Baby is a mover and shaker already!

I had my second doctor's appointment today and I got to hear the heartbeat! It was the most amazing sound I have ever heard. It was strong and fast! It was funny too because they could find the heartbeat easily, but then the baby would jump around and they'd have to find it again. They said it was great the heartbeat was so easily detected because sometimes early on it can be difficult, and it was also reported that the baby is "very active" already considering he/she was moving all around. So cute! My yoga instructor Susan always jokes that the baby will come out doing headstands. Maybe she's not too far off!

I am in such awe still. I have my heartbeat, but then another heartbeat inside of me. It's so beautiful. Seeing the heartbeat on the ultrasound last time was incredible, but hearing it was indescribable. I feel even closer to the baby. 

Shoot. Now I'm getting teary-eyed.
