Weeks passed as Mary and Alex got settled into their new home. Alex seemed to be happier with the move since he had met Meredith. Mary was getting Alex ready for the day when the doorbell rang. She sighed as she looked down at her son. She lifted him out of the tub, and wrapped him in a towel. She ran downstairs with him in her arms and answered the door. She smiled seeing Ellis and asked, "what brings you guys by this early?" Ellis smiled and told her, "I got called in on an emergency, and Meredith was hoping she could stay over and play with Alex instead of go to daycare at the hospital."

Before Mary could say yes Alex squealed, "yay mer mer came to play." Mary smiled and told Ellis, "Its fine, let me know if she needs to stay the night or not." Ellis thanked her and said goodbye to Meredith before she left. Mary turned on cartoons for Meredith and told her, "I will be right back honey I have to give Alex his bath." She nodded and settled on the couch. She sat watching scooby doo until it went off. She got bored and went to find Alex and Mary.

She giggled when she saw Alex sitting on his bed in a diaper. She climbed up by him and asked "you ready to play?" Alex nodded and told her, "mommy is getting me clothes." Mary came back with his outfit from the laundry and smiled at the two. She got Alex into his jeans and t-shirt before setting him on the floor.

The two toddled off to Alex's play room. Hours passed and Mary peeked in and couldn't believe what she found. Meredith had Alex playing house and he was her baby. She couldn't believe how cute the two were. She didn't want to bother the two, but knew it was lunch time. She asked, "you two getting hungry?" Alex perked up and told her, "yes i am mommy." Mary shook her head at her son, and went to make them lunch. The kids toddled behind her.

She made the kids some chicken nuggets and chips. She turned to give it to them and she smiled. The two were sharing a chair and giggling at something. She sat their lunch down and told them, "eat up and you can go play outside." They quickly ate and went out to play. They played in Alex's fort for hours. By three they were wiped out. They came inside and lay side by side on the couch watching cartoons. Mary peeked in to check on them, and let them be when she saw they were fine.

After an episode of Scooby Doo the two kids were sound asleep. They slept up until dinner time. Mary didn't have the heart to wake them. They were snuggled up to each other. Meredith had her arm wrapped around Alex as he sucked his thumb and snuggled close to her. She placed a blanket over the two and made dinner. Ellis called her to let her know she was on her way. When she got there she was just as taken by the sight of the two as Mary was. She helped MAry finish dinner, and then woke the kids to eat. They sleepily followed their moms into the kitchen and climbed into a chair together.

They ate, and the two mothers watched their children. They were thrilled they were becoming best friends. Meredith smiled and told Alex, "your my bestest friend I had fun playing today." Alex smiled and told her, "me too mer mer." Ellis and Meredith left after dinner and Mary carried Alex up to his room. She got him ready for bed and tucked in. She asked, "did you have fun today baby?" Alex nodded and let out a yawn. He snuggled into his blanket and wrapped his arms around his teddy bear. She turned off the lights and flicked his night light on. She was thrilled her baby boy was so happy. She was glad they met Meredith and Ellis.
