She laughed a little bit and shook her head, moving a strand of hair behind her ear. "Mmm I'm going to need you to come over every day to tell me that. I feel like a mess." She couldn't remember the last time she wasn't wearing pajamas and she definitely couldn't remember if she showered this morning or last night. Everything was a blur. And it wasn't like Hudson wasn't telling her how beautiful she was and stuff, it just felt nice hearing it from an outside party, too. Lexi looked at her friend curiously. "Yeah? Something we need to discuss?" She asked before she looked at the bag. "Solana, you didn't have to do that." She took the bag. "You're going to get me crying. If you thought I was bad pregnant, I have been worse lately." @solanaxortiz

She laughed a little bit and nodded. "That's probably true." She took a breath and looked at her husband as he came to her side. "I'm okay." She assured him and rubbed her bump. "It's just a contraction. Nothing to worry about. We just gotta keep an eye on them. Maybe he or she will try making an appearance before we go and get induced tomorrow." She laughed a little bit and took a breath. "Definitely need to get this bag packed the rest of the way, though." @hudsonxelliot

She laughed and nodded. "I can imagine. I feel it comes with the territory at this point." Lexi said, rubbing her bump a little. "It can be a lot, I won't lie. One minute I'm fine, and the next I'm in tears. You're lucky I didn't start sobbing when I opened the door and saw you brought treats." She laughed and shook her head. "Good. I'm glad. I'm glad the bakery is going good, too. Once the baby is born, I'll definitely be stopping by." @hazalxalpman

"Now, that I can handle. If Little Elliot needs snacks, I'll be the first in line to bring them," she promised with a quick laugh. She was ready to contribute however she could when Hudson and Lexi's baby came, eager to welcome another niece or nephew into her life. "It is, it is. I just forget sometimes to eat. If I didn't have lunch at work on the days I work, I probably would eat at a gas station every day." Thankfully her job allowed her to take extra food when it was available, so she sometimes had a healthy meal without her family making it happen. "Yeah, it uh - I mean. It's not like any big deal. It's a company that does the research and they just have it so people can contribute data. Gives me something to do, I guess. But, it's like, they're planets outside of our solar system. So, we can track their orbit by when they pass in front of the star they orbit, basically. Just a lot of watching and waiting for the light to dim just a bit."

"I'm sure you're going to be asked for that a lot in the future." Lexi laughed a bit. She could already see her son or daughter doing that with their Aunt Remi and it made her smile. "I feel like I need to start dropping lunch off to you. I think you're lucky I'm about to have a baby because I'd be showing up every day with food." She laughed, but did keep that in the back of her mind for when she was going to be more out and about. "That sounds amazing, Rem." She opened the door to the restaurant. "You'll have to tell me more once we sit down." @remingtonelliot

Lexi listened to him, tears filling her eyes and her hand moved to be on top of her husband's that rested on her bump. He always had a way of saying things that made her feel calmer. "We are. We're going to be great parents." She said and squeezed his hand, a tear running down her cheeks and she quickly wiped it away before leaning in and kissing him. "I know we can, too." She said and took a breath before standing slowly, a hand going to her back. "Okay. I gotta finish packing the hospital bag again before I just sit and cry." She laughed and waddled over to grab the bag. "I want us to be prepared for tomorrow." She went to grab something and as she bent, she felt a sharp pain in her stomach. "Ooh." She breathed and touched her bump. @hudsonxelliot

She laughed a little bit. "Well, if you're doing research, you can definitely add me to the list." She told Solana. "But I appreciate it. I really do." It was nice to hear someone from the outside say these things. She truly believe that her and Hudson had this because they had each other and she was so thankful that they were brought back together in order for this to come into fruition. Laughing again, Lexi nodded. "Don't worry. We'll definitely be bringing them to the dentist. I know the perfect person to make an appointment with." @solanaxortiz

She nodded and moved to get some glasses and then to the fridge to get the lemonade. She poured it carefully and then put the pitcher down on the counter before passing Hazal the drink. "I'm sure even if you did tell him, he'd be fine with it." She laughed a little bit. "He knows by now when it comes to food, what's his is mine too." She joked. "I once was crying over the fact he had a Snickers after I had asked him to get me a Reese's and it was a whole ordeal." The pregnancy hormones were no joke. "How have you been, though? I feel like it's been forever." @hazalxalpman

She smiled as she looked over at him and nodded. "I know. It feels like we just found out, but that it's taken forever to get here." And her body felt that way too. Lexi took another look at herself in the mirror before she looked at her husband and made her way over to him. She sat on the bed and took his hand while placing the other hand on her bump. "A little bit. I'm scared I won't know what to do when they cry and I'll just make everything worse." She admitted to him before taking a deep breath. "But, I know that I have you and together, we'll be great. I have no doubt about that." She rubbed his hand. "Are you scared?" @hudsonxelliot

Lexi smiled at her little sister and nodded. "I'm glad I have you, too." There was no one else she would want by her side with all this and she couldn't imagine dealing with all this without Carmen. It was a lot, but they were going to get through it and do what was right by their mother. She nodded and took a breath. "Let's." She said and gestured towards the door. "I'll make the calls once we're at the hotel. I need to get my feet up." She smiled at her. "And we can order pizza." @carmenxfontenelle
