I had a pregnancy scare this morning, baby seems to be okay at the moment but Jarnies keeping a close eye on me. I've been staying with her for three weeks so far and there's only a week until Lizzie comes home. I'm definitely more bloated, it's not a bump but my stomach is alot more bloated than it used to be. Lizzies going to have a shock when she comes back. Christmas is getting closer and I'm just doing my last minute shopping before Lizzie comes back and can see what I'm buying her. Most of her gifts are wrapped up except from one of two which isn't that bad for me.
Me and Jarnie are currently at target trying to find something for dinner tonight. She thinks we should have Mac and cheese and I think spaghetti Bolognese. "How about we meet in the middle. Lasagna?" I nod "yes perfect idea" she grabs a ready made one from the freezer and puts it in the basket. Me and Jarnie have definitely become more close these past couple weeks I've been staying with her. I have to be I guess. "Is there anything else you need?" She asks and I nod "mushrooms and avacados. They are my latest cravings on bread and we have bread so this is all" we find the isles and I put some in the basket. "Four avacados y/n. How many do you need?' I shrug and sigh "it's not me, it's your grandchild" I joke and tie my hair up into a loose bun. "Since we are on the topic of grandchildren. I think we should check out some babygrows" "Lizzie is just like you" I mumble following her to the baby section. "Oh my god, these are so cute" Jarnie coos over them "I'll be back in a minute. I need to get some maternity things" she nods and I go to the next isle. I want to get back relief because I know my back is really going to hurt further into the pregnancy and I also want to get some knee supports for the gym when I go back. I grab a really nice maternity dress from the hanger because its so pretty and the other things I need before going back to find Jarnie. The baskets full of baby clothes, there has to be at least a dozen of them. "Jarnie what the hell?' I ask walking over to her "it's just a bit of shopping" I sigh and look through them "you don't even know what the baby is going to be" "it's fine, they have a 9 month return policy" I put my things in the basket "come on, let's go. If you were Lizzie, I'd make her put all of them back". Jarnie pays at the hill and we head out to her car "did you want to pick the car up now?" I nod with a smile and get in her car "I'm so excited to have my own car again, I do like Lizzie's car but it's better having two. I've also ordered a car seat just so it's ready" jarnie laughs buckling in her seatbelt "is it coming before Lizzie gets back?" I nod "yeah, hopefully. There's also a blanket to go with it". Jarnie starts the engine and we start the journey to the car "oh, and there's a big crate to go in the back for Leia which is much bigger than her other one". We arrive at the ar and I show my details and pay for it before showing the car to Jarnie. "I'll meet you back at the house" I nod and get in my new car, I follow her all the way back to her house and park the car in the garage so it's a secret for when Lizzie gets back.
Finally the car seats arrived and so has the Muslin blanket to go inside. Lizzies coming back in three days so the timing is lucky. Jarnie carries the box through onto the table for me and gets me some scissors so I can open it. I lift it out of the box and sit it on the table "isn't it so cute. It's even got a little cushion" I coo over it. It's beige to go with the inside of the car and has a couple of bees on the outside for decoration. "It's very pretty" I pick it up and hold it in my arms "it's very light at the moment. Once it has the baby in I'm sure it won't be" jarnie laughs and unfolds the muslin blanket "this is cute, where did you get this?" "I can't remember, I think it was Zara". The muslin has winny the poo and tiger on it in multiple different stitches, Lizzie's favourite book from when she was little. Jarnie carries the carseatout to the car and puts it in the backseat so it's all ready for when Lizzie and I need it. I put the blind up in the backseat and lay the muslin blanket in the carseat so it's ready for our little rascal to join us in the world.
