What's in a name?

Baby Payce, Payce Koehn Taylor!
Our little one is no longer the unnamed baby. We have decided that Payce suits him just fine. After reading through the name book, girls and boys names, we narrowed it down to a few. Payce was a name we liked from the begining but wanted to make sure it stuck with us. We like that it is original and the spelling is a little different but not weird. It goes well with Taylor and, well, we like it! Koehn is Zach's middle name and his mother's maiden name. This is our latest sono pic at 31/3. He hid behind his right fist the entire time. I love that his cheeks look chubby, takes after his mama! I think I see his daddy's nose! His approximate weight is 4lbs4oz and he sits in the 47th percentile for size. So far every thing is going well.
One of our favorite things happening at the moment is our nephews and how they are intrigued by the baby in my tummy. Recently we had another nephew born and they now seem to understand that a baby WILL come out of this growing belly eventually (Tyler says by surgery but lets hope not). Anyway, before we part with either 2 year old nephew, they must kiss and hug the baby. It is so sweet and they never refrain from telling people we run into that "Christy has a baby in her tummy!" A few times they have even said that they have a baby in their tummy. Hummm, lets let their mommies explain that one! Our family continues to grow and we are not stopping this year with the birth of Payce. My older brother and his wife just announced that their son Koda will have a baby brother or sister in December. Congrats to them! We are hoping for a sweet little girl to break the boy cycle.

I absolutely love that name, it is very original. He is going to be so cute. I saw pictures the other day of Casey's baby and he looks so much like Casey. It seems like there is something in the water or something because there are so many babies right now. Hope you are feeling well.

Love ya,
Mitz
