baby kicks for daddy

I felt this baby kick at the same point in the pregnancy as I did with Tyler's. However, the style of kicks has been completely different. Tyler did karate chops and would go nonstop for quite a while. This baby kicks more frequently but very gently, so it has been harder for Alex to experience it as well. This time she was uncharacteristically thumping me and Alex was able to feel it as well. The awe he showed and the prideful smile he flashed me afterward really touched me. There is just something about a man who engages parenthood and family in that way. Love sigh!
