I have no idea how long it has been since Mom last posted, but I saw a post labeled big girl bed, so it has been a while. New Year's was yesterday, and we have started the year strong. My brothers and I currently have around 125 stuffed animals, each with its own name and 'family'. The current favorites are Chester and Rocket the dogs, and DeDe the TC bear. The new recruits are Matthew the alligator, Douglas the shark, and Ferdie the black bear. Our family just went on a huge limo-bus, to see lights, and it was AMAZING!!!!👍 </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9x5BLT1UquTMSUiX5nAH8dvVgjeNI0dTXw2R_6irg8Xi6wSN9exIEgh3RoRkIauun0hh2k-gZMqiFSWhSDMABpybRHXG1illCJE33xcgSoC9nnEsfowKH5zs8S14t4I8Ipdwyu2RRiS_9aGA7i7hGa69fB9C9atjCfcZEXT1i-ZklIY0PDE1VnPvXvFw/s5205/Kami%20Shaw%20Photography%20-%20Coeur%20d%2527Alene%20Idaho-9969.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3470" data-original-width="5205" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9x5BLT1UquTMSUiX5nAH8dvVgjeNI0dTXw2R_6irg8Xi6wSN9exIEgh3RoRkIauun0hh2k-gZMqiFSWhSDMABpybRHXG1illCJE33xcgSoC9nnEsfowKH5zs8S14t4I8Ipdwyu2RRiS_9aGA7i7hGa69fB9C9atjCfcZEXT1i-ZklIY0PDE1VnPvXvFw/s320/Kami%20Shaw%20Photography%20-%20Coeur%20d%2527Alene%20Idaho-9969.jpg" width="320" /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #0000ee;"><u><br /></u></span></div>The first photo was from around 5 years ago, (Mom has, like, no photos on her computer.)<p></p><p>Since then, Rory has gotten stiches above his eye from a stray hockey stick in our basement, and I have gotten glasses.

Hannah is getting so BIG - we're talking a lot about her being a BIG SISTER and such a BIG HELPER these days. Just 2 more days until her brother joins us - and I don't think she knows what she's in for!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She's learning every day and growing by leaps and bounds. Each day comes new animal recognition (her current favorite is finding snakes and making hissing noises) and putting words together. Her hair is getting longer and we work to put in "pretty pretties" each morning, though they are seldom left in her hair at the end of the day. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She is still totally obsessed with books and we read at least 5 in a row before she'll move on to something else. She has just started to play with Play-Doh, crayons and even watercolors. Mommy is excited to have a little crafter to join her. (Although the left-handedness has me concerned about teaching knitting and sewing....)</div>

Our next update (and there will be one in less than 4 months {yikes!}) will likely be with news of Baby Brother!</div>

And I've got some good excuses. And some big things going on. But I'll try to catch up now that we're settled into our new house.<br />
<br />
So there's that: We moved to Sioux Falls, SD. It still doesn't feel quite real, or HOME, but we are very much liking our new neighborhood and especially our new house. The change in license plates hit me harder than I thought it would but we are adjusting all the same.<br />
<br />
Here are some photos of the house - mostly before the furniture got delivered. I'll try to take some pretty photos of the furnished and decorated house and get those up sometime in the next few weeks. <br />

Not only is this the end of an era, but it's also the end of my living in Milwaukee. I have really enjoyed living in Milwaukee and think it is truly jewel of the Midwest. It has some really lovely places, amazing restaurants, fun attractions and great people! I took a boat ride with some co-residents to say goodbye to the city.</div>

I joked about it, but it really is a place where miracles happen everyday. This is the ambulance bay (where I walked in for the past 3 years). I did work in nearly every hospital in the city, but most of my education happened at Froedtert. Many thanks to the thousands of co-residents, attendings and especially THE PATIENTS that have contributed to my education. </div>

Bry at the WWII Memorial by Corrigedor - we visited this while in the <a href="http://polzinblog.blogspot.com/2010/02/corrigedor-island.html" target="_blank">Philippines</a> and have some great memories of it.<br />
<br />
We were invited to Abi's Cousin Morgan's wedding in DC on June 22, 2013. She married a nice Marine, Scott in a beautiful wedding. Of course, DC's not a bad place for a vacation either so we had lots of fun sight seeing and taking Hannah to some fun places. (Of note, DC is an ideal location for a 1 year old who just discovered climbing stairs!)</div>

