First Grade
August 31st; 35 Weeks pregnant
Sam was up before Jessica making the kids breakfast. Scarlett wanted to bring her mom breakfast in bed, so she had Sam make Jessica's favorite breakfast. Dorthy helped Scarlett go outside and pick some flowers from the garden.
Scarlett and Wyatt could sense that Jessica was not well. Her pregnancy was beating her up and taking away all of her energy. Even though they didn't understand what was going on, they rarely left Jessica's side.
"Can you water them?" Scarlett says as Dorthy gets a vase
"Yes, they are so beautiful." Dorthy smiles
Sam put the platter together and all the kids headed up with breakfast.
'"Mommy!" Wyatt says walking into the room
Jessica was just getting waking up when they walked in
"Oh, wow!" Jessica smiles
"It was my idea!" Scarlett says
"But I helped!" Wyatt hisses
"But I picked the flowers!" Scarlett shouts
"Hey, hey.... We don't talk to each other like this." Jessica says
"I was just saying..." Wyatt says
"Thank you all for a wonderful breakfast." Jessica smiles
"Can we swim today?" Scarlett asks
"Sure we can!" Sam says
"But you too mommy." Wyatt adds
Jessica sighs and puts her breakfast aside.
"I can't honey... I have to stay in bed."
"No!" Scarlett whines
"Looks like some of you didn't get enough sleep last night. Why are we so whinny?" Jessica says
"Mandy swims with us, all the time!" Scarlett adds
Sam quickly steps in. "Let's go get on our swim suits, mommy will join later."
Scarlett and Wyatt quickly jump off the bed and run off to get changed. Sam gets into bed and cuddles up next to Jessica.
"Hey, you okay?" He says
"That was a lot. Somehow my feelings are hurt." She sighs
"They don't understand... but they will and things will go back to normal soon." He assured her
"I'm ready for these babies to get out of me... but I'm also scared because it's just going to get harder. Five kids... that's so many." She says
"We got this. Plus, we have a full house with your parents here!" He chuckles
"They are probably going to need help with their suits... do you mind?" She laughs
"I'll go help em."

A week later;
Since the babies are only a few weeks closer to coming it was time to put together the nursery. Jessica's sisters came over to help set up and decorate. Jessica wanted it done soon since she was starting to nest.
Sam painted the walls a few weeks ago, so now it was time to put together all of the furniture. They moved the rocking chair out of Jack's room. For now, Scarlett and Wyatt are still sharing a room while Jack has his own. Once Dorthy and Albert move home, they are hoping to put Scarlett in the guest room and give her a big girl room along with Wyatt as well. While that was on hold they collected all the baby things they had to start the girls nursery.
Jessica had a lot of decorations come in the mail. Her sisters went to pick up the rest from the store. The furniture has been sitting in the garage for weeks.
While the cousins played Jessica Sam and her sisters began to work.
Jessica sat in the rocking chair as she told everyone where she wanted things. Jessica organized all of the clothes and put some on hangers while the others were folded nicely.
"It's really coming together." Ann says
"I love the boho look." Jane says
"Thank you. I'm really putting my all into this one. I love the new styles." Jessica smiles
"Where do you want this picture, baby?" Jessica asks
"Above the dresser. But not above the changing table. Nothing can be hanging where the baby will be." Jessica hesitates
"Right here?" He asks
"Perfect!"
"Mommy!" Chase comes running in
"What baby?" Ann says
"Baby Jack took my toy!" Chase cries
Baby Jack comes running in with tears rolling down his face
"What happened?" Jessica asks as she holds Jack
"He took my toy and I grabbed it back! He started crying! It wasn't my fault." Chase says
"Chase, Jack is just a baby. You have to be gentle... and share." Ann says
Soon enough the boys calm down and go back to
Playing in the twins room.
"I love them this small, but the whining and sharing... it's a big problem." Ann says
"You're just making me more scared since I have two more coming!" Jessica cries
"I have two and it doesn't feel like enough. Let me know how five goes." Ann laughs
"Oh god. When will it be my turn?" Jane says
"Whenever you want!" Jessica says
"Is this your last pregnancy?" Ann asks
Sam chuckles "I hope not!"
Jessica rolls her eyes "Maybe! But I'm a twin machine. I could end up with seven!"

Come night time the nursery was finally done. Dorthy and Albert had taken the kids to get pizza. When the kids got back everything was out away and finished.
Sam put the three kids to sleep since it was getting close to their bedtime. Ann's kids were passed out as well.
Everyone wanted to take one last.
"It's done! Finally!" Jessica smiles
Sam puts his arms around Jessica and smiles. "I can't believe our baby girls will be here any day."

September 7th;
Today was Wyatt and Scarlett's first day of First grade. They are finally moving up to big kid school! Five days a week for 8 hours a day. It was a lot for Jessica to process. Her first babies going to school. Now her youngest baby was going to preschool. It was a big day for all of the kids.
The morning of Jessica picked out their clothes and made their lunches. She was feeling really good today, so she wanted to spend the morning out of bed.
Danny and Mandy would be here any minute to send Wyatt and Scarlett off of the bus then take Jack to school.
It was sad for the summer to be over, but with the babies coming soon it all worked out perfectly.
It was just hard for Jessica to send her kids off to school everyday knowing that she could go into labor At any second and they'll come home to new siblings.
"Let mommy take pictures!" Jessica says as the kids hold their signs
They each had new book bags and lunch boxes. It was the most exciting part for them, including their school supplies.
Dorthy took pictures of Sam and Jessica with the kids and then they did individuals.
Soon enough Danny pulled up. Him and Mandy walked up to the front door to greet everybody. The kids were so excited to see them.
"We start first grade!" Scarlett smiles
"I know are you guys excited?" Danny smiles
"Mhm!" Wyatt chuckles
"And little man is starting preschool." Jessica says
"Ahhh! How are you guys growing up so fast!" Danny smiles
"How are you feeling, Jess?" Mandy asks
"This is the most I have been up in a while and I feel pretty good!" Jessica says
"But, she will be right up to bed once the bus comes." Sam smiles
"Mandy and I actually have some news!" Danny says
"I'm going to be student teaching and Wyatt and Scarlett's elementary school! I decided to finish my education degree." Mandy smiles
Sam and Jessica were a little shocked, but they smiled. "Oh, wow!"
"I didn't know you started an education degree." Sam says
"Me neither!" Danny says
"That's so much fun. You'll be able to watch over my little ones." Jessica giggles
"I'll be with the first grade. They assign me a teacher today." Mandy adds
"Well congrats!" Sam says

A couple minutes later the bus comes up the drive to pick up the kids. Jack was all loaded up in Danny's car while they sent the twins off.
Jessica took a bunch of pictures as they got onto the bus. Jessica cried as she watched her babies walk away.
They didn't even say goodbye, they were too excited to go onto the bus for the first time.
Sam gave Jessica a hug as she cried.
"I'm sorry, I'm just emotional." She whispers
