34 weeks.

"Everything is pretty much ready for my little man, all we need is.. The little man!" Jessica giggles.

"Awe! *Smiles*

Jessica, his room is adorable! And this picture! Oh my gosh!"

"I know, isn't Jane great?"

"Yes! And look at you, sexy mama! Jess, you look hot!"

"Oh stop!" She laughs.

"You do! Sam was a lucky man!"

"Hm well.." She shrugs.

"He was!"

"Thanks." Jessica laughs.

Sarah walks around looking at everything in the nursery.

"Look at this, you're even stocked up on diapers! You're ahead of the game!"

"Yeah! A lot of people at work have been buying me some!"

"Really? That's sweet!"

"Yeah, they're awesome."

"So you're all ready for him!"

"Yep!" Jessica sits in her nursing chair.

"I can't wait to meet him!"

"Me either! I still can't believe it.. I'm pregnant, Sarah! How weird is that?!"

"It's crazy! I'm so happy for you."

"Thanks." She smiles while rocking back and forth with her hands resting on her belly.

"... You know, today makes seven months since Sam passed."

"Seven months? Wow!"

"I know. It's weird..

I still feel like he's gonna walk through the door and be like, Surprise! I got you!

Haha! I'd probably kill him if he told me he was alive!" Jessica laughs.

"Hah! It certainly sounds like something he'd do."

"Definitely! He was always joking around! He was always, always, Always trying to light a fire under my ass!

I miss it."

"The boys are just like him."

"Oh yeah! *Nods* They're always playing a joke on someone! Sometimes it feels like Sam is in the house, with the way they act!" Jessica chuckles.

"Hm! They're great boys, you're a lucky lucky mama, Jessie."

"Yes I am!" She softly smiles at her as she continues rocking and lightly running her fingertips on her belly.

The next day.

"I'm running out of things to wear to work! None of my clothes fit me anymore!" Jessica says walking into the kitchen in a dress.

"Heh, he's getting big!" Sam looks at her growing mid section.

"Yes he is! And he's moving even more! I barely slept at all last night! I am definitely starting to feel this third trimester."
