"Mommy!" Jasmyne yelled from downstairs. Krystal got up and swayed. If it's one thing I hate about being pregnant...It's this gigantic belly. But it's okay...3 more months. she thoguht as she walked down the stairs. "What baby girl?" "There's someone at the door." Jasmyne said, stepping back and looking up at Krystal. "Who is it?" Krystal asked,peeking through the curtains and smiling. "It's me." Jasmyne's face lit up. "UNCLE RANDY!" Jasmyne screamed,jumping up and down. Kyrstal laughed and opened the door. Jasmyne almost knocked Randy over when she pounced on him. "Uncle Randy?" "Yes Jasmyne?" "Did you get me a present?" Jasmyne asked,looking up at Randy,eyes shining. "Maybe I did...Then again maybe I didn't." Randy said,bending down and picking Jasmyne up. "Krystal, there's more of you..." Randy said,smirking slyly, causing Jasmyne to giggle. "Oh Randy shut up." Krystal said,slapping Randy in the back of his neck. "So did you get me anything Uncle Randy?" Jasmyne asked,rubbing Randy's neck and messing up his hair. "Yeah I got you something Jas." Randy said,putting her down. "Where is it? Where is it?' Jasmyne asked,jumping up and down. "In my car,in my car." Randy said,mocking the 4 year old. Jasmyne pouted and looked innocently up at Randy. Randy smiled,kissed Jasmyne on her cheek and went out to his car. Krystal and Jasmyne watched him,when the phone rang. "Jas,you stay here and wait for Uncle Randy okay?" Jasmyne nodded and sat outside in the graas. Krystal went to get the phone. "Hello?" "Hey babe. "Hey baby." "How's Jasmyne?" Dave asked. "She's fine. Actually,she's sitting in the grass out front waiting for a present from Randy." Krystal said,looking out the open front door. "He's going to spoil her rotten." Dave complained. "I know but let him. Anyway she's already spoiled rotten." Krystal said,smirking. "Yeah yeah...I know...I know. And baby?" "Yeah?" "Sorry I couldn't be home." Dave said apologetically. "It's okay. When exactly are you getting home?" "I don't know..but I WILL definately try to be home sometime tonight." Dave said. Krystal and Dave talked for a few more minutes then hung up. Krystal went outside to see Jasmyne sitting on the ground,covered in mud and Randy sitting inside his car watching her. "Baby girl? What exactly did Uncle Randy get you?" Jasmyne simply looked and said, "Shovel and a bucket." "Really?" Jasmyne nodded and went back to playing in the mud. "Jas? How and whay exactly are you covered in mud?" "I asked Uncle Randy it I could go swimming and he told me to dig a hole and he filled the hole with water and told me to 'enjoy'." Jasmyne said, splashing around in the mud. Krystal smiled and walked over to Randy's car and knocked on the window. Randy looked at her and shook his head. Krystal walked back over to Jasmyne and the mud and bent and got a handful of mud and asked Jasmyne, "You mind if I borrow some of this?" Jas shook her head and kept on splashing in the mud. Krystal walked over to Randy's car and wrote in mud on the window: Enjoy. and walked away,smiling. Randy looked at her and got out of his car. "Krystal," Randy whined, "I just got my car cleaned yesterday!" Krystal and Jas laughed and Randy couldn't but laugh. Randy looked at his watch. "Well, I gotta get going." Randy said,looking from Krystal to Jasmyne. Jasmyne got out of the mud and ran to Randy. Jasmyne clung to Randy's leg and looked up at him. "I don't want you to go Uncle Randy." Jas said,still clinging to his leg. "I gotta go. Okay Short Stuff?" Jas nodded and let go of his leg. Randy hugged Jasmyne and told her that if she was good he would come back and take her out for ice cream. Randy hugged Krystal and said his good byes and that he'd see her and Jas later. Randy got in his car and left. Krystal looked down at Jas and said, "Bath." Jas ran inside,squealing and screaming. "You had better be ready to take your bath when I get up there." Krystal called inside the house. She sat on the swing on the front porch for about 10 minutes. Krystal got up and went inside to give Jas her bath. 20 dripping wet minutes later, Jas was in her pink "Princess" pj's and Krystal was in her "World's Best Mom" shirt that Jas and Dave got her for Mother's Day last year. They were both curled up in the bed,watching tv. "Mommy,is Daddy coming home yet?" Jas asked after a while. "Hopefully..." Krystal said,looking down at Jas. She nodded and looked back at the tv. "Jas honey?" "Yes Mommy?" "You sleepy?" "Alittle." Jas said,yawning. She laid her head on Dave's pillow and went to sleep. Krystal was drifting off to sleep,when she heard Dav'e voice in the hallway,talking to himself. Dave finally came in the door and looked at Jas asleep on his pillow and Krystal falling asleep. "Ah. My two favorite women in the world." he said,smiling. "And my favorite man in the world has returned home to me." Krystal said,yawning between every other word. Dave smiled and sat on the bed. "Should we wake Jas up?" Krystal asked,sitting up slightly. "Nah..She'll see when she wakes up." Dave said,lifting Jas up and going to take her into her room. Dave came back and laid his head on his pillow facing Krystal. "I missed you." Dave said,softly kissing her lips and smiling. Krystal looked at him,eyes watering. "I missed you too." Krystal said,beginning to cry. "Why the crying eyes?" Dave asked,wiping the tears out of her eyes with his thumb. Krystal just shook her head and rubbed her cheek against his hand. "I can't wait for the baby to be born." Dave said,moving pices of hair out of Krystal's face. Krystal nodded and asked, "Do you want a boy or a girl?" Dave looked at her and smiled. "It doesn't matter to me. As long as it's healthy,it doens't matter to me." Krystal began to cry again. "That's very sweet." Krystal said,trying tro stop crying. Dave looked at her. "Maybe we should get some sleep." Krystal nodded and laid her head on his chest and fell fast asleep. Dave watched her sleep until he himself fell asleep.
