Perfect

The tour continued, and Hunter was watching me like a hawk. He came to almost every sound check, made sure I stayed hydrated and took my vitamins. "Babe, I know you're just trying to take care of me, but you need to chill out." I said, making a cup of tea.

"I just want to make sure you're all good until we see Dr.Goderich." he smiled as I handed him a mug of coffee.

"I appreciate it," I sat across from him on the couch, "but people are gonna get suspicious. We still have only have two weeks of the tour left." We were in the home stretch and over the two weeks, we only had ten shows. Hunter reached his hand across the table, gently massaging it.

"I know its real and its happening but I would just feel better when we get the green light from our doctor." I squeezed his hand and nodded. We made our way to bed as we had an overnight drive to North Carolina.

The tour finished up in Kentucky and it was our first full day home. Hunter and I dropped Sutton off at preschool so we could visit with my OB/GYN and follow up from the test I took several weeks ago. "Hunter, Jenna." Dr.Goderich greeted us, "Its been a while. Either you wanted to say hi or you're pregnant."

"I am pregnant." I briefed him on when I found out, and that I think we conceived early March. "We were on tour so this was the soonest we could be in." Hunter held my hand as the technician started the ultrasound.

"I see you've both been very busy lately, Jenna is that your billboard by the Cumberland?" I nodded, quickly talking about my new ventures. "It seems as though you have a healthy little baby there," Dr. Goderich added, "based on what you've told me Jenna, I'd say you're about nine weeks now. Your due date would be about November fifteenth. Your baby is the size of a raspberry."

Hunter's eyes were sparkling as we observed the little blurb on the screen. We got cleaned up and received our prints and scheduled our next appointment.

"What do you think," I asked Hunter, "should we keep the gender a surprise again?"

"Whatever you want babe." He held my hand as we grabbed Starbucks before picking up Sutton from preschool. I placed my hand on my tummy, knowing that there was another baby Hayes on the way.

"Let's call this one nugget, and keep it a surprise."

Hunter kissed my hand, "Sounds perfect."
