once we were home) because I have been expecting a boy all along. Her name will be Parker:) Most likely, Parker Rae. Jared is very excited to have his little princess and I am very excited for a little baby girl. It’ll take a little time to get used to the idea that I will one day have a teenage girl on my hands….:) So here are the pictures we came home with. There are a few that the nurse gave us doubles of, but we just threw them all in anyway. She’s looking like a real baby now!! She’s measuring about 9 centimeters which is good for her “age”. In some you can see her sucking her thumb, or possibly picking her nose as the nurse suggested. Then she kept lounging back and relaxing and not showing us if she was a girl or boy at first and so there are one or two of her with her arm bent and her hand behind her head as if she’s relaxing back. The last few are basically impossible to make out, but the really blurry ones seem to have a face on the right side looking off to the right (creepy!) and the last one is the one where she says it’s a girl.
Everything is going great with us and now that I’m in my 2nd trimester I’m not feeling any of the sickness anymore. I’m starting to show a little bit, but still not obvious to anyone who doesn’t know me. Pants are getting pretty tight:)

We’ll keep everyone updated whenever we get more news!!

More ultrasound stuff!

kristi — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 21:58:29 +0000

We went back to the doctor yesterday (Wednesday, June 11th) for a test to see how at risk we are for Down Syndrome and other chromosome abnormalities. So that meant ANOTHER ULTRASOUND. This was an extra long one because in order to do the measuring she needed to do, the baby had to have its neck in the right position. Since it was curled up so much, she had to keep poking it to wake it up. Then it’d go crazy and kick and throw its arms around and everything. Never really got into the right position, though… Everything looks fine, fortunately, and it was amazing to see how fast the baby is growing and is actually looking like a BABY instead of a nut. So here are a few pictures from yesterday’s visit.

Also, this was the test that the doctor wanted us to have before he felt comfortable with us telling everyone the news. So it’s not a secret anymore! We are officially publicly pregnant:)
