“It’s too bad that they have to go to school, I rather liked it when we were gathered together as a family.” “Me, too, Esme, but you know that the school already called twice when we were in France and Italy. There were only the possibilities of going back to school or moving and with our child on the way school was the better option.” I nodded sadly. Then I remembered that Renesmee should be here with us, yet I haven’t seen her. “Where is Nessie?” “I’m here, Grandma,” she called from the kitchen. I walked to her and saw that she just ate breakfast. I sat next to her and we talked a bit. “And viola, breakfast for my beautiful Esme!” Carlisle exclaimed and sat a dish with a variation of fruits, vegetables and a sandwich in front of me. “Thank you,” I said and smiled at him. He sat next to me and watched us eating.

After breakfast, we moved to the living room and played with Renesmee. She was now looking like a four year old, though her growth seemed to get back to a normal pace. We played numerous board games and other kinds of plays we came up with. Right now Nessie was engulfed in a puzzle Carlisle gave her. She would probably finish it in record time just like the rest. He sighed and sat next to me on the coach. “She is such a special child,” he said. “I know, our little Nessie,” I said and smiled at her when she looked at us. “When do you go back to work?” I asked him. I wish he wouldn’t for now but he probably had to. “Not until the baby’s here, I am still on vacation.” “Really?” I said loudly, that response I haven’t expected at all. “Yes,” he smiled. I hugged him and then snuggled to his side. Renesmee got up from her place on the ground and walked towards us to hug us as well. “I love you,” she told us. “We love you, too, honey,” I said and Carlisle put her on his lap. “When are Mommy and Daddy coming home?” Renesmee asked after a short pause. “Not until 4 o’clock, so in 5 hours, sweetie,” Carlisle told her. She sulked a bit but soon after she went back to her puzzle while singing. We both smiled and watched her some more.

The next three weeks went by uneventfully. Emmett and Rosalie were still sulking about going back to school but they knew why and didn’t argue (much). Edward and Bella decided to take Nessie up to the mountains for this weekend and Alice and Jasper wanted to go on a shopping trip (rather Alice towed Jasper with her). Carlisle and I were glued together. My stomach was growing swiftly now. It became difficult doing what I normally could do alone like dressing, though now Carlisle helped me getting ready. But the perks of being in the 6th month were that I finally had no morning sickness, sleepiness or other pregnancy symptoms. I could finally enjoy having my baby. She even kicked often now, it didn’t hurt but I knew that I would remember this feeling forever. Carlisle tried feeling her kicking, but very often he missed it by a second or so, which frustrated him and made me laugh; though when he felt it his smile was triumphant and full of love.

Alice and I started renovating the room next to mine and Carlisle’s bedroom, although I was not allowed to help, I couldn’t even lift a carton before one of my family would snatch it from me. That left me the planning of the colors and the decorations. Alice and Rose ordered all the furniture and wanted it to be a surprise for us, every time telling me that if I don’t like it, they will change it immediately. I let them do it; after all I never disliked anything they’ve made so far. Plus, that gave me the time to relax and be with Carlisle.

He cared so much for me; I fell even more in love if that was even possible. Carlisle was constantly at my side, supporting me with everything even with the few things I could do on my own. I loved this time and wouldn’t want it to end. So far he never spent so much time at home, it hasn’t particularly saddened me as I had someone around me, but now that I knew how it was to have him around 24/7 I wasn’t sure if I could go back to how it was before. I wouldn’t want to think about it until that time came and until then I would enjoy every little moment, every little kiss and touch. I would savor that!

Not long to go now till the baby is here! :D
