Hi baby.! I smiled kissing Jordan as he came into the house. I was cooking dinner and he was out trapping.
What's up bae what you cooking.? He asked kissing me back.
Just some steak. I bought some food stamps off this girl today so we are stacked on the food.
Good shit.! I'm bouta take a shower so let me know when it's done.
Okay baby.! He went into the bedroom so he can shower. I loved our apartment so much. Our bedroom was the master bedroom it was so huge with two walk in closets and a full bathroom in it. Our second room next to ours which was gonna be the baby room had a small closet and was spacious but was filling up quickly. Every week we both took 100 dollars from whatever money we made and each and spent $200 on our child. Wipes, diapers and clothes, bottles, blankets, crib sheets, whatever we wanted to get her with our money. I started to set up her nursery. The theme was Minnie Mouse. She had a white crib. A Minnie Mouse crib set and a medium sized stuff Minnie Mouse in it. She had Minnie Mouse wall decor that I got from Walmart and matching mirror squares to go on her crib side wall. Between her name "Nova'Rain My'Luv Forever" I just wanted to name her Nova'Rain but Jordan really liked My'Luv Forever. My baby was gonna have two middle names. She had a tall white light next to the crib and a rocking chair that sat in front of it. On the right side of the wall next to the crib was the changing table station and bottle making station. And on the wall that was next to the door hung a 43inch tv on her wall. On the left side right before you entered the closet was a 4ft casing box shelves. I put books in there, Minnie mouses, some clothes and little decor. On top of it sat a pink light some books and Johnson and Johnson body washes, and lotions. The closet was full of diapers wipes and clothes. Jordan put her stroller and car seat together so that sat in there as well. It was so freaking cute.
The room on the opposite side of the kitchen and living rooms was our guest bedroom and the main bathroom. I felt so lucky to have this place. I finally made our plates and sat them at the island. I grabbed two cups and grabbed the juice.
Baby you ready to eat.? I asked Jordan walking into our bedroom. He looked tired as hell. He was watching the game and trying to get dress.
Yeah here I come baby. He said looking up. I grabbed my phone and went back into the kitchen.
I took my seat and scrolled through my news feed on Instagram for a little bit waiting on him. "It looks good baby.! Thank you.!" He smiled sitting down.
Thank you.! I said putting my phone down. We held hands and he led the grace.
Good is good, god is great thank you for letting my wife prepare this wonderful meal for us tonight. Thank you for giving us the nourishments we need for the next day. In Jesus name we pray Amen.!
Amen.! I picked up my fork and sighed right into my food. I was so hungry but I got full so fast. "What you do today bae.?!"
Shit usual, trap a little bit, rob a little bit.! How was work.?
It was okay. I got floated to work on the baby section. I can't wait til this weekend to buy some stuff for Novi.!
Word what you see.?
Just some cute little outfits and stuff. Girly stuff. I finally found a Minnie Mouse diaper bag.
Did you get it.?
No I just hid it so I can buy it this weekend.
Go get it just in case somebody find it and buy it. You need the money.?
No I got it. I gotta grab the WIC tomorrow too so ima be a little late coming out tomorrow night.
It's Ight. I'll grab a pizza or something so you don't gotta cook when you get off.
Sounds like a plan to me. You okay though.?
Yeah I'm good. Long as y'all good I'm good.! He smiled taking a sip of his juice.
Your the best baby.
I've been told.! I got you something.!! he said wiping his hands off and digging in his pocket. He pulled out a small blue box from Tiffanies.!
Bae what's this.?! I asked smiling.! He opened up the pretty box and it was a diamond stud necklace that had said "I love you Promise and Nova'Rain always my 'luv and forever, love daddy.!" He put the necklace around my neck and kissed my cheek. "It's so beautiful I love it.!" I said wiping my tears looking down at it.
Your welcome. I've been saving for it. I was gonna wait until Christmas but I thought this was a perfect time for this.
Thank you baby I love it so much.! I said hugging him and kissing him.
