It's alive!

We went to our first midwife appointment yesterday with the whole family. Max loved being able to ask questions and help take my blood pressure. She showed the kids a little baby that was the size of the one in moms stomach. The most exciting part was hearing the babies heartbeat. I forget how exciting it is to hear that beating heart and know that's alive. It makes it seem more real. Max thought it sounded like a choo choo train. So far so good!
