Beca's pregnancy was progressing well especially since they finally got her morning sickness under control. Unfortunately, she lost a total of 12 pounds and was down to a very tiny 98 pounds when she stopped getting violently sick several times a day. Now they were working to get her weight back up where it should be. The small bump she had at her 16 week visit seemed to be getting only slightly bigger now that she was feeling better but so far she couldn't see any real difference from her pregnancy with Dylan. She and Jesse decided that since everyone was coming over for Dylan's 2nd birthday party and she was no longer sick that they would tell everyone about the babies.

So far, only their family, Stacie, Bryan and their bosses knew she was pregnant. The last time she had seen everyone was three weeks earlier at Caroline's birthday party and she had only had the slightest hint of a bump so no one even noticed. Now it was unavoidable, they had to tell everyone and the best way to do that was to let Dylan do his thing. He would get to tell all his aunts, uncles and cousins that he was not only going to be a "big brudder" but also that "Mommy got two babies in dere."

Jesse wanted Dylan's party to be as simple as possible and took it upon himself to have food catered in. He ordered burger sliders, pizzas, salad, fresh veggies and fruit and of course a birthday cake and ice cream. Beca wanted to make the cake but he wanted her off her feet as much as possible so she gave in thinking it would just take too much time and energy to argue with him about it. She had learned to pick her battles with him and to his surprise this was one battle she just wasn't willing to go toe to toe with him on because ultimately they both wanted the same thing, for Dylan to have a memorable birthday.


Jesse was thrilled that Beca agreed to throw a pool party for Dylan. It meant that he could run with the 'Finding Nemo' theme even though Beca told him that while she wasn't opposed to a Nemo party, Dylan should be the one to pick the theme. At the party supply store, Beca showed Dylan several different things from Cars to Spiderman to Mickey Mouse but of course, Jesse was bound and determined to get Nemo into the running.

Jesse found a huge Nemo mylar balloon and had the girl at the balloon counter blow it up. When he found Beca and Dylan, he put the balloon in front of his face (like his did with the record covers at the radio station) and started making Nemo 'talk' to Dylan about how much he wanted to go home with them. Beca just stood there and shook her head while Jesse made an absolute fool out of himself in the middle of the store.

Of course, Dylan chose Nemo and they started picking out things they would need for the party. Beca argued that they didn't need every item with Nemo's face on it but Jesse argued just the opposite, "Dylan has to have a piñata…every kid on the planet gets a piñata for their birthday Bec!" By the end of the shopping trip, Dylan had to be carried through the store because the shopping cart was so full of party supplies.


Dylan's pool party was finally here. Jesse and Dylan were already in the pool playing with Bryan and Colton. Dylan and Colton were thick as thieves and as inseparable as Jesse and Bryan. Beca watched from the patio as Jesse played in the pool with Dylan, the child had absolutely no fear, which scared the life out of her on an almost daily basis. They taught him to swim early on, so that when Jesse threw him around in the pool without swimmies he wouldn't be scared. Every time Jesse threw him, Dylan would swim to the surface and come up smiling. She loved seeing the two of them together.

"They are so adorable together." Stacie said as she sat next to Beca.

"They're my entire life." Beca said. "I never knew what it would feel like to have my heart outside of body, but I look at Dylan and suddenly I know."

"I feel the same way about Colton." Stacie told her.

"Ok…" Beca said as she wiped her eyes, "no crying today."

"So, is today announcement day?"

"Yep…can't really put it off any longer." She said as she rubbed her bump.

"Are you doing some big reveal?"

"No, we're just going to let Dylan tell everyone."

"Still no idea about the genders?"

"No…Debi said because I haven't grown much and they're staying little that it's making it a little harder to see. I go back in 2 weeks for another ultrasound so hopefully we'll know something then."

"I can't wait to shop!" Stacie said excitedly, "I hope there's some pink in your future."

"Me too. I told Jesse there had better be a girl in here. I'm not sure I can handle Jesse and three of his mini-me's." She said chuckling.


