Moving Baby

Last night, just before drifting off to sleep, Phillip got to feel little Elayne kick for the first time.

To say it was exciting, overwhelming, incredible, the highlight of my day, magical, etc. would be an understatement.

First of all, he is the first one to be able to feel her "from the outside." I've been feeling her for a couple of weeks now and everyone else around me has been trying like crazy to feel, with no success. But last night, there she was. One big, swift kick to his hand.

She knows who he is. And she really does react differently to him. She loves him like crazy. Everyone else has to press and move and get me to lay in funky positions to try to feel her. And she moves as a result of the attention. But with Phillip, all he has to do is barely place his hand on my belly and she kicks him over and over again (of course not felt by him until last last). But she doesn't stop kicking him. She knows who he is.

Pure love right there.
