The last couple of days have been really busy with everything baby, and I'm getting excited! On Monday I had the level 2 ultrasound that I already posted about, and on Tuesday afternoon I had a shower at the school where I work. It was really nice and I got lots of great gifts from my co-workers. Eleanor is going to be one well dressed baby! She got clothes, bibs, pacifiers, blankets, etc. She also got lots of Target gift cards! Yesterday I went to Target and bought her first stroller with all those gift cards. We're actually getting two strollers - one for walks in the neighborhood and one to keep in the car for outings. This one was the jogging stroller for walks.
Yesterday morning I had to get up at 5:00 to go get my 1 hour glucose test and I still managed to get to work on time. Then I had to leave school early - for the second time in 3 days - to go to my doctor for my monthly appointment. She did yet another ultrasound (we're so spoiled!) and we basically just watched Eleanor moving for about 10 minutes. She had her little hands up by her face and her feet kept moving like she was dancing. Very cute. I go back to the doctor again on Tuesday for my first non-stress test. From this point on, I'll be seeing the doctor once a week! I think I have finally convinced Hunter that he doesn't need to come with me for these appointments. He has been with me to EVERY single appointment up until now - which I am so thankful for - but he really doesn't need to sit there while they monitor Eleanor's heartbeat for 20 minutes.
On my way home from the doctor I bought the stroller, and last night I put it together. It's sitting in the living room along with all of the baby shower gifts that I still haven't put away. We are getting so excited - I can't believe she'll be here in just over 9 weeks!

Phew reading your post I could feel just how excited you are! I am so happy for you! The clock will be ticking and before you know she'll be in your arms. :)
9 weeks! Wow, you are almost there! I'm so glad that you have been able to let go and let yourself get excited. Eleanor will be here before you know it!
