Pink or Blue???

Well, tomorrow (Wed.) is the day we go to have another ultrasound. We didn't know until last week at our regular check-up that we can find out the sex at this appt. David has his heart set on knowing along with many of our friends and co-workers, but I have been going back and forth on it. However, we will find out the sex, if the little one is cooperative. I've been feeling much better and sadly am back to my normal eating habits, no will power! I'm gaining weight and not enjoying outgrowing my pants. It's not easy to find pants to fit this lower half, especially knowing that it's going to keep growing. Except for the weight gain, absentmindedness, and feeling tired all the time, I don't really feel pregnant. It was nice to listen to the heartbeat last week.
Well, we missed the really short time frame when Allegiant had $29 flights! I'm still looking at coming home Memorial Day weekend, Thursday-Sunday. I will decide by this weekend, and let you all know. Anything going on that weekend or is there a chance that I might see some of you if I do make it?
Also...David's mom, Rose, is anxious to start planning a baby shower. We understand the travel costs and time off, but if any of you are thinking about it when would work for you? You know how indecisive I am, and I don't really know what time to pick. I think it's sort of narrowed down to mid-Julyish or early to mid-Augustish. Maybe Labor Day weekend??? I really don't know! We will take visitors whenver! You are always welcome here! Let me know if you're thinking about it and what would work for you.
So, pink Dodgers outfit or blue Dodgers outfit? What's it going to be?
Hugs and Kisses to you all! Miss you lots!
Love,
Jill

New Addition at Kriz Fam Zoo?!

Can't wait to see the new addition at the farm. Dad Kriz told Ter Bear they added on a shower and bedroom! How sweet is that?!

I have a feeling I might now how that happened in such a short time frame.

Miss you all and can't wait to see everyone this weekend.

Love,

Tammy

Surprise!

Happy Easter!

Yes it is I, Vegasdave! Back with another rare but well worth the wait post, that will almost certainly leave you all wanting more. LOL

Anyway, I have been reading all of your posts with Jill, and everytime I do, I get a feeling that is very much like home sickness. Even though I am not from SD, I miss being there with everyone. I am sure we will be making another trip soon. At least I hope.
So, the months are going by so quickly and the baby will be here before we know it. I am growing more and more nervous and I find myself watching everything Jill does. Like she can't take care of herself right? I feel like I need to make sure she is ok all of the time. I must be annoying the hell out of her. LOL. I keep wondering if this is normal. Any of you Kriz family dads ever experience this? It's not just that either. I also find myself worrying about the most ridiculous things. Like, how old will I be when our child is this age or that age? Will I still be able to do certain things, or will I be hindered by some new age induced limitation? I know....ridiculous right? Also, In the beginning I was totally for having a boy. Now, I don't really care what sex the baby is, as long as he or she is a Dodger, Laker, and 49er fan. (no comment from the sports knowledge challenged. you know who you are...Kevin, Jason) I seriously am concerned with the sports thing. I will have to give our child the boot at an early age if the sports rules are not followed to the tee in our house. Anyone who harbors them will be considered a traitor and dealt with accordingly........I seriously don't know where that came from.
So, we were able to take the baby to his or her first ballpark last week. We went to San Diego to see the Dodgers play the Padres at Petco Park! Wow! What a place! Even though the Dodgers lost, it was an experience to remember. Even Jill really enjoyed herself. My luck is the baby will become a Padre fan now. Oh well, I didn't really mean what I said before...or did I? So am I alone in this concern as I await our childs birth? I tend to think there has to be some dads out there that know what I mean. If not, oh well...I guess I am a pioneer! Thats a positive spin on it at least right?
Well, thats all for now. Stay tuned for more tales of wonderment, curiosity and frustration. Afterall, only 5 months to go!

Easter Fun!

Hi Everyone!

I hope everyone had a great day. I think the best part of my day was asking Isabella what she learned in church today on the drive home. She said, "God is alive today! He got dead. His arms were spread like this, and the people didn't like him. Then he was alive." It made me a pretty proud momma.

Anyway, it was also very fun watching the girls find their Easter baskets, and all of the contents inside. Adelyn cried, Isabella was bursting with excitement and Alexandra just wanted the candy. She even started to eat a chocolate egg with the foil and everything.

Anyway, even though I didn't get to spend the day with all of you. It was all in all a great day. Miss everyone a ton!

Love, Jeannie

PS. I think the Easter bunny making a late appearance at the farm is a grand idea. Isabella wanted to hunt eggs outside in a bad way today, but it was a little chilly out.

FYI: I couldn't get many pics of them all together. This is the best there is.

Happy Easter

Hello everyone. Just a quick note to wish you a Happy Easter from all of us. Hope the Bunny visits all your homes!

Miss you all very much!

Are you happy?

Just thought I should share this article......in case anyone living in any of the states near the bottom of the list are looking for a happier location. :-) Smile!

Book "The Shack"

Mom Kriz...I finished the book, boy do I look at life differently. After you were here and talked about this book, a friend of mine and I purchased it to read. I can't say enough about it, except that everyone should take the time to read this book. It would have been fun to experience a book club to discuss it further and obtain others views on it as you did. It's funny how narrow minded we have become and it really explores so many questions that I have had. My friend Linda, said it was meant for her to read after I told her of the discussion you and I had, she said I was like the 5th person who had told her about it. God works in mysterious ways. Thanks for sharing. I am going to read it again.

Love,

Tammy

Check it out Kriz Family...it's worth the read!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!!!!!

Well - We got a couple of inches of snow last night. It is now white again around here. Wondering how the rest of the family came out of the Blizzard. Seems to be a reoccurring theme the last several weekends. Hope everyone is doing good.
