Engagement Party
June;
After Ann announced her engagement to Madison and things started to slow down Dorthy decided to throw a little engagement party for the two of them. Dorthy's parents owned a lake house about four hours away from home.
Since Ann always loved it there as a little girl, Dorthy thought it was the perfect place to celebrate. Madison and Ann invited all of their friends along with family members.
Dorthy drove up there a few days before everyone else to clean up and set up for the party.
Today was Saturday and Sam was driving Jessica, the baby, George and Jane to the house for the party.
Because of the baby Sam and Jessica wouldn't be spending the night like everyone else. They planned to come back home later that night so that Eloise could sleep better in her little bassinet.
Jane and George sat in the back with the baby on their way there. Saying that Eloise was a little grumpy was an understatement. George and Jane were stuck in the back with the crying baby.
"She doesn't want the binkie." Jane says over the screams
"Sam, I think we have to pull over again." Jessica sighs
"Okay."
"Why?" George asks
"You and I are gonna switch places so I can attempt to feed her from her seat." Jessica chuckles
Sam pulls over so George and Jessica can swap. Once everyone is situated Jessica buckles up and tries to get as close as she can to Eloise to breast feed her.
"That doesn't look comfortable." Jane says looking at her sister
"Sorry you have to see this. But I think she's just hungry." Jessica sighs
"Does it hurt?" Jane asks
"Sometimes. But she's being nice today." She chuckles
After a feeding Eloise was just fine. She calmed down and stopped fussing.
"There, now she's sleepy!" Jessica whispers
"Good job, mama." Sam says from the front
"I want a baby like Eloise." Jane says
"Your day will come." Jessica smiles
"Promise you and I will have a baby at the same time so that they can be best friends?" Jane giggles
"More kids?" Sam says
Jessica laughs "Maybe. For right now and for a very long time we are okay with one. She's our little girl. We couldn't imagine her having to share us." Jessica holds Eloise's little finger and smiles

They arrived to the lake house around twelve. The party started at One so they arrived just in time for the party to start.
"Where's my niece?" Ann says running to the car
"She's in there." George says
"Was she fussy?" Ann asks George
"Yes, until Jessica whipped out her boob and fed her." George sighs
Ann laughs and goes to the back seat. "Aww, she's so cute and dressed up!" Ann smiles
"She wanted to look pretty for her auntie Ann." Sam says holding the tiny baby
"She's like a doll. I swear!" Ann laughs
"She's still super tiny. Are you gonna tell aunt Ann that you're a month now!" Jessica says in a baby voice
"Wow! I feel like I haven't seen her in forever, but it's only been a week and a half." Ann giggles as she hugs her siblings
"Big day!" Sam says
"Yes, Madison and I are so happy. Mom did a great job setting everything up. Come look!" Ann says taking off with the baby.
Sam and Jessica follow Ann and get a good luck at all of the decorations and food.
"Wow! This is so you." Jessica says
"I know. It's Madison and I's personalities put into one."
Jessica could see the light in Ann's eyes. She really loved Madison and was so excited about the party.
"I'm so happy for you guys!" Jessica smiles
"Thanks sis." Ann says hugging her

A Few Hours Later;
By now everyone was at the party enjoying themselves. There was a beautiful sunset and everyone was outside by the fire celebrating and having their drinks and food.
Eloise was sleeping in her car seat inside. Jane was tired herself so she stayed inside with Eloise so she could give Sam and Jessica some time to themselves.
Jessica and Sam snuck off too a little spot that Jessica used to play by when she was younger. It wasn't too far from anyone but it gave them enough privacy.
Sam and Jessica held each other close as she slow danced to some of the songs. It felt so good to just have each other's company with no distractions.
"It's been fifteen minutes and this is the longest I've been away from the baby." Jessica whispers
"Are you holding up okay?" He jokes
"Yes, I'm fine." She laughs
"I just want to hold you like this forever." He whispers
"Me too." She smiles
"You are my everything." He says
"I love you..." she smiles
"I love you too."
They hold each other in their arms for a little bit until they hear Jane screaming for them.
"Is that Jane?" Jessica says
"Someone help! The baby! The baby!" Jane yells
"Oh my god!" Jessica yells as she runs as fast as she can to the cabin.
Sam bolts after her to see what is wrong.
When they make it to the cabin Jane was hysterical. Everyone was surrounding the baby.
"WHAT HAPPENED TO MY BABY!" Jessica cries
