That afternoon, Catherine and her baby brother were having their afternoon so that gave Bless time to spend with Isabella. Drew in the meantime was working out downstairs in their newly renovated state of the art gym with a wrestling ring in the middle of the room he and the guys put together. He, the guys, and Bless decided which would be good to put together to work out in instead of traveling on the road to the gym and pay a membership just to work out. Drew had some new equipment he bought and some borrowed from the guys since they were pretty much letting Drew have what they didn't need. Bless got some stuff as well after moving into the five-bedroom home they had and they thought it would be better to get a bigger home not only for them but also they would need room for the kids and when they had guests come over like Heath & his family, Stu, PJ, Stephen, or any of their family came over.
While Bless was feeding Isabella her bottle, she heard the phone ring. She slowly got up with the baby in her arms to check who would be calling her. She looked down at her cell phone to see it was Steph.
BlessGalloway: Hey Steph. How are you?
MrsLevesque: Hey Bless. I'm good. How are you? Hope all is well with you, Drew, and the kids. Just thought I'd let you know I'm going to be in town for a conference meeting next Friday at twelve in the afternoon for NXT and thought I would see if you had a free day plan a day before just to catch up and have coffee.
BlessGalloway: Actually next Friday sounds good. I'll have to free up my schedule and call one of the guys if they could watch the kids for a few hours that way we could catch up. It's been a while I haven't been out since I've been busy with work and spending time with the hubby and kids.
MrsLevesque: I know how that is how busy our schedules can be especially when on the road. I thought since I know you and Drew live close by, I would give you a buzz to see if you wanted to do some girly bonding. We could use a break once in a while and have some girl time.
BlessGalloway:I agree. I feel like I need a break from stuff here at home and with work. It's been so long since we haven't hung out. The last I remember we visited you guys when your family had a barbecue together. Catherine and Alex were still babies at the time. They enjoyed spending time with the girls.
MrsLevesque: They did and the girls miss Catherine and Alex so we'll have to arrange a play date for them some time soon.
BlessGalloway: That'll be fun while us grownups bond.
MrsLevesque: I don't want to take your time away from you just in case you're busy. I can just call you maybe before next Friday when I land.
BlessGalloway: It's fine Steph. I'm just feeding Bella since she got hungry for a bottle while the kids are napping so I have time for my little one right now. I can pick you up at the airport if you want once you get in. I know a great coffee shop we can meet up which isn't too far from here and do a little shopping.
MrsLevesque: Oh Bless, you don't have to go out of your way to do that. I can catch a cab out to your place.
BlessGalloway: It's alright Steph. I'll come pick you up when we go out to the coffee shop. Just let me know when you get here and I'll get you at the arrival area.
MrsLevesque: I'll make sure to do so. Have a good day sweetie.
After the girls talked, Bless started patting Isabella's back after she had been fed. "That's a good girl." The young mom giggled when she heard her daughter beard and cleaned her up with the wipe cloth.
"You ready for bed baby boo?" The baby looked up at her cooing softly.
"Yeah I think you're ready for bed princess." Bless smiled getting up from the couch putting the little girl in her chair swing while covering her up with her blanket.
A few minutes later, Drew walked in shirtless with a towel wrapped around his neck. "Hey baby. Who was on the phone I heard you talking to?" The Scot asked his wife who she had been on the phone hearing her talk to someone.
The young bride faced her hubby while she was sitting next to their daughter watching her sleep for a little bit.
"That was just Steph. She has a conference coming up Friday and will be here in town the day before the event so we'll likely hang out and catch up at the coffee shop nearby."
"Sounds like fun. So it's just a girls day out?" He asked with a smile seeing their baby girl falling asleep in her little swing.
She nodded. "Yup. Pretty much like that."
Once the baby was fast asleep, Bless smiled and so did Drew. "Do you want me to take her up to the nursery?" The Scot asked his wife softly nodding to their youngest.
"If you want to baby. I have to go check on Catty before I give her some medicine."
Drew got Isabella who whimpered softly. "Shhhh…. It's okay love. I got you." He let the baby know rubbing her back while Bless went to go check on Catherine to see her in bed snuggled with her stuffed puppy "Cubby". She put her hand to Cat's face to see if she still felt warm so she grabbed the medicine and cup that way she could give her daughter her medicine.
She walked back over to wake Catherine. "Baby, wake up." Bless whispered softly to Catherine kissing her forehead.
"Catherine, anak (my child), wake up sweet baby." The mother smiled as she stroked her daughter's little curls back.
The little girl stirred a little when she heard her mother's voice.
"Baby, wake up. Medicine time." Her mother told her as Cat started to stir slowly and carefully opening her eyes adjusting her surroundings and smiled softly when she seen her mom.
"Hi mama."
"Hey sweetheart. I'm sorry to wake you up from your beauty sleep but you need to take your medicine then you could go back to sleep, okay?"
Catherine nodded sitting up a bit in bed as Bless poured the medicine in the cup before handing it to her baby girl.
"Yucky." The little girl made a face after drinking it.
Bless giggled watching Catherine's reaction. "I know it's yucky but it'll help you to feel better." Bless then put the medicine and cup on the table after Cat was done drinking it.
"You can go back to sleep if you want baby. You need your rest to get better." The young mom tucked in her little girl and kissed her forehead.
"Mama stay till I fall asleep?" The little toddler requested her mom stay till she fell back asleep.
Bless nodded and did stay with her little girl humming a soft lullaby to her.
Once the little one was out like a light, the young mother turned on the night light and grabbed the medicine from the table including the measuring cup to bring back to the bathroom.
Walking out of the room, she made sure to leave the door half way open just in case Cat would need her or Drew later on in the middle of the night.
"How is our little girl?" Drew asked as he had Alex on his shoulder patting his back. Bless must of suspected Alex had a bad dream and wanted his daddy and Drew was now cuddling him to keep him safe.
"She's asleep. I gave her the rest of her medicine and she's out like a light so hopefully with a little more rest, her fever will go down. She felt a little warm when I checked in on her. Hopefully the medication will be effective."
"Hopefully it will." Drew agreed with his bride.
"Did Alex wake up?" Bless asked walking over to her hubby and son giving the little boy a kiss on the head as he was being cradled by her husband.
Drew nodded patting Alex's back. "He had a bad dream so I went in and checked in on him. He seems to be okay now and went calm as soon as I scooped him up."
"Poor baby. At least he knows we're here with him." Bless reached to slide some of Alex's hair and push it gently behind his ear causing the little boy to whimper softly.
"It's okay sweetheart. I'm right here and so is daddy." Bless told Alex as she combed his hair back gently.
"Shhhhh…we're right here little lad. You're okay." The Scot reassured their son know in a soft tone patting his back.
After Alex fell asleep, Drew and Bless put him back to bed.
Since all the kids were fast asleep, the young couple had time to themselves to spend some time together.
"Now that our kids are all asleep, I think we deserve some time together." The Scot smirked at his wife before softly kissing her.
Bless giggled in between his lips. "Sounds like heaven."
Drew chuckled softly gathering his bride in his arms bringing them to their room to have some time to themselves.
