It's really, really... real! Today we saw it.
The heartbeat. Little hands and feet. Arms, legs, a head.
Also found out that we're a bit earlier on than we thought at approximately twelve weeks tomorrow. Which explains a lot since weeks 8-12 tend to be some of the hardest for me.
As for my heart... relieved and overjoyed! All because of that tiny, 165 beats per minute on the screen. (Oh go ahead, start your old wives' tales now... not a single one held true for Owen, we mean MADDIE!) :)

In other news, yesterday was Daddy's birthday!
As if we needed further proof that Hope indeed comes from my gene pool, she was so excited for "DADDY'S PAWTY!" that she kept watch for him just as soon as he left for work. As soon as Tucker gave his welcome home bark, she burst through the garage to "lei" one on him, practically opened his presents for him on his way in the door, and shrieked with glee all night.
Birthday kisses and hugs and a little family-style surf and turf. We hope you know just how much we love you, honey...
Sure glad Grandpa and Grandma brought your heartbeat into the world all those thirty-something years ago!
To the moon and back,
Katrina, Hope, and Maddie
