Hockey Wife

Chapter 12

I wake up suddenly and rush to the bathroom and throw up. Mike  comes in and says,

"Well at least we know what's causing it now."

I laugh and Mike comes over and picks me up.

"What are you doing?"

"Simple, just trying to make life as easy as possible for you."

"Oh you."

"Oh me."

We both laugh as Mike lays me on the couch.

"So when's our appointment?"

"I think at 2 and he said it should be quick."

"Alright."

"So what would you like to do the rest of the day?"

"I don't know."

"How about baby shopping?"

"Okay."

"Really?"

"Yeah I mean we have 6 hours."

"Oh yeah we do."

"Let's go then."

Soon we are driving to a local baby furniture store. As we near our destination I say,

"Wait won't people recognize us."

"Yes"

"So we are basically telling them that we are expecting."

"Yes, is that a problem?"

"Nope I guess not, oh and where are we going to put this crib?"

"In the guest bedroom I assume."

"Oh okay."

We park and get out. As we enter the clerk ladies scream. They rush towards us and ask,

"Oh my God,you guys are expecting?"

As usual Mike handles the talking saying,

"Yes we are."

"Oh well we just like to start off by saying thank you for choosing our store..."

"Yes yes thank now if you could be so kind as to point us towards the cribs."

"Oh over there."

"Thanks."

We quickly walk past them to where the cribs are.

"Your choice."

"Really."

He nods. I walk towards some simple ones consisting of whites, reds, pinks none I like. I skake my head at them and sigh. Then at the corner of my eye is a light blue crib. I rush towards it almost squealing. Light blue was my all time favorite color and I wanted every thing the baby had to be this color. Mike comes over with a smile on his face.

"Well look at this its the shade of blue you've always wanted. "

"I know!"

A sales lady comes and asks,

"Have you found what you were looking for?"

"Yes, this crib is what we want," I say.

"Awesome if you'll just come over here we'll discuss payment and shipping."

Mike goes with the lady while I stay and watch over the crib like my baby was in there. I couldn't wait to be a mother that was for sure. Mike calls for me and we are off to other stores. When we've finished we have bought more clothes than we have ever bought ourselves.
