I love hearing it when I'm in the same house as you, not two and a half hours away. [he pouts into the phone, laughing a bit. He hears her say 'talk' and he clears his throat and the naughty images he'd had in his head, smiling into the phone.] Peanut, listen to me, I know I'm not there, but thats not an excuse to treat your momma that way. Do you think you could just chill those little feet out for the next couple weeks. When you come out I promise you'll have all the room you want to kick those legs around. Ya hearin' me? [he chuckles into the phone.] Why do I get this image of him plugging his ears and sticking his tongue out?
You'll hear it as soon as you get here. [That was no lie. He'd be getting in late and unless he was too tired, she'd be dragging him off to the bedroom.] I'll be dragging you to the bedroom the second you walk in the door. [She smiled as she listened to him talking to peanut and when he stopped she turned off the speaker and chuckled softly.] Because that's probably what he's doing.
Mmmm, not if I drag you off to the bedroom first. Scoop ya up, and just run down the hall, OR, you can just lay in bed nakie and I'll start taking my clothes off the minute I get in the door. [chuckles, sliding down the bed a bit and getting comfy.] I miss you. I should let you go so you can get some sleep, or at least try to get some sleep. You know you can call me whenever you want right? If you cant sleep or you have a bad dream, you call.
You sure you can still pick me up? [She was teasing because even though her belly looked huge, she hadn't gained but about twenty pounds so far] Mmm...I think I like the second option better though but save something to strip off after you get in the bedroom. [She sighed softly now that she had that image in her head. Thursday wouldn't be there fast enough] I miss you, too. I don't wanna wake you up if you're sleeping good. I think your mama worries about me. Almost every time I get up, she gets up. I'm wondering if there's a sensor hooked to the bed. [chuckles]
[he snorts into the phone.] Are you serious? You're still light as a feather. Im beginning to think the only thing in your belly is a baby and air. [he smirks, already wishing it was Thursday because damnit, he wanted his wife.] I'll save my boxers for the bedroom, boxers and dog tags. [he grins, chuckling before lowering his voice a bit.] I dont care. If you have a bad dream or you're up, call me, okay? [he laughs, not putting the idea past his mom.] She does worry about you. She sent me an email the other day saying she was worried. [it makes him sad and even though he knows Sams fine, he still doesn't like being away from her, especially this close to the end of her pregnancy.] Ya never know, she may have installed something to alert her to when you get up, I wouldnt put it past her honestly. [chuckles.]
[chuckles] No, I just wanted to hear your reaction. That's because I don't have room for anything else and he still likes my ribs. [She wished it was Thursday, too. She hated not sleeping with him every night and instead curled up with Kojak.] Mmmm..boxers and dog tags. That sounds good to me. Just don't forget we're at your parents house and strip off everything. [chuckles again] I'll call you then.. I don't want your mom telling you I was up all night and you wanting to know why I didn't call. [She knew his mom worried but didn't know she worried that much.] What? She sent you an email? What was she worried about?
I wont forget. I know we're at my parents and ill make sure the coast is clear before I strip down. [He sighs into the phone, really wishing he was with her now.] Hows the pup by the way? he behaving? [He missed Kojak almost as much as he missed Sam and he smiles into the phone.] Good, I like hearing your voice, no matter what time it is. [He thinks for a second that maybe he shouldnt have mentioned his mom emailing but, he's already said it so he sighs into the phone.] It was nothing bad, she just was saying she could tell that you missed me. [he smiles.] and that she was just worried in general. I think she's being an overprotective grandma and mother in law.
Kojak's good. He usually sleeps with me at night. He likes playing with his puppy friends all days. [His silence made her wonder if there was something his mom worried about that she didn't know of. Sam knew she was nothing like she was when he went overseas. She didn't sit around crying when he was in training. She just missed him terribly.] I couldn't hide that if I tried but it's nothing like when you were overseas. She sees the faces I make when he kicks my ribs and how miserable I look when he keeps me up at night but I take a couple naps a day so I think I'm getting enough rest. And speaking of rest, you should get some.
Good, give him a hug for me. As nutso as he can get, I miss that dog. [He knows shes not as worried and upset as she was when he'd been deployed, but his trainings are always hard to go to and be away from her for so long and especially with her being pregnant now, this one was harder to get through.] I know, we just worry. She worries you're hurting and she cant do anything to help, and I worry about the same thing, plus obviously shes been in your shoes before so she's sympathizing with you a bit. [He hates hearing that shes so miserable, and it kills him that he cant be there with her to make her feel better, even if its just small things like rubbing her back or getting her whatever she needs so she doesnt have to get up and get it herself.] I dont need rest, 'least not as much as you do. Try and get some sleep sweetheart. Curl up against one of the pillows, maybe rest your tummy and leg on it and see if that helps take some of the pressure off your back.
I'm okay and in four weeks it'll all be over and I'll be me again. [She'd been doin pretty good, resting like she was supposed to and taking it easy by sometimes she just felt miserable anyway like her almost non stop backaches which had been better floating around in the pool. The constant peeing she did. They wanted babies and she knew this was part of it so she was okay.] Yes, you do need your rest especially by the time this one gets here. We're both gonna be sleep deprived. Your mom brought me extra pillows in the bedroom so I could try and get comfortable. I think I have six of them. She even got me one of those body pillows. I can put a pillow behind me against my lower back and then see what I can do with that body pillow.]
In four weeks it wont be just us anymore ... wow, In four weeks he'll be here. [He starts to get a little nervous, thinking they werent ready, they didnt have everything they needed. But he shakes the thoughts from his head, knowing he's being silly.] You're doing such a good job Sam, I know theres nothing fun about these last few weeks but you're doing so good. If ... Ill get snipped if you want so you only gotta do this once. [he's serious too. He hates seeing her going through this and being miserable.] Yeah, I guess I should bank all the sleep I can get now huh? Okay sweetheart. Get settled in ... six? SIX pillows? You sure theres gonna be room for me in that bed when I get back? [he chuckles.] Get settled in, get some sleep, and call me if you need anything. Ill see you in a couple days. I love you, I love you and I love Peanut.
Yeah, he'll be here in four weeks and then it will be the three of us. [That hadn't totally hit her yet that they'd have their tiny little baby in four weeks.] It's not as bad as I sound and no, you're not getting snipped. We wanted two and this isn't bad enough that I wouldn't do it again. No snip, snip yet. [She chuckled] Are you nuts? When you get back, the pillows go. I'm going. Call me tomorrow? I love you, Soldier.
