We're Walking On Sunshine!

Today was my second doctors appointment! I knew we would hear the heartbeat for the first time, so I brought my mom and my sister-in-law Sabrina with me! We walked in to the doctors office like it was going to be a girls day out to the spa, we had our Starbucks in hand, giggling and having a good time! We got back to the room and we went through the usual check-up stuff, pee in the cup, blood pressure, weight, height, more questions. When the nurse left and said the doctor would be back, I was getting nervous, not because of the upcoming pap smear, but because we were going to hear the heartbeat!! 

The doctor finally came in and told us that because I am not that far along, we may not be able to hear the heartbeat with her dopplex and she might have to break out the ultrasound machine; but I got Ryan on the phone just in case she could find it.  We were able to find it just for a split second, but she lost it.  I wanted to hear it longer so I was hoping she wouldn't give up... but she was able to find it again so Ryan could hear it too!! Thanks to my mom... she was able to video tape the whole thing so EVERYONE can hear the heartbeat! :) Enjoy!!!