A few minutes later they heard the troops coming through the gate and into the backyard. Beca and Stacie immediately started helping the kids remove their cover-ups so they could get in the pool. Jesse, Bryan and the boys got out of the pool and made their way to the patio. Calling Beca over to where he was Jesse asked, "Do you want to let Dylan make the announcement now?"

"Yeah sure, no sense in putting it off any longer." She said as she kissed Dylan's wet cheek. Jesse pulled Beca into his side then whispered something to Dylan; he giggled and said, "Ok Daddy!"

"Hey, e'rbody looka me!" Dylan said. When everyone turned to look at him, he said, "I a big brudder!" Everyone erupted into cheers and congratulations. Beca looked at Dylan and said, "And what else?" Pointing to Beca's bump he said, "Mommy got two babies in dere."

Chloe screamed, "TWINS?!"

"YES!" Amy yelled, "My chances of getting a baby named after me have just doubled!"

"You aren't showing so you mustn't be too far along." Aubrey said.

"I'm 18 weeks and I do have a bump…see." Beca said revealing her bump that was hidden by her cover-up. Lily, Jessica and Aubrey immediately started rubbing her bump and Benji high fived Jesse. "That's really exciting man!"

"18 weeks?!" Chloe screeched angrily, "Why haven't you said something before now?!"

"Because I've been really sick for most of this pregnancy and we wanted to make sure everything was ok first." Beca said.

"Do you mean morning sickness?" Aubrey asked.

"More like all day sickness. I lost 12 pounds."

"Oh my God Beca...you don't have 12 pounds to lose!" Jessica said.

"I know... it was scary. I've managed to put about 3 pounds back on."

Lily hugged her and said, "Well, I glad you're feeling better."

"Thanks...me too."

"Can I call the babies minions?" Amy asked.

Beca chuckled, "No, you may not refer to my babies as minions."

"But the minions in 'Despicable Me' were so cute." Amy argued

Beca looked at Jesse and said, "Can you believe her?"

He laughed, "Well, the minions are cute and we do have cute babies."

"No minions." she reiterated.


Jesse took Dylan from Beca and said, "Are you ready to get back in the pool?"

"Uh huh!" Dylan said as he nodded. "Mommy come too."

"Ok baby, but we need to put more sunscreen on before we go in the pool." She tossed the sunscreen to Jesse then removed her cover-up to reveal a royal blue string bikini that looked adorable on her even though she had a bump.

"Shawshank…you have the cutest little prego belly. Are you sure there's really two babies in there?"

"Thanks Amy. I'll try to remember that in a couple of months when I look like Shamu and yes, there's definitely two in there." She put her hair in a messy bun and applied sun screen everywhere but her back. "Jess…I need some help with my back." She said as she picked Dylan up off his lap then sat down, putting Dylan on her lap. Jesse kissed her back and shoulders before he sprayed the sunscreen as Dylan ran off to play with the other kids.

Donald saw what he did and jokingly said, "Hey now…that's how you got those buns in that oven."

"Hey…at least I still get it. Uni when was the last time you got some?"

Uni hung his head and said, "a few months ago."

"How long is a few?" Donald asked.

"February...on our anniversary."

"Dude, that was 6 months ago!" Bryan yelled. "Hey babe…Caroline and Izzy are staying at our house tonight."

"Uni...you need to grow some balls dude." Donald said.

"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Wait just a minute!" Beca said throwing her hands in the air, "Why do people always say 'grow some balls'? Balls are weak and sensitive! If you wanna get tough, grow a damn a vagina!" she said motioning to her 'hunter' like Stacie did in college "These things really take a beating!"

"Babe!" Jesse said.

"What? It's true!"

"Amen sista!" Amy said high fiving Beca. While Stacie was doubled over from laughing so hard.

"Point taken Beca." Donald said,

Aubrey got testy..."I don't need any of you telling me how often we need to have sex. I have a busy career...when I get home I'm tired and I still have a lot to do, something's gotta give."


Donald leaned over and whispered to Jesse, "This is going to get interesting."

"Oh yeah!" he agreed.


Amy said, "Aubs, your crumpet should not be what suffers."

"Amy...that's easy for you to say. You live in a posh hotel with room service. You have no responsibilies."

