Hello

YAY, the baby shower, lol. I figured I'd give you guys one more fun chapter, with more Emmett (=

A big huge thanks to the Beta, blackwolf2dragoon (= She's pretty awesome.

Alright, so only 4 more chapters left )=

Song for this chapter: Beautiful by Jason Reeves. It's a really cute song that, I think, best explains how Edward is feeling in this chapter. You can go to my profile and follow the link to the playlist and listen to it. And if you like it, you can download it (=

Chapter 37 .. Edward

"Alice, slow down. You don't even know if Bella wants this or not."

My sister turned around to glare at me. She put her hands on her hips and narrowed her eyes, "Of course she'll want this, and even if she doesn't, she needs it. You guys are nowhere ready for this baby, and I'm here to help you. Hence, the baby shower." She smiled and dropped her hands, then turned around and skipped off, but before she completely disappeared, she turned and smirked at me, "Excuse me, hence the surprise baby shower." Then she gave me a warning look, daring me to argue.

I groaned and plopped down on the couch. I leaned back and closed my eyes. I hadn't got much sleep at all last night. Bella tossed and turned all night and it doesn't help that I had stayed up the better part of the night trying to finish up the song I was to send off tomorrow. It was nearly finished, and it's what I had planned to devote most of my time to today, but obviously, my sister had other plans.

I rubbed my hands up and down my face, then up into my hair. I pushed the hair away from my forehead and sighed.

"Trouble in paradise?"

I removed my hands to see Jasper leaning against the wall smiling.

I shook my head, "Worse. We're talking like a tsunami taking out the coast of my paradise."

He creased his brows and walked across the living room to sit on the chair, "What's up?"

I sat forward and looked over at him. "Well my sister, and your just-so-wonderful fiance, has planned a baby shower for Bella."

Jasper nodded in acknowledgment. "Oh." He leaned back. "Does Bella know about it yet?"

I shook my head, "She wants to keep it a secret, but I don't know if that's best."

Jasper shrugged and smiled, "Bella might enjoy it."

I narrowed my eyes at him, "Who's side are you on?"

He laughed, "Listen, I know you know Bella best, but we know her too. We know what she's going through, and I think this could help. She's kinda been down lately, and we want her to be happy about this baby. I've talked to Alice, and she's not going too big with this. She wants to keep it simple and classy, like Bella."

I groaned, "You knew about this?!"

He nodded slowly. "Everyone knows, everyone but Bella." Then he leaned forward again, "Besides, we already bought your gift, so you can't complain."

I shook my head, "You shouldn't have." Then I looked down at my interlocked fingers, "You know, I still haven't paid you back for the rings."

He waved his hand in front of him in a dismissing manner. "Don't worry about it. I told you I didn't want you to pay me back."

"But, I'm going to." I looked him dead in the eyes, "I'm going to once I get everything settled with this song." He tried to speak up, but I interrupted him. "Would you like the satisfaction of buying your wife her own wedding band?"

He nodded slowly, "I would."

I nodded back, "Alright then. I love what you and Alice did for Bella and I, but I want that too. I want the satisfaction of knowing I bought Bella's wedding band. By paying you back, I'm doing just that, in a sense."

He sighed and looked down, "I guess you're right," Then he looked back up at me and gave me a small smile, "but know that there's no rush. We did that for you and Bella during a time you wouldn't have been able to do it yourself. You know I wasn't trying to step on your toes by doing that, it was just something we thought you two deserved. I know they are only rings, and rings don't classify a marriage entirely. They don't make it official or anything, but I think it would be really hard to be married to Alice, and not have my ring on her finger. Not just an engagement ring, but a wedding band. Something to let everyone know she was completely taken. Completely mine. Forever."

I nodded in understanding. "I know, and I really appreciate what you did, and I understand exactly where you're coming from. I wouldn't want Bella without a wedding band either." Then I heard her car pull in the driveway and I stood up and walked to the window to see her climbing out of the passenger seat, and Rosalie hurrying over to help her. I smiled and let the curtain go, turning back to Jasper, "But know, I will pay you back."

He nodded and stood as well, giving me a gentle smile and walking upstairs.

I walked to the door and opened it just as Bella stepped up on the last step. I smiled down at her and she returned my smile. I took her hand and led her into the living room and to the couch. She sat down sideways and sighed. I sat down next to her and lifted her feet to rest on my lap. "Did you have a good day love?"