The first day Abi and Hannah just took a nap and saw some family. On Friday we went into DC (LOVED the Metro and the cheap foldable stroller we bought for this trip) and did a walking tour of the monuments and memorials. It was a gorgeous day and we had a lot of fun just as a family. Friday night we had more family time at the rehearsal dinner too. </div>

The wedding was lovely - full Military style with a Marine ceremony of the swords outside the church. The location of the reception was perfect for a Marine pilot too - the historic terminal of Ronald Reagan Airport. It was a lovely reception and we had a blast. We ended the night being "those parents" taking their baby home at midnight on the Metro. Abi flew home on Sunday (for work) and Bry and Hannah stayed for a day at Arlington and another site-seeing trip to the city and the White House. They road-tripped back home with Grandpa and Grandma Schneider - just in time for Abi's graduation from Residency.</div>

This is another special holiday hat I cooked up for the niece and nephew. I think he's kinda cute! I have never typed up a "pattern" before but I thought this one deserves to be repeated. I have knit this self-made pattern twice myself but have never had anyone try to replicate it. Let me know your thoughts!<br />
<br />
Hat:<br />
Basic baby hat in worsted weight yarn. I used Debbie Stoller's Bamboo Ewe in brown. I used the basic pattern out of <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/sources/itty-bitty-hats" target="_blank">Susan B. Anderson's </a><i><a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/sources/itty-bitty-hats" target="_blank">Itty Bitty Hats</a>.</i><br />

<br />
Stuff the feathers with poly-fil and whipstitch in place around the crown. <br />
<br />
On the second one I made I found it easier to "pile" the feathers on the top of the crown so that baby could fit in the carseat. (I also didn't have enough red yarn to make the waddle for this one.)<br />

Happy Birthday to our not-so-tiny, not-so-quiet, almost walking all over the place Hannah Mae! (you may be thinking, wait, isn't she almost 13 months old now? and you would be correct, but we haven't been as up to date on this blog for a bit....)<br />

Hannah has such a personality now. She is sassy and independent. She is friendly with other people and she LOVES animals. She has quite the appetite (see above) and will eat Teddy Grahams all day. (so will her dad!). She's not cuddly, and I miss the baby cuddles and I hate it when she pulls away (already!) when I'm trying to kiss her. She is smart though, wicked smart, and we are in for some trouble. At times she looks just like her Grandpa Schneider, at others just like her cousin, Larken. She is a good traveler and is getting set for a trip to her 9-12th states. </div>

10 Months have just flown by! We are enjoying Hannah's new independence - she's on the verge of crawling and insisting on standing/walking whenever possible. She's eating loads of new foods (including ice cream and chocolate chip cookies!) and making a bigger mess than ever. She's definitely more vocal now too. In fact, sometimes too vocal.....<br />

I wanted to buy some cute fabric to make bowties for a friend. So I went to <a href="http://www.patchedworks.com/" target="_blank">Patched Works</a> in Elm Grove. And that was my first mistake.<br />

My friend is due with a baby boy in 5 weeks. She's a doctor, and her
husband is a chemist. So I asked if they had any dorky science
fabric..... look at this quirky and cute Michael Miller print!</div>

So I bought a yard of this and a yard of a coordinating print. I bought blue minky for the back. Since the print was so perfect I decided not to cut it and just to make a simple quilt. I used 2 inch tape to mark out my lines and made up my own pattern that just happened to work out perfectly - I got lucky!<br />

There was a little puckering of the minky, but all in all it turned out ok. I even did my first HAND SEWN BINDING - which was a big deal and did turn out pretty nice (I need to work on the corners though.) Again, I followed the <a href="http://www.ohfransson.com/" target="_blank">Oh Fransson</a> tutorials and was pretty happy with the result. The Mother-to-Be also was quite pleased with it.<br />
<br />
I liked this simple quilt. 1 yard of fabric was a perfect baby-sized blanket. I did it all in about 3 days and would do it again. I do need to buy some more 2 inch tape before I do another quilt, but it really helps and is super easy.</div>

We took a trip to Minnesota to see friends and family this past weekend. While there we had a nice stay in Minneapolis at <a href="http://www.thedepotminneapolis.com/water-park.php" target="_blank">The Depot</a> where there is a water park. Hannah loves her baths, so we thought she might like the pool....and we were right! She loved it! She was fearless and tried floating, kicking and splashing. Cousins Liza and Larken were less than thrilled with the noise, splashing and activity - but Hannah enjoyed it all.<br />
<br />
We had a lovely visit with family and lots of fun.<br />
<br />
We have now signed Hannah up for swim lessons starting April 15th - can't wait!<br />

