" Boy or girl?"

" Defintely boy," I said.

Annabeth looked up,"Why?"

" If it's a girl I would have to be all protective. But if it's a boy I wouldn't have to worry."

She crossed her arms," So, you wouldn't protect him as much?"

" It's not that I wouldn't protect him. It's just that boys need to get ruffed up sometimes."

" Oh."

Wisegirl was six months into the pregancy. We were waiting until he or she was born to find out the gender. We've been buying unisex baby supplies.

Just looking at the stuff made me nervous but I had to be strong for Annabeth.

One day when we were eating dinner out of no where she cried," I'm just so scared."

It really shook me up.

I had took her hand," Annabeth, I am here for you. I won't let you go through this by yourself. I'll be with you every step of the way."

It consoled her then but I don't know how much longer it will be before I crack.

Annabeth's stomach was starting to get big, so I came up with an idea.

" Let's go take some pictures. We can start a family album."

We were just sitting around the house and I thought we should do something to ease th stress.

She looked up from her book," Great idea."

I met this guy during one of my quests who was a professional photographer. I had saved his pit bull from some monsters so I'm sure he'll give us a discount.

" Of course! It'll be on the house!"

" Thanks Leonardo."

" No problem. Now, let's get to it!" He clapped his hands gleefully.

In our first picture he positioned us where I was down on one knee with my hands on top of Annabeth's stomach.

"Ok, now stand behind her with your arms wrapped around her."

It seemed as though we took a thousand pictures but each one slowly eased my worriness about the pregnancy.

"They look good," Thomas said, he had come over for dinner.

" This is my favorite," I showed him a picture where I kissed Annabeth's stomach.

"So, you got about 3 more months before the new arrival what do you have planned after that?"

I looked around to make sure Annabeth wasn't in hearing range.

" I plan on marrying Wise Girl," I pulled out a ring.

"Dude, is that real diamond?"

I chuckled," Only the best for my love."

He looked amazed," Wow. Is it a girl or a boy?"

" We're waiting until the day of his/her birth to find out."

Tom put his hand under his chin," How much do you want to bet that it's a girl?"

I dug through my pocket," How about 20 bucks?"

"Deal."

Annabeth's voice rang from the kitchen," Dinner's ready!"

3 months. Time will pass quickly. I just hope everything goes to plan.
