It's been 20 days...
08/29/08 05:35
Since our last posting, we have been busy with Noah,
his top teeth are coming out and he's been really
needy. We are making his food every weekend for the
week. still loving his apples, "peaches up in here".
Last week he tried lentils for the first time. I made
them the way my mom used to make them for us when we
were little. We processed them and put them through a
sifter to get rid of the skin. He loved it.

Noah said Daddy!!!!
07/11/08 22:52
Noah is 5 monts today in about 18 minutes, and at
short of 5 months he's already made daddy proud more
than once. Today as he was playing with momma, he
said Dadda! We heard it and encouraged to keep saying
and he kept repeating. We were very proud of our boy.
Momma was sad but happy, she was proud of our boy
too.
We are OK
06/05/08 23:32
We are doing OK, after Cindy getting sick, I got sick
then Noah got sick, he's still with belly aches. We
went to the doctor and expect that Noah gets better
by Saturday. We haven't been able to do anything
because of the weather. It keeps raining, no sun yet.
I am curious if there will be any this summer.
Anyway, I hope we do. Hello to every one. Please
write to us to say hello or at least to know that you
are checking our site.

One month checkup
03/14/08 16:39
On Thursday afternoon, we went to Noah's one month
checkup. It was with a new clinic and doctor, but his
doctor is a really nice lady. Noah is doing very
well...as mom and dad figured. We were thinking he
had probably reached 11lbs...in fact he's almost
reached 12lbs! He has gained about a total of 3lbs
since being released from the hospital on February
14. He lost almost a whole pound in the first days
after he was born...but it was only eleven percent so
it wasn't anything startling. He has also grown in
length! He is now 22 inches...he was born 21. Both
mommy and daddy are happy with their big boy! I love
the smiling he is doing when he looks at us.

Not diarrhea!
02/19/08 09:52
We went to the doctor this morning and found out he
doesn't have diarrhea, we were just worried. Dr. said
it is normal, nothing to worry about. They did draw
blood from him again, PKU test. This is required by
the state of Washington, Phenylketonuria, or PKU for
short, is an inherited, genetic condition in which
the body can’t process phenylalanine (Phe), an amino
acid found in many foods. This excerpt comes from the
PKU website
According to the nurse in 30 years she's done that test she has known about only one case that tested positive. This is completely treatable thus the need for the test.

Noah has been having loose stool.
02/18/08 19:25
We noticed loose stool this morning, very little on
the diaper but later he had another light loose
stool. This is the third one that he got and was
alot. We found out that it was some apples that Cindy
ate, they gave baby Noah a mild diarrhea. He's eating
just as well but we are keeping an eye out for
dehydration. We are monitoring his temperature and
have an appointment with the doctor tomorrow morning
at 8 am. He looks like a happy boy and we are making
sure he's OK. We found some articles about this on
www.Babycenter.com and the exact article is here.
Noah smiles and eats as normal.

Back to the hospital.
02/10/08 09:13
We are going to head out to the hospital in about 15
minutes. We are to be there at 10:00. We are having a
quick breakfast and get there. We had a good night
sleep, no need for Cindy to take the sedative in case
she couldn't We will be back with a baby. To enter
the live section of this website text my cell phone

We are back home, no baby yet.
02/10/08 01:24
We are back at home. After monitoring for about 4
hours the midwife sent us home. There are no
contractions so she gave us an appointment for 10:00
AM tomorrow unless anything happens. It is about 15%
of women whose water break before the contractions
start and about 75% of those women have their baby
within 24 hours.
Baby looks healthy, momma looks healthy but tired. We are going to try to sleep tonight and get ready for tomorrow. It may be a long day. I will not be updating this site because I will not have access to it but follow my Twitter here I will be sending updates constantly.

39th and a half Week visit to midwife
02/06/08 22:04
Today we had our visit to the midwife, she told us
everything is great. Baby is in position and with the
head down (where it should be).
Momma's progress:
She's very tired, and still taking baths to soothe the pain on her hips and pelvis. She's hungry as a hippo, and eats all my strawberries. She gained 3 pounds since the last visit. Although she lost 2 last week to stomach problems. She's dialated about 1 cm. but there aren't any signs of baby coming.
Baby's progress:
He keeps moving and kicking momma, he's very active all day and night. He likes for Daddy to read to him every night He's getting big by the minute.
Daddy's progress: He's growing more and more anxious to see his mini me. He keeps dreaming of him and day dreaming even at work. Getting ready for the sleepless nights to come.
After our appointment we went to REI to pick up an order from back in December but found that it had been returned to the distribution center. We got refunded anyway. Cindy got hungry and wanted to go to Cheese Cake Factory. We shared a plate and came home. It's only Wednesday....