We've just returned from a trip to Nevada. We stayed with some terrific friends, Kristin and Andy, who opened their house and casita to us. They went so far as to borrow baby items for Hannah which she thoroughly enjoyed. She also discovered cats - Keno and Sammy were very entertaining, although I'm not sure that they felt the same about Hannah.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We took a day trip to California and went to Death Valley National Park. Hannah got her first stamp in her National Parks Passport. Leave it to us to get to the hottest, driest, lowest place in the US only to find it 50 degrees and raining! We need to visit it in the summer to get the full effect as it was kind of lost on us.</div>

This little girl is definitely her daddy's buddy. She likes him too - when he walks in she just lights up and usually gives a giggle or two. She smiles ear to ear when he pays attention to her. She is starting to show her daddy's traits as well - she's got dark brown hair, brown eyes - so far no dimples though. </div>

Occasionally she is very quiet and will occupy herself for hours on end. The rest of the time.... this is one noisy little girl.</div>

She loves playing with her toes and socks - best toys ever!</div>

This week we are heading to Michigan to celebrate Abby and Mike's Wedding on Saturday. This will be Hannah's 3rd trip to Michigan in 5 months. In fact, we'll turn 5 months this Thursday! Where has the time gone? I won't blame it on the baby.<br />
<br />
This week we will also likely be deciding where I will be taking a job. More on that once an actual decision has been made.</div>

Hannah turned 3 months old - holy cow!<br />
<br />
We have been enjoying her smiles lately - although we have to work for them quite a bit! She is definitely becoming more social now. She still loves being held and cuddling - perfect for most people who meet her. In addition she is quite active now and loves to kick, play with toys and try to stand. Her head swivels around at every sight and sound and she really tries to be involved with conversations.<br />
<br />
She remains quite laid back and easy-going. Except when she's really hungry and then we all hear about it. Strange how weird it is to hear her cry when she barely cried for the first 8 weeks of her life! She is enjoying going to daycare and I'm told she does pretty well when she's away from home.<br />

Maternity leave is officially over.<br />
<br />
I think we're all sad about this. It means that Hannah is getting older - we've lost our little 3 lb wonder and struggle to carry around a 9 lb behemoth. She has also been much more alert and awake - looking at toys, occasionally smiling, grabbing things put near her and paying attention when we read her stories. This part is fun. The crabby-after-8-pm part is not as fun, but this is followed by the sleeping-for-up-to-5-hours part which Abi thinks is fun.<br />
<br />
It also means that Abi is back to work. Funny how you forget so much when all you know is bottles, diapers, pumping and nursing! The first few days were a little rough. This month I'm at a new hospital so not only do I have to re-learn everything but I have a new computer system, new people, new nurses.....it's been an adjustment. As usual I'm settling in now, about 1/2 way through the month. This week is my longest work week yet but I've got a light at the end of the tunnel with a fun 3 day weekend coming up.<br />

With all the grunting coming from the nursery, this post may be a bit short. She's a lot more vocal now that she's 2 months old. It's so cliche, but so true - where did the time go??!!<br />
<br />
We are so enjoying our Little Bear. She is much more alert now, wide awake for a few hours at a time. We have also (fingers crossed!) established a bedtime which has worked beautifully for the past 3 nights in a row - allowing us a wonderful stretch of 5 hours of sleep!<br />
<br />
She had her 2 month appointment last week. Her current "stats" are:<br />
Wt: 8 lbs 11 oz<br />
Ht: 20.5 inches<br />
Head: 35 cm<br />
<br />
She got her shots and did pretty well with them. She got her first dose of Tylenol in case of discomfort but we didn't notice anything else.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
To recap her life experiences - she has:</h3>
<span style="font-size: large;">- Been to 5 states (WI, IL, IN, MI, MN)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- 2 weddings</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- 1 funeral</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Grown 4 inches and gained 4 pounds</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Eaten about a billion bottles of milk (my stats may not be quite accurate here)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Started to hold her head up</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Started to actually cry</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Met the vast majority of both sides of her large family (and more to come in the next few weeks)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Been to 10 softball games</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Been to 5 restaurants (although she hasn't ordered anything)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Been to a bar (!)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Had a babysitter who wasn't family</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- MAYBE smiled this morning - it happened twice and I was so excited that it could be a "real" smile, we will have to see if it continues!</span><br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
We (I) had a bit of a phobia when it came to decorating the nursery. Following our losses, I was nervous about anything representing the pregnancy to be so permanent in our house. We also have only 2 bedrooms, and we host a lot of guests, so the room had to also serve as a guest room. Therefore we (I) didn't want anything too "babyish" or "girly". The room we ended up with is (I think) none of those things, and I'm pretty pleased with it overall.</div>

