Disclaimer: I only own the children (other than Torren). Everything else belongs to other people that actually make money.
A/N: Here's the sequel to the best-selling (not literally) story, Omelets Lead to Purple Wormholes! This one is about the O'Neill family's Christmas, the next one is the Lorne family, the third will be the McKay family, and the fourth will be the Dex family. I might do one with Daniel and Vala or Mitchell and Lam, but it's up to you guys. If you have any other preferences, feel free to put them into a review or PM. Without any further ado… O'Neill's Christmas…
"Jack, honey, wake up," a soft voice was saying. Jack O'Neill opened up his eyes to see his wife, Sam Carter, trying to get him awake. "Wake up!"
Jack yawned and sat up, rubbing his eyes. He gave Sam a quick kiss on the cheek before bending down slightly and kissing her enlarged stomach. Sam giggled and got up off the bed, walking towards the other room where their children slept. Jack could hear the screams of delight from his youngest born child, Charlie the second, even before the five year old came running out.
Jack smiled to himself and walked over to Charlie, scooping him up in his arms before he could get to the presents. Charlie laughed and hugged Jack. Sam came out of the kid's room with Jacob, his oldest son, and Janet, his only daughter, came out.
Sam sat down in a chair near the tree. Jack sat down on the floor by her feet with the kids. He handed her a present. "Ladies first."
She smiled and delicately took off the wrapping paper. Inside was a card and a box. She opened up the card and read it to herself. She smiled and said, "It's from Vala." She opened up the box and pulled out two pieces of paper. She smiled again and said, "It's two tickets for us to go to the Bahamas. She said that she'd take care of the kids while we're away, unless they want to have a sleepover with their friends."
"Isn't that nice," Jack said. He searched through the presents until he found the one that he wanted. He handed it to Janet. "Here you go, madam."
She took the present and looked down at it, pushing a stray blond hair out of her face before opening it up. The seven year old smiled and pulled out a Malibu Barbie. "Yay!"
"Janet, who's it from?" Sam asked her.
Janet looked at the tag. "It's from Teal'c."
At that, Jack and Sam found it hard to suppress their laughs. Tough, muscled, "Indeed" Teal'c had bought a Malibu Barbie doll for their daughter. That was something hard to believe.
"My turn!" Jacob said as he grabbed a present. He opened up the card first. "It's from Colonel Mitchell." he opened up the small box that had come with it. "Oh, sweet! They're tickets for the New Year's baseball competition! These tickets are all sold out!" He looked up at his father. "I get to watch you play with Cam!"
"Be sure to tell Mitchell thanks, then," Jack said before grabbing a present for Charlie. "Here you go, buddy."
Charlie smiled and undid the wrapping paper, taking no care in it at all as he chucked it over his shoulder to reveal a box with the label "FRAGILE! DO NOT BREAK IT OR YOU WILL SUFFER A LONG AND PAINFUL DEATH!"
Charlie's lip started to twitch into a frown. "Mommy, I don't wanna die!"
Sam stifled a laugh. "Honey, it's just a joke. You're not going to die if you break it."
Charlie's mouth made an "o" shape. He opened up the box and pulled out a Vulcan 508 Nerf gun. He screamed (high pitched for his five year old voice) and said, "!"
Jack's mouth opened up wide and he looked over at Sam. "Sam, dear, have you been teaching our son big words from Mary Poppins? I don't even know what it means!"
"Mommy said that it's something that people say when they don't know what to say. I'm so happy I got this and I don't know what to say so I said supercali--"
"Charlie, don't confuse your father with the big words," Sam said.
"He knows what it means and I don't?" Jack said, stunned.
"I just told you what it meant, though!" Charlie said, confused.
"I know you did but… never mind, I'll tell you when you're older," Jack said. "Who gave you the present?"
Charlie looked at the tag. "Vala."
"Tell her that Daddy's going to kick her butt later," Jack said in a sweet voice.
Charlie nodded his head in understanding. He then grabbed a present after searching and handed it to Jack. "Here you go, Daddy. Your turn!"
