"I'll Go Mom" Alice said as she straightened her top. Jasmine had finished her milk so I put her on my shoulder and walked to the door.
"Nanna, Happy Birthday Nanna" Mason shouted. Running at me and wrapping his arms around my legs
"Hi Mason, thank you darling" I said patting his on the back.
"Nanna cuddles?" Little Elizabeth said in a little voice with her arms stretched out from my middle son's arms. Edward Anthony Cullen
"In a minute baby I promise" Elizabeth's eyes then glassed over with tears as she started to cry.
"Lets go outside sit around the pool for a bit, the kids can play and we can catch up, I can put Miss Jasmine in her bouncy chair and have my cuddle with Miss Elizabeth" I said as I smiled at Elizabeth, her head in Edward's shoulder crying.
As we made our way out to the pool I sat in the deck chair Alice brought out the bouncy chair with the little umbrella I placed Jasmine in a she was quite happy. I walked over to Edward and opened my arms to Elizabeth and she practicality jumped into them, nuzzling her face in my chest.
Edward went back in to help Bella his wife with the rest of their children, Alice was now changed and in the water with everyone else. Elizabeth stared to play with my hair, which reminded of Edward as a toddler.
Edward is our middle child and is 26. He is 6'2' he was also well built but not so much as Emmett, he had my bronze coloured but you can do nothing with it, he also has Carlisle facial structure and strong jaw. He has also inherited my eye colour. He worked with Carlisle as well he is a surgeon. His wife Isabella or Bella is 25 is petit at 5'5'. She has long chocolate brown hair and door brown eyes to match. She is a writer and has written several very successful. They met is the hospital on one of her many trips to the hospital, she is accident prone. They have been married for 6 years and live across the street from Rose and Emmett.
I remember his birth very well. I had Edward at home in our bathtub. I was 38 weeks along and had been having twinges all day so I decided to take a bath. Carlisle was with Emmett downstairs. It was then I felt it like someone had pulled the plug in me, I looked down and I could see blood in the water so I climbed out and called Carlisle. By than my contraptions had started and didn't start slow and steady they just went to 2 to 3 minutes apart. Carlisle came running in with Emmett in his arms, I told him what had happened, and so he put Emmett in the playroom with a film and come back to me.
He checked me and said we ere not going to make the hospital, so he phoned them and explained the situation. They sent and ambulance. By the time the ambulance came 15 minutes later I had another son.
I was brought out of my memories with Elizabeth Pulling my hair.
"Ow Sweetie, be careful" I told her gently.
"Sorrwy Nanna" She mumbled
Elizabeth May Was 3 and had Edwards hair colour and craziness but Bella's eyes. She was Edward and Bella 3rd child. Their first was Vanessa Jayne she was 6. She was Edward through and through hair, eyes the lot. Then there was Mason Thomas, he was 4.5. He had Bella's hair but Edward's eyes. Next is Elizabeth. Then there is Charlotte or Lottie Louisa she is 18 months and is blonde and blue after Carlisle. That was a big shock to all of us. Then there is baby Emma Olivia she is 3 months old and looks to be going to the same way as Lottie Blonde and Blue.
Bella is like Alice and is still feeding Lottie and Elizabeth as well as Emma. Rose, Alice and Bella also co feed each others babies, which sometimes helps.
Bella came out in her bathing costume with Emma putting her next to Jasmine.
"She's still not sleeping?" Bella said looking a wide awake Jasmine.
"No that's why they are sleeping upstairs, trying to catch up on some, I think I may suggest that we keep her for tonight, so they can get a whole night sleep in stead of 2 hours "I said running my fingers through Elizabeth's hair.
"I hope they take the offer up they do need it" Bella got cut of by Elizabeth
"Mamma want bebe" Elizabeth said quietly, she was tired and bebe was the children word for mommy milk.
I lifted her over to Bella who pulled down her swim suit, and got Elizabeth situated.
"This doesn't bother you does it Esme?" Bella asked her blush showing.
"Of course not, why would you say that?" I said shocked. It was not something I did not I don't criticize other people.
"I get some strange looks from other people, when Elizabeth or Lottie starts asking for bebe. I don't know who Alice does it?" She said looking down at Elizabeth feeding but she had fallen asleep.
"Do what?" Alice asked coming over to join us.
"This, feeding in public?" Bella said justifying around herself.
"Easy, I just ignore them, and if they say anything I tell them to mind their own business." Alice said and grossed her arms as to make a statement.
"Bella these are you children how you choose to bring them up is entirely up to you, and Alice is right everybody should just but out" I said to her. She bit her bottom lip but smiled.
"Right, I'm going to set up lunch, Mom where to you want the food put out here or on the breakfast bar?" Alice asked
"Oh the breakfast bar will be good, I give you a hand" I said as I tried to get up, Alice pushed my shoulders down
"No, No, Mom it's you're birthday I can do it" She said as she walked back into the house.
As I turned to check on Jasmine and Emma, Rosalie walked in, looking better, with Emmett few minutes later with Ethan and his sippy cup.
"Hi Bella, oh Esme you should have woken us when everybody arrived" Rosalie said as she sat down and picked up Jasmine, Emmett and Ethan when to the pool, to sit on the edge.
"Oh hush, you needed it, it's not like you don't see each other every day now is it. Anyway how to you feel?" I asked looking over at her; at least the dark circles had gone down.
Rose smiled meekly" I feel better thank you Esme. It was great to get a decent sleep even if it was a couple of hours. Oh wait does she need feeding?" She said looking up
"Not for another hour, I gave her a bottle, I hope you don't mind, I brought her up and you were out, so I took initiative." I said
"Oh no that's fine, I just need to go pump them as I'm about to pop, Can you take her for me?" Rosalie said as she handed me Jasmine, who was still wide awake, and cooing at her mother.
"No, I've got her, that reminds me, I was going to say do you want us to take the kids tonight, so could have a break, we did for Alice and Bella, what do you think?" I said as I took Jasmine.
"Oh Esme, that would fantastic. Just to have a night where I can sleep the whole time. I'm in heaven. You sure though?
"No that's fine we don't mind" She leaned down to give you a quick hug and whispered 'Thanks'.
"Right, lunch is all up and ready, I have set out plates for the kids, already done, Mom would Dad get the big umbrella out so we set the kids up?" Alice questioned.
"Sure go ask him, I'll get the blanks out, Emmett come make yourself useful" I called
"Yes Mom?" He said, putting Ethan down in the deck chair next to Bella.
"Could you please get the blankets and extra towels out of the pool house and get them on the grass please?"
"Sure no problem" He said a he walked off. Just then Rosalie came back and took Jasmine off me, so I went to help Emmett.
