Will said with a grin
Jay=the baby? What baby?
Will=your baby- at least I hope it's your baby bc if not that would cause some problems
Jay=wait are you saying she's pregnant
Will=yeah she is about 2 months
Jay=oh my God. I can't believe this we had been wanting to start a family I just didn't think this would happen so fast
Will=congratulations man I'm happy for you both
Jay=does she know she is pregnant
Will=I have no idea nobody at the hospital has said anything to her about so we don't know but she might have known on her own bc she is around two months
Jay=can I go see her
Will=yeah I'm sure you would live to talk to her
Will brought him to her room
Will=got a visitor
Erin looked up
Erin=hey babe

Jay=yeah it is
Erin=what's wrong with you
Jay=what do you mean
Erin=you look distracted like you are thinking of something else
Jay=did you know you were pregnant
Erin=what?
Jay=babe you're 2 months pregnant
Erin=are you serious- are you sure how do you know
Jay=Will told me
Erin=oh my God
Jay=did you know
Erin=no I mean I had morning sickness so I had a feeling but I brushed it off for the most part
Jay=well here we are
Erin=we're having a baby
Jay=a real baby
Erin=I can't believe this
Jay=well this is good news right
Erin=of course it is
Jay=I can't wait to tell Leah
Erin=I know she's going to be so happy
Jay=I just hope she doesn't get jealous
She chuckled
Erin=well we've clearly seen she's not the best at sharing attention
Jay laughed
Erin=so when can I go home
Jay=right now wills getting your discharge papers ready
Erin=great now we have figured out what to do about this baby
Jay=let's worry about that later right now you are the concern
Erin=I'm not a concern babe I'm fine

They finally got out the hospital and we're home
Erin=I'm so glad we're home
Jay=yeah
Erin=I can't believe I'm pregnant
Jay=I know I'm shocked
Erin=like even when I keep saying to myself "I'm pregnant it" doesn't feel real
Jay=I know but fortunately it is real so you need your rest
Erin=Jay
Jay=what babe you go rest okay I'm gonna go get Leah from preschool
Erin=I can't wait to see my baby I feel like it's been a year since I've seen her
Jay=she's gonna be so happy when we tell her she's getting a baby brother or sister
Erin=but what if she feels jealous
Jay=we will make sure we are giving her equal attention
Erin=yeah of course
Jay=alright I'll be back I'm going to go get her you need to rest
Erin=okay jay
She said annoyed
He left to go get Leah
Erin went and laid on the couch and turned the tv on
She did try to rest but all she could think about was her pregnancy she just couldn't believe it she was actually pregnant
Jay pulled up and Leah's preschool
Leah came running out
