Baby Love (Baby #2)(141)
I got up and went to the bathroom turning the shower on to warm up the water. I got clean underwear and my long silk nightgown out of my closet.
I showered and got dressed in my nightgown, pulling my robe on over it. I blew my hair dry and applied some make-up. I wanted to have a romantic evening with my husband.
When I went out to the living room I could hear Trey in the kitchen with Preston. I peeked around the corner and saw that had been feeding her some pureed carrots. She kept putting her fingers in the dish and then sucking the carrots off of her fingers.
"Preston, come on sweetie. Please use the spoon for Daddy?"
It was so cute. Trey was trying to teach her how to use her spoon. He held it to her and she clutched it in her little hand.
"That's right baby, now dip it into your bowl like Daddy showed you and get some of these yummy carrots on the spoon okay?"
"Da-da," she squealed, grinning at him.
"Yes sweetie, use your spoon for Daddy."
Preston dipped her spoon into the bowl of pureed carrots.
"Good girl," Trey crooned to her encouragingly.
"That's Daddy's good girl. Now bring the spoon up to your mouth sweetie."
Trey was imitating to her what to do with the spoon with his hand as if he had a spoon in it. She was watching him in awe with her big blue eyes.
"See like this Preston."
She raised her spoon from the bowl and had managed to get some of the pureed carrots on it. She held it up trying to get Trey to eat it.
"No honey," he said patiently, "Put spoon in Preston's mouth."
Trey was back to imitating what he wanted her to do. I could tell she was getting bored with this game. She squirmed in her chair and dropped the spoon onto her tray where it bounced and hit Trey's shirt splattering the carrots.
(Uh oh.)
"That's okay sweetie," he said to her, leaning down and picking up the spoon.
By this time Preston had spied me watching from around the corner of the kitchen. She started getting excited and squirming to get out of her high chair. She knocked the little bowl of carrots off of the high chair as Trey was bent down cleaning up the floor. It hit his shoulder and splattered all over him and the floor.
(Oops! Holy shit!)
I backed out of the room quickly making my way through the living room and back to the hall.
"Shit," I heard Trey say.
Preston starting whining saying, "Mamma" over and over again.
I came into the kitchen as if caught by surprise.
"What happened in here?" I asked innocently.
"Oh just a little training session that went wrong," Trey laughed.
"I need to change my shirt Tylar. Can you take over?"
"Sure sweetie," I replied smiling.
I wiped up the mess on the floor and then got a clean wash cloth and cleaned up Preston's face and fingers. I got a graham cracker for her and got her out of the high chair. I took her into the living room and got her settled in her play suite with some toys.
I went back into the kitchen and cleaned up her chair and loaded the dishwasher. I noticed that something was in the oven.
Trey came back in with a clean tee shirt on.
"Hey baby," he said pulling me to him and kissing me passionately.
"I wanted to surprise you and have the baby fed and in bed. I've got our dinner in the oven."
"Well I can see that Trey. I can't tell what it is though."
"Actually Gina made it before she left to go to the club. She told me how long to let it cook. It is some kind of a casserole that has chicken, broccoli and white cream sauce with various cheeses in it was all she told me. I made our salads though and they are in the fridge."
"Oh Trey. That is so romantic of you."
"I wanted our night to be special. We move day after tomorrow so this will probably be our last meal here alone before we move."
"Yeah speaking of which - why did Gina go down to the club?"
"Oh I don't know. I think she missed Tristan. Apparently Ian called her this afternoon while you were sleeping and she was making the casserole. They argued on the phone and she told him to go to hell. I heard that much of it. She put the casserole in the oven and told me when to take it out. She said she wanted to go and talk to Tristan. I figured she missed him. Anyway we have this evening to ourselves."
(Holy shit - what was up with Ian and her arguing? This can't be good.)
"How about if I go ahead and bathe Preston?" I said to him. "I'll get her ready for bed and then we can have our dinner."
"Okay babe, I'll get the table set and pour some wine for us."
I went out to get Preston. She had managed to eat her graham cracker wearing a lot of it on her face. I bathed her and put her into her pajamas. I put her to bed with some of her toys. She was fairly good about entertaining herself before falling asleep.
As promised Trey had set the table and poured us each a glass of wine. He had a fire going in the fireplace and we sat out in the living room enjoying our alone time.
I leaned in to him as the fire crackled warmly. He took my wine glass from me and set it on the coffee table along with his. He pulled me over to him, unfastening the belt on my robe and pulling my robe down my shoulders. He noticed my sexy silk nightgown with the plunging neckline that I had worn. His beautiful sapphire eyes locked with mine and I saw the warmth and passion in them.
