More baby stuff

It's been a little over 10 weeks since I got the order to stop running during this pregnancy, so I haven't had much updating on that front for you all - a very bizarre feeling.  

I am getting excited for our baby shower this Saturday; it'll be fun to see both of our families and talk about the arrival of baby Hacker!  (Due date is January 10th)
I have to confess that while I was first obsessed with updating our registry online to be sure I did plenty of research on every item, I have kinda been checking it now to see what's been purchased :)  I mean, it'll still be a surprise who bought it at the shower, right?  Is that bad?  I had the same problem when we got married, too.  Anyone else ever do this? 
So I'm currently 29 weeks pregnant and still feeling great!  Baby is apparently the size of an acorn squash now.  I get tired at the end of the day and need to rest and put my feet up when I get home, but that's about it in terms of pregnancy symptoms.  I've been very lucky so far and hope it continues for the remaining 11 weeks!!

For our shower this weekend, I wanted to include my husband - he's coming by at the end to help load up the gifts and I wanted to get him something special and help him feel included as well.  Clearly I'm new to this, but I picked up a few things as a 'New Daddy Survival Kit' just for him.  I'll give more details after this weekend on the off chance he actually reads this, but here's a preview which is exciting since the Lions finally won today:
