Almost 23 weeks, Baby Benezette is growing!

We have almost hit the 23 week mark!  Everything is going great with our Baby girl, and hopefully Emma is finally over this awful case of Kidney stones.  We are guessing our Baby will have a huge sweet tooth just like her mama, because Emma is craving everything and anything sweet.  We never seem to have a shortage of candy and cookies in our house lately :) We started painting all the trim in the nursery this weekend and hopefully will get started on the walls over the next week or two.  We ordered her crib and rocker last weekend from Buy Buy Baby, every little thing we do for her makes us realize how real this is and that in around four months she will be here!!   We can't wait, and know the time is going to fly by fast.  We are posting a picture of Emma at almost 23 weeks, she will hit that mark on Tuesday.  There is also a before picture of our nursery, and hopefully we will make alot of progress over the next month or two.  We cant wait to start getting her room all put together!!

Halfway there!

We hit our twenty week mark yesterday and are so excited that we have made it this far and have a healthy baby on the way.  We are working on narrowing down Emma's list of names but are planning on keeping that quiet until the day baby Benezette comes into the world!  Not too much to update everyone on, Jake is busy putting in our kitchen backsplash and window trim and then our kitchen is finally 100% complete.  Next on our list in the nursery, we will post a completed kitchen picture soon and updates as the nursery comes together.  Aunt Brooke and cousin Ella came over this past weekend and brought our baby some adorable clothes and some cute little boots!  We are posting a twenty week belly pic, of course it seems to be growing like crazy now. 

 20 weeks!

It's a Girl!!!

Hi everyone!

We are starting this family blog and hoping it will be a good tool to communicate all the news and updates about our baby and everyday life.  We went to the Doctor yesterday for a sonogram and check up, I am just over 19 weeks today.  They are about 90% sure that we are having a girl, so we are just going to go with that and assume we have a baby girl on the way!!!  We are so excited for this news and so happy that our baby is healthy and growing well!  We have another sono scheduled in eight weeks and will be able to confirm the sex then.  So far Emma is feeling great and her belly seems to grow overnight.  We are going to include a prego pic and a sono pic from our Dr.s visit yesterday, our baby has such a cute and perfect profile!  Now that our major kitchen remodel is almost totally complete we can focus on getting the nursery together.  Lots to do, painting, new windows and picking out furniture and accessories.  We will keep you posted on the progess as we move along.
