My Little Pony Friendship is Magic: Baby Cakes
A/N: Welcome back to the MLP fans, and it's time for the next episode of the season. I will admit that my weekend wasn't bad, but it wasn't thrilling either, and I'm glad to be doing something I enjoy since work at the movie theater is becoming hectic because of the holidays.
Read, review, and enjoy!

CHAPTER ONE: BABY TIME!
It was a nice day in Ponyville and the Mane Seven were at the hospital and standing outside the baby ward, waiting to see the newborn filly or colt of Mr. and Mrs. Cake, and Pinkie Pie was really excited and really impatient to see the new baby.
"Can you believe the new baby is finally here?" Applejack asked, excited since the last time she got to see a newborn filly had been her own sister Apple Bloom.
"Cup Cake and Carrot Cake must be so proud!" said Twilight Sparkle, looking eagerly at the newborns on the other side of the glass.
"I'm looking forward to see the new baby," said Sunrise Blossom, beaming.
Rarity looked at the rows of baskets that had the newborn babies in them. "I wonder if it's a filly or a colt?" she wondered.
"I wanna see the new baby pony!" Pinkie Pie squealed, jumping up and down, and pressed her face against the window for a better look. "I wanna see! Which one is it?!"
Mr. Cake entered the nursery and stopped between two baskets. "Meet our son, Pound Cake," he announced, pulling down the blanket to reveal a colt with light gold skin, a tuff of brown hair was sticking out from under the blue bonnet, he briefly opened his dark brown eyes, and when he yawned, he flexed wings.
"Awwww," said the seven ponies with delighted smiles.
"…and our daughter, Pumpkin Cake," he added, turning to the second basket and uncovered a filly with light yellow skin, light orange hair and a small horn poked out from under the pink bonnet, she briefly opened her blue eyes, and yawned.
The seven ponies stared in confusion. "Huh?" Well, six of the ponies were confused.
"Two new foals for me to play with?" Pinkie Pie asked and gasped, overly excited. "That's two, two, two times the fun! This is the greatest day ever!" She dashed into the nursery with a party hat on her head. "We need to celebrate your birthday, babies, 'cause you were just born today! Woo-hoo!"
"Shhh," Nurse Redheart hushed her with a stern look. "The babies are trying to sleep."
"But I was just-" the pink pony began, but the nurse kept hushing her. "Happy happy birthday to you and you today-" she began, only to have the nurse throw her out with a thud!
Applejack shook her head at her friend and then turned her attention back to the new babies. "Now how in thunderation is one of them twins a Pegasus and the other one a unicorn?" she inquired.
"Easy," Mr. Cake explained. "My great-great-great-great grandfather was a unicorn, and Cup Cake's great aunt's second cousin twice removed was a Pegasus. That makes sense, right?" And earned several awkward nods.
"Aw, yeah!" said Rainbow Dash, flapping her wings so that she could zoom around. "Heh, just you wait! Once little Pound Cake there gets his wings going, he'll be all over the place."
"And be careful around Pumpkin Cake," Twilight Sparkle advised.
Rarity nodded. "Baby unicorns get strange magic surges that come and go," she agreed.
"Good news, is that the surges don't last forever," Sunrise Blossom agreed.
Sneaking back into the nursery, Pinkie Pie popped up between the baskets with a chocolate cake. "Quick!" she whispered. "Make a wish and blow out your candles! Which is easy, 'cause there are zero candles! You are zero years old, after all!"
"Shhh!" Nurse Redheart hushed her again, and the pink pony cringed, her face getting hit by the cake.
One month later, Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake were gurgling happily and giggling when Pinkie Pie popped up with a cake for them.
"Happy month-i-versary to you and you today!" she sang, bouncing around them. "I-can't-believe-you're-already-a-month-old. Time-sure-flies-doesn't-it-wow. Seems-like-only yesterday-you-were-born. But now you're a month old today, hey!" And the babies both blew party kazoos and let out excited giggling as the cake was put on a table for later.
"Are you ready for your favoritest game in the whole wide world?" Pinkie Pie asked, retreating to the doorway to the kitchen, and she began playing peek-a-boo. "Where's Pinkie Pie…? Here I am! Where's Pinkie Pie…? Here I am! Where's Pinkie Pie…? Here I am!" And soon Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake were laughing. "Here I am! Here I am! Here I am!" And she leapt out, blowing raspberries and giggling as the babies tackled her and they rolled around, tickling each other.
Mrs. Cake came out of the kitchen to check on them. "Everything okay in there?" she asked. "Who needs a diaper change?"
"Don't worry, they're fine!" Pinkie Pie assured her until she sniffed their diapers and made a face. "Oogh, I mean…"
Mr. Cake came out with two diapers balancing on his tail. "Oh, I got it," he announced, put the twins on the changing table, and he quickly and effectively changed their diapers. And he smiled as his babies giggled. "Is anypony hungry?" he asked while washing his hooves.
"Ah, no thanks," said the pink pony. "I just had a big breakfast."
Mrs. Cake came out of the kitchen with a tray that had two bottles on it. "I'm on it," she said and gave Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake the bottles, which they were soon sucking on.
Pinkie Pie impatiently waited for the babies to finish their bottles and check her watch. Her expression brightened when the twins finished eating, and then they began groaning. She thought they were making faces. "Oh, oh, you're making funny faces! I have one! Bleghhh!" And she made faces, too.
Mr. Cake chuckled. "No, y'see, Pinkie, the babies need to be burped," he explained, took the twins, and thumped them on the backs until they both burped.
"All set now?" Pinkie Pie asked eagerly as the babies were set on the floor. "Everything good? Okay, who wants to play again?" And she bounced away while Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake followed with excited giggling.
Pound Cake did pause when he saw a stack of blocks, which he knocked down with his front hooves, and Mrs. Cake picked him up before he could hit the blocks again. "Uh uh uh, Pound Cake, no pounding things," she tsked and he gave her an innocent smile.
Pumpkin Cake was following the bouncing pink pony when she stopped to put the container of baby powder in her mouth to suckle, but Mrs. Cake grabbed it and Mr. Cake gently scolded her.
"Uh uh uh uh, we don't chew on things, Pumpkin Cake."
"Except food," Pinkie Pie added, rejoining them.
Mrs. Cake gasped, remembering something important. "Food! Great cinnamon sticks, I completely forgot."
"No, you just fed them bottles, remember?" the pink pony reminded her.
"Not the babies' food!" Mrs. Cake yelped, alarmed.
"Gh!" Mr. Cake groaned. "The food for the enormously big catering order we have to deliver today!"
"Oh, with the new twins, we've been so distracted!" Mrs. Cake moaned while pulling on special saddlebags.
"Gh, quick, honeybun," said Mr. Cake, loading the twins into the bags, "we need to find a babysitter to watch the foals while we take care of this." And they hurried out of the shop.
Pinkie Pie bounced after them. "I could do it! I wanna do it!" she called after them. "Oh, the babies love playing with me, I'll do it!"
"I wonder who would be available on such short notice," Mrs. Cake wondered, ignoring the eager pink pony.
"Me! Me! Pick me!"
A/N: I will admit that I am a sucker for babies and whenever I get to look after my nephews, I enjoy every second of it. R&R everyone!
