Chapter Thirty Two

Jessica woke up early. Today was Randy James and Rebecca Jade's fourth birthday. She had so much to do. Angela was bringing over sandwiches and Vickie was making stuff too. Manda and Katie were doing the decorations and Jessica, being almost due, had to just watch everyone. She groaned and got dressed.

When she got downstairs she started on getting everything out of the way, so the kids could play and not break anything. Shortly after Randy got up to help.

"It's quiet. Where are the twins."

Jessica laughed. "Do you not remember? After dinner last night Aimee and Rebecca declared sleep over at Johnny's and Manda took them."

"Ahhh...yeah. Not enough sleep." Randy said walking over to her and resting his hand on her bump. "And how are you this morning?" He asked.

Jesse smiled. "He's fine."

"He!" Randy said eyeing her.

"I've gotten into this habit of calling the baby he...I have no idea why."

"So, he's a boy?"

"I don't know for sure. We'll have to wait."

"Damn." Randy said.

The morning was flying by and before they knew it Manda was there with Katie ready to decorate. As they hung banners and balloons, Angela arrived with the food followed by Vickie with more. Everything was going well.

Once everything was ready Manda went home to get the kids ready and Randy went to collect the twins. He got them dressed and then let them lose.

"I GOT AN EDDIE YESTERDAY DADDY!" RJ said very loudly.

"Wow! That's awesome." Randy said as they watched the twins open the bikes they had got them.

Rebecca's was pink and purple with silver streamers. RJ's was green and black. Soon after all their little friends from day care started arriving. Jessica took a breathe and prepared herself for the next few hours. It turned out to not be as bad as she had thought it would be. The kids were pretty well behaved and Randy did most of the hard work. At the end of the night, the twins were fast asleep, Randy had cleaned up everything and now they were relaxing on the couch.

"Today went better than I thought." Jessica said smiling.

"The twins had fun. Got it all on tape too."

"They did. It a shame we were missing a person, but I'm sure he was here."

"He was here Jess. He was standing in a corner watching them."

"I think so."

"So, we haven't discussed names." Randy said.

"I know. I'd rather wait. I don't know what we're having so..."

"We'll wait." Randy smiled. "But, I think he's a boy."

Jessica laughed. "We don't have long to wait." She smiled.

In her mind she knew she was having a boy though and she had the perfect name for him.
