Our Lovely Baby Bump
“Charlie remembered how adamant Angel was when picking the house and when she was going through the nesting period of trying to make everything perfect before the baby came. She pressed her hand against her stomach and rubbed it, as the three minutes that needed to tick by seemed to take forever.

The only sound came from Lucas who sat in a bouncy thing hanging from the ceiling beam. His chubby legs made it bounce as he babbled and chewed on a teething toy.
Charlie looked over at him. The front of his shirt was covered in drool, and she smiled. Angel said he hated bibs, but he was teething so he was drooling like the alien from the Sigourney Weaver movies. She wanted her baby so badly that it ached on the inside. She would be so disappointed if she wasn’t. Charlie felt tears threaten at the thought. She wanted to hold her baby, clean up drool, and nurse.
