It’s Extraordinary! Everything’s Normal!

NORMAL –

–adjective

1.  conforming to the standard or the common type; usual; not abnormal; regular; natural.

–noun

2.  the average or mean:

A word that would otherwise not be too impressive of an adjective, I will gladly, and whole-heartedly, accept now and for the next 7 months.

Here are some other words I would not mind hearing the doctor say about our baby:

average, common, commonplace, ordinary, regular, routine, run-of-the-mill, standard, typical, or usual

So we heard the baby’s heartbeat.  He / She’s working hard in there to grow and be healthy.  And Heather is doing everything right on the outside. 

We found out we are actually 6 weeks and 6 days pregnant today.  We thought we were 7 weeks 4 days… but what do we know! 

Anyway, baby is 9.4 mm long and has a heart rate of 146 beats per minute.  I’m not sure what this all means exactly, only that it is… NORMAL.

Here are some pics of the little one.
