Today Tom and I went in for our 20 week ultra-sound. It was amazing! They check the entire anatomy of the baby. They started with her head and measured it and looked at all parts of her brain. Then they look at the baby's heart and check all four chambers of the heart and which way the blood is flowing through the arteries. Then they count to make sure she has 10 fingers and 10 toes, which she did. They also check the bones in the legs and arms. It was honestly the coolest thing ever! They looked at her spine, stomach, and belly size. Everything was measuring perfectly! Her heartbeat was 137. I thought it was neat that they could check the amount of amniotic fluid she is in. The last thing they checked was the blood in the umbilical cord to make sure enough was flowing through. On Friday, I go back to see the doctor for my 5 month check-up. Here are some pictures of Emma: 
Yes that is her foot next to her nose :)
She is sitting "Criss-cross" here. I guess she heard me say it enough at school. (haha)
