I know Jake is excited but he has no patience, two minutes in the waiting room and he is going to be complaining. Also the man hates doctors and hospitals.
It took us a half hour to get to the office from work. We parked about a block away and walked over. Jake was already acting like he made a bad choice in coming with me but he kept moving. We walked in and hit the up button on the elevator. The door opened and we walked in. It smelled funny and it is not just my hormones it would stink for anyone. I hit the button for the fourth floor. We got out and turned left, and went into the third door on the right. The waiting room has pictures of babies everywhere I know Jake is
I love my doctor I have been seeking her forever. I mean as much as you can love your gynecologist. I have seen Dr. Andersen since I was in my early twenties.
I stopped at the desk and talked with the receptionist. It is the same lady that is always there. Her name is Lisa.
"How can I help you today?" she asked.
"Appointment for Amy Santiago,"
"Okay there you are, the doctor is running a bit behind so just take a seat."
We walked toward the back corner and sat in the back corner. It is the same spot that that I normally sit in when I come here. Jake was getting really uncomfortable.
"Amy this place smells funny. It brings back weird memories."
"It is because its it clean. And you do not know what clean smells like because you are a slob. Also memories of what being in a doctors office?"
"I can be clean when I want. I mean yeah I was just in the emergency room a couple of weeks ago." He went quiet. "Also I cannot wait to see our alien today. It's going to be great."
"I do not know if we will see it today. Also I wish you would stop calling it an alien. It can hear you, you know."
"Wait it can hear me?" He sat and though of something for a minute.
"Baby I am your father," he said it in a Darth Vader voice with his head near my belly.
I hate it when he does really weird stuff especially in public. I gave him the please stop doing something stupid face.
"Could you have waited to do that when we were in the privacy of our own home."
"It was cute and you know it."
I had to give him a smirk he is adorable but still does way to much stupid shit, "But you are still an idiot."
"But I am your idiot."
I had to think of something quick to change the subject.
"Jake I know we have not talked about this much but what do we want to name our alien." I had to do air quotes around alien it did not feel right if I did not.
"I mean we could go traditional and go Blarg, but I am partial to John McClain for a boy."
"So that is a no and no on both of those." It was funny but still we needed to be serious.
"I mean being serious Elizabeth or Caroline for girls, boys Travis or Daniel."
I am honestly surprised, "Wait you had real names picked out?"
"I told you I have been doing research."
"Your mom would be impressed."
"I know I am too."
"Amy," said the nurse. She was standing at the door to go back she was in pink scrubs.
"Coming. Come on Jake."
We got up and went back with the nurse.
