I looked at my room. It was so perfect, all I need now is the baby to come out.
I was so hungry. All I could think about for this past week was the cake from the baby shower. Unfortunely, I ate it all the day after the shower.
I was at 37 weeks, and I still didn't have a name for the baby.
Brad came over later.
"Brad we need to talk."
He froze. "Talk about what?" he asked nervously.
"I'm giving birth in about 3 weeks and we still don't have a name for our baby." I said.
"Oh yeah, we haven't really talked about that much." he said.
"Yeah, so I was thinking of something that starts with a P , or an M." I said.
"Like what?"
"Paige maybe."
"I like it." he said.
"Me too."
"What else do you have?"
"Monica , or Madeline, or Marilyn." I thought for a second, "or Misty."
"What about Amanda? I know it doesn't start with an M, but I kind of like the name."
"I like it too. " I said, "ok, maybe we can figure out something that starts with an A."
"What about Stacey?" he asked.
"I don't really like it." I said, "but I do like Amanda." I said.
"So what do we name her? Amanda?"
"As of now, I think her name will be Amanda. Amanda Paige. Paige sounds like a good middle name, right?"
"Yeah, I like it." he said.
We're naming our baby Amanda, Amanda Paige.

About a week later, I was organizing Amanda's clothes. I even had the perfect outfit picked out for when she arrives.
It was a cute little baby pink onesie with white polka dots. It was simple and cute. I also had a matching pink blanket with it.
MaryJane called me.
"Hey." I said.
"Hey, Alli." she sounded worried.
"What's up?"
"I need to tell you something."
"What is it?"
There was a silence.
"Can I come over? I want to tell you in person" She asked.
"Sure."
"Thanks, I'll be over in a few minutes."
She later showed up at my house.
"Hey come in, let's go to my room."
She came in with me.
"Ok so what's up?" I asked.
"Allison, I'm , um." she started to say.