She smiled and nodded, "I did. Rosalie and I found some really cute baby clothes."

"Did you buy any?"

She shook her head, "No. I'm still waiting for you to take me." She playfully narrowed her eyes at me.

I nodded and sighed, "I'll take you. I promise. How about this weekend?"

She nodded, "We have our seven and a half month check up this weekend. Maybe we can go the day after."

I smiled and nodded, moving closer to her, "Sure thing."

She laid her head back and closed her eyes just as Rosalie shut the front door. She had a couple bags in her hands, so she went straight upstairs, probably to find Alice.

When Rosalie was out of sight, I moved closer to Bella and took her in my arms, bringing her against my chest. I gently lifted her from the couch and carried her across the living room. She opened her eyes and started laughing as I got to the stairs.

"Edward, what are you doing?"

I smiled down at her and bent quickly to kiss her forehead, "I'm taking you upstairs, what does it look like?"

She laughed again and shook her head, "I'm getting too heavy, now put me down."

I shook my head and started up the stairs, showing her it was nothing to have her in my arms like this. "You're not too heavy. Now relax and enjoy the ride."

She giggled and laid her head against my shoulder. When I reached our room, she reached out and opened the door and I walked in. I kicked the door shut behind up with a louder thud than I intended.

I think she was expecting me to put her down, but I didn't. Instead I carried her all the way over to the little adjoined room and opened the door. She gave me a confused look, but I just set her down in the chair next to the keyboard and reached over to turn the keyboard on. I sat down in front of it and smiled over at her.

"I've almost finished the song. Do you want to hear it?"

She nodded quickly, "Yes. Of course." She motioned for me to go ahead and I turned to start playing.

Halfway through the song I noticed Bella had moved over and laid her hand on my leg. I turned just enough to see her and she smiled her big beautiful smile, urging me on.

I finished out the song and looked down at the keyboard, not turning to look at her. The song had ended abruptly because I hadn't quite wrote the ending yet.

"Edward, that was great."

I looked next to me to see her face sincere. She was smiling and stood up to come sit on my lap. "It was beautiful. Like always. Thank you for playing for me." She wrapped her arm around my neck and leaned down to kiss me. Then she quickly climbed off my lap.

I reached my arm out for her, "Where are you going love?"

She shrugged, "I'm sitting back over here." And she sat down in the chair she was occupying before.

I shook my head and stood up, moving in front of her and pulling her back up. I put my hands on either side of her face and kissed her softly. "You're beautiful, and you're not too heavy to sit on my lap silly girl."

She chuckled and shook her head, "Do you realize how much weight I've gained in the past month?!"

I nodded, "Yes, I do. That's good though. You're supposed to." I put her at arms length and looked down at her now more prominent stomach. "You weren't really expecting to stay your normal size, were you?"

She shook her head, "No." Then she smiled.

I smiled back and brought her back against me. As I was hugging her, she suddenly hissed quietly and put a hand on her stomach. I immediately pulled away, "Bella?! What's wrong?"

She shook her head, "Nothing, he just kicked." Then she smiled again, "Hard!"

I smiled and put my hand on her stomach, crouching down until I was level with the baby. I gently kissed her hand and pulled it from her stomach, holding it in my own. Then I kissed her belly. "Baby, be easy." I laid my other hand against her stomach. I felt the baby kick again and smiled, but Bella winced again. I looked up at her, "Does it really hurt?"

She nodded, "A little. It's more uncomfortable. Usually he'll just kick a couple times and then stop, but now he's just going at it." Then she gave me a small smile, "I think he liked your voice."

I smiled, but I felt so bad for her. It seemed to actually be hurting her.

I heard someone enter our room and I turned around to see Alice wandering into the little room. She smiled and saw me crouched down in front of Bella.

"Oh! Sorry, am I interrupting something?" She started to back out, but Bella stopped her.

"No, he's just kicking, really hard." Bella sighed and laid her hand back on her stomach, wincing again.

Alice gasped, "It's kicking?!" She turned around and hollered for Jasper to come in here.

When Jasper walked in, he stood next to Alice.

"Can I feel it?" Alice stepped forward and asked Bella permission. Bella nodded and Alice placed her hand right under Bella's as she removed hers. The baby kicked again and I stood up to stand beside Bella. Alice squealed in delight and turned to Jasper, "Jazz, come feel the baby."

