All's Well

So another doctor's visit has come and gone. Baby's heartbeat sounded good.
Now Aaron and I need to decide on a pediatrician. The doctor helpfully gave us a list of them in the area - let me tell you there's a lot of them. But I've at least narrowed them down by those who are actually close to us. I think I'll also ask our friends who have children already who they use and if they like them.
Baby's arrival is getting nearer - I'm to start going in every two weeks now. I'm so excited!

Baby Showers

Aaron and I spent time last week in Ames and Elgin so our families could throw baby showers. I had so much fun at them and we recieved lots of great gifts for baby! Thank you so much everyone!

Diaper cake my mom made decorated with spoons, socks, bibs, pacifiers, and a cute frog.

And for all you ISU fans out there, baby Rud will be sporting this cute Iowa State outfit (3-6 months) that my parents got for him/her this spring.

Glucose Test

So this morning I had my glucose test done. I must say I didn't think the drink was too bad, although there was a bit of an aftertaste I could have done without. Other than taking a long time (you have to wait an hour after drinking it before they take your blood) things went well. Baby's heartbeat sounded good and the doc said everything was looking fine. We'll be going in more often from now on - we're going in 3 weeks and then every 2 weeks after that. The end is nearing! I can't wait for baby to arrive and to meet him or her!
