"Mommy why does Greenie eat seeds?" Four year old Chris asked his mother. Piper and Chris were in the back yard of the manor, which now only the Wyatt family lived in. Piper was feeding the birds in the ivory when Chris was asking his mother why his bird Greenie a green Ring Neck ate seeds.
"Sweetheart it's what birds like Greenie eat," Piper told Chris.
"Hello! Hello Chris, Hello!" Greenie yelled.
Piper and Chris laughed. "We better get inside now Chris it's getting cold and it's time for dinner," Piper said as she took Chris' hand and walked inside. "Wyatt it's time for dinner," Piper yelled from the kitchen to Wyatt who was in the living room drawing a picture on the coffee table.
"Mom!" Wyatt yelled as he ran into the kitchen with his picture.
"Yes honey," Piper said as she took the plates out of the cupboard.
"Look what I made." Wyatt showed Piper his picture.
Piper placed the plates on the bench and took a look at Wyatt's picture and laughed, Wyatt made a picture of his family. "Wyatt why does Daddy have pink hair?" Piper asked.
"Because Chris lost the yellow crayon!" Wyatt said pointing at Chris.
"I didn't!" Chris yelled back holding on to his mother's hand.
"O.K. Boys. No fighting. Remember what Daddy said about you two fighting?"
"It's not good for Mommy when she is tired," Chris said repeating what Leo told them.
"He said that?" Piper asked surprised.
"Yes Mom," Wyatt said in a matter of fact tone with his hands on his hips.
"Mommy when will Daddy be here?" Chris asked.
"I hope soon honey," Piper said picking the plates up and heading to the dinning room. "Wyatt, Chris pack up your things in the living room before we start dinner."
As Piper set the table she hoped Leo would be home for dinner, she had news for her husband and wasn't sure how he was going to take it. After she was done setting the table she heard Wyatt and Chris yell "DADDY!" she knew Leo was home.
"Well if it's isn't my long lost husband," Piper said as she saw Leo walk in with Wyatt and Chris in each arm giggling.
"Hi," Leo said as he walked up to Piper. He placed Wyatt and Chris on the ground and then kissed Piper.
"Ewww!" They heard two little voices say which made them break away from their kiss.
They all sat down to have dinner. Piper looked at her two little men and smiled, she was out number by a house full of males.
After dinner Leo helped Piper with the dishes and cleaned up while Wyatt and Chris played for a bit. After the cleaning was done Leo took Wyatt and Chris upstairs for a bath and then it was hugs and kisses and time for bed. Chris always tried stay up as long has he could by making his parents tell him bedtimes stories and asking any question that popped into his head. Leo and Piper both caught onto his game so it's didn't work most of the time. Leo and Piper both kissed their sons goodnight and left for bed themselves.
Piper and Leo where in bed snuggling, Piper was leaning on Leo's chest with his arm around her thinking if Leo was asleep it could wait until the morning what she had to tell him, "Honey?" Piper said.
"Hmm," Leo said with is eyes still closed.
"Damn! He's not asleep," Piper thought.
"What is it Piper?" Leo asked as he opened his eyes.
"I'm pregnant," Piper said.
Leo had a delayed reaction, "You're pregnant... Again?" Leo asked getting up.
Piper and Leo both faced each other, "I got a phone call from my doctor today and he confirmed that I was seven weeks pregnant," Piper told Leo.
"I'm going to be a daddy again," Leo said with a smile.
Piper smiled back at Leo, "You're really happy?"
"Of course I am," Leo said pulling Piper into his arms.
"We have to tell Wyatt and Chris Leo."
"How are we going to explain to a six year old and four year old their mother is pregnant."
"I don't know, after all you are their father." Leo looked down at Piper knowing some how he was the one who was going to have to explain to his sons they their parents were having another baby. Just thinking of the questions they were going to asked scared him.

"Come on Wyatt your father wants to talk to you," Piper said walking into the dinning room with Wyatt.
Chris was sitting at the dinning room table waiting for Leo who was getting him something to drink. "Did you do something?" Wyatt asked Chris as he took a seat next to his little brother.
"I don't know?" Chris' little innocent voice said.
"Here you go Chris," Leo said place a small cup in front of Chris with juice in it. Leo took a seat next to Piper across from Wyatt and Chris.
"Well Wyatt and Chris. Your mother and I have called you here because we have something to tell you," Leo started. Piper took Leo's hand and smiled at him, Leo smiled back at Piper and then looked at his sons looking at him. "Mommy and Daddy are going to have another baby," Leo told his sons.
"We are getting a new Chris?" Wyatt asked.
"No son, we are not replacing your little brother."
"Daddy when will the baby be here?" Chris asked, he was happy.
Leo looked at Piper with a look that told her here comes the questions, "The baby will be here soon Chris," Piper said.
"Where is the baby now?" Wyatt asked.
Leo laughed, "Well the baby is in Mommy's tummy," Leo said patting Piper stomach.
"How Did The baby Get In There?" Wyatt asked surprised.
"Did Mommy Eat The baby!?!" Chris asked horrified and about to cry
"Mommy You Ate The baby! Why Did You Eat The Baby!?!" Wyatt asked in his little mad voice.
Piper looked at Leo not knowing how to explain her way out of this one. "No Mommy didn't eat the baby,' Leo tried to explain.
"Then Why Is The baby In Mommy's Tummy?" Wyatt asked. By now Chris was in tears thinking his Mother ate their new baby.
Piper was shocked and hurt by her sons' reactions and it didn't help with her hormones out of wrack. Leo got out of his seat and walked over to his sons knowing he had to explain fast before he had a very emotional Piper on his hands. Leo picked Chris out of his seat and sat to the table placing Chris in his laps facing Wyatt. "Mommy never ate the baby. The baby is very very small right now. Like half of the the size of one your crayons. Since the baby is so small right now the baby is in Mommy's tummy until it's big and then your little brother or little sister will be born."
"Really!" Wyatt asked as his face lit up.
Leo laughed at Wyatt, "You betcha big guy."
Chris wiped the tears from his eyes, "How will we know the baby is big and will be born Daddy?"
Leo turned around to Piper and handed his hand over to her. Piper got up from her seat and walked over to Leo, taking his hand she sat next to him on the table. Leo placed his arm around Piper's waist bring her close to him. "When the baby grows inside Mommy's tummy Mommy's tummy will grow big too," Leo explained.

"Well sweetheart, see when Mommies and Daddies love each other so much their love is blessed with a baby," Piper said.
