The Beats of a Teeny, Tiny Heart

This morning we had our second Doctor's appointment.  This was an exciting one.  We were going to hear the baby's teeny, tiny heart.

As Adam and I got ready to go, Audrey asked where we were going.  We told her and in her unique, Audrey way she said, "I wanna go wif you."  So we decided we would take her along.  Grammy was here and we left Luke with her.

We met with our favorite Doctor - the same Doctor that delivered both Audrey and Lucas.

And...


drum roll...



we heard the distinct and beautiful sound of a teeny, tiny heart beating.


It was exciting!  And fun!




And, if you want to speculate,



and if you believe all of the old wives' tales...




the Doctor said it was measuring about 160 beats per minute...




Which may or may not mean that this baby is a girl.

We'll know for sure in about 8 weeks!