The baby kicked one more time, really hard and Bella closed her eyes. I was just about to stop Jasper and Alice from touching her, but when Jasper put his hand against her stomach, the baby kicked a lot lighter and then stopped all together.

Bella opened her eyes and sighed. She smiled, "Finally."

Alice took her hands off and huffed silently, "Well that sucks." Then she laughed and gently pushed Jasper away, "I don't think the baby likes you Jasper."

They both laughed as they stepped away. Then Bella gasped again, clutching her belly.

I tightened my arm around her and soothed her, "Bella, baby, are you alright?"

She shrugged, "He's tough." Then she smiled.

Alice skipped back over, "You're really certain it's a boy, aren't you?"

Bella shrugged again, "I'm not positive, but it's just what I see. A little boy." Then she groaned again, "A little boy that takes lots of pleasure in beating up his mother." She laughed lightly then cradled her stomach and closed her eyes.

I hugged Bella close to my side and led her out of the room behind Alice and Jasper.

Bella turned to go to the bathroom and as soon as she shut the door, Alice pulled me aside.

"Listen, I need you to keep Bella occupied for the next hour or so. I need to decorate the living room and get the presents out of the cars." She smiled up at me, "Think you can do that?"

I nodded, "Yeah. Just promise me one thing?" I looked down at her and she nodded, "Don't go over board with this. She's just really tired today and she just got back from shopping and with the baby being a little rough.." I sighed, "Just go easy on her, please."

Alice nodded, "Of course. I don't have anything huge planned, trust me." She rolled her eyes and smiled, "I know that may be difficult for you to believe, but really, I don't have anything too spectacular planned. Just the family, some presents, and lunch." Then she gasped, "Oh! Speaking of lunch." She turned around and rushed to the door, "I have to call Emmett, see if he can pick up a few more things. Just keep her occupied. I'm sure you can manage that." She smiled and walked out the door just as I heard the bathroom door opening.

I turned to see Bella coming out of the bathroom. She smiled at me and walked over slowly, wrapping her arms around me and putting her face against my chest.

"Are you tired love?" I felt her nod against my chest and I gently moved her sideways to the bed, "Then why don't we take a nap."

She didn't fight me, didn't argue at all, just laid down and put her head on the pillow. I crawled up in bed next to her and covered her up with just the sheet before pulling her close to me and wrapping my arms around her.

In no time Bella was fast asleep laying against my chest.

I reached over and turned on the TV, then turned it down real low as to not wake Bella.

After about a half hour or so I heard a very faint knocking on the door, and just a second later, the door opened and Rosalie stepped in. She smiled over at me and set a bag on the floor.

"It's for Bella. I bought it for her today, and Alice wants her to wear it later."

I quietly thanked her and she closed the door behind her.

I laid there with Bella close to me for almost another forty-five minutes or so, until she started to stir. She was never one for really taking naps, so I wasn't surprised she only lasted little over an hour.

Her eyes slowly fluttered open and she looked up at me. I shut the TV off and smiled down at her, "Good nap?"

She nodded and sighed, "Very good." Then her arms tightened around me, "Thank you."

I moved down to kiss her forehead before rolling sideways and cupping her face in my hand. I kept myself half propped up with the other arm. "Are you fully awake?"

She giggled and sat up a bit, leaning against the head board. "I guess, why."

I chuckled before sitting up next to her, "I have a feeling Alice is about to come up here any minute."

She looked up at me confused. I just shrugged and climbed off the bed and walked over to the bag. She climbed off the bed too and stood at the end of it, "What are you doing?"

I picked up the bag and reached in to grab the outfit inside. I pulled out a long grey dress and handed it to Bella, "Rosalie wants you to put this on. Then we have to go downstairs."

She laughed and walked over, taking the dress, "Alright..?" She walked over to the bathroom and closed the door.

Well Bella was done dressing, I opened our bedroom door and walked her down the stairs. When we reached the living room, I noticed the whole room was covered in yellow streamers, even the staircase, and every table surface was covered in yellow and white rose pedals. In the middle of the coffee table there was as round bowl filled with all white pedals and a yellow ribbon around the top. The room smelled incredible.

Bella gasped and put her hand over her mouth. Then took a step forward and smiled, "Oh my god! It's beautiful!" She turned back to me and her face was beaming, "This is all gorgeous."

