AN: Thank you to all my reviewers for your kind words. I truly enjoy writing this story. A little trivia bout me: In the last chapter I used my daughter's weight, measurements and time of birth. I also used my birthday the 9th. She was my early birthday present because she was born on the 5th!

And for those who keep bugging me about when Bella will tell Edward I promise something will happen about that soon. ONTO THE NEXT CHAPTER!

Bella's POV:

2 weeks later:

I woke up to my alarm. After I turned it off I realized I had been holding the ultrasound picture in my hand all night long again. I smiled. Maybe that explained why I had that wonderful dream about playing with my little girl in the park. I ran my fingers over the photo and kissed it. Then I grabbed my clothes and headed into the bathroom for my shower.

After I had dried my hair and gotten dressed I went downstairs and found Charlie eating a bowl of cereal. Well, at least there was no threat of anything burning today.

He looked up from his paper and asked, "So what do we want to do about tomorrow?"

I looked at him confused.

"Didn't you remember tomorrow's Thanksgiving?" He asked.

Apparently the idea had passed me by.

"I don't know, did you have anything planned?" I asked as I grab a couple of granola bars from the cupboard.

"Well, I was thinking about the diner." He said.

'Oh please dear God, not the diner, not for thanksgiving!' I thought. I would rather have peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for thanksgiving than the diner. I wanted this one to be somewhat special for us since we were going through alot this year.

"But the diner will be closed tomorrow." He said

'Thank you GOD!'

"So I was thinking we'd call Billy and Jacob and see if they would like some company tomorrow." He finished his thought.

That actually sounded really nice.

"That sounds good." I said. "Give me a call about 12:30 today when I go to lunch and let me know what they say. If they say yes then after school I'll stop by here and grab some money and go buy some food. I just need to know what to get ok?"

"OK I can do that. But instead of having you waste the gas to come back out here how 'bout I give you the money now and you can pay me back by fixing me dinner every night for the next week?"

I smiled at him. "Dad, I fix you dinner every night. That doesn't sound very fair." I joked.

"Well would you rather wash the patrol car for a week?" He asked with a smile on his face.

"No, I'll cook for ya. It's easier and not as hard of work." I replied with a sarcastic grin.

Just then my phone rang. It was Angela.

"Hey Angela, what's up?" I asked.

"Hey Bella. I was wondering if I could borrow your history notes when we get to school. I was busy last night and forgot to write notes and there's that test today." She explained.

"Yeah sure. In fact I'm heading to school now. I'll meet you in the parking lot." I said as I stood up.

"Great see ya soon." She said as we hung up.

As I hung up I saw Charlie grab his wallet out of his back pocket and pull out 3 $20 bills and slide them towards me. I picked up the money and walked into the living room.

I turned to him as I got my coat and backpack from the coat rack by the door.

"So give me a call and let me know what they say ok?" I asked.

"Will do." he said as he walked over to refill his coffee cup.

I couldn't wait for the day when I could enjoy a hot cup of coffee again.

I got to school and gave Angela my notes to copy. At lunch I decided to sit by myself today. Sometimes I wanted my space and my friends understood that really well. I was glad of that.

I had just finished drinking my orange juice when my phone vibrated. I looked at the caller ID to see it was Charlie.

"Hey dad. So what did they say?" I asked as I pulled out my notebook to write down what I would need to buy.

"Hey Bells. They said they don't mind us coming over tomorrow. Billy said they would supply the turkey, stuffing and potatoes. All we gotta get is some olives, pickles, sweet potatoes and dinner rolls." He said.

I wrote down the items as he said them.

"OK, I'll go to the store after school and get the stuff." I told him.

"Good, I'll see ya later." he said. Then I heard the click of the phone hang up.

After school, true to my word, I went to the grocery store. I was glad I went when I did. I grabbed the last can of olives and last 2 cans of sweet poatoes.

After the store I went home. Charlie wasn't home from work yet so I decided to take a hot bath to relax my sore back.

Half an hour later I dried off and got dressed again. As I threw the towel in the basket I heard the front door open and close signaling Charlie was home.

I went downstairs to see what he wanted for dinner. We decided since I would be cooking tomorrow we were gonna order pizza tonight. After half a pizza and a football game I went up to bed.

