Almost 31 weeks, time is flying by

With just over nine weeks to go, we are so close to meeting our baby girl!  Of course to Emma, nine weeks still seems like a very very long time....  Everything is going great with the pregnancy, Emma is feeling good other then feeling sleepy alot.  It has gotten harder and harder to get a good nights sleep, Payton is kicking and moving around like crazy.  Its a great feeling to have, but at three in the morning can sometimes keep you wide awake :)  On Monday night at our child birth prep class Jake got to experience the Empathy Belly.  Our instructor strapped it on and then we had him do different things that get more and more difficult with a big belly, switching sides when you're sleeping, tying shoes, picking things up ect.  Jake was a good sport and it was all worth it for the pictures!  The nursery is almost complete, we got our chair/glider and put up the curtains last weekend.  We will post some finished pictures hopefully in the coming weeks.  So glad today is Friday, hope everyone has a great weekend!!

We look about the same size :)

3rd Trimester

We made it to the third trimester and are luckily still feeling great!!  We went to the Doctor yesterday for a sono and regular checkup.  Everything checked out fabulously and she is growing right on track.  She weighs around 2 1b 13 oz and is around 14 inches long!  We have officially decided on a name for our baby girl and decided to go ahead and share it with everyone, Payton Belle Benezette.  Her middle name is a family name we got from Emma's late grandmother on her mother's side.  Just over 11 weeks to go until we get to meet our little Payton, we cant wait!!
