We're getting there! Tomorrow we'll be at the 3 week countdown! I went to the doctor on Tuesday and had what will hopefully be my last ultrasound. The doctor estimated that the baby is about 5 lb., 11 oz. Supposedly during the last month, the baby should gain 1/2 pound a week - I've been trending at 2 lbs. each week, so hopefully some of that is the baby! Boy can I tell too. By the end of the day, my legs, ankles, and feet are so swollen! Danny has been great and has been taking care of a lot around the house so I can rest. We also went to our last "baby prep" class last night...I think we're more confused about car seats now than we were before we went! We plan on installing the car seat and then stopping by the fire dept. to make sure we did it correctly! We also had our tour at the hospital last Saturday and my hospital bag is about half packed! Last night it was crazy to think that the next time we'll be at St. Ann's Hospital, we'll be parents!

Pictures of the baby's room...a work in progress! Love it though! Danny's done a great job! Also, we couldn't have done it without all the help we received from our friends and family. Danny's mom helped paint; my dad helped with the chair rail; my mom supplied the bedding; my mom's friend, Kim, hemmed our curtains for the closet; and Danny's grandma made the quilt!

Look at the adorable quilt Danny's grandma made for future Baby Schuerman! We are totally impressed with what she was able to do...all from a simple e-mail of a picture of the baby's bedding. We're so lucky!


The detailed stitching even has dragon flies in it!

Danny's mom and sister threw our 3rd and final shower this past weekend. Everything was great! I had a lot of fun visiting with his family and some friends that live in Hamilton. The food was delicious too! Danny's aunt made the cake...a pea in a pod!

They even got us an edible arrangement!

I think Scarlet will be just fine with our baby when he/she arrives! His niece thought she was a horse :)

It's easy to get help opening gifts!

My co-workers totally surprised me with a baby shower today! We were unusally busy and I was completely oblivious. I was told that our boss and his wife had a meeting with some people and would be in the kitchen for a while, so I knew not to interrupt. We also had leftover lasagna from the day before, so Peggy said she had heated it up for lunch. We went to go into the kitchen & then I saw Danny! Sara had been in contact with him without me knowing so that he could be there! There were Buckeye decorations everywhere. Sara even made a Buckeye diaper cake and Peggy made candles out of Buckeye baby bottles! Nancy made homemade Buckeyes too! Our baby is definitely going to be an Ohio State fan! We got a lot of awesome gifts...I'm so lucky to work with such a great group of people!

32 weeks!

Here are some pictures from yesterday's shower!

See, it isn't that difficult to find gender neutral stuff! :)

The adorable favors with herbs to plant!

This cake was so good...one tier had lemon cake and the other had carrot cake!

Erica did such a good job on the diaper cake! You wouldn't believe how many gifts she was able to stuff in there. I love her!

My mom's BFF Dawn brought one too! :)

Gifts

I had help from Danny's nieces opening gifts! I apparently didn't cooperate and give Erica a long enough time to take pictures of each present, so here are a few...

Danny's grandma is so crafty! This bouquet is made of wash cloths, onesies, and hats!

Gwen was able to make it from Indianapolis! I didn't bug anyone to take pictures while they were there, so this is all I got!
