"You're planning me a baby shower?" Eliza looked towards Mark with wide eyes. Her hand rested against her stomach that was very much growing. She's twenty one weeks now, with Callie at twenty three weeks.

"Well yeah, for you and Callie." Mark nodded seriously.

"A joint baby shower?" Eliza's eyes hadn't relaxed yet, still wide and bulging at Mark.

"Yeah..." Mark trailed off, thinking that maybe Eliza wouldn't like this.

"Thats so cool! We need games." Eliza grinned, eyes softening as she shifted on the examination table. She and Mark were waiting for Arizona to come in and give the baby a look.

A knock echoed before Arizona stepped in, cheerily since she had just learnt that Callie's baby was doing good for twenty three weeks. "Hey you two."

"Three. Don't forget the little bean." Eliza patted her stomach gently, feeling a small foot press up against her.

Arizona chuckled. "Of course, how could I forget the future little one." Arizona got work giving Eliza an ultrasound. "Looks like everything is great. Little bean is doing wonderful."

"He a good size for twenty one weeks?" Mark questioned, smirking as he tried to get Arizona to share if the baby was a girl or a boy.

Eliza glared at Mark when Arizona spoke. "The little bean is at a good size for twenty one weeks."

Mark groaned and threw his head back. Despite the fact that Eliza and Mark would wait until the birth to figure out if the baby was a girl or a boy. "Seriously, Arizona, you can't tell me?"

Arizona wiped the gel from Eliza's stomach. "I can, but someone's advised me not too."

"Yes Mark, I told Arizona that if she told you I'd kick her ass, pregnant or not. I also told her that I would kick yours afterwards." Eliza made a face, a silly smile on her lips once she finished with her threat.

"Good, uh, thing I was joking." Mark stammered, flashing a quick smile towards Eliza.

"You better be Mark." El raised her eyebrows before she reached out for help getting of the examination table.

"You've got surgery, hun. Let's get ya going." Mark helped her off the examination table, pulling her scrub top down after he placed a sweet kiss to his baby's stomach.

Mark was already such a sweet soon to be father. He's boughten an arrangement of things for the nursery in his apartment, he's got a shelf with a whole bunch of expecting parents books to read, he even started a college fund for the kid.

"Right right." El nodded, linking her arm with Marks as she walked the hallways with him towards the operating room. She'd be working with a neonatal surgeon to help a baby that had a hole in his chest.

"You think you'll be okay? I know that this might be a little complicated since you have little bean now." Mark questioned, slowing down his steps when he got to the are where Eliza would scrub in.

"Mark, babe, just because I'm carrying your child it doesn't mean that I'll get super emotional." Eliza placed a kiss to Marks cheek. "I'll be okay, you go set up mine and Callie's baby shower!"

"Eliza wants glitter pens." Mark glared at Arizona who had just said that the baby shower didn't need glitter pens or onesie decorating. "And Callie wants onesie decorating."

Arizona shook her head. "We don't need those, and we don't need scrapbooking." She wasn't to keen that she had to be apart of this, she didn't like baby showers, and would much rather be skating around and spreading magical pixie dust. It's not that she didn't love Callie, or that she didn't like Eliza, she would just rather not have to be apart of the baby shower.

"Are you two fighting?" Callie stepped into the room, glancing at Meredith and Christina who were walking toward carrying a table. "Stop fighting."

"Calls! Do you want onesie decorating?" Mark asked, before he looked towards Meredith. "And can you put that by the glitter pens."

"No don't put it there." Arizona interrupted, sending a deathly look towards Mark, Christina and Meredith.

"I want onesie decorating!" Callie spoke loudly, her tone happy and gleeful as she looked around and picked up a banner.

Congratulations Cal and El!

Callie loved it. Everyone could tell by the way her lips turned upwards and by the red that covered her cheeks. "Oliver Lee-Sunny."

Oliver whirled around, a cookie dropping from his hands that he raised above his head. "I wasn't eating a cookie ma'am."

"Olly, can you help me hang this?" Callie asked, pretending she didn't see Oliver stuff half a cookie in his mouth before he dropped it.

"Sure thing, Cals." Oliver grinned, walking over and standing on the later that Callie was standing by. He hung up the banner and got of the latter. "I got you a gift, ooo you'll love it!"

Callie giggled. "Yay!"

"Mark?" Everyone stopped to see Eliza walking ( more like waddling ) into the room. "Where are my slippers?" When the Lee-Sunny daughter noticed that everyone in the room stared, she stoped and waved. "Hey everyone."

"You want glitter pens right, Ellie?" Mark asked as he handed Eliza her fluffy slippers.

"Oh of course I do." Eliza nodded, her words light.

"See! Ha!" Mark pointed at Arizona, only for Eliza to smack him on the arm. "Ouch, sorry."

Only an hour later we're they playing games and decorating onesies. Eliza and her group, the interns from the beginning along with April and Lexie were all at the onesie decorating station.

Eliza was happily drawing random things on the white onesie. Lexie had drawn a piece of pie, cutie pie written underneath. Alex Karevs working on his second pair, his first being scrubs and his second having 'Alex Karev is my fav uncle!' and only that written on it with smiles and squiggles. Meredith was just squeezing glitter paint onto the white onesie, no design but a big circle in mind. And so many more designs.

Well they were doing that, Arizona and Callie were playing the belly size game. Guests would guess the side of Arizonas balloon belly and the size of Callie's belly.

When the party was done, Mark had his arms wrapped around Eliza. "Thank you for having fun."

"Who knew you could throw such a great party, huh?" Eliza questioned, leaning against Mark.

"Me. I knew." Mark spoke playfully.

Eliza grabbed ahold of Marks hand when she pulled away, placing it on her stomach. The baby was kicking. "Little bean says hi."
