~ Brody's "Mini Me"

I had my second prenatal appointment on Monday with Dr. Bratteli. Everything was going very well until she began to search for our baby's heartbeat. She had been looking for maybe 10 minutes before she had to throw in the towel. She wasn't worried, but she sent me down to have another ultrasound done just so we could hear the heartbeat and get a measurement of the speed. Sure enough our little one was in there, with a heartbeat beating away at 160 BPM. While we were watching him/her, I had noticed that his little arms were both up by his head and was completely amused because our new little one was all kicked back in my womb the same way Brody sleeps or kicks back. As a matter of fact I even had Brody with me napping in the stroller with his hands tucked behind his head, even the technician was amused. We continued to watch him/her at different angles, this time from the top looking down on him, and with his little hand, still up by his head, he began to wave...It was soooo unbelievably cute...definitely made day=)