The next morning I woke up around 9:00. I went downstairs to get some breakfast. I turned on the tv for the MACY'S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE. My mom and I would always sit in front of the tv watching it in our pajamas with chocolate milk and a bowl of cereal. (Living in Phoenix it was too hot for hot coca but my mom still wanted to make it as special as when SHE was a little girl. So I sat on the couch with a cup of hot cocoa and my bowl of cereal and watched the parade.

About half an hour later I heard Charlie come down the stairs.

"Ah, the parade huh? You and your mom still watch that together?" He asked.

"Yeah, we did every Thanksgiving." I said.

" You know, I remember having to fix you guys hot chocolate while you guys watched this." He said. I could hear the smile in his voice.

He had always joked that he was upset that we were making him miss his football game. But I always knew he had enjoyed watching the excitement on my face at each new float and balloon. And now I couldn't wait to sit and watch this with my daughter next year.

I realized at that moment that I had better be prepared if it was a boy. I knew I would find out in January, Dr. Bennett told me I would.

Charlie grabbed a cup of coffee and sat in his chair to watch the parade with me.

After the parade was over we got dressed and got the food into the car and drove over the Billy's.

As we pulled up Charlie honked the horn. Jacob came running out to the car.

As Charlie got the food out of the back of the car Jacob opened my door. As soon as I got out he gave me a huge hug.

"Happy Thanksgiving you guys." He said as he went to help Charlie carry in the food.

"Happy Thanksgiving Jacob." Charlie said.

Charlie and Billy watched the football game as Jacob and I fixed dinner. As we fixed dinner we talked about school, friends, and the baby. I even showed him the photo I had gotten from the doctor.

And the best part: He really listened.

I mean, my friends would listen. Jessica, Angela and Mike hung onto my every word when I was talking about the baby. Eric would kinda listen but that was what Eric was like Angela told me. But Jacob REALLY REALLY listened. He shared my excitement and happiness.

After dinner Billy and Charlie offered to clean the dishes while me and Jacob went out for a walk.

"So how's everything going for you?" I asked as we walked down the street.

"Good. I'm doing good in school and the rabbit is almost finished. Pretty soon I'll be driving to school instead of taking the bus." He said with a smile.

"Yeah, I had to ride the bus in Phoenix. I hated it." I say as I smile, then I got a bit confused, "Hang on, you picked me up in the rabbit that Saturday we hung out, I thought it was running fine now." I asked.

Jacob just chuckled and said, "It's an older car, it ALWAYS needs work."

After that we walked around just talking about different things for about an hour. Then it started to get cold so we walked back to his place.

When we got there the game was just finishing up. Seahawks had won much to Billy and Charlie's delight.

After we all had talked for a bit we decided to go home. Charlie headed out to start the car as I grabbed my coat.

As I headed out the door Jacob came and leaned in the doorway. "You know what I'm thankful for this year?" He asked.

"What?"

"For you. And the fact that I know you're going to be a great mom." He said with a smile.

I walked back and gave him a hug with tears in my eyes. 'Damn mood swings' I thought.

"Thanks Jake. I'll see ya soon." I said.

Then I heard Charlie honk the horn so I walked to the car waving as I went.

"So you and Jake getting close I see?" Charlie said.

"Dad, he's just being the support I need." I said with a smile.

I already knew what he was thinking. Honestly, maybe he was thinking like I should be.

When we got home I realize that I was tired.

"Hey dad, I'm going to bed. Good night." I told him as he hung up our coats.

"Good night." He said as he walked in to turned on the TV. "Hey Bells, you want to go out to breakfast tomorrow since you don't have school and I don't have to report to the station til tomorrow afternoon?" He asked.

"That sounds great dad." I said with a smile. "Good night."

I got upstairs and changed into my pjs.

As I got into bed my phone rang from a text. It was from Jacob.

'I really meant what I said tonight. Happy thanksgiving.'

It put a big smile on my face.

I knew I was going to have to tell Edward soon. I decided I would call him this weekend and hopefully at least get his voicemail and tell him on there. If not then I'd call Alice. One way or another one of them HAD to have a voicemail. I knew Carlisle would because he's a doctor so if nothing else I would get ahold of him and let Edward know that way.

I laid my head on the pillow and fell asleep wondering what his reaction would be.

Hope you all enjoyed this Thanksgiving chapter as much as I enjoyed writing it. Just remember: PUSH THAT R&R BUTTON MY PEEPS!
