A Pictoral Debute of Baby Brown

Okay, so we told you that pictures would be coming further down the road... Well, we ended up getting an ultrasound sooner than anticipated. There was some concern with spotting this past week. Since it was still happening by the end of the week, the doctors thought it would be best to get an ultrasound done, just to make sure everything is ok. We're happy to report that everything is fine. In fact, we were told that Baby Brown is measuring 3 inches long (which puts us at 13 weeks, not 12). We recieved about 8 different snap shots. Here are just a few:

Heartbeat

Well today was the next of many milestone days for our growing family. We had our 2nd doctors visit, which is really the first official exam. We are happy to report that all seems to be doing well in baby's little world. When we first tried to listen to the heart beat, the little wouldn't cooperate (not unlike either Mommy or Daddy, at times). However, after the exam we tried again and this is what we heard:

We still have several weeks to go before Baby Brown makes a pictoral debut... probably some time in January.
