Disclaimer: Nightmare Before Christmas is not mine, never has been, never will. But I own the DVD and any OC's :D.

A/N: Hey Guys! So originally this was just a one-shot called "Boo!" but Rosie just stuck in my head and I needed to write more. So I'm changing this to a multi-chapter story, although they won't be connected. Just little one-shots throughout Rosie's life. As always un-beta edited. Read, Review and Enjoy. :)


Sally laid the little boy in his crib, tucking a blanket tightly around his body before tip-toeing out of the room; shut the door gently behind her.

"Mummy, why does Joshy sleep so much?" Asked a three year-old Rosie in a stage whisper.

"He's only little Rosie, he doesn't have as much energy as you. What do you want to do now?" Rosie had been playing and drawing all morning while Sally took care of Josh. Now he was having a nap and Jack was at work the two had the afternoon to themselves.

"Make cookies!" They had been out of cookies for a week and Rosie had been begging to make them.

"Oh alright. Let me guess, chocolate chip?" Ever since the Christmas fiasco the holiday towns had begun to share what they had with other towns, meaning Halloween Town got to have the wonder of chocolate from Valentine Town.

"Yes yes yes!" Yelled Rosie as she ran towards the kitchen. Sally cringed and listened out for the crying. Nothing. That was close. She walked to the kitchen to see that Rosie had already pulled out half the ingredients.

"Alright, let's do this."


The two had been at it for an hour; multiple trays of cookies were sitting on the bench waiting for the oven. Flour covered the bench, the floor, and half of Rosie.

"Look at you all covered in flour and chocolate!" Rosie giggled, she'd cleared a spot on the bench to sit and was now devouring a cookie, with the melted chocolate smearing on her cheeks.

"I'm home!" Called Jack from the living room.

"In here."

"Daddy, we made cookies!" Beamed Rosie as Jack appeared in the doorway.

"I can see that," He chuckled. At that moment Josh began to wail upstairs, indicating that he was hungry.

"You get him, I'll bathe her." Jack kissed Sally's cheek and picked up Rosie, holding her at arm's length. Sally laughed, yes her life was good.

~Fin~


p.s Josh is a mini version of Jack. And I know with Rosie technically being fabric the chocolate would stain but for the sake of the story pretend it's more like skin and will wash off. :)
