Alex POV
January
Today, Lauren and I are going to find out what the gender of the baby is! We're super duper excited because we really wanted a girl and we would be so shocked if it was a girl! But if it's a boy, we'd be just as excited! We're gonna pick up Liam from school so that afterward we can all go the doctor's appointment!
*At School*
Alex- Hi Liam!
Liam- Hi Daddy! Where's Mommy?
Alex- She's in the car with your brother. How was school today?
Liam- It was fun! Kaleo and I made a tower out of blocks and we knocked it down!
Alex- Wow! That sounds like a lot of fun! Guess what we're gonna go do?
Liam- I don't know! What!?
Alex- We're gonna go to the doctor's office and find out if you and AJ are gonna have a little sister or little brother!
Liam- Really!? Yay!
*At Doctor's Office*
Doctor- Welcome back, Mr. and Mrs. Burriss! *puts on gloves* Are you guys excited to find out the gender of your baby?
Alex and Lauren- YES!
Doctor- Alright! *looks through documents* Okay, this baby is due on April 25th. Oh, and I see you brought your little ones with you! They're so cute!
Alex- Yup! My oldest Liam and my youngest Addison.
Liam- Hi!
Doctor- Hi! Liam, do you want a little brother or sister?
Liam- I want a little sister!
Doctor- Okay. Well, we're gonna see right now!
I kneel down on the ground next to Lauren and grasp her hand tight as the doctor applies gel to her stomach.
Alex- Baby, this is it!
Lauren- Yeah! I can't believe it.
Liam- Mommy is the doctor going to hurt you?
Lauren- No, she's just going to see what's inside my belly by using a special tool.
Liam- Oh.
Doctor- *searches* Let's see here... Oh, I hear a strong heartbeat! So far, everything looks good. Now for the gender... *searches*
Lauren- *squeezes Alex's hand*
Doctor- Congratulations guys! You are having a little baby girl!
Alex- WHAT!? Lauren! *hugs Lauren*
Lauren- *starts to cry* Is this real?
Alex- Yes, Baby, it's real! *in shock*
I can't believe Lauren's dream had finally come true! We're going to become parents to a little girl. I know Lauren is going to spoil her A LOT. She's going to be Lauren's little best friend. After the doctor's appointment, we all went to Aaron and Roni's house to tell them the news.
*At Aaron and Roni's House*
Alex- Hello everyone!
Aaron-Hi Alex!
Roni-Hi!
Liam-Hi Uncle and Auntie!
Aaron- Hi Liam! *hugs Liam* Where's your brother?
Liam- AJ is with Mommy.
Aaron- Oh there he is! Hi AJ! *kisses AJ*
Alex- So we're here to tell you guys something.
Roni- Are you having twins!?
Alex- *laughs* No. We're here to tell you that we're having a...
Alex and Lauren- GIRL!!!
Aaron and Roni- REALLY-!?
Aaron- Oh my gosh! I'm so happy for you!
Roni- Lauren! Your little girl can play with the twins!
Lauren- I know! I'm so excited! I'm gonna spoil her so much!
Aaron- Have you guys thought of a name yet?
Alex- Well, we have one in mind right now.
Aaron- What is it?
Alex- I don't want to tell you yet. *laughs* You have to wait.
Aaron- Can I at least know the first letter of the name?
Alex- Okay you can have the first letter.
Lauren- Her name starts with an S.