I nodded, "Don't tell me." I pointed to Alice, "Tell her. She set this all up for you. I can't take any credit."

Bella turned around and smiled over at Alice. "This is great. You did all of this in an hour?"

Alice nodded, "We all did. Do you really like it?"

Bella nodded quickly. "I do, but what's it for?"

Rosalie stepped in next to Alice, "It's your baby shower." She smiled and stepped forward to hug Bella. "Carlisle and Esme should be here any moment and your father is stopping by after work."

Bella smiled even wider and turned to me. She reached her hand out for me and I walked toward her, taking her hand.

We got Bella seated on the couch and Alice sat next to her. Jasper stayed on the other side of the room with Emmett and I.

"Hey, I thought guys weren't allowed at baby showers?" Emmett sat down in the chair in front of me and looked over at the girls.

Rosalie shrugged, "Usually they aren't, but this wouldn't be a baby shower without us all here. So you're going to enjoy it." She narrowed her eyes at Emmett until he leaned back in the chair and smiled.

"Alright, but she gets my present first!" Emmett jumped up and rushed to the back of the room before Rosalie could stop him.

"Emmett no!" Alice stood up and glared at him. "No presents until mom and dad get here. Now sit down and calm down." She smiled and sat back down next to Bella.

Emmett pouted and stalked back over to his seat, sitting down. Jasper and I shared a laugh until he threw the chair back and jabbed us both in the stomach with the back of it.

Bella smiled over at me and I could see the happiness in her face; in her eyes. She was having a good time already and it made me rethink what I had thought this morning. Maybe she did need this. It made her look forward to the baby, instead of giving her something to fear.

She had been taking such good care of herself and doing exactly what Carlisle and I told her to. She was really trying, for us, and the baby, and now she could be rewarded with a good time. A relaxing day devoted to just her and the baby.

I heard a knock at the door and turned to get it but was tripped by Emmett.

"Sorry little bro, but you see mom and dad all the time!" He smiled down at me and ran to the door, swinging it open and grabbing mom up in a giant hug.

He finally let her down and Carlisle and mom stepped inside. Alice rushed over and hugged both of them, quickly followed by Rosalie and Jasper. I went over to Bella and helped her up. She gave me a beautiful smile and walked over to Carlisle and Esme slowly.

"Oh Bella!" Esme hugged her close and then let her go, putting her at arms length and smiling wide. "You look so gorgeous! And you're getting so big. I can't believe the baby will be here in just over a month." She hugged Bella one more time before letting Carlisle step in.

She stepped behind Bella to me and hugged me, "You two are doing so well." She whispered in my ear and I smiled back at her.

"Thank you mom."

By the time everyone was settled, Esme and Bella started talking about everything baby.

She looked absolutely glowing in her dress. She was perfect. Her stomach was accentuated just right and she was all smiles and giggles. This was how I liked to see her -happy and bright.

We didn't have to wait long for Charlie to show up. He knocked on the door just a couple seconds before entering, and as soon as he was finished greeting everyone, Emmett jumped up again.

"Can I give her my present now?!"

Alice shook her head, "Nope. Now if you would have listened to me and gotten her the present I suggested, maybe you'd be able to go first. But you didn't, so you go last." Then she jumped up and went to the corner where all the presents were sitting.

Emmett was about to sit down and pout when Carlisle volunteered him to go grab their gift for Bella and the baby out of the car. He groaned and walked out the door. While Emmett did that, Jasper moved the coffee table out of the way and pushed it to the other end of the living room so there was enough room for everything.

Alice grabbed for a huge box, almost half her size, and Jasper hurried to go over and help her. He took the yellow wrapped box from her and kissed her cheek before walking back over. Alice turned and grabbed a much smaller box and followed right behind him.

They both sat the boxes down in front of Bella and urged her to open them. Bella smiled over and at me and beckoned for me to come sit next to her. I walked across the room and Alice moved so that I could sit next to Bella.

Bella unwrapped the big box first to reveal a car seat on the side of the box. She smiled, "Wow, thank you Alice."

Alice shrugged, "Jasper helped pick it out. It's kind of his present to you."

Bella reached over to hug Jasper, then stood up to hug Alice.

"Open the smaller box. That one's from me." Alice gently pushed it toward her and Bella picked it up.

When she got it open, she pulled out a brown diaper bag. It was unzipped and you could see it was jam packed full of diapers. Bella chuckled and thanked Alice again.

