Feeling nervous as she pushed herself out of bed that morning, Gabi rubbed her now five month pregnant belly before walking over to the bathroom. Doing her business, she walked back out before watching her husband sleep. His soft snores came from underneath the comforter.
Smiling, she got ready for the day deciding to let him sleep. He had declared that he took the day off due to their sonogram was that very day and they had decided that they wanted to know what the sex of the baby was. Gabi had called it boy while Troy was dead set on it being a girl.
Walking downstairs, she quickly made herself some oatmeal before sitting at the table and devouring it. The baby decided to make its presence known and started kicking half way through Gabi's breakfast.
"Good morning baby . . ." And rubbing her belly like always, the baby calmed down enough for Gabi to finish eating.
Placing her dishes in the sink, Gabi flipped on the radio before heading into the living room to wait for her husband to wake up. Trying to read a magazine, Gabi soon discovered she was unsuccessful. Smirking, an idea came to her mind.
She's got a baby inside
And holds her belly tight
All through the night
Walking back upstairs, Gabi crept, as best as she could, across the bed. Laying her head on Troy's chest, her fingers wiggles at his sides successfully waking him up.
"Good morning, husband." Gabi shouted energetically while Troy mumbled incoherently.
"Good . . ." Yawning Troy didn't finish his sentence as Gabi giggled.
Shaking his head he kissed Gabi's lips before lifting her maternity top up and placing several kisses on her round belly. Gabi giggled while watching him interact with the baby.
"How's my girl doing this morning?" Troy asked looking up at his wife.
"Well I'm doing quite well. The baby's been moving all morning . . . I don't think it can get comfortable."
His eyes narrowed at her calling the baby an it. That was the main reason they were finding out the sex. Besides Gabi wanted the nursery done perfectly and it was a little hard to do with the sex unknown.
"Well that's good . . ." Placing another kiss on her lips, he felt her relax against him.
"You need to get up and get ready." Gabi patted his arm before smiling.
"I have plenty of time . . ." He trailed off before putting another kiss on the top of her head.
Letting her eyes trail over to the clock, she shook her head. "Our appointment is at 10 and currently its 9:15. You need to get your cute butt outta bed and get into the shower. Chop chop Bolton . . ."
Rolling out of bed, Gabi attempted to stand before cussing her pregnant body. Getting a gentle push from Troy caused her to stand up right again and she sent him a thankful smile. "Get going Bolton."
Walking downstairs, she let Duke out in the backyard to play for a while before starting to fix Troy his cereal. Cleaning up the kitchen a little more, Gabi waited until she heard the shower before returning to her work.
Just so she knows
She's sleeping so
Safely to keep
Her growing
Ten minutes later he came down the stairs dressed in a pair of khakis and one of his striped polo shirts. Flashing him a smile, she poured him a cup of coffee before setting it on the counter.
"What's the agenda looking like today, Mrs. Bolton?" Troy asked between bites of cereal and drinks of coffee.
Looking at the calendar and seeing the day wide open, she shrugged. "I guess what ever we want to do."
"How about after the sonogram, we go to the restaurant and hang out with our friends for a little then see where the rest of the day goes?"
Nodding her head, she leaned forward to kiss his lips before pulling back. "Sounds good to me."
"Good . . . let me finish and we'll be all set." Giving her another kiss, he left the room without another word.
Slipping on a pair of matching shoes, Gabi grabbed her purse before waiting patiently by the bottom of the stairs. Petting Duke, she blew him a kiss before linking fingers with Troy before the duo left the house.
Helping his wife into the car, Troy gave her a quick kiss before jogging over to the other side. Once buckled up, he started the car before starting the adventure to the doctor's office.
Oh when she'll open her eyes
There'll be no surprise
"How's your name list going?" Looking over at her, he caught himself getting her contagious smile on his face.
"It's going . . . I just have to add a couple of more then it'll be complete."
They had agreed to each write down twelve names each, six girls and six boys then together they'd agree upon a couple of suitable names for their daughter or son. Today however, one set of names would be saved for the next pregnancy, letting them focus on the particular set necessary.
"You excited?" Gabi's question caused him to take his eyes off the road for a second before grinning.
"Sure am . . . these sonograms seem so surreal that it's like I have to pinch myself that you're carrying our child."
"If he/she wasn't kicking everyday, I'd forget too. But in four short months, our daughter or son is going to join us in the world and we'll be parents."
"Yes we will." Rubbing his finger over her knuckles, he turned into the clinic before parking.
Walking hand in hand into the clinic, Gabi quickly checked in before taking a seat with Troy.
She'll grow to be
so beautifully
Watching his knee bounce up and down with ever breath he took caused Gabi to giggle. Placing a gentle hand on his knee, she looked over at him. "Will you calm the hell down?"