Jarnie and I go back inside to keep warm and I decide to have a quick shower before lunch. I close the curtains and strip down out of my clothes and head into the bathroom. I let the shower run until it's warm and get in once it's the right temperature I get in. The water runs down my body and I move onto washing my body. I stand in there for a while getting warm. I hear the door to the bedroom open "I'll be out in a minute Jarnie!" I call with the water running down my hair. The bathroom door opens slowly and I quickly shrivel up to hide myself "what the h-" I stop seeing Lizzie with a small smile plastered on her face "hi baby". I open the shower door and walk over to her "your home!" I squeal and allow Lizzie to pull me into a kiss, I wrap my arms around her neck and pull away smiling "hey, you making me all wet" she giggles and cups me cheek "you werent supposed to be back for three days" I say looking into her eyes "we got more done than expected. Are you okay?" I nod smiling "yeah, I'm fine. I'm so glad your back" she pulls me into another kiss but our bodies are touching this time. She pulls away and smiles into my eyes "your showing" I shake my head and laugh "it's just bloat" her hand holds my stomach making my smile grow "Hiya little blueberry it's mama, I'm home. I'm not leaving you for a while, don't worry" she presses a small kiss on it and stands back up "can I join you in the shower?" "I'd like nothing more". I get back in the shower and wait for her to join me "did you see Leia?" Lizzie nods and moves the shower head so it's over the both of us "I've got a surprise for you" "I've got a surprise for you too" I bite my bottom lip and smirk "it's not as good as mine Lizzie" her eyebrows raise "I'm sure it will be, maybe even better". She pours soap into her hand and massages it into my body "when me and your mum went food shopping, she got alot of baby clothes. Like alot of them" Lizzie smiles and kisses my temple "she's excited, we all are. Only 30 or 29 weeks left now, ive lost count" I nod and hold her hands "I'm going to ace this birth" "are you though babe? I think I'm going to be holding your hand and pulling you through it" "okay fine we'll see. I'm definitely acing it though if the baby's under 7lbs for sure" "we could have a really fat baby though weighing 10 pounds" "mmm no, they'll be a cute little baby. We're both smallish, baby will be small too". We finish of in the shower and wrap two towels around us before going across the hall back into the room I'm staying in. Lizzie closes the door whilst I change into my nickers "babe your definitely showing" I look at her and smile "it's just bloat, baby won't show until at least 12 weeks" she walks over to me and holds my waist "well whatever it is, your stunning" I lean forward and kiss her lips "so are you. It's a lovely surprise you back"
I dig my face into her neck and take in her smell "I want to show you my surprise, get dressed" I sigh and pull away "uh fine". I change into jeans and a jumper "babe is this mean?" I turn around and smile at the pajamas she's holding up "yeah. Make me feel at home and they fit over my pregnant stomach" I joke.
We walk down the stairs and Leia jumps up at us being herself again "hey LayLay" I Lizzie whispers and strokes her fur "there you love birds are, you found her then" Lizzie nods and puts her arm around my waist "I certainly did. Where's my surprise mom?" "Where you left it honey" Lizzie takes me into the kitchen and lifts a box into the table "open it" I raise an eyebrow but take the scissors from her to open it. I cut the tape and open the sides "surprise" I bite my lip and take two ceiled bags out. "Oh baby" her arms wrap around my waist "do you like it?" "I do but there's tonnes. We don't need this many baby clothes and you got both genders, how are you going to send them back?" "I'm not. We will keep them for the other kids we have and they aren't all newborn stage. I picked them out myself so they go all the way up to 12 months" I nod "you really did think of everything. I love them" I unpack the bags and hold up a newborn outfit "for when we leave the hospital" Lizzie mumbles against my neck. I huff and fold it back up "I'm not having a hospital birth. I'm around those places too much" "we'll talk about it closer to the time but there's a boy pile and a girl pile. For when we have our little prince" I scoff and turn around to face her "you mean princess" "mmm no I mean prince" "Princess!" Jarnie shouts coming making me laugh "thank you. Sorry baby, looks like our little princess " she pouts and bends down to kiss my stomach "now listen to me little blueberry, your blue because your a boy. If you were a girl you'd be called pink grapefruit or something. Don't let mama down".
I grab her hand amd pull Lizzie outside "where are you taking me?" She laughs being dragged along behind me "somewhere" "my wife's crazy. She's a crazy pregnant woman" i stop and open the garage door with a button "Elizabeth Olsen, I know you said we'd order me a car when you got home but I was too excited so you have to forgive me" the door swings up revealing the white Hyundai sonata. Lizzies mouth drops "yep, definitely crazy" I laugh and pull her into the garage. She opens the passengers door and looks around "it's nice, very nice" I smile and watch her nozy around "oh and the surprise is in the back" she climbs out and closes the door "oh no, your scaring me now" I wink at her and open the back door "tudaarrr" I sing "oh wow. It's adorable" "I know right and look at the blanket. SHE is going to love it" "not as much as I love your new car".
