That was my favorite so far!
Author's Response: Thank you. =)

Mmmm... I love the image of his hand on her stomach. It makes it seem like he's looking at her as something ripe, earthy, feminine and beautiful.
Author's Response: This is pretty much the reason I'm dying to see anything close, which would still be about a mile away, on the show. Not one hand-on-belly shot this whole time, really? ;) Thanks for the review, I love hearing from you!

I really loved reading this chapter, yanana! You really get the picture after Company Picnic, which it's awesome. I hope you write more of this story soon!
Author's Response: I plan to. Glad you liked. =) Thanks for the review.

I've been following this since chapter 1, and I have to say this is the best chapter yet. It was so eloquent, so smooth, very well written, and very vivid for me. I think this is my favorite chapter so far. Very well written (as always) and I'm glad yours is the first story I'm catching up with after the weekend. And hey, good luck on finals!
Author's Response: Thank you! And thanks for always taking the time to read and review, means a lot. =)

I think this is absolutely my favorite chapter. To know what we know while reading it made it just that much special. What I think is really interesting is that I can SEE them making the expressions they made in Company Picnic when they found out -- based on this little vignette of yours. Their faces could have absolutely been in response to having JUST discussed it.
One of my favorite moments is when he's so close all she can see is green.
This is quite, quite good.
Author's Response: You make me so happy writing this, because I wanted it to match their expressions in CP, that's what was going through my head. And you thinking it did totally makes my day. Thank you so much for writing that! =)

this was such a great chapter! I really liked the perspective, which was definitely different from all the other chapters of this story. great job!
btw, are you going to do a birth episode? i think you should if you feel comfortable with all the birth description. well, maybe you could just have one when she begins labor or something, not the actual, physical birth, if you get what i mean!
anyways, great job, can't wait for more! this is getting to be such a classic JAM pregnancy story!
Author's Response: I don't know if I'll do a birth chapter. I have the last one already written, and I've already done a post-birth fic that took a lot of time. And I'm not sure if I'd want to write too much of the actual birth, because that's a very long process and totally hard to do. Firstly, I've never given birth, so what do I know? Haha. And also, it's very technical. And if I'm focusing only on character reactions/emotions, or whatever, I've kind of already done that in other fics. So, we'll see, but I like the ending I have now, and I hope you guys will, too. =) Thanks for the review, as always.

Love it. Marvelous atmosphere, so quiet and private. Nicely done. :)
Author's Response: Thank you! "Quiet and private" is exactly what I wanted. Glad you enjoyed. =)

YOU are great, yanana! Each chap is a separate little treasure. All I can say after reading this is thank goodness I didn't have ready access to all this information at all hours of the day and night when I was pregnant way back in the dark ages : D Great job, as always.

You had me fooled! Great chapter!

No, no… just no. I’m not ready for this to end. I’m not even close to it. You can do it, you can knock out a few (dozen) more – COME ON *Y.A.N.A.N.A Gooooo YANANA…waves pompoms in the air*
*Sigh* seriously girlie, this was so amazing. I say it every time, but you capture both Jim and Pam SO perfectly. If you run out of pregnancy stories, you can always document the little ones life month by month and obviously include a hefty dose of Mommy and Daddy Halpert ;) Is it awful I’m practically begging? LOVE IT!!! I’ve just added this to my ff recommendation list on Live Journal – sooo many people suggested this story -)
Nexxxxxxt!

I LOVE THIS. I have a friend who's pregnant right now (about as far a long as Pam) and she's so in this stage right now...starting to freak out. So this just really rang true to me. There was also something terribly sweet about the end there when Pam said, "I hope she gets this"...what a nice touch.
I do so enjoy all these pieces that you're writing. Please keep it up. :-)

very cute. at first i had no clue what the painting thing was about (the first few lines) but now that makes sense. so cute!
Author's Response: Thanks!

aw. i think this one was my favorite so far. love the last line =]

Another sweet slice of life Chez Halpert. He thinks about the day that whoever is in there will poke him back. Love that. *sigh*
Author's Response: If only we could've seen that day on the show! *holds out for S6 deleted scenes*

I really liked this one - very intimate and sweet. I could picture this - lovely:
She finished some time later, and pushed her fingers through his hair as he dozed off. His head was full of thoughts of how this used to be them, kind of. One of the first dates they had, when he fell asleep in her lap for a few hours, and woke up to her still watching television at his apartment. He'd apologized, but she dismissed him as her fingers ran through his hair.
When he started and looked up through her fingers at her face, he apologized, "Sorry, I'm just exhausted lately."
She dismissed him, just like that time years ago, and he wondered if she remembered (because he remembered so many things about years ago).
Author's Response: Thanks jazzfan. =) Glad you liked.

I'm going to be honest, I'm not entirely sure what I think of this chapter. Some of the movements going on in the story I couldn't envision, wasn't really sure how they were positioned, or why they were sitting on the floor. Are they in their house? What is this mural?
Needless to say, I was just very confused.
Author's Response: They're in their house, it what's going to be the nursery. Pam was painting. There's no furniture in it yet, so he brought dinner to her on the floor when she took a break for painting. The mural is what's going on the baby's wall. And Jim was lying with his head in his lap. =)

Oh I love that.
I can't paint either side of the bus.
That's a great line and genius way of tying in their honeymoon to the baby's arrival. Also adorable is how snuggly they are with one another. Each little vignette feels just so WARM. I love it.
Author's Response: Thanks lovefool, as always your review makes me smile. =) I do love to write a snuggly Jim and Pam, that's for sure.

Man, how you manage to capture them SO perfectly and beautifull is just BEYOND ME. You must me stealing notes from the writing staff over at NBC!
Seriously, though, your writing and your eloquency are just ... gorgeous. Some of these chapters have really brought a tear to my eye, like this latest installment. I never, ever want this fic to end, though I know it probably will.
....Just not anytime soon. 'Kay? Kay. >.>
Author's Response: Thanks so much for the kind review. =) I plan on ending it before the baby is born, but I'm sure by that point we'll have enough sweet moments off the show to keep us going.

Squeeeeeeeeee! I'm entertaining out-of-town relatives this week and slipped a way for a bit to check my e-mail (and MTT) and this is my reward! Yanana, you are awesome. Love it, love it, LOVE IT. Happy New Year, my friend.

Adorable. I'm not sure why, but I've always imagined drunk!Jim as a sweet, romantic Jim. Sort of sappy, and sort of out of it, and really touchy-feely. Needless to say this was really enjoyable because I think you hit the nail on the head! Or just my imaginary version of what I think he'd be like.
