First Birthday
After church the Paulsons' head over to the Hustons'.
"Isla, you're gonna get to join in on our Easter egg hunt!" Zoe smiles as Jessica hands her the baby.
"She's looking at you like, You are not my mommy you old woman." Danny says.
Zoe makes a face at her son before turning back to Isla. "Don't listen to him, he's a stinky stinky boy! ...Oh gosh, I always wanted a girl." Zoe sighs.
"Have another one, sis." Catherine says.
"With those two? And Danny? Oh gosh no! I can't handle that!"
"Aw come on, Mrs. Huston! Isla needs more friends!" Jessica smiles.
Zoe looks to the baby and says, "I'll be your friend, Isla."
Jessica laughs and Danny says, "Jessie please don't. This house does not need another snotty nosed monster running around."
"Aww! Danny, that's not nice!" Jessica pouts. "You think Isla is a snotty nose monster too.."
"Not Isla! Isla is a perfect princess."
Jessica smiles. "I did make her pretty close to perfection. But your brothers are the cutest little guys I've ever seen!"
"Woah, Woah, Woah. Mom, break out the baby books."
Jessica laughs.
"I was cuter than those two fools. Trust me."
"Oh gosh!" Zoe nods. "I don't know.. Maybe I want another one. She's just such a cute and sweet little baby!"
"No you do not, mom. Mom!"
"What?"
"Hand me the baby."
"No, I just got her!"
"Give her to me and stop."
"Daniel, go over there and leave me alone."
"Isla, you need to make an explosion in that tiny little diaper of yours. I've seen your work and I know you can do it!"
Isla looks to Danny and immediately starts smiling.
"Hi buddy!" Danny smiles. "Hey best friend!"
"Hey I'm your best friend!" Jessica playfully punches his side.
"You're my second best friend." Danny plays.
"Awww!" Jessica laughs and hugs him.
"What am I, Scum?!" Sarah shouts.
"You're my best friend too, Sarah!" Jessica smiles.
"You're my cousin, we're not friends." Danny says.
"Stop being so mean." Jessica chuckles.
"I'm so nice! Right, poopy?"
Isla giggles.
"Come here. I know you want me to take you from Zoe." Danny says taking Isla from his mother.
Zoe then turns to her husband. "John, I want another baby!"
"That's nice, dear."
"Don't give in, Dad."
"Daniel, leave your mother alone. Come on, don't you want another one of these perfect little babies hanging around?" Jessica smiles to Isla and holds Danny's arm.
"I mean.. I guess it wouldn't be terrible."
"You were a only child for so long because I had you when I was young, you should be happy I want to give you siblings now!"
"Yeah!" Jessica playfully smacks the back of his head.

"Look at all your eggs, Isla!" Jessica says. "Wow! Aren't you a lucky girl?"
"She is so cute! I think she has my eyes." Sarah smiles.
Jessica turns to Sarah.
"What? She does!"
"No." Danny says. "Her eyes are beautiful. She has Jessica's eyes."
"Aw!" Jessica smiles. "Sarah's eyes are beautiful too.. But wow, thank you!" She giggles.

April 8th.
Jessica walked downstairs with Isla. Last night was rough, and she was exhausted.
"You were a stinker last night, Isla Rose. You better be good today for Mrs. Paulson. No one likes a stinker."
Jessica makes it to the bottom of the stairs and jumps back when she hears, "SURPRISE!"
"What?!"
"Happy First Birthday!" Danny and Sarah shout.
"You guys! What is this?" Jessica giggles.
"It broke my heart when you told me you've never had a birthday, so here we are! It's your first birthday! Tomorrow will be your second, Saturday your third, and I think you get what we're doing here." Catherine says.
Jessica covers her mouth and cries.
"Oh Jess." Sarah pouts.
"I can't believe how nice you all are to me. Thank you so much! I love you all so much."
"Aw Jessica, we love YOU!"
"We do. You're family, Jess." Sarah's father says.
Jessica wipes her cheeks and smiles. "Thank you all. Wow! A cake, balloons.. A tiara! This is so cool!" She giggles.
"Isla, look! It's mommy's first birthday party!"
Isle makes a noise before blowing spit bubbles.
Jessica laughs and kisses the top of her head.
