Baby Kicks

It is an exciting time for me in Amanda's pregnancy. A few days ago, while we were in the Tacoma, WA area, I felt our baby kick for the first time. Most of the time his kicks are small and I have to really pay attention to feel them but a few times they have been very strong and distinct. I try to get my hand on her belly for a few minutes at different times of the day and them I prompt him by saying, "High five baby. High five."
It is also exciting because Amanda is now 23 weeks pregnant and our growing son is 11 inches long and weighs a little more than a pound. No strangers have asked her if she is pregnant yet but it is easily noticed by people who have known her for more than a few months. A pregnant wife is a beautiful sight and she is looking more and more pregnant all the time.