"OK! Me next." Rosalie jumped up off of the couch and walked over to the presents. "Now, you can't actually open the really big box until you open the car seat box and look at it."

Bella creased her eyebrows as Rosalie set a small box in front of her. She reached out and unwrapped it, then opened a white box and pulled out two baby monitors.

I chuckled and kissed Bella's cheek, "Now those will come in handy."

She smiled and nodded, then thanked Rosalie.

All of a sudden I heard a loud noise come from outside and Jasper got up, along with Charlie to go find the noise. Just as they opened the front door, Emmett pushed a big box inside and groaned, "Good god, this thing weighs like ten thousand pounds! What is in here?!"

Carlisle and Esme both laughed and stood up. Carlisle walked over and dragged the box to the middle of the room.

Emmett sat down on the floor in front of Rosalie, "Bella needs to open that now! I really wanna know what's inside."

Rosalie lightly smacked the back of his head, "Emmett, it's a baby shower, not Christmas."

Emmett rubbed the spot she hit him and shrugged, "So, I wanna know what I almost pulled a muscle carrying across the driveway. Because somebody," He shot a glare at dad, "had to park all the way down by the street!"

Carlisle chuckled and walked over to Bella, "You can open it if you'd like." He held out his hand for her and walked her to the huge box.

She started unwrapping it, "What's with all the huge boxes? Don't babies need small stuff too?" When she finished pulling the paper off, she gasped and put her hand over her mouth. "Oh!" She turned around to me and moved aside so I could see what it was. "Edward, it's the cradle I picked out!"

I stood up, giving both my mother and father a thank you look before walking over to Bella. I put my arm around her and kissed the top of her head, "It is."

"Edward told us you liked it, and Alice called later that day and told us exactly which one it was." Esme smiled at Bella and I.

"Thank you." Both Bella and I said at the same time. She giggled and looked up at me, pulling me down and kissing me quickly on the lips.

Then Bella walked over to Rosalie's present and started taking the paper off. She finally got it all off and stood out of the way so I could see it. It was a stroller.

"It matches what Jasper got you." Rosalie came over to stand next to Bella. "It's a regular stroller, but while the baby is still a newborn, you can just set the carseat on here." She pointed to the picture on the box showing Bella what to do. "It snaps into place and sits backwards so you can see the baby."

Bella smiled wide and hugged Rosalie, thanking her over and over.

"Alright," Emmett stood up, "Can I go now?"

Rosalie let go of Bella and led her back to the couch. "No. It's Charlies turn."

Charlie smiled and stood up, walking to the door and outside. Presumably to his car. Emmett grumbled under his breath, causing Bella to laugh as she sat back down next to him. She looped an arm through his, "Don't worry, they always save the best for last."

Emmett smiled down at her and nodded.

At least that shut him up.

Charlie came back inside just a moment later with a box in his hands. It wasn't real big, but big enough. He set it in front of Bella and bent down to kiss her cheek. She smiled back at him and started unwrapping the box.

"I didn't know if you two had some sort of theme going for the baby, but I tried to be as neutral as possible, since we don't know yet what the baby is." He sat down across from Bella and watched her.

When she dropped the paper away, the box showed a swing.

"Dad, it's so cute." She jumped up off the couch, not too quick, and went across to give her father a hug. "Thank you."

"You're very welcome. I know when you were a baby, whenever you would cry all I had to do was put you in your swing and turn it on. You loved that thing." He grinned up at her, "And it shut you up for a couple hours."

Bella started laughing, then looked up at me. "Why don't you open something Edward?"

I shook my head, "You're enjoying yourself. Go ahead."

She walked over to me and put her hands on my chest, gripping my shirt and pulling herself up to kiss me. "Aren't you excited about this?"

I nodded, "Of course I am, but this is more for you. I want you to have fun."

Her smile never faded, it was like it was now a permanent fixture on her beautiful face. I gently pushed her back to the couch, sitting her back down next to her father and Alice.

Emmett jumped up as soon as Bella was seated and before he could say anything Rosalie cut him off, "Yes! You can give her your present now!"

He rushed over to Bella and held his hands out. "Come on!"

Bella narrowed her eyes at him, "Emmett, I just sat down."

Emmett stopped for a moment, but finally smiled a huge grin and reached down to pick her up. She squealed as he hoisted her up in the air.

"Be careful with her Emmett!" I walked across the living room to stand in front of him.

