Disney on Ice and 31 week checkup

This past weekend my mom and I took Payton to Disney on Ice!  Payton really enjoyed seeing all of the characters and mom and I enjoyed the ice skating and seeing Payton having so much fun!  Payton even got to try cotton candy for the first time!  Then we spent the rest of the day with mom running lots of errands and doing some shopping.  We even met daddy for lunch and stopped for ice cream!  Then on Sunday I had some grocery shopping to do so Payton and Grandma colored easter eggs so I could get my errands done a little quicker!  It is getting more difficult to lift Payton up and in the shopping cart these days, so it is sometimes less exhausting to just go by myself!

I had my 31 week checkup yesterday and everything was great.  My blood pressure was back to normal, so it must have just been a fluke last time.  It was a very uneventful appointment and my doctor said that boring is good!!  We are taking Payton to a sibling preparation class next week which should be interesting!  We get to go on a kid oriented tour of the birthing center as well so that way when he comes to see mom at the hospital he is a little more prepared and hopefully he won't be scared.

I do think that baby boy #2 is going to be a wonderful soccer player though!  I have been getting some huge kicks!  Some are quite painful!  He must sleep most of the day and then by midafternoon he is very active and usually is well into the night!  When Payton sees my belly move, which it does often, he says it is his brother trying to get out!  He is getting very concerned that he wants to come out now.  I told him soon, very soon!
