THREE WEEKS LATER
Landon walked over to the couch and woke Jamie up. She had fallen asleep on the couch after breakfast because she was tired. "Jamie wake up honey, it's time to go to our doctor's appointment," he said. Jamie sat up and rubbed her eyes. "How are you feeling?" asked Landon. "Okay I guess, I'm tired," she said. "Why don't you go upstairs and change, and then we'll leave," said Landon. Jamie nodded and headed slowly upstairs to change.
When they got to the doctor's office, they were nervous. They sat in the waiting room for a few minutes and waited for the doctor to call them in. Both Landon and Jamie were anxious. Finally, after what seemed like forever, the doctor called them in. They held hands and sat down in the chairs next to the doctor's desk. Jamie put on a gown and got up on the table. Landon stood next to her and held her hand. The doctor examined her as Landon and Jamie watched the screen. "Would you like to know the sex?" asked the doctor. Landon and Jamie looked at each other for a minute and answered "yes." The doctor looked at the screen again to tell them. "That's odd," said the doctor, examining the screen more closely. "Is something wrong?" asked Landon, seeing the worried look on Jamie's face. "Nothing's wrong, except you are going to have twins," said the doctor. Pointing to the screen, he said, "a boy, and a girl." Landon smiled and kissed Jamie.
After leaving the doctors office, Landon called his mom and dad in the car and told them they wanted to meet them for lunch because they had some news. Walking into the restaurant, Landon' s mother spotted him and Jamie sitting at a booth waiting for them. Landon saw them coming in and waved them over to the table. "So what's the news?" asked Landon's mother. Landon looked at Jamie. "Do you want to tell them, or do you want me to?" "You can tell them," said Jamie. "Tell us what?" said Landon's father. "We're going to have twins," he said, smiling. "A boy, and a girl," added Jamie.
Landon's mother and father were ecstatic. "That's so great I can't believe it!" said Landon's mother. "Congratulations," said Landon's father. "We were thinking of going over to the baby store and then decorating the room later this afternoon. Would you like to help us?" asked Jamie. "We would love to," said Landon's mother. "So, have you decided on names for the babies yet?" asked Landon's father. Before Jamie or Landon could answer, the waiter came over to take their order. After the waiter took their orders and their menus, he walked away, and Jamie answered, "The boy is going to be William Andrew Carter, and the girl is Emily Aurora Carter." "Those are beautiful names, said Landon's mother. "Have you decided on a theme for the baby's room, or are you just doing specific colors?" asked Landon's mother. "Well we haven't really talked much about the room, since we just found out," said Landon, "but we thought you might have an idea." "Hmm...I don't know, what do you think?" asked Landon's mother. Just as Jamie was about to bring up an idea, the waiter came with their food. After the waiter had left the table, Jamie said, "How about bunnies?" Landon thought for a minute and replied, "That sounds great, bunnies are so cute." Jamie giggled. "Well I thought of it because that's what I had in my room when I was a baby," she said. "Would you like me to make you a quilt?" asked Landon's mother. "Oh, that would be so nice of you!" said Jamie.
They ate their food and then headed across the way to look at themes, their tentatively decided one being bunnies. As they walked up and down the aisles, they looked at all the cute toys and blankets. "Don't you just want to take them all home?" laughed Landon's mother. After picking out the simple things like bottles, diapers, and burp rags, they headed over to the more fun stuff: furniture. Jamie found a nice white crib. "What do you think of this one Landon?" asked Jamie, pointing to the crib. "Is that what you want?" asked Landon. Jamie nodded, "If you like it." "If that's what you want then that's fine with me. I just want you to be happy, whatever you want," said Landon. Landon and his dad picked up two of the large boxes and put them in the cart. "Why don't we take these to the car and you can look for bedding?" asked Landon. Jamie nodded. Jamie and Landon's mother headed over to look at bedding for the crib. After looking around for a while, Jamie saw exactly what she wanted. It was blue, with two bunnies sitting together. One bunny had a blue ribbon around its neck, and the other, a pink ribbon. "Jamie, I think this would be perfect," said Landon's mom.
Just about that time, Landon and his dad came back and found Jamie looking at bedding. "What do you think of this Landon?" asked Jamie. "It's perfect," said Landon, smiling.
