2 MONTHS LATER-

Dixie's POV-

Holy shit.. my pregnancy journey has gone by so fast, I swear we just found out yesterday. Today I'm 18 weeks, and this little angel is the best thing that's ever happened to me. A few weeks ago at my last ultrasound visit I was told we could find out the gender at my 5 month prenatal appointment. We could've found out the gender a little earlier than most do.. but I'm giving the results to my best friend Kate so she can plan a gender reveal party for us.

Today I have my 18 week ultrasound appointment. I swear every time I enter that room, I end up leaving with red eyes, and mascara smudged all over my cheeks. My precious little one amazes me at each appointment with every new fact or change that I get to see. It's honestly such a crazy experience, but I'm loving every minute of it.

I am long past my first trimester, and I'm feeling a lot more energized and less sick than I was in the beginning. I was told that I might be able to feel a few flutter movements from the baby as I'm a few weeks into the second trimester. Hearing this made Noah and I's hearts melt. We both love this baby to death already, and are beyond excited for the next steps.

Noah's POV-

Time has flown.. I couldn't have been more proud of Dixie and how she's handled all the stress and anxiety over the past couple months. Each appointment I've been to, just shows how excited she truly is to become a mom. I know Dixie, and I know she's always been ready, but as we all know.. she's very hard on herself and sometimes will let her thoughts take over. We're working on that, together.

I woke up quite early today, to get a head start on my schedule. I hit the gym at 6am, and met up with a few friends on the way out to grab some food. Dixie has her 18 week appointment this morning at
11am, so I knew she was still sleeping. Never wake a pregnant woman!! I sometimes like to sneak attack her and come home and cuddle up next to her when she least expects it, but today was different. I arrived back at the apartment around 9am.. assuming Dixie would be asleep. I took the usual route.. up the elevator, down the hall and into the last door on the left hand side. It was quiet as I walked inside, but the curtains were open and the dishwasher was on. I tiptoed my way to the bedroom and looked through the little crack in the door to see the cutest little mommy and baby moment.

"Hello my love" Dixie said wrapping her hands around her little bump moving her hands in circular motions. "You are my little one, and I'm gonna take such good care of you ok" she said making a little heart with her pointer and middle fingers. "Daddy and I are so excited to have you here, and I can't wait to snuggle you all day long" She said in the cutest little baby voice. God this girl is literally adorable. I walked in with a few tears running down my cheeks.

"Babe, what are you doing hom- and why are you crying?" She said softly walking over towards me. "Shhhh, I'm ok, I just get emotional when you and the baby talk to each other that's all." I said pulling her into my chest ever so lightly. "Awe my love don't cry, I just wanted them to know how much we love them." She said getting up on her tippy toes and kissing my lips very softly. "I love you" I said gazing into her dark eyes. "so much" she said with the brightest smile pasted across her face.
