Thanks everyone for the reviews

Thanks everyone for the reviews! I hope everyone was wishing for a boy. I just figured a girl and a little boy is the perfect little family. Anyway enough rambling from me, read on!

Meredith swaddled Liam Patrick Shepherd and fixed his hat the next morning after nursing him. Derek and she had finally decided on a name and Meredith thought it was the perfect name for their little guy. Weighing in at only seven pounds even, he was so tiny. Derek being that he wasn't around when Katherine was this small to pick her up, was very nervous of picking him up and supporting his head. Today Katherine was coming to see her brother. She was beyond thrilled that he was finally here. She fixed her blankets and put her back against the pillow, more comfortable now in her own pajamas. She heard a knock at the door and then Derek entered holding Katherine and a bear holding a miniature "It's a boy!" balloon.

"Hi sweetie." said Meredith as Derek came closer to the bed.

"Hi Mommy." said Katherine excitedly, yet quiet enough not to disturb her brother. "This is for Liam." said Katherine putting the bear next to Meredith's side, to examine her brother more closely.

"I'm sure he loves it." said Meredith as she pushed some of Katherine's lose curls fraying from her pony-tail.

"Kat did you tell Mommy that you saw the house." said Derek reminding Katherine to tell her Mother about her bedroom.

"Not yet. Mommy our new house looks like my doll house!" said Katherine excitedly. "And my room has a princess castle in it!" said Katherine.

"I'm glad you like it. When Mommy and Liam get to come home, we're going to stay there. That will be our new house." explained Meredith. "That's why you've been helping Daddy move some special things." finished Meredith.

"Okay. I like our new house. And my new brother." said Katherine as she kissed Liam's forehead. "I love you."

Two days later, Meredith and Liam were finally aloud to go home. Meredith had just finished getting changed and was about to change Liam's diaper and get him ready to finally go home. She came into the room to find Derek holding Liam and talking to him.

"So you're going to have to stick with Daddy and Uncle Mark and become a Yankee fan. Mommy's a Red Sox fan. We can't ever root for her favorite team." joked Derek as he saw Meredith come out from the bathroom.

"Isn't Daddy funny?" joked Meredith as Liam began to fuss and Meredith took him back. "Aw buddy what's the matter? Do you need to get out of this icky hospital outfit?" said Meredith as she laid him on the bed and changed him into a green onesie with little frogs on them, with a matching hat and finished by wrapping him in a green blanket. She then placed him in his navy car seat carrier and pushed the hood up because it was a warm sunny June day.

"Are we ready to go home?" asked Derek as a nurse pushed a wheel-chair into the room for Meredith.

"More then ready." said Meredith as she handed Derek the carrier and sat down.

As she was wheeled down she looked down to see an adoption agency taking a wailing infant into her arms. Meredith immediately felt her heart soften and immediately made the nurse halt her and she got out.

"Is there anyway I can help? I'm Dr. Grey one of the Heads of Neurosurgery." said Meredith as she walked over to the woman.

"Oh hello. Um well there's not much even I can do. Her birth-mother was very young. She decided to give her up for adoption. But the problem is there is a limited amount of room in the infant area, which means she would have to go to another agency, possibly out of Seattle if someone doesn't adopt her." explained the frazzled woman as she was handed a pink carrier by the nurse and didn't seem to know what to do.

Meredith looked at Derek with pleading eyes. He shook his head slowly, indicating it was okay.

"What if my husband and I wanted to possibly adopt her?" asked Meredith.

"Why would two people that just had an infant want to adopt another?" asked the woman curiously.

"Listen my mother was a surgeon. She was more of surgeon than a mother. I'm just trying to do what my mother never did. Have a healthy family. I just can't stand to see something this tiny, go somewhere by herself." said Meredith as she stroked the baby's arm.

The woman smiled genuinely at her after hearing this. "Well the first step is to take her home tonight. See how she and your family adjust to her. If it works out I can have the paper ready in the morning." said the woman.

"Okay great. Then we'll meet you back here tomorrow morning." said Meredith as she was handed the carrier and the little girl.

"Very well, see you tomorrow." said the woman as she let Seattle Grace.

Meredith sighed as she walked back over with the carrier and sat it on her lap.

"Are we crazy for even considering this?" asked Meredith looking at Derek as they continued to the exit.

"Maybe we are. But look at that little face." said Derek as he looked at the little girl, his heart melting a little.

"Well who could resist you sweetie?" said Meredith as they reached their SUV.

Shortly later, they arrived home to Izzie who was staying with Katherine. Izzie's eyes caught the pink carrier. Her eyebrows shot up as she gathered her things. Meredith signaled that she would call her later. Izzie nodded and quickly left. Meredith sighed as she brought both carriers into the living room. Katherine quickly came running in after her mother.

"Mommy why is there two babies now?" asked Katherine as she wriggled onto the couch next to her mother.

"Well sweetie. This little baby girl doesn't have a Mommy and Daddy and she would have to live somewhere far away if she didn't get parents. So Mommy and Daddy brought her home to see if she likes it here. If she does she gets to become your sister and live here forever." explained Meredith as best as she could.

"Oh." said Katherine. "What's her name?"

"She doesn't have one yet. Don't worry though we'll find a name for her." said Meredith as she kissed Katherine's forehead and took the carriers into the gender neutral nursery.

Since they didn't know Liam was a boy till he was born they had painted the room yellow and bought a cherry wood sleigh crib. They had white and green accents around the room. Perfect for a boy and girl. Meredith sat down in the rocking chair placing the carriers in front of her as Derek walked into the room.

"Hey. Isn't it time to feed them?" asked Derek.

"Yeah I can do Liam because he's nursing, but your going to have to run to the drug store and pick up bottles and formula for Lily." said Meredith.

"Lily?" asked Derek as he smiled at Meredith.

"Well I figured she would need a name. So I thought Lily for the first name. What do you think for the middle name?" asked Meredith as she picked up a fussing Lily.

"I'm not sure. Here let me hold her. While you nurse Liam." said Derek taking Lily from Meredith's arms.

As Derek sat down on the carpet with Lily in his arms, suddenly her eyes opened. They were shockingly a mirror image of his.

"Well you fit in already." whispered Derek as he rubbed her arm soothingly. He studied her for another moment and then said "Grace."

"Grace?" questioned Meredith. "Lily Grace Shepherd. I think it has a nice ring to it. She'll be the perfect little addition to our family." said Meredith as she smiled at Lily and Derek.

Decently long chapter if I do say so myself. Hope you liked the twist! Reviews are greatly appreciated!!
