"We're gonna be okay.  This journey is going to be incredible."

Abri smiles softly then asks, "Will you please talk to Paul and Kyra?"

"Yeah.. Oh gosh, this is going to be hard."

"I know.  Good luck."

"Thanks." Conner sighs then walks out to the waiting area.

Jessica and the rest of the family saw Conner walk over to Paul and Kyra.

Jessica took a deep breath and placed her hand on her chest.
"I think he's gonna tell them."

"You really think they're gonna keep the baby?" Bradley asks.

"I think so."

"I feel so bad for them but.. I'm happy for us!" Idris smiles.

"Me too!  We have a baby!!  That's three new babies in the family."

"I can't believe these two are an aunt and uncle." Ziah laughs and rubs Jessica's belly.

"I know!  They seem to be excited about it, don't they?"

"They do!  I feel those little feets kicking!" Ziah chuckles.

A few minutes later they see the couple leave.

"Conner looks upset.  Help me up, honey." Idris stands and helps Jessica.

"Ouch.. Thanks, baby.
  Conner?  Are you okay, sweetie?"

"Yeah.  I just feel bad.. but I'm so happy." He smiles through his tears. "We're keeping the baby."

Jessica jumps and hugs her son. "I'm so happy, baby!!"

"You guys come in and meet him.  Abri's mom just left so you only have to put up with Abri." He chuckles.

"I can handle that bitch." Jessica makes a face.

"Oh gosh, mom.  Come on!"

"I'll wait out here.  You guys take pictures." Idris smiles softly.

"No Idris, you can come in too!" Conner smiles.

"Really?  Thanks!"

**

"Everyone's here to meet little man." Conner says as his family follows behind.

Abri looks up before turning her attention back to the baby.

"Oh look how cute!" Bradley smiles.

"Boys come wash your hands before touching the baby."

Conner takes the baby from Abri and waits for Bradley to finish washing his hands.

"Okay, uncle Brad is ready!  Give me that baby!"

"Uncle Brad, meet your nephew Franklin."

"Oh my gosh that's such a cute name!  Oh my goodness, Hi Franklin!"

Ziah smiles over to his husband holding their nephew.

"Frankie, can you say hello to your uncle Ziah?"

"Hi sweet boy!  Gosh, he's so adorable."

"Everyone hurry up and hold him so I can have another turn!" Jessica says barely able to contain her excitement.

Once the two boys held him, it was Idris' turn.

"Aw look at you, honey!" Jessica smiles to her lover. "Frankie, this is your.... Idris." She giggles.
"He's really sweet.. you'll love him!"

The baby opens his eyes and looks up to Idris.

"Hello there!" Idris smiles.

"Aww!" Jessica pouts. "You're so cute holding him.  This is making me even more excited for our babies!"

Idris smiles down to Jessica.
"Soon they'll be here, and Frankie will have a friend!
.. Well aunt and uncle I guess." He laughs.

"Yep!" Jessica giggles and rubs her belly. "Hurry up and come out, you two!
  Now give me the baby, it's my turn!"

"Okay, okay.  Here you go.. Go to your Nan."

Jessica smiles and takes the baby.

"We'll it's nice to see you again!  Man you're adorable!
  Yes you are!  Yes you are!" Jessica kisses his forehead before singing to him.

"Hey it's Franklin!"

"He's gonna love mom.  She keeps singing everytime she holds him!" Conner chuckles.

"Mhm!  You're gonna know Gamma's voice, aren't you, love?
  Let's see, what else can we sing?"

Jessica then changes the words to "Hey Mickey" to Frankie's name.

"Oh Frankie, you're so fine
You're so fine you blow my mind, hey Frankie,
Hey Frankie!"

Idris laughs and wraps his arm around her. "You're the cutest, baby."

Jessica looks up and smiles. "Thanks.  Do I look okay with a baby?  Do I look too old to be a mommy again?"

"Not at all!  You look beautiful."

