Okay, well today I am 37 weeks and 5 days! YAY :) I guess I will start by talking about my baby shower on the 25th of April. It was amazing! I couldn't ask for anything more (well it was HOT... 92 degrees that day)! The place, invitations, food were all amazing! Ella got way more than I ever expected and it was fun washing all her new clothes! I have attached some pictures below! 
Here is her cake! It was from Knakel's Bakery in Culpeper. My favorite!!!
This is a picture of the whole place!
In case you can't read this, it says "Dresses, Ribbons and Hair to Curl! Congratulations Dana on Your Baby Girl." How cute!
Here is some of Brian's chocolate dipped strawberries. Ella's lucky to have such a good chef as a dad :)
I cannot begin to say HOW spoiled Ella is! She's one lucky girl!

I definitely could not have asked for a better shower, friends and family.
I'm still feeling pretty good! The doctor has been saying recently that Ella has been measuring a little small for 37 weeks. I had a sonogram last week and they said she was measuring 5 lbs. 13 oz., but they said give or take a pound. Her head is measuring right on (of course, all Ward babies have big heads :) ). I think she's going to be great and I cannot wait to see who's features she takes! I will have another sonogram this week to make sure she is still growing. As much as she's had the hiccups this week, I bet she's grown a lot! Everything is all ready for her. Last night, Brian and I watched "The Happiest Baby on the Block." It was a good and informative video. I think we've learned a lot from it.
I have eight days (max) of work left. I guess who's counting? MEEEEEEEE! I can't wait to have 5 months off!
Lately I have been feeling some tightness in my stomach. I hope I'm not jumping the gun. I have also been nesting like a mad woman. Friday night I was up until 1:30 cleaning and organizing. I think this is a time that Brian enjoys the hormones of pregnancy! I'm trying to walk her out of me! Can't wait to meet her!
