Baby Update!

It's time for the latest baby update!!! My OB appointment was yesturday, and it was FABULOUS!!! Brian was actually able to be there, and he got to see our baby and the little heart beat!!! I fell in love with him all over again when I saw the look on his face. He couldn't stop smiling and was so amazed when he saw the little heart beating away. The heart beat was about 167 beats per minute. The baby has grown SO MUCH and is at least 7 and a half times bigger than at our last appointment. Though it can't be seen on the ultrasound, he/she already has arms, hands, fingers, legs, feet, and toes!!! The brain is growing and developing, and everything is looking wonderful. Originally, we weren't going to find out the sex of the baby, but we are debating if we really want to wait. The main reason for wanting to find out the sex of the baby is because Brian would get to be there when we find out. We had always envisioned him being there for the birth and us both finding out the sex at delivery and him announcing it to everyone. Since he is going to be in Iraq, we may find out whenever we can so he can be a part of that. We haven't made any decisions yet, but we will let you all know when we do. So, our next OB appointment is June 25th at 9am, so we will post an update when we get back. We love and miss you all!!! Thanks for following our updates!!!