"Thanks.  You can kiss me now." Jessica smiles.

"You cheeky little monkey!" Idis chuckles and kisses Jessica's lips.

Christmas Eve.
37 weeks pregnant.

"Ezekiel and Azariah, for Christmas all mommy is asking is for you to come out.  That's all I'm asking!" Jessica says to her bump.

Idris laughs as he walks towards her.
"Here's your tea, my love."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome.  Do you think the babies will grant your Christmas wish?" Idris sits beside her and rubs the top of her belly.

"Heh!  Nope!  Iddy, I don't think they're ever coming out." Jessica nods her head and looks to Idris with pouted lips.

"Aw love, they're just so comfy in there, mommas."

"I really wish they weren't."

"I know.. But Hey!  Cheer up, kiddo, it's almost Christmas!" Idris smiles and pinches Jessica's cheek.

"Yeah.. Man, I was really hoping they'd be here for Christmas.  How fun would that have been?"

"We have many many Christmas mornings to look forward to with these little chunks."

"I know..
.. Iddy?"

"Yes, love?"

"I feel bad."

"Why?"

"I ruined a family tradition!"

"What do you mean?"

"You, Leona and your boys always spend Christmas morning together as a family, and I ruined it!  I ruined Christmas!" Jessica cries.

"Darling, don't cry!  It was going to be different this year anyway with the boys being married, and my oldest with his girlfriend."

"I feel terrible."

"Don't!  We're still all getting together later on, it's okay, Love."

Jessica sniffles. "I hate being so emotional.  These babies really know how to mess with mommy, don't they?"

Idris smiles at Jessica's cute little pouted lips.
"They sure do, darling.  Now don't you cry.  You are way too pretty for that, my dear dear Princess." Idris wipes Jessica's cheeks.

Jessica sniffles and smiles softly. "You're everything, babe.  You've got a heart of gold, you're sexy as hell, you're great at sex.. You have that cute fucking accent!"

"You're the one with the accent, Jess."

"Noooo!" Jessica giggles. "I have a normal voice, silly!"

Idris laughs at Jessica's adorable personality.

**

Later that day.

"Oh gosh, I'm here!  I've finally made it!" Conner walks into the house with the carrier and diaper bag.  His hair was a mess, his beard was grown out, and there were dark circles under his eyes.

"Hi honey!  I can't get up so come over here and give me a kiss." Jessica puckers.
"And then give Gamma the baby!" She baby talks.

"Hey mom." Conner kisses her cheek before touching her bump. "Hey brother and sissy!" He chuckles.

Jessica looks down and giggles.

"Here's the baby.  He's fed and changed so he should be good for you."

"Aw good!  Where's Abri?"

"She's going to her family's."

"She just left the him?  He's a week old!"

"Yeah.  She's not breastfeeding anymore so he at least has food.  He'll be alright, won't you Frankie?  Say I'm okay, Gamma!" Conner baby talks.

"Aw, yes you will, Love!
  Conner, she's already stopped nursing?"

"Yeah she couldn't take it anymore.  But he takes the bottle really well, so that's good!"

"Yeah.. You're such a good baby, Frankie Boy!"

Conner smiles before handing his mother the baby.

"Son.. Do you wanna go clean up?"

"Heh!  I know I look a mess but I just haven't slept!"

"Do you two alternate feedings at night?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"The baby's in my room because Abri says she needs her rest."

"So you take every feeding?"

"And every diaper change."

"Oh honey!"

"But it's okay.. I'm exhausted but.. I've never been happier." Conner says with a tired smile.

"Aw.. That's sweet.
  Well tonight Grandma is here so you relax, baby!"

"Thank you, mom."

"Any time!  As long as I can take care of him right from this couch then we're golden, aren't we Frankie?"

Frankie coos and looks up to his grandmother.

"He said, yes!" Jessica giggles.

"Haha, well alright!  Thanks, ma."

"No problem, honey bunch."
