Becky and Mark looked at each other before looking back at their family seated around the living room in the conner house. Becky was carrying three month old Harris her niece currently asleep in her arms before passing her back to darlene. They waited two months to announce their news and now was the time. Mark stood up and placed his hands on Becky's shoulders before clearing his throat getting the attention of the rest of the conner clan. "So what's the news that you and ol stupid have." daralene said trying to get some type of reaction out her sister and brother in law while david lightly nudged her.
"What's the matter becky don't tell me you and Mark are going to move back to Minneapolis." Rosenne said while narrowing her eyes at Mark.
"No we actually have great news you…..see..we..uh... Becky you wanna tell em instead…"
Becky squeezed Mark's hand reassuring before guiding his hand to her abdomen. "Me and Mark are expecting." the blonde said while her husband wrapped his arms around her waist from behind.
Becky's eyes shifted from her sister and little brother, to her aunt and finally her parents. Darlene spoke up first, "Geez Becky give Dad another heart attack." Becky would have said something back at her sister, but knew darlene was joking around. Dj just stared at his sister shaking his head first Darlene and now Becky. Jackie smiled at her niece ,"You really did pick a good one Becky" Mark looked away rubbing the back of his head. He knew his brother was happy for them no words needed to be between the two of them the smile that David had said it all.
Roseanne and Dan were another story, their straight A daughter who had eloped with her idiot boyfriend now their idiot son- in law was pregnant with said idiot son in law's baby. "That's ….great Becky." Dan finally said after thinking it wouldn't be good for his daughter's baby if he killed her husband right that instant. Roseanne looked between her daughter and mark now there was no way of getting of him. She always thought Becky would see that Mark was no good for her. Even if she has learned to accept that Mark was a permanent part of Becky's life she still had her doubts.
Silence filled the room til a knock at the door told all of them that someone came to visit. Since no one made a single move to open it Mark went towards the door. The once relaxed older Healy felt his temper slowly rising out of everybody he would have expected it had to be his mother knocking on the Conner's door.