He nodded and smiled, "I know, I'm being careful. I'm just taking her outside."

I moved aside to let him by with her, but followed close behind.

When he got her outside, he put one hand over her eyes and carried her to the end of the cement. I looked over at what was in the yard and started laughing. Emmett turned to smile at me like a child.

He finally set Bella down and uncovered her eyes for her to see what was sitting in the middle of our small backyard.

She started laughing as did everyone else. She turned to Emmett, "Um.. Thank you?"

Emmett nodded, grinning the whole time, "You're very welcome Bella." Then he walked over into the yard and reached inside the battery powered black Jeep. He pulled out a small box and brought it over to Bella. You could fully tell that this whole gift was all Emmett. The small box was wrapped in the comic section of the newspaper and there was tape everywhere.

"What's this?" Bella tried to talk through her giggles, but she just couldn't stop laughing.

"Just open it. If the baby is half as clumsy as you are, it's going to need what's in there."

She nodded and started pulling the tape off and then the paper. When the box was opened she pulled out the smallest helmet I'd ever seen. "What's this for?"

Emmett smiled and looked at Bella like it was obvious, "The Jeep doesn't have a top on it. So the kid needs a helmet. It's like riding a bike. Only battery powered!"

Bella shook her head and put it back in the box, then grabbed the rest of the things, "And these?" She pulled out a handful of sweaters.

Emmett stepped closer and took them. "They are padding! I couldn't find baby pads so I figured if you just put them all on, it won't hurt when it falls."

Bella couldn't stop herself this time. She almost dropped the box of stuff she was laughing so hard.

In fact, I don't think I'd seen her having this much fun in quite a while. She deserved a good time, and I'd have to remember to really thank everyone later for doing this for her.

"Leave it to Emmett to be completely impractical." Rosalie stepped forward and took the box from Bella, setting it right inside the house on the table. "You know that's not the kind of thing for a newborn, right?"

He nodded, "I know, but the kid will get to use it eventually, and it's like a mini beast!" Emmett smiled and I cringed slighty. I hadn't heard him call his Jeep that in a long time. "Every kid needs means of mobility." Then he hugged Bella and looked over at Rosalie, "And the sweaters were just a joke. Bella needed a laugh." Then he pulled away and reached into his pocket. "Speaking of a laugh." He pulled out a folded up brown bag and tossed it to me, "These are for you."

I caught the bag and unfolded it, reaching inside to pull out.. Condoms?

I looked back at him and furrowed my brows, "Really? She's already pregnant."

He laughed and shrugged, "We don't have much room for two babies, so keep it wrapped up for a while will ya?"

Bella laughed even harder and I chuckled, nodding and putting the condoms back in the bag.

Yes, most deffinitely an Emmett thing.

We finally got Bella back inside and sat her in the living room to eat lunch. Alice promised she'd get the rest of the smaller presents after lunch.

I sat next next to Bella on the couch and just watched her. She was having so much fun today and enjoying herself. She usually wasn't one for presents and big things, but today meant a lot to her. Today was good. Not to mention we got just about everything we were missing. A part of me hated that I couldn't do that for Bella; that I couldn't take her out and buy her everything we would need for our child, but another part of me knew that this was OK. That if she was handing this all well, so could I.

The rest of the afternoon was comfortable and fun. Alice split the rest of the presents between both Bella and I. They were all mainly diapers and bottles and other baby stuff I didn't even know we needed. The rest was clothes, mostly white, or yellow, and colors that could be used for both a girl or boy. Bella loved everything and kept that huge grin on her face for the rest of the day.

The baby would kick every once in a while, and everyone got to feel it. Jasper would get discouraged because every time he put his hand on Bellas stomach, the baby would only kick once more, then stop all together.

All together, today was a good day for her. It was a good day for the both of us.

Bella was happy, I was happy. The baby was alright today, and things were good.

I was really hoping everything could just stay this way. That our lives could be like this everyday. Not once during the baby shower did I ever think that things could change at the drop of a hat. That one minute, everything could go wrong. Not once did I ever even let my mind go in that direction, because today was too good of a day to ruin it with negative thoughts.

Things were good. Today.

So? What did you guys think? All of the pictures of the big gifts (Carseat/stroller, swing, cradle, diaper bag, and the Jeep (= ) are in the album, so you can go check them out (= Even the dress Bella wore is in there.
