We have made it through the first 23 weeks of pregnancy and things are still going really well. The baby continues to grow and the kicks get stronger by the day! Yesterday at work the baby kicked so hard I nearly jumped out of my chair! I thought someone was trying to grab me! Pretty silly I know!

Matt finally got to feel the baby kick!! He was so excited. We were laying in bed reading on Sunday night (August 10th) and the baby was being particularly active. I grabbed Matt's hand and put it on my belly and finally the baby kicked so daddy could feel it! Of course after that it was hard to get Matt's hand off my belly! He got to feel baby a few more times before we went to bed. I am pretty sure Matt slept really well that night after having his first of many interactions with Baby Mize.

Last Saturday we took Scooter to his/her first concert (DAVE MATTHEWS BAND)! Surprisingly, the baby was very quiet. I have to admit I was a little surprised with all the noise I thought for sure I would feel quite a few kicks. I guess he/she is not nearly the fan mommy is!