This is the before picture. Bry finding out the baby's gender. The bed was arranged in the middle with the cedar chest at foot of the bed. The bedding is from <a href="http://www.ikea.com/">Ikea</a> - can't find the name of the pattern for the duvet anymore.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because we live in an apartment we weren't able to paint at all, which I think made us be a little more creative in including colors. </div>

This is the after photo when I finally got around to taking a few photos. Now I'll go into some details about the items in the room. Note that the only NEW furniture is the CRIB and the CHAIR. (The bookshelf and table just weren't visible in the before photo.)</div>

1. CRIB</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Made by our Brother-in-Law, Brandon Filzen of <span style="font-size: x-large;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><a href="http://www.bizapedia.com/mn/FILZEN-CUSTOM-HARDWOODS-LLC.html" target="_blank">Filzen Custom Hardwoods, LLC</a>. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The beautiful craftsmanship is evident in every part of this lovely crib. At some point I hope to do a post on the crib building process - Brandon has given me all the photos. He did such a lovely job - basically I found a crib that I liked, gave him a photo and he did the rest. I will point out that the crib is solid Black Walnut and my favorite feature is the drawer storage underneath the crib. It is a convertible crib as well to grow with Hannah.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The giraffe is a <a href="http://susanbanderson.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Susan B. Anderson</a> pattern that I knitted (and finished!) before Hannah was born.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This bookshelf has a TON of stuff on it which I had been accumulating before Hannah was born. The books were largely gifts. I will talk about a few items:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
OWL - purchased from Burlington Coat Factory for $12</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
TRUCK BANK - Bry's from when he was a little boy - I LOVE that this is in Hannah's room. The "belly" is see through so you can see the money, but have to undo screws in order to get it out. Just love this piece.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ELEPHANT BANK - purchased from Urban Outfitters for $12. Loved the color, loved the shape. There is an elephant theme in Hannah's room (loosely). </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
-Table was bought off of Craigslist for <$10. Originally it is from Ikea. The changing pad was bought at a store that went out of business. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-Rug: another Urban Outfitters
purchase. I saw another nursery with the same rug on Pinterest and went
straight to Urban Outfitters to buy it. It is a canvas like rug, not
soft and squishy but that's ok because the carpet in her room is in
pretty good condition.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-Elephant Wall Hooks: purchased from Etsy.com <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/Theshabbyshak" target="_blank">The Shabby Shak</a>. I see now that she has some huge mounted elephant heads - now I need the will power to not buy them........</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
-I also have a lot of needle point in the room. Some of it is very special- made by my mother. The wall hanging over the crib was made by Bry's Grandma Swenson and was in his room as a baby. LOVE that too. This piece was a sampler I found at a thrift store for < $1. I like the vintage stitching in the modern frame.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This was my dream chair from when I started nannying. A sort of "push present" to myself. We ended up buying it in Dallas, TX so we could actually sit in the chairs before buying them. It is actually a light grey color and we really like it.</div>

Hannah is getting bigger everyday. She's still a very easy baby and we're still quite in love with her. Now I'll just post some pictures of her - thanks to iPhones, I believe the darling gets her photos taken every day. By the end of this week I hope to have some crafty things to post - I'll MAKE myself post once a week this month.<br />

May 16th - 34 weeks 1 day - on the way to the hospital!<br />
<br />
See? No bare bellies anywhere! I actually think I look about the same size in the last few pictures - I definitely never reached the "popping" point. My belly button got stretched out but stayed an "innie" the whole time. <br />
<br />
Overall I really enjoyed the pregnancy. The first trimester was nerve-wracking and stomach churning. I lost 7 lbs during the first few weeks! The second trimester was a blast - I finally LOOKED pregnant and felt great. I only had a few weeks in the third trimester which weren't too uncomfortable. The most significant thing was that I developed <a href="http://www.preeclampsia.org/">pre-eclampsia</a> during the last week or so. This meant that I was on bedrest for 2 days until they determined it was too dangerous to continue the pregnancy and Hannah needed to come out early. The last 2 days of the pregnancy were scary enough to balance out the rest of the "easy" parts.</div>
