Yes, it is normal for the human heart to occasionally experience missed beats. However, this should not occur very often or cause symptoms. If this is the case, then you should discuss this with your doctor during your next visit. However, if you develop chest pain, shortness of breath, several missed beats over a short period of time, dizziness/lightheadness, or other worrisome symptoms, see you doctor immediately.
