Re: "MaCalleigh....What should've been".
Arriving at the doctor's, Mac parked the car, unbuckled Macalleigh, removed her neck brace, and wrapped her in his arm. "You ready love"? as he took her by the hand. "REady as we will ever be daddy". Stopping at the desk, Calleigh informed the nurse she was there.
As they sat down, Macalleigh looked around the room, at all the different faces, with her eyes wide. "Calleigh...the doctor will see you now". Following the nurse into the room, they all sat down. "Hello Macalleigh, look at the little angel, so bright, and wide awake".
"Ahaahaa....she gurgled, as the nurse cooed her. "Good afternoon Calleigh, how are you today"? asked her doctor. "I'm fine, though I think Mac and I may be pregnant again". "Well congrat's if you are, how bout you go with the nurse, she'll give you a cup, and you can fill it for me".
Leaving the room, the doctor had quick look over Macalleigh. "How's everything going with her Mac"? "Good, the therapist says she is doing wonderfully". "Good to hear, she's 9 month's now, is she trying to talk at all"? "She makes alot of sounds". "Well that's good then, show's her vocal chords, are working, excellent".
Walking back in the room, Calleigh sat down, looked at the doctor, and said...."how long"? "About 5 minutes Calleigh, be patient, hop up on my table, and let me have a look at you". Laying back, the doctor checked her breasts, tummy, heart, and lungs. "Everything looks good, are your breasts tender at all"? "Sometimes".
"Good news Calleigh, said the nurse, your test is positive, looks like a new Taylor is on the way". "Oh my....thank you, oh this is wonderful". "Good...I'll set up some bloodwork for you, along with an Ultrasound, then I'll see you in two month's". "Okay...thanks again, oh my". Looking over at Mac, he was grining.
"Just what is so funny detective"? "You are...I get to spend the next eight months, watching you, eat the stuff you hate, and growing that beautiful tummy of yours". "Feeling her tummy, Calleigh smiled, and said...."what do you think Macalleigh....a brother for you"? "Waaaaaa,waaaaa,waaaaa".
"Hmmm...I guess our daughter would prefer a sister", laughed Mac.
