The next few months flew by as Bobby and Allie were both working. But Bobby had planned a romantic weekend away for the two of them. He wanted them to spend time together and maybe talk about a baby.
That Friday, they left for The Inn at Dos Brisas in Washington, Texas. He had book them a hacienda with a private pool. "I hope you enjoy this weekend." He said as they drove toward the Inn.
"I hope we enjoy it." She smiled. "This is going to be a great, romantic weekend." She leaned over and kissed him.
"So, Allie went away for the weekend?" Phil asked Brianne as they were having dinner. He and Julia came over to have dinner with Brianne and Chris and he thought, Allie and Bobby.
"Yep. She and Bobby have been working so much later, that they wanted some time away. So, they went to this romantic inn."
Phil nodded. "He really wants a baby doesn't he?"
Brianne looked at her brother. "What? What baby?"
"Come on, Brianne. Isn't it obvious that they went away so, they could get pregnant? Bobby, obviously, wants a baby even though Allie said they were waiting."
She shooked her head. "I don't know about that. Allie said they both agreed to wait. And this is their business, not ours." She looked at him. "So, drop it."
"Fine. I'm just trying to keep our sister from ruining her life."
"How can a baby ruin her life? That makes no sense." She sighed. "Phil, just let Allie live her life. No matter how much you hate her husband."
"Fine." He said as they went back eating. Brianne hoped Phil would eventually come around to like Bobby.
Allie smiled as they pulled up to the inn. "This looks amazing." She said to him.
"I think this will be a great weekend." He said as he turned the car off and got out of the car. He walked over and opened the door for her. Once he had, he got their luggage and they headed in.
They were soon shown to their hacienda. "Oh my gosh, this is amazing." She said when she saw the outside. "We have a private pool." She turned to her husband and walked over to him. "We have all this privacy." She wrapped her arms around his neck. "Now, what did you have in mind?" She smiled and kissed him. They were soon in the bedroom.
"Allie, there is something I wanted to talk to you about." He said as they laid there.
"Alright. What's on your mind?" She asked as she moved to look at him.
"I hoped we could talk about having a baby."
"Really? You want a baby?"
"I do." He looked at her. "I'm not rushing us. I was just bringing it up."
She smiled. "I was thinking too. And I don't want us to wait to have a baby. Let's try for one." She leaned in and kissed him. "Let's start now." She kissed him again and they were soon making love.
The weekend flew by and they were soon back to the normal routine of their daily life. Allie smiled as she walked into the restaurant to meet her sister for lunch.
"Hey, how are you?" Brianne said when Allie walked up.
"I'm good." Allie smiled. "The weekend was amazing."
"I bet." Brianne smiled. "Chris and I love the Inn."
"It was amazing. We have a private hacienda. It was so romantic."
Brianne laughed. "I bet you got pregnant."
"What?" Allie asked. "Why would you say that?"
"Because it was a romantic weekend."
Allie laughed. "Well, Bobby and I talked about a baby and we decided to try for one."
"That's great." Brianne smiled and hugged her. "I can't wait to be an auntie."
Allie laughed. "I'm sure Julia and Phil will be having one soon."
"I'm sure they will." She replied. "But I bet you will have one first."
"I hope so." Allie smiled.
"I know so," Brianne said as the waiter took their order. Allie hoped Brianne was right. She couldn't wait to be a mom.
After lunch and shopping with Brianne, Allie headed home. She had gone by the pharmacy and got some ovulation kits. She wanted to make sure she knew the perfect time for them to try for a baby.
The next week, everyone went to Greta's for Christmas dinner. "I'm glad you guys could come for dinner," Greta said as the girls were in the kitchen and the guys were watching a football game.
"Of course we would never miss Christmas," Brianne replied.
"So, does anyone have news?" Greta smiled. "Is one of my children going to make me a grandma?"
"Well, actually, Phil and I are expecting," Julia answered with a smile.
"That's wonderful," Greta replied and hugged her. "My first grandchild."
"Congratulations." Brianne smiled.
"Congratulations. That's wonderful news." Allie smiled and hugged Julia.
"Thanks." She smiled. "We are very excited."
"I couldn't be happier. Now lets' finish this up and get some food in those guys."
Chris looked at Phil and Bobby as they were watching the game. "So, Bobby, how was the weekend away a few weeks ago?"
"It was great. Allie and I had a great time." He replied.
"Good. I knew you would. The Inn is amazing." Chris replied. He looked to Phil. He was stuck in the middle and it was obvious that Phil disliked Bobby a lot. "So, Phil whats up with you lately?"
"Well, Julia and I are having a baby," Phil replied.
"That's great," Chris replied. "I'm happy for you."
"I second that," Bobby added. "Congratulations."
"Thanks," Phil replied. "We are excited."
"Guys, it's dinner is ready," Greta said from the dining room.
Everyone was soon around the table and enjoying the Christmas dinner. Greta was relieved that everything went smoothly. She knew her son didn't like Allie's husband but she was glad he made the effort to be polite.