Jack nodded his thanks and took the present. He opened up the card first. "It's from Chuck. He says 'Sam and the kids should sit back a bit while you open this up'. I wonder what that could mean?" Jack wondered. He backed up a bit. "Can't be anything good."
He opened up the box that came with the card. There was a crank on it. He turned the crank and it played song that Jack had never heard before. (A/N: This is the real words to the Stargate SG-1 theme that I heard on a commentary. I thought they'd be cute for this.) "Stargate, it's a great big world. With a great big swirl and a step inside to another world. We're talking Stargate, it's a crazy trip. You can go quite far and you don't need a car or even a ship. There's Colonel O'Neill and Carter and Daniel and Teal'c. Look out for that goa'uld!" The song finished the lid lifted, a mini Air Force figurine with a gun popping out and squirting Jack with water.
The kids and Sam all laughed as Jack wiped off the water from his face. "He is going down."
The family finished opening up their presents before heading to the mess for a special breakfast. When they got there, the McKay and Lorne family were already at a table there. The O'Neill family went and sat down beside them.
Chuck and Amelia came over with Ronon behind them. They handed them some omelets and told them to tell them whose was better.
While the kids all told each other what they got, the parents talked while eating the omelets.
"You know what Chuck got me?" Jack asked. They all shook their heads. "He got me a jack-in-the-box that has a little Air Force figurine in it that squirts water out at your face." They all laughed. "And it sings this dweeby little song about the Stargate."
"Rose, eat it!" Cadman yelled at the newest member of the Lorne family, Rose. Cadman was trying to get her to eat the baby food. "Look, Daddy will eat it!" She shoved the spoon into Lorne's mouth. Lorne was stunned, but he swallowed it, holding back a disgusted face.
"That's really good stuff," he told Rose. He turned to the adults and said, "Good stuff that tastes like shit!"
"And you know what that tastes like?" Keller asked.
Everyone at the table laughed. "Pone!" Cadman said.
"Look, it's Teyla!" Four year old Meghan Lorne screeched, running to the entrance to the mess hall. Sheppard, Teyla, and their family walked in and were quickly stopped by Meghan, who showed off her new dress that her mom had gotten her for Christmas.
The Sheppard family plus Meghan walked over and took their seats. Chuck and Amelia walked over to them with omelets in their hands.
"We're having a war as to whose omelets are better," Chuck said. "Just rate it on a scale of one to ten, ten being the best; it'll make things easier." He placed his omelets in front of Sheppard, Aidan, and Eileen, while Amelia gave hers to Teyla, Elizabeth, and Joe. Torren got half of each. Amelia and Chuck walked away after.
"Open up," Cadman was saying to the latest edition of her family, Rose, who was born a few months ago. Rose opened her mouth and Cadman put in the spoon with the baby food. "Morning," she said, looking over at the newcomers. "Have a good Christmas so far?"
"Yeah, it's been great. I made Teyla cry," Sheppard said. Teyla punched him hard in the arm.
Sam looked up at him. "John, that's mean."
"Not in that way. She cried over one of the presents that I gave her. She won't admit it, though."
Stacy McKay snorted. Keller gave her a glare, a mother glare, which is the worst glare of all. Stacy shut up and continued eating.
Sheppard suddenly felt someone poking his side. He looked down to see Charlie O'Neill the second, named after the first Charlie O'Neill that died. "Can you tell us a story?" he asked.
Sheppard picked him up and sat him down on his lap. "Sure. What kind of story do you want to hear?"
"A story from before I was born. A good story! One that's got Daddy's sense of humor in it and Mommy's brains," he said. Sheppard smiled.
"I have just the one," Sheppard said. Chuck and Amelia came over with Ronon in tow. They sat down just in time to hear his story. "It was just an average day. Amelia was telling Chuck that she made an omelet that was good."
"I lied, sir," Amelia said, her face growing red. "I made an omelet, but it tasted like crap. My first real good one was at McKay and Keller's wedding."
"Okay, so Amelia was lying. She then told a story about how she blew up the dishwasher. All of a sudden, the stargate started up and swooshed open, but instead of being blue, it was purple…"
