Just a little update

A few new pics to enjoy.

We take Rosemary to the doctor again tomorrow to see how she's gaining weight. She threw up a little bit earlier in the week, but she seems to be getting better. And she is doing so well otherwise!

After a bath.

Yawn.

Hi!

Happy belated Valentine's Day!

On Valentine's Day, Rosemary turned 2 weeks old. This week she had her first doctor's appointment and got her first immunization. While at the doctor, she decided to spit up everywhere, which led to us being very careful during and after her feedings. She's doing well now though!

Jonathan and I are adjusting to some new sleep habits, but Rosemary has been very kind to us. She will sleep up to 4 1/2 hours a stretch at night already.

Rosemary has started to roll from her back to her side. We'll lay her down on her back and when we check on her later, she's curled up on her side. I think she gets her coordination from her dad.

Enjoy the new pictures below!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Rosemary's favorite sleeping spot...her dad's arms.

Check out those big eyes.

Rosemary Edith Peine

Below are a few pictures from Rosemary's first week. We spent the whole week at the hospital, but we were able to bring home a happy, healthy, and beautiful (I may be a bit biased) baby.


This was taken shortly after Rosemary was born, after she had been cleaned up in the special care nursery. She made her arrival on January 31, 2006, at 3:15 pm, weighing 7 lbs, 6 oz. She was 19 inches long.


Here I am with Joanna, our labor and delivery nurse. She was there with me almost the entire time. Although, since things progressed so quickly, she didn't have much time to go anywhere else! I went in for an office visit at 8:40 am and Rosemary was here just a few hours later.


When Rosemary was born, she spent the first few hours in the special care nursery to make sure that she was going to be alright. Our family was able to get a peek at her through one of the windows. Here are Michelle, Breanna, Matthew, Olivia, Tim, Elizabeth, and Ezekiel looking at their new niece and cousin.


Sleeping soundly.


Rosemary was given this little knitted blanket in the nursery. The nurses doted on her so much.

Grandma and Grandpa Workmaster visited on Saturday. Rosemary loved sitting on Grandma's lap.

Our Gator baby!
Rosemary had her first "professional" pictures taken in her orange and blue.

Getting ready to come home. Finally! We made it back home today, February 7. A week to the day after she was born.

Thank you to everyone who was praying for us. Rosemary is doing well! She remained on the anti-biotics mainly to prevent anything developing once we got home. She's doing so well now and already weighs 7 lbs., 10 oz.

Baby Room Transformation

The baby's room is just about done. We need to hang a few pictures and get a changing pad for the changing table. Otherwise, it's just about set. Becky and Steve helped put together most of the furniture.

Painting (the last room to be painted!)

This room was our storage room for the first few months while we worked on some of the other rooms in the house. The wood floor is still in the middle of the room at this point.

First visit to the house--pre-purchase

When we first looked at the house, this room was pretty boring. And, as you can see, the closet doors were very yellowed so those have been painted white.

Pregnancy Pictures

I am not really a fan of having my picture taken right now, but since I haven't seen some friends and family since we found out we were going to have a baby, I've included a few pictures below of the pregnancy.

19 Weeks--Disney Polynesian Resort

This is shortly after I started having to wear maternity clothes everyday. My feet were swollen in the evenings at this point, but otherwise, I wasn't too puffy and felt great. The second trimester was so nice!

26 Weeks--Stacey & Matt's Wedding

This was the start of the third trimester, almost to the day. That's Jonathan and me in the size 24 dress. (Well, Jonathan isn't in the dress, but before it was altered, he could have fit in it with me). The dress, being a "woman's" size, made my top half look huge.

29 Weeks--26th Birthday Trip at Callaway Gardens

Jonathan surprised me with a very relaxing trip to Pine Mountain, Georgia for my birthday this past year. I was still pretty comfortable getting around.

36 Weeks--Harvest Christian Church Baby Shower

At this point, I was (and still am) very puffy. My shoes, the ones that I bought that were a size and a half bigger than my "normal" size, were starting to pull apart at the seams.
