The last few days pass by faster than expected and I wake up to find it to be May 2nd already.
I peek my eyes open to see Rose already gone from the bed, the sun already high in the sky. I pick up my phone and glance at the time.
11:04 AM.
I groggily sit up, rubbing at my sleep filled eyes, only getting about six to seven hours of sleep. I've been falling asleep fairly late into the nights, tossing and turning as nothing seems to be comfortable anymore.
I make the bed and head to the bathroom to jump in the shower. After washing, I dry off and walk back into the bedroom wrapped in my towel. Or semi wrapped, my stomach making that very difficult.
A light tap comes from the bathroom door connected to the room, and the door is thrown open to reveal a very excited Landon holding out a T-shirt.
My eyes scour over the T-shirt, laughing upon realization of what it is.
The base of the shirt is pure white, but then there is an animated drawing of a green dinosaur sporting a big round belly centered on the shirt.
Right above the dinosaur reads "pregosaurus".
"Do you like it?" He asks with excitement and I laugh once more.
"Perfect. Does Rose have a matching one?" I ask and he nods with a wide smile.
"You know it," he says and his eyes scan over my appearance.
"Does that towel even cover all of you?" He asks, trying to peek his head around to my backside. I roll my eyes and pull it tighter against me.
"No, my entire ass is hanging out right now," I say and he laughs.
He walks over to me after shutting the door to the bathroom, wrapping his arms around my waist and resting his hands on my bare butt.
"It's still a bit wet," Landon says and I roll my eyes.
"It's kind of hard to reach everywhere with small arms and a two babies in my way," I say and he laughs.
He leans his head down to give me a lingering peck, pulling apart and then making his way back to his room.
"Get ready, party starts at two," he says with a wink as he disappears back to his room. I quickly throw on a pair of shorts after putting on the shirt, it fitting perfectly around my swollen breasts and belly.
After brushing my teeth and styling my hair, I leave the room ready to help set up. I wander downstairs, to see Rose and Lauri hanging streamers from the ceiling, singing along to a tune on the radio.
I recognize the eighties pop song radio, and I laugh when I hear the song, which is quite ironic.
"Like a virgin! Touched for the very first time," Lauri sings next to Rose's face, and Rose rolls her eyes with a smile at her mom.
"Take notes from Madonna," Lauri says and we both giggle, they're eyes shifting towards me.
"Good morning sleepy head," Lauri says and Rose chuckles.
"Yeah right, she fell asleep after three or four in the morning. I could feel her tossing and turning beside me multiple times," Rose says with crossed arms and I shrug innocently.
"Blame the babies," I say.
"Start blowing up the balloons, please," Lauri asks me as her and Rose continue the streamers. I nod and check around the room and spot a helium tank, a stack of balloons beside it just waiting to be blown up.