"I can't help it . . ." Putting down the magazine, he looked at her. "Aren't you nervous?"
Shaking her head, she went back to her article. "No because I'll be happy no matter what the sex reveals."
Before he knew it, he felt the magazine go across his arm. Clutching the injured location, he looked at his wife with amazement. "Why did you do that?"
"Because you won't calm the hell down. Just take a breath and don't worry . . . it's not like anything bad is going to come out of this. It's either boy or girl . . ."
And with another roll of her eyes, she returned to her reading until her name was called.
Following the nurse back, Gabi grinned as the nurse pointed to the correct room. "Dr. Richmond will be in shortly to see you."
Sighing loudly, Gabi looked around the room before settling her eyes on Troy. "I love you."
"I love you too baby."
And a few minutes later, the door was open to reveal Gabi's doctor. With a bright smile on her face, Dr. Richmond greeted Gabi and Troy.
"Good morning you two. How's everything going?"
"As good as it can be. No complaints." Dr. Richmond nodded before smiling.
"How's morning sickness going?"
Shrugging, Gabi smiled. "It's gone."
The doctor nodded before making a mark on the chart. "Any other complaints?"
"None that I can think of."
"That's good . . . Gabi lie back and we'll check this baby of yours." Warming of the machine, she looked over at the couple. "Do you want to know the sex today?"
Gabi looked over at Troy as he nodded. "Yes we do . . ."
"As long as your little one is cooperating then we'll be able to see."
Moving the wand around Gabi's expanding stomach, Doctor Richmond smiled at what she saw. "Everything looks good Gabi. Now as for the sex of the baby . . ."
"It's a . . ."

She's beauty

11:00 am
Clutching the sonogram pictures, Gabi and Troy left the clinic happier than they were when they went in. Getting into the car, their next journey led them right to the restaurant.
Listening to the bell ring as they walked through the door, they felt several pairs of eyes land on them. Grinning happily, Troy and Gabi walked over to the bar where Kelsi, Jason, Chad, and Taylor were standing.
"Hey guys!" Taylor and Kelsi exclaimed excitedly before hugging the couple.
The girls' chit chatted excitedly before noticing the piece of paper Gabi was clutching. "Whatcha got there Gabs?"
Looking over at her husband, Gabi tried to keep the smile off her face but was unsuccessful. "Just a little something . . ."
Kelsi and Taylor traded looks before Taylor gasped loudly. "You had a sonogram appointment today didn't you?"
Nodding a little, Gabi smiled. "Yeah we did."
"And?"
Oh Capri
She's Beauty
there is an angle growing peacefully
Oh Capri
Sweet Baby
Looking up at Kelsi and Taylor, Troy had to keep the chuckle that was dying to escape locked in. Shrugging his shoulders, he let his wife handle the questions.
"Gabriella Elisabeth Bolton . . ." Dragging out her full name, Gabi cringed knowing she was in trouble.
"What's going on in here?" Throwing open the door, Sharpay stuck her head into the restaurant before revealing Zeke trailing behind her. Ryan and Lauren slipped into the restaurant behind the louder couple.
"Our friends are being dumb butts . . ." Taylor muttered looking over at the couple.
"Why?"
"They had a sonogram today and they won't tell us how it went."
Rolling her eyes, Sharpay threw her blonde hair over her shoulder before sitting down and looking at Gabi suspiciously. "Come on Gabs, you know you wanna tell us . . ."
Before she could mutter a word, the door was once again thrown open and in walked Troy's family. Rolling her eyes upward, Gabi urged not to shaking her head.
"Why is everyone looking suspicious?" Tess asked bouncing Nolan in her arms.
"Your brother and sister in law are hiding stuff from us." Sharpay rolled her eyes.
"Come on Troy, tell us." Drew even got involved tired of the girls complaining. Abby came up behind her husband and put an arm on his shoulder telling him to calm down.
"Is everyone here now?" Gabi asked walking over to where Troy was standing.
"The only ones missing are my parents and your mom." Troy said putting his hand on the small of her back.
Things will be hard at times
But I've learned to try
just listening
patiently
Oh Capri
Sweet Baby
"All right I guess we can tell you . . ." Gabi smiled dragging it out. "Troy and I did have an appointment today and we did find out what we're having."
"And?" The girls yelled as Troy and Gabi both smiled.
"And we're having a girl . . ."
The squeals and laughter could be heard clearly down the street. The friends and family of Gabi and Troy had something important to celebrate . . . the soon to be birth of a new little girl.
Oh Capri
She's Beauty
Baby inside she's loving
Oh Capri
you're beauty
Just like your mother
that's carrying
