Vanessa's POV

   On the car ride home last night, I was already thinking of what the nursery would look like and the names of our child.  If it was a boy, I want to give him something hereditary like maybe Michael's middle name Joesph but like shorten it so it could be different.  If it was a girl, I would like to give her a enchanting name like Aurora or Seraphina definitely not from a Barbie or Disney Princess movie. I'd like to give her my mom's middle name Rose again going with something hereditary.  I'm glad I chose to carry out my pregnancy now I get to experience my parents shoes first hand.  Michael, decided that he'll work from home while I was on maturnity leave I love that he would continue to support us while adapting to the situation. Plus, he owns the company anyway so he could do whatever he wants.

Michael, woke up before I did he made sure that there was fresh food on the table by the time I woke up to come downstairs. My belly was still small I could feel the fullness of my pregnancy as it was set in motion these upcoming nine months are going to be a adventure.  Either my stomach growled because I was craving breakfast, or the baby might've did something I'm not sure. I drew the covers back I stretched a little I wore only my panties and one of Michael's shirts to bed last night because I felt comfortible and I didn't want to fool with putting on pajamas. I rose up from the bed and went in to the bathroom to do my morning routine.  After using the toilet, washing hands, brushing teeth, washing face, and brushing my hair I put on some house slippers making my way down to the kitchen.

   I arrived to the kitchen where Michael was sitting at the table with his reading glasses on reading the morning paper surprised they even still produce those anymore since everything is mainly electronic.  Michael, closed the newspaper and placed his glasses in his shirt pocket he got up from the table to greet me with a good morning kiss on the forehead.

   "How did you sleep?, mamas." Michael said with a smile. I was fixing me a glass of orange juice before I replied.

  "Slept pretty good actually. I'm expecting to not get a lot of sleep during the upcoming months." I chuckled sitting down at the table where my food was already placed. Michael was pouring him some coffee then he sat back down, too.

   "Well I feel like it will be best if you try to get the healthy amount of sleep, but I understand why you may not." Michael reassured. I nodded in agreement my mouth was full so I couldn't verbally answer him.  Michael, chuckled because of me stuffing my face with food.

I swallowed my food.
"I will try but I don't think  I can promise that." I wiped the sides of my mouth with a paper towel.  Michael slid his reading glasses back on, and began going through the newspaper again  ever so often taking sips from his coffee. I finished my breakfast I took my plate up to the sink I started washing it during my attempt of cleaning the crusty stuff off of my plate I felt a slosh in my lower abdomen area.  It felt weird but I didn't think anything of it and went back to my chore. 

   I went over to Michael sitting at the table, and sat down on his lap. I leaned over and questioned him, " Whatcha reading?."  He flipped the page.

   "The comic section. There's some good ones." He said, I nodded and laid my arm across the back of his neck I began reading the comic section with him. I giggled when I found one that had some humor in it so did he.  I love moments like this just enjoying each others company, and having something in common.  I laid my head on his shoulder Michael placed a gentle kiss on my forehead.  He then closed the newspaper, and put his reading glasses back in his shirt pocket. I looked up at him and raised an brow.

   "Time for work, honey bunny" He said I got up off of his lap so he could go to his office which is on the opposite side of the mansion.  He grabbed the coffee mug he's using, and began making his way to his office. I wiped the table down also swept the floor tidied up the kitchen then made my way to the living room to relax on the couch.  I turned on the TV and starting watching a childhood favorite of mine when all of a sudden I had the urge to vomit again. This time it wasn't that severe just like a mild urge like when you eat something that didn't settle well with other things you ate.   I paused my show I slugged my way to the nearest bathroom to relieve the nauseous feeling I had.  Once I was finished, I flushed the puke down the toilet and washed my hands.  I curled up on the couch once more to resume my TV show. 

  It has been about maybe 4 hours since Michael went to do some work. I decided to walk to his office, and check on him I knocked on the door.  He gave me the signal to come in, so I did. 

  "How's work going?, babe." I asked sincerely.  He looked at me.

   "Well it's stressful, but that's what I asked for when I entered the business side of the industry. " Michael said, smiling.  I nodded and proceeded to sit on a love seat He had in his office.

  This man just continues to amaze me...
