Rivercourt Rambles

Chapter 9

21 weeks so far. I had gained around 21 pounds. Being pregnant with the twins. I've had this much curve and boobs in my life and let me tell you. I've never felt more in touch with myself as a woman.

I'm feeling very sexy and comfortable in my skin in a way i never expected.

"For our Maternity shoot. It should be colorful. I think outside." Lucas announced. When he entered our bedroom.

"I love the idea of that. We signed up for childbirth classes."

"And I was thinking in the near future that we should have a babymoon." Brooke announced.

"What is that.?" Lucas asked.

"A babymoon is a short trip or vacation taken by a couple shortly before the birth of a child."

"How does that sound to you.?" Brooke questioned.

Lucas took her into his arms and kissed her gently.

"I love the idea of this. I didn't think you would be up too it. Are you sure.?" Lucas asked.

"I am. I say we can forget the child birth classes for now. Let's have the photoshoot then get going on this much needed adventure together."

"We haven't had quality one on one time in awhile now with the pregnancy and working our jobs."

"To get a break from all that is a must." Brooke stated matter of fact.

...

"We've decided on the names Bennet and Sloane." Brooke announced.

"Those are just perfect. Bennet and Sloane Scott. I'm glad you and my son are becoming closer then ever throughout this. A strong foundation when starting a family is important." Karen replied.

"I thought some mother/daughter bonding was in order especially since the genders are known now. It makes everything so real." Karen explained.

As the two walked around arm and arm.

Victoria Davis glared at the two. And rolled her eyes.

"Karen these boutiques are pricey. Wouldn't you be more comfortable at the Bargain Barn?" Victoria asked.

"I've run my cafe successfully for years now. So i'm well aware what i can spend. This day is about Brooke. Since you lack in motherly everything and you've seem to have lost track of Ted."

"I would pay close attention to that. You know how he can be." Karen stated matter of fact.
