"Jane, is Cooper out of bed yet?" Maura called from the master bedroom
"Yeah, I'm dressing her now" Jane smiled to the four year old who had long caramel hair, just like her mothers
"Why is Mommy running around so much?" The girl asks as Jane hands her her bag with her lunch in it
"Today is a big day for Mommy Coop remember what we talked about? You might be getting a baby brother or sister.."
"I want a sister.. Boys are weird"
"What about Uncle Frankie and Tommy.. Are they weird?"
Cooper shakes her head "I guess not.."
Jane smiles "Boys aren't that bad Coop, trust me"
Cooper nods "I believe you..Am I going to Nonna's?"
Jane ruffles the girls hair "No baby, you are going to day care. You will get to see Alex today.."
"Yay! I haven't saw Alex in ages!"
"You haven't seen Alex, Cooper" Maura corrects from the door
Cooper smiles "Yeah.. Sorry Mommy"
"Alright dear. Now, you ready for day care?" Maura said lifting the girl into her arms
Cooper nods enthusiastically "Will we have Kinder Music today?" She asks as they all walk to the car
"Ask Alex when we get there okay?" Maura smiles as the strap the girl into the car seat
xx
"Okay Cooper, sweetie, Your Ma and me will be back after lunch to take you home okay?" Maura says lifting the girl to the ground
Cooper nods "Mommy? Ma said that Boys aren't weird so I don't really mind if I get a brother"
Maura smiles and Alex walks out and takes Coopers hand
"Thats great honey. Okay, see you later" Maura kissed the young girl as Alex led her inside
Maura hopped back into the car and took her wife's hand "You are wonderful"
"I am" Jane smiled "But what makes you say that now?"
"You convinced our daughter that having a brother wouldn't be as bad as she thought. She told me she wouldn't mind getting a brother now because of you"
Jane smiled and notices Maura fidgeting with her wedding ring "Maur, don't be scared. Whatever happens we'll be okay. It might work this time.."
"It might not.."
"Yeah well, thats a risk we have to take, isn't it?"
Maura nods and squeezes Jane's hand "I'm so scared Jane"
"I am too baby. But we'll see what happens okay?"
Maura nods as they pull into the hospital
"Its only a scan Maura. Whatever happens You, Coop and me, we are okay"
Maura stands out of the car "I'm ready"
xx
The female doctor walks in smiling at Jane and Maura as she sets up the scan
"Okay Misuses Rizzoli, how are you feeling?"
Maura nods "I'm okay. A little nervous but okay.."
"All women are nervous at the start Maura. Don't worry, we'll see whats going on and we can see if you are pregnant"
Maura nods and slips her hand into Jane's as the woman starts the ultrasound machine
"Okay.." She rolls the scanner over Maura's stomach until an image appears on the screen
Jane stares at the screen "Is that-"
"That's our child?" Maura asks and the nurse smiles at the shocked women
"Congratulations ladies. You're having a baby"
Jane laughs and kisses the younger woman "Thank God for that!"
xx
"Coop, come sit wit me for a minute okay?" Jane asks and the young girl hurries to her mothers lap
"I want to show you a picture okay?" Jane says and Cooper nods
Jane takes out the sonogram and points to what looks like just a dot on the photo "You see that? That's your baby brother or sister"
Cooper smiles "When do we get him?"
"We'll get him or her in a long time. See he or she has to grow up.. Like you do? Ya know, you get taller? Well this baby has to get bigger too"
Cooper smiles "I get ya.. Where's Mommy?"
"She's asleep Coop.. She didn't sleep good last night so now she is sleeping"
Cooper smiles "Okay.. Can I go play now?"
"Of course" Jane kisses the girl's head and just watches her play until its time to get her bath and into bed
xx
"Did Cooper go down alright?" Maura asked rolling over to face Jane
"Perfect. All talk about Mommy's new baby"
Maura laughed "She really wants this. What made us think she'd be angry?"
Jane smiled "Don't jinx it Maura. Lets see how she is when our time is mostly about sleeping or feeding or changing diapers.."
"I cant wait.." Maura says excitedly
"Yeah.. Me either!" Jane says just as happy