Baby Bear is almost here, we are all dreaming about
him. My dad had a dream he got in a fight with his
cousin because he dropped baby bear in the water. Mom
(Alvarado) dreamed that she had a nursery ready for
the baby. Fatima also dreamed him. My sister Yuri
also dreamed a light dimpled baby.
Momma (Cindy) has been feeling contractions and her feet are getting swollen. She has been feeling lots of pressure on her pelvis area, she takes baths every night to lower the pressure. Cindy keeps waking up during the night because of discomfort sleeping. She can hardly move around.
We had an appointment last Thursday, baby is ready and on the right position. He's been very active when I read him stories every night. We got him a few books and we read to him in Spanish and English.

I have decided to maintain only one website, and
still have information and still keep the old
www.oalvarado.com. This
site will redirect to the www.cindyandomar.com.
I will still keep the domain just to make sure I
capture both.
Everything is back to normal... for now.
01/27/08 10:28
So since yesterday's scare we did a lot of work we
finally packed for momma. A little suitcase with the
essentials for the delivery. Toiletries, robe, and a
change of clothes for the way back home. We also
purchased some more clothes and hats for the baby. We
will have a live birthday broadcasted the day of the
birth. (I hope I remember the camera).

Happy New Year!
12/30/07 20:14
Hey everyone!
We hope that you all have a great end of year and that the new one begins just as good. We are just getting ready for our baby to arrive. We have had many blessings this year and 2008 looks just as promising.
Baby Alvarado gave us a bit of a scare this week, we had to spend about 8 hours in the hospital. Cindy got contractions and the midwife asked us to bring her into the maternity hospital. They were monitoring baby and mom and they are both now good. She got medicine and baby Bear still kicking just as strong and stronger every day. He loves oranges, we have had more oranges in the past months than I have had in years.

Feliz Navidad!

October 28th Dinner
10/29/07 18:26
After battling a real bad cold for over two weeks, I
have finally started feeling better. My husband has
taken great care of me and little baby every day. We
went to dinner last night for our six year dating
anniversary. We stayed in the local area to have
dinner because it was Sunday and we both had to work
early on Monday. We ate at Red Lobster and the food
was good, but suprisingly service was a little slow -
other than that we had a great dinner ...all three of
us!
Week 24
10/28/07 18:51
This week, was a better week for Momma, she has been getting better from her cold but still coughing, she's starting to be unconfortable when sleeping because there are only so many ways she can sleep. This week was check up week, the doctor says baby Alvarado is doing really good, they listened to his heart and the Midwife says he's got a healthy one.
This week has been full of parties. First on Thursday Dayton turned 2, he had a cake with the Lopez' side. Baby Alvarado was really happy during the party. He was kicking with the noise of all the kids running around.
Momma's belly keeps groing, she's eating well and also resting alot. We spend time trying to feel little Bear kicking, this is so exciting when he responds to our voices.
We are pregnant
10/15/07 18:48
Well it was about time we set up a page for our
little one.
At this point we are on our 22nd week. It has been pretty special, coming back from California we have had more time to rest and make sure little is received with the most love possible.
We will try to keep the rest of the pregnancy updates, pictures and news. here at least once a week trough the pregnancy and beyond.

Since our wedding
09/08/07 10:38
Hello
Family and Friends!
We hope that everyone is doing well. Since it is hard to keep in touch with each and everyone of you on a more regular basis, we decided to send an email to everyone.
I'm sure a few of you haven't believed my(Cindy) recent weight gain for an early jump start to holiday weight!
Others have probably had
ideas but have not wanted to say anything.
So…we wanted to clear things up and share the
great news! Omar and I wanted to announce
that we are pregnant! 
A few of you may have already known, but we wanted to wait until the end of the first trimester to tell you all. We can't wait to find out if we will have a boy or a girl. An ultrasound in a few weeks will hopefully let us know. We heard the baby's heartbeat a few weeks ago and it sounds real strong. We are due in late February and can't wait for our first baby to come into this world!
As most of you know, we had a website for our wedding. We are currently updating that so that all of you can check it out and see our progress over the upcoming months.
Now we don't have to be shy about our holiday pounds – Daddy included!! Ha ha!
We wish everyone the best and please keep in touch!

New blog start
08/13/07 12:41
We have started a new blog that, is not related to
the wedding. We have started a new website from
scratch. The old website will still be available as a
link within this website but will not be the main
focus of the website. Please keep checking as we will
have more stuff added to this site as we can.
