Things had settled some recently, though she could tell Beau was still frustrated by the whole situation with Odina and Toby, they had managed to find a routine and move on a little. Eva hadn't any idea what to do for him in the situation other than be there and to try and not pick fights over the little things. She'd been quite put out when he put his foot down on her working, now that she was quite obviously showing, but she hadn't put up nearly as much of a fight as she would have if the circumstances were different.
After a very thorough discussion with Mr. Podmore about the aviary and leaving it in Amelia's capable hands (with help from Beau of course) she'd been dismissed home to wait out the rest of this pregnancy. Ugh. She was bored already. Thankfully there was plenty to keep her hands busy around the house and with Beau gone all day, he couldn't hover and repeatedly ask her to take it easy or sit down. She was benefitting from an abundance of energy late in the morning, now that the morning sickness had subsided, but she could only do so much of the physical stuff without him whining at her to stop.
They were almost there, the house was quite livable now, she'd done a lot of work on the inside while Beau maintained outside, trying to get it it ready for the plethora of animals she had coming in. By the time bed rolled around she was well and truly exhausted. Thankfully once she curled up against her nice, warm husband, she was asleep within seconds and these days she got to sleep in a little bit. That was a nice perk.
It seemed Beau was not reaping the same benefits. As she rolled over to snuggle in, she found his side of the bed empty. After a few moments, she heard the familiar noise of work being done outside at this unholy hour. Slipping into her warm housecoat and slippers, she stole from the house, hair loose and wild. "Love, what are you doing out here?" Eva wasn't sure if she was amused, annoyed or worried right about now.