"Aubrey, if you check out of your marriage, you can't expect to get room service." Beca told her as Stacie busted out laughing. So far, Beca had pointed to her hunter and referred to sex as room service, this day was going to be great!


"Geez dude...there's no end to Beca's witt." Donald said.

"Nope..." Jesse said.

"Funny shit!" Donald said.

"Always!"


"I have responsibilities...I just don't let them get in the way of freaky time." Amy said.

"Aubrey...Amy's right. You have to let loose, don't be so controlling." Beca said.

"Beca...how do you do it?"

"Jesse and I have always made time for each other...always."

"But how?"

"Aubrey, I can't believe I'm going to do this because I'm not one to talk about my sex life, but I will just this once." Beca said taking a deep breath and trying to get her thoughts in order she said, "Jesse and I both have a very busy careers but we have a very healthy, very active sex life as well."

"So, you have sex when you're pregnant?" Aubrey asked. Stacie, Lily and Jessica started snickering.

Beca rolled her eyes, "Yes Aubrey...I have sex when I'm pregnant."

"But you nursed Dylan for 18 months."

"Just because I chose to breastfeed my son for 18 months doesn't mean I took a vow of celebacy. We had sex the day Dylan was born." Aubrey made a face like she was disgusted. "Aubrey...you have to loosen up. Sex should be spontaneous and fun not scheduled and boring."

"I've always been schedule oriented." Aubrey said.

"Aubrey...you guys don't ever just have sex to have sex?" Beca asked

"No, usually just a couple of times here and there, if that." Aubrey confessed.

"Oh my God Aubrey!" Jesse screached. "We have sex a couple of times a day!"

"You have sex every day?" Aubrey asked. "Even on your period?"

"Ewe...no!" Beca said, "I didn't have a period the entire time I nursed Dylan. So we had 18 months of sex when we wanted, in addition to the 9 months I was pregnant."


Uni looked at Jesse and said, "Damn...you're one lucky bastard!"

Jesse grinned. "The luckiest. I still can't believe she's talking about this."


"Yeah...I caught'em once." Donald said as he winked at Beca. "Jesse answered the door with that freshly fucked look."

"You caught them?!" Aubrey asked.

Donald chuckled, "Well...they weren't in the act but they just finished a little afternoon delight, if ya know what I'm sayin'."

Beca blushed and shook her head. It was true, they had been caught.


"The absolute longest we've gone without sex is the 6 weeks after Dylan was born and as soon as I got the all clear... I pounced!" Beca told Aubrey.

"Longest 6 weeks of my life." Jesse mumbled.

"Aubrey, you have to stay focused and engaged in your marriage. Your career and your kids are great, but Uni will be standing next to you when your career is gone and your kids leave the nest." Beca told her.

"Beca, when did you get so...so wise?" Aubrey asked very sincerely.

Beca chuckled, "When I lost Jesse freshman year." Jesse tightened his grip on Beca and kissed her temple as Dylan climbed back in her lap. "This...right here in this chair, is my life. My entire life. And if that means sacarificing my job to keep it, then I will because my husband and my children mean more than a pay check. My pay check means absolutely nothing if I come home to an empty house. I've worked too damn hard for this to let it slip through my fingers in favor of my career."

"You're right...I did check out of my marriage in favor of my career. I need to check back in...if Uni will let me." Aubrey said looking like she could vomit at any moment.

"Aubrey...take some time off. Take a vacation. Spend time with Uni and the girls. You won't regret it, I promise." Beca told her. "We love you too much to lose you, Uni or the girls because your career came first."

"Aubrey...get that room service." Amy said as she gyrated with her hips.

"AMY!" Beca said as she hit her arm. "Stop it! The kids are right here!"

"Damn Shawshank...that's gonna leave a mark!"

"GOOD!" Beca yelled at her.

Uni walked over to Aubrey and kissed her. She didn't do PDA, the most she ever allowed Uni to do was hold her hand or lead her into a room by placing his hand on the small of her back but this was an exception. "Yeah baby...you can check back in."

Aubrey walked over to Beca and pulled her out of Jesse's lap, hugged her and Dylan, "Thank you! You're the best!"

"Anytime!" Beca said sitting back down in Jesse's lap.
