Chapter 37

Saturday, December 16

8:00 AM

I woke up in bed, and I reached my hand over to Tony's side and realized he wasn't in bed. I looked at my phone and saw it was 8 o'clock. I decided to get up and get ready for Jennifer and Jim's gender reveal party at 12. I turned on the light and opened my closet, and dresser drawers and got out some clothes. After getting my clothes for the day I went to get into the shower. After I got out of the shower I put my clothes and high heels on. I put on a Cap Sleeve V Neck Royal Blue Dress (Dress idea from .) Then I walked into the kitchen and saw Tony was making pancakes and bacon.

Me: Good morning.

Tony: Morning, babe. Would you like some breakfast?

Me: Yes, please.

Tony: How about some coffee?

Me: No, thanks. I'll have orange juice.

Tony: You sure you don't want any coffee.

Me: I'm sure. We should probably leave here about 9:30. If we do we should make it to Jennifer's at 10:30 or 11 if we run into traffic.

Tony: Ok.

I grabbed a glass and put orange juice in it, then I refilled Tony's coffee mug. Tony grabbed plates and put two pancakes on each of them, with some bacon.

Me: Is there more batter if we want more pancakes?

Tony: Yes, but you usually don't eat more than two pancakes.

Me: I know, but it's the holidays so I am going to splurge a little.

Tony: Yeah, why not.

We sat down at the kitchen table and ate our breakfast. It didn't take us very long to finish eating.

Me: I'll clean up the kitchen if you go change.

Tony: Ok.

9:10 AM

Tony came back into the kitchen wearing a pink suit.

Tony: What do you think of my suit?

I turned around to look at Tony.

Me: I love it, it's so pretty. Also are you hoping for a girl?

Tony: I would be nice to have both, a niece and a nephew. Also, I am wearing pink because you are wearing blue.

Me: Would you like to me wear pink so you could wear blue?

Tony: No, because I actually like this suit, and you look beautiful.

Me: Thank you.

Tony: Are you ready?

Me: I will be in a minute.

I went to the bathroom, brushed my teeth, then I walked back into the living room. I grabbed my purse and my keys.

Tony: Let's take the Tahoe today.

Me: Ok. Do you think I will need my coat?

Tony: It's 42 degrees outside right now. The high today is 46, and the low is 30 so you probably need your coat.

Me: Ok.

I grabbed my coat, then I went out the front door and Tony followed me out. He shut and locked it and we headed out to the Tahoe.

Me: It's so cold but I'm so glad there is no snow or ice on the ground.

Tony: Why? You love the snow.

Me: I don't want to fall, and I don't want to see or be in any accidents.

Tony: Yeah, I don't blame you.

Tony unlocked the Tahoe and came around to my side and opened my door.

Me: Thank you. (I said as I got in the Tahoe.)

Tony: No problem, babe.

Tony shut the door and then he got in on his side. He turned it on, and then he leaned over and kissed me.

Tony: I don't know what I would do without you.

Me: I don't even want to think about that.

Tony pulled out of the parking lot headed toward Jennifer's house. I turned it to a Spanish station because it plays upbeat music and I have grown to like it. Por Favor by Fifth Harmony and Pitbull came on so I turned it up so I could sing to it and rock out. While I was singing Tony was giving me funny looks. After it was over I turned it down and looked at Tony.

Me: What?

Tony: Nothing, I like seeing you so happy. You know next year we should go to the Bahamas for vacation. Wouldn't that be awesome?

Me: Yes, it would.

Tony: Let's save up some money so we can go. Ok?

Me: Ok.

Little did Tony know that vacation was going to have to wait a while due to the change in our lives.

Tony: We can tan, sip drinks by the ocean, go scuba diving, snorkeling, go to Castaway Cay, Gold Rock Beach, the Leon Levy Native Plant Preserve, Marine Habitat at Atlantis, Half Moon Beach, Coco Cay, Beaches of Stocking Island, Aquaventure Water Park at Atlantis Paradise Island, and so much more.\

Me: Wow, you have done a lot of research.

Tony: Yes, because I'm so excited.

Crap he's so excited about going to the Bahamas. How will he take it when he learns that he is going to be a father? I hope he is excited about the baby even though he said it wasn't the right time. For the rest of the trip I didn't talk I was thinking about life, and Tony was singing to Christmas songs. So I guess he didn't notice that I wasn't talking or singing.
