End of first trimester
We're at the end of the first trimester now and moving into the second. We had another set of ultrasounds and bloodwork yesterday to check for any genetic defects. We actually got to see the baby moving around! Baby was moving it's arms and legs around and flipping onto its side as we were watching the screen. At one point it looked like baby was sucking on it's thumb.
Here are some pictures we got, Jolene thinks baby has my nose and her lips.

Heartbeat
We had our monthly visit to the women's clinic yesterday. No new pictures today but we'll get some soon, we're scheduling a round of high resolution ultrasound tests for detecting possible genetic problems. Relatively short visit today. We got to hear the baby's heartbeat! It was moving at a rate of about 150bpm, which is normal for babies but it sounded pretty fast. Jolene thought it sounded like a little train chugging along. Very cool to hear our little person in there.
We'll have our ultrasound tests within the next week or two.
