Kevin woke up to the bright morning sun peeking through the curtains in his room. He rolled over to see Sarah still fast asleep. Kevin carefully pulled the covers back over her and crept out of bed to make breakfast. He had just finished frying the bacon when he heard Sarah come into the kitchen.

"Good morning beautiful," he said as he set a plate down at the table and sat down. "Want some breakfast?"

"Ugh no food. I don't even wanna look at that stuff right now," Sarah said as she laid her head on the table.

"Morning sickness?"

Sarah nodded. "It's such a wonderful thing."

"It'll pass," Kevin said with a smile.

"Soon I hope," Sarah muttered. "I'm going to go get ready. I've got a ton of things to do today."

"Like what?" Kevin asked, while taking a bite from his bacon.

"Well, I have my doctor's appointment at noon. Kristin wants me to join her and Amanda on their daily walks and lamaze classes. It helps me get prepared for the baby."

"You don't want me to be your coach for lamaze?" he said, sounding hurt.

"Kevin you know I love you and all, but I just think I'd be more comfortable with another woman at my side. Besides with your busy schedule who knows if you'll be around when I go into labor. And with Kristin being in the medical field, she's perfect for the position."

"I guess," Kevin mumbled.

Sarah snickered and kissed Kevin on the cheek. "I'm going to get ready and go to my doctor's appointment."

"Can I come?"

"To my doctor's appointment?"

"Yeah, I wanna come. Can I?"

Sarah smiled in delight. "Of course you can come."

"Good," he said.

"I'll be out of the shower in a few minutes then you can take one."

"All right," Kevin said then kissed her.

Kevin finished his breakfast and put away the dishes while Sarah was in the shower. When she was finished Kevin got into the shower then got dressed for the doctor's appointment. When they were both ready to go the got into Kevin's car and headed out to the doctor's office. They waited in the waiting patiently for the nurse to call out Sarah's name. Kevin nervously picked up a magazine and flipped through it. He was bobbing his leg up and down when he felt Sarah set her hand on it.

"Honey why are you so nervous? It's just a doctor's appointment."

"Sorry I get nervous around doctors. Plus with this being my first child I don't know what to expect."

Sarah smiled and kissed him. "Relax."

"I'll try," he said as he went back to his magazine.

"Miss Putman?" a nurse called.

"That's me!" Kevin said as he jumped up. "I mean her.....sorry," he blushed.

Sarah laughed. "Don't mind him. He's a little high strung this morning."

"First child?" the nurse asked with a smile. Both Kevin and Sarah nodded. "Happens to all the fathers. Come with me," she said as she opened the door. Sarah and Kevin followed her down the hall to a small room. "Wait right here and the doctor will be right with you."

Sarah sat down on the table while Kevin sat in the chair by the wall. He looked around the room at all the equipment.

"Wow lots of neat stuff in here," he said as he knocked over a metal pan. "Whoops." He looked over at Sarah who was holding in her laughter.

"Kevin sit still and be quiet." Kevin did as he told then the doctor stepped in the room.

"Good afternoon Miss Putman I'm Dr. Stewert. I'll be your doctor."

"Nice to meet you Dr. Stewert. This is my boyfriend Kevin Richardson," she said while gesturing to him.

"Nice to meet you Mr. Richardson. How have you been feeling Miss Putman?"

"She's been great," Kevin answered.

The doctor eyed Kevin and nodded. "Uh huh I see. Have you've been having attacks of morning sickness?"

"Oh yeah lots of morning sickness," Kevin answered again.

"All right," Dr. Stewert said as he looked down at his clipboard.

"It says here you're about two months along is that correct?"

"Yeah that's right! Only seven months to go," Kevin beamed.

Dr. Stewert smiled and glanced over at Kevin. "Mr. Richardson who is having this baby? You or her?"

"Her of course."

"Then I suggest maybe you let Miss Putman speak for herself."

"Oh...sorry," Kevin said, embarrassed.

Dr. Stewert laughed. "Don't be embarrassed Mr. Richardson. It happens all the time. This is your first child, it's perfectly normal to be a little nervous. But I assure you the whole purpose of these appointments are to see that your child is living and healthy."

"Thank you Dr. Stewert," Kevin replied.

"Well, now lets get this started. We're going to do an ultrasound. You'll be able to hear the baby's heartbeat. It may be too soon to actually see the baby, but we'll take a look."

Sarah laid down on the table and lifted up her shirt as the doctor rubbed a clear gel on her stomach. Kevin got up and walked over to them.

"Does....does that hurt her?"

"Not at all. It's just a little cold and it tickles. It doesn't hurt her at all. You see this little dot right here?" Dr. Stewert said as he pointed to the monitor. "That's your baby."

"Oh wow.....that's so amazing," Kevin said astonished. "That my baby," he said with misty eyes. Kevin looked down at Sarah and held her hand. "It's my baby," he whispered and kissed her brow.

When the appointment was over Sarah picked up the vitamins the doctor had prescribed to her and got into Kevin's car. On the way home Kevin was silent, but smiled as he drove. Sarah laughed and linked her fingers with his.

"Look at you, you're giddy."

"I know, I'm so psyched," he said as he pulled into their driveway.

The two of them got out and went inside the house. Sarah walked into the living room and laid on the couch.

"Ugh being pregnant makes me so sleepy," she said as she shut her eyes.

Kevin smiled and kneeled down in front of her. He kissed her gently on the lips. "Thank you," he said quietly.

"For what?"

"For letting me go. It was a wonderful experience."

Sarah smiled and kissed him on the lips. "It was a good experience for me too."

"Seven more months," Kevin whispered as he tucked her hair behind her ear.

"Seven more months," Sarah replied then kissed him.
