Sorry if I put something in here about the London zoo that isn't right, people. I've never been there…

Harry's POV

At 10:00 in the morning, Harry picked little Teddy up from his grandmothers and took him to the London Zoo. They were going to take a guided tour of the zoo. Harry met with their guide at 10:15.

"Hello, my name is Earl Keaton and I will be your guide for this morning. First we will go take a look at the birds. First up are the Blackfooted Penguins. These penguins have about 70 short stiff feathers per square inch on their bodies. Their habitat is coastal waters and beaches." Earl said. He was a tall, skinny man with brown hair, long face, and brown eyes.

"That's a lot of feathers!" Harry exclaimed. Teddy, who Harry was holding, was staring at the penguins.

"Yes it is. Do you want to take a look at the Rock Hopper Penguins?" Earl asked.

"Sure." Harry replied and started to walk towards the Rock Hoppers.

"These penguins are very protective of their young. They lay only two eggs and only the larger one hatches. They live in sub-antartic islands." Teddy took one glance at these penguins and grabbed Harry's jacket and shoved it over his eyes.

"Its okay, Teddy. We're moving on." Harry comforted Teddy. He then jerked his head away from the rock hopper penguins. Earl got the message and led them on to the Tawny Frogmouths.

"These are Tawny Frogmouths." Earl said.

"Are they owls?" Harry asked. They looked a lot like owls.

"People usually call them owls. They make a grunting type noise that comes out as 'oom-oom-oom'. They usually live in woodlands and spend the day in trees well camouflaged and are nocturnal"

"Wois!" Teddy cried it. Harry wasn't sure if he meant 'noise' or if Teddy wanted to make it clear that he just went potty. Teddy then opened his mouth wide and Harry understood what he was trying to say.

"We can't make them make noise, Teddy." Teddy's hair momentarily changed color from black to red and back again.

"Did his hair just…no…" Earl said awestruck.

"No." Harry said a little too quickly.

"Wois!" Teddy screamed again.

"Shhh…Teddy…" Harry said. Teddy curled his fist and banged once on the fence. "Teddy!" Harry scolded. Teddy stopped banging on the fence. "Let's go." Harry told the guide. Teddy gave one more look at the Frogmouths and looked away. Harry suddenly heard screams coming from behind him. People were pointing at the tawnies. They were on fire!

"Gotta go!" Earl said and ran off to get help.

"Teddy, what did you do?" Harry asked, even though he knew perfectly well what he did. Teddy gave Harry the puppy dog eyes, the kind that only little children can get away with. Harry shook his head. "We better go."

Harry took Teddy to Diagon Alley to have ice cream. Harry and Teddy shared a double scoop strawberry ice-cream cone and traveled back to the Burrow.

"How are you, Teddy? You look skinny…" Mrs. Weasley went on fussing over Teddy. Harry sent a patronus to Andromeda saying that Teddy was at the Burrow with them.

"Hey, how was the zoo?" Ron asked. Ginny came and kissed Harry on the cheek.

"Fun! Teddy set an owl on fire! It was just peachy!" Harry said sarcastically. Ron fell off his chair laughing. Ginny was shaking her head. "What?" Harry asked.

"I can't believe you actually said peachy! My mom doesn't even say that anymore!" Ginny told him.

The rest of the day was spent decorating the house for the holidays.

"Ronald, Harry, there you are! I need your help with these." Mrs. Weasley sounded exasperated. She had put up the tree but she couldn't figure out how to get everything else on.

"Its okay, Mrs. Weasley. Those are muggle lights, tinsel, and ornaments. Aunt Petunia made me put up the tree, put on the lights and tinsel, but she would never let me touch the ornaments. I can help you." Harry said.

"Wonderful, dear. Oh, and please call me Molly." Mrs. Weasley told Harry. Harry took the boxes out of Mrs. Weasley hands and walked towards the tree. He wondered if they were going to put on gnome on as the star.

"Mwe halp!" Teddy cried bouncing up and down.

"Why don't you watch? You might hurt yourself with all the different things." Harry told him.

"Humph." Teddy said.

"So…how do we work these things?" Ron asked. He was holding up the strings of lights.

"Well, first off…" Harry said. He pointed his wand at the tree and with a swoosh of his wand there was a coat of real snow on the tree. "We have to do this. Now, we have string these around the tree. Oh, and make sure the cords are covered." Harry said. He began stringing the lights on. Within ten minutes the tree was glowing. He heard the front door slam.

"Victoire!" Teddy screamed. He ran over and hugged the little girl.

"Any bets on how long it's going to take for the two to get married?" Ron asked under his breath.

"Teddy? Do you still want to help?" Harry asked. He came back holding the hand of Victoire, nodding. "Go ask Mrs. Weasley to make you some popcorn. Then ask for string and two needles. Ask Fleur, yes Victoire your mommy, if she can help you. I'll show you what to do, if Fleur doesn't." Harry said.

"Popcorn?" Ron asked.

"It's a muggle thing." Harry answered. He got back to work on stringing the tinsel over the tree. Soon, it was time for the ornaments. He was careful handling the ornament box because he knew many ornaments are very fragile. He lifted one out and turned it over in his hands, disbelieving. It was a picture of him in a little frame, and written on the frame it said 'My seventh son'. Harry knew she thought of him as a son, but he didn't think there would be an ornament of him. But after he was halfway through the box, he noticed that there were many ornaments that included him, Ron, Hermoine and some that were just him or the whole Weasley family and him. He chuckled at a few. Like when he first had de-gnomed a garden. It was fun putting on the ornaments on the tree. He got to see some of the moments that the Weasley's cherished. There were also many 'first Christmas together' and 'new dad' or 'baby's first Christmas'. Harry laughed at the baby pictures of the Weasley kids.

"Well, that was easier than I thought." Ron said, trying to pick off all the tinsel strings left on him. Harry looked down at himself and saw that there was no tinsel on him. He helped Ron pick off the tinsel and went into the other room to see how the kids and Fleur were coming along. They had about seven strings done they were pretty long. Harry noticed that the popcorn bowl kept refilling itself. He took popcorn strings they had made and wrapped them around the tree. There, all finished. Harry thought. Wait! They had forgotten something. "GEORGE!" Harry bellowed up the stairs. George came running down the stairs. "We need your help getting a gnome for the top of the tree." Harry said. George and Ron laughed.

"Let's go!" George said, but you could obviously tell he was thinking of Fred. They started walking outside. "Let's get that fat one, right there." George took off running after the fat gnome.

"Okay…" Ron said.

George came back with a stupefied gnome, holding it upside down, by the ankle. He whipped out his wand and dressed it. He took it back inside. Harry noticed that a light snow was falling. George placed the gnome on top of the tree as Ginny walked in.

"Oh no, is that a g-" Ginny asked.

"Shhhh…yes, it is. It's really fat, too." George said, covering his little sisters' mouth.

"Wow." Everyone burst out laughing.

"What are you kids laughing about? Guests will be arriving soon and you need to be dressed!" Mrs. Weasley herded everyone upstairs to get changed.

Harry noticed that Mrs. Weasley had ironed his clothes for him. He put on blue jeans, a white t-shirt, and a nice jacket. Ron was wearing dark blue jeans, and a t-shirt that said 'Chudley Cannons'. Harry laughed as he thought that Ron blended into his room. They started back down the stairs.

They walked into the kitchen and sat down as people began to arrive. Harry counted the people inside his head. Mum and dad, Ginny and me, George and Katie, Ron and Hermoine, Percy and Penelope, Charlie, Bill and Fleur with Victoire, and Andromeda and Teddy. Wow, sixteen people.
