Since I started to feel the baby move, III has gotten more and more excited. I couldn't wait until he could feel it from the outside, but we never could get the timing quite right.
Last night, just before we headed out to dinner with his parents, I was laying down as he got ready. Baby started kicking a bit, so I asked III to come sit with me. He put both his hands on my belly and closed his eyes to concentrate. Baby boy gave a good kick just below my belly button.
III's eyes flew open. The expression on his face is one I'll never forget! I think the memory of it will remain one of my favorites for the rest of my life. :)

So so sweet! Delighted for both of you!
Awe, this post made me smile. :)
I know...I now try to live in the moment of every kick because before we know it they will be in our arms and not in our bellies. I think that will be somewhat sad actually?! Its weird I know...
yay!!
i've been waiting patiently for my little one to kick hard enough for hubby to feel it...but nothing yet.
