A Touch Of Poppy (Complete)

Fifty🐄

Over the next couple of months as baby Bale grew we got a lot of things done.

Brennon has been helping me with the animals while Worth and his brothers and Hart and Damon have been building our new house.

We decided not to fix up the bedroom for the baby at home and would decorate the new house how she wants it.

It was lunchtime and I walked into the house to find Poppy asleep on the couch. She's staying tired and I hate to wake her but Clara wants us to come to eat.

I squatted down next to the couch. "Poppy it's lunchtime," I said.

She opened her eyes and smiled at me. "Of course I was napping again."

"It's ok you are making a baby," I said helping her up.

"Let me go pee again for the hundredth time and I'll be ready to go." She said.

I watched her walk into the other room and I couldn't help but smile. She is the cutest pregnant woman I've ever seen.

We have been mulling over names for a while now and have finally narrowed it now.

When she walked back out she had pulled her hair up into a bun. "You look beautiful Poppy," I said pulling her in for a kiss.

"Thank you! Let's go we are starving." She laughed rubbing her belly.

I helped her on the side by side and then we headed up to the main house. When we walked in almost everyone was around the table.

Holland wasn't here because she was at her store working along with Derrick and Chad.

We sit down and Worth walked over kissed the top of her head and asked how she was.

"I'm good just sleeping a lot but we are hungry." She smiled up at her dad.

"The house is coming along and we will have it done in a few more months. Maybe you will be in it before the baby boy gets here." Worth said.

"I can't wait I'm excited and Lilly is so ready to decorate the baby's room for me." Poppy said.

After lunch, I asked If she wanted to ride with me to get apples and she said yes so I gathered up the buckets and we headed to the orchard.

"It feels so nice out here today." She said.

"It does and that breeze is awesome. You sit here and I'll gather up the apples." I said.

"Ok Romeo and I will play apple ball then." She giggled.

Romeo was loving that she wasn't helping so she could play fetch with him. He hasn't left her side since she become pregnant.

I cant wait to see how he acts with the baby. They will be best friends.

I finished gathering up the apples and walked back over to the side by side. "Are you ready to go?"

"Yeah if you are. I'd like to see some of the animals and walk through the stables." She said.

"Alright then let's go," I said turning the side by side around and heading down the hill.

When we made it back to the stables she walked over to Cotton and gave him some lovings and fed him some apples while I fed the others.

We walked around and checked the animals. "Let's go over and see our new house and see what Dad has done." She said.

"Alright, we can ride by," I said as we headed to our house. It's a little ways away from any other house but basically straight across from the stables which is the spot we picked.

"Oh wow look how much they have done Luke!" She said.

"Yeah, the outside looks nice. It's the inside that takes forever to do the wiring and installing everything but this is great." I said.

"Yeah, dad said I need to pick some countertops this week." She said.

"You pick whatever you want for your kitchen. I'm fine with it." I said.

She laid her head on my shoulder. "I'm so excited to get in this house with our small little family."

"At first I wasn't happy that they wanted to build us a house but now I'm happy about it," I said.

"Have you thought any more about the names we narrowed it down to?" She asked.

"I have what about you?" I asked.

"I have been going over it in my head as to which one I like better. Maybe we can figure it out tonight." She said.

We headed back home and sit on the porch a little bit and I played fetch with Romeo when Damon and Brennon walked up.

"What's up, guys?" I asked.

"Just wanted to come to talk with you guys. We are done for the day and just waiting on dinner." Brennon said.

"Come have a seat. I was about to go get some lemonade want some?" Poppy asked.

"Sure that sounds good," Brennon said.

"I will help you bring it out," I said handing Damon the ball to play with Romeo.

We carried the lemonade outside and sit on the porch and talked until Worth walked down to say come eat.

He helped Poppy on the side by side and he ran up the hill to the main house with Romeo.

Poppy was giggling to watch her dad run with Romeo. "I know that's what he's going to be doing with the baby."

"Oh, your dad is going to be such a good grandpa," I said.

"Oh you know he doesn't want to be called grandpa." She laughed.

"Oh yeah, he wants to be called Pappy wasn't it?" I laughed.

"Yeah, Pappy Worth." She giggled.

I helped her inside the house and we went to the table to sit down. It smelled so good in here and I have no idea what she made this time.

"Tonight's menu is baked ziti with salad and garlic bread," Clara said.

My mouth was already watering. I looked over at Poppy and she was smiling holding her belly.

"Are you ok?" I asked.

"Yeah feel he's kicking." She smiled at me.
