The 30-year-old superstar, who has displayed a steely competitive streak in winning a jaw-dropping 18 Olympic gold medals over four Games, is a downright softie when describing his seven-week old son. "When I'm holding him or laying on the couch with him, it's just awesome," Phelps said as he looked forward to the arrival of fiancee Nicole Johnson and their little one in Omaha, where Phelps will vie this week to make a fifth Olympic team at the US swimming trials.
