9am
I wake up from a deep and peaceful sleep. I sit up in my spot, my hair is muddled and the room shines because the sunlight hits the walls through the balcony curtain. I place a hand on my stomach and breathe in. Today's the day.

Tobias isn't next to me and I can hear humming and sizzling coming from downstairs. I get up and walk over towards the staircase just outside the bedroom door. The smell of bacon and eggs wafts up my nose, causing my mouth to water.

I move swiftly towards the kitchen. Tobias turns and sees me, a wide smile spreading across his face.

"Hello beautiful" he says.

"Hey" I giggle as my cheeks turn red, "what are you up to there young man?"

"Cooking my lady and baby some breakfast before we head out today" he says walking over to me, placing a kiss on my lips while placing a gentle hand onto my stomach.

He gets down onto his knees and lifts up my shirt, placing his lips to my warm skin.

"Hello little one. I love you so very much and so does your mother. Can't wait to see and hear you today. We can't wait to hold you in our arms" he whispers placing another kiss to my stomach. I tiny feet patter against my stomach.

He stands up and kisses me, as he takes my hand and walks me towards the dining room table, pulling out the chair for me so I can sit down. I smile at him as he walks back into the kitchen.

About 5 minutes later he comes back in with 2 plates of eggs, bacon and toast. He places it in front of me and sits down. It smells great!

"Thanks babe!" I say picking up my knife and fork, beginning to eat.

"How are you feeling?" Tobias asks. I nod my head,

"I'm doing okay. This ones not giving me too much trouble" I say pointing to my stomach. He nods.

"I love you more than you can imagine and I need you to know that I will be by your side through everything because your my wife and I love you so much." He smiles.

I reach over and hug him tightly, breathing in his scent.

"I love you too" I muffle against his shirt.

1pm// Doctors

Tobias and I arrive at the doctors. We are currently sitting in the waiting room, waiting for Sheridan, my doctor, to call out my name.

As I wait, I take deep breaths to keep me calm. My nails are bitten to the beds, dried blood surrounds the nail. My legs are bumping up and down, while I anxiously think about the baby.

"Hey, calm down. Everything going to be fine" Tobias says grabbing my hand and holding it.

"What if there is more than one baby?" I say worriedly.

"We will make it through this okay? I love you so much" he reassures me with a warm smile.

"I love you too" I smile back. Sheridans office door opens and she walks out.

"Beatrice Prior" she sings out. I look at Tobias and stand up with him, we begin to walk towards her.

"Hello Beatrice and Tobias, just follow me and I will lead you towards the ultrasound room where I will be examining the heartbeat, sex and number of your baby today" she smiles.

We walk down the hallway hand-in-hand towards a dark room with a bed, heart monitor and several screens. I place myself upon the bed, laying back.

"Okay Beatrice, I will just lift up your shirt, and squirt some gel that will be very cold on your skin, then I will place this remote onto your stomach" she says showing me the remote, "and you will feel me push a little bit around your abdomen."

I nod my head and clasp my hand with Tobias' who is sitting right beside me. I lift up my shirt and feel the gel spread across my stomach. I chuckle a little because it feels so cold. She places the remote onto my stomach moving and pushing it around a bit, then the magic happens.

"There is your baby." She smiles. I sit up onto my elbows and gasp. My little baby is on the digital screen. It's arms and legs are small, waving around a little bit.

"That's out baby!" I laugh as tears spring into my eyes. I turn towards Tobias, tears are falling from his face.

"Congratulations, you are having a baby girl." Sheridan says.

"Omg!" I smile widely. Tobias leans over and kisses my temple, smiling widely. Sheridan clicks a couple buttons and places another remote onto my stomach.

Boom boom. Boom boom. The baby's heartbeat fills the room. I lay back and listen to the soft rhythm of my little girl inside of me.

Today is the best day of my life. I am having a healthy, happy baby girl with my loving and wonderful husband. Hearing her heartbeat makes my heart skip a beat. She is my dream. He is my dream. Nothing in the world will ever separate our little family.
