Penelope called Tony after the team left for the case that they were on. " Our daughter started to move today. She did it right before I was helping Rosie start the briefing . I think she wanted me to have something happy in my day before the other stuff came in."

" Oh wow that's wonderful . I hope she will do it tonight when I am home so I can be there. Have you thought anymore about what color you want for her room yet?"

" I was thinking light purple with a little gold. Derek said to let him know when you're ready and he would make her a bookshelf for the children's books that Reid gave us."

" Well maybe this weekend we can. I'll get some extra blueberry beer so we can give him a case for the work."

" He would do it for free honey. He's been excited to meet the baby since I told him we were having her."

" I know he will be an amazing uncle to her. Have you thought about telling your brothers yet?"

" I guess I should. Maybe Louie will be excited. He was youngest before me of the boys."

" We have some time and she will have plenty of family. Gibbs says he is working on a project for her but he wouldn't tell me what it is."

" And we do need a name for our little bean sprout too." Penelope said.

" About that. You remember my first partner Kate who was also my friend ?"

" Yes you have shown me pictures and told the team about her when I had my day of the dead party when we were new together."

" What do you think of Kaitlin for her name?"

" I like it as long as I can have Violet in the middle."

" Kaitlin Violet Dinozzo. I like it but you know Derek is going to call her Katie."

" Well that's fine. It wouldn't be him if there wasn't a nickname involved somewhere."

" You're right and he will also spoil her too."

" A little extra love never hurt anyone. If he ever has a kid I bet he will be over the moon."

" For sure and the best dad,well next to you my angelfish."

" I love you sunshine and now I have to go. I'm needed in Director Vance's office."

" I love you too and i'll see you tonight. I'm going to make some nice pasta with pesto so we can celebrate."

" I'll bring home the sparkling grape juice and some garlic breadsticks ."

" All right now don't keep the Director waiting ."

Then they hung up .

Penelope smiled. She had found a recipe for a blueberry cobbler that she wanted to try. He liked blueberry desserts and didn't have them often. This seemed like the perfect day for a treat for them both. Any extra could go to his team and hers as well.

Two months later: Penelope winced as Kaitlin poked her in the rib with her elbow. " Easy little one, mama has to be on her feet for just a little while. I know you want some of Uncle Dave's cannoli but let me go down the hall and get one first please."

Penelope had switched to flat shoes because heels made her lower back ache now. She went into the makeshift kitchen and got one of Dave's homemade cannolis from the refrigerator. She put it on a paper plate to take back to her lair. Today she and Rosie had been digitizing Hotch's old files so that Derek had more space in his office.

She took a bite of the sweet treat and exhaled. He always put caramel in them when he made them well at least for her.

Dave walked into the room then. " I think you get more radiant everyday Penelope. I see the bambina wanted some cannoli?"

" She did. Gave me a not so gentle nudge in the ribs before I got in here to get one."

" How was your blood pressure at the doctors yesterday?"

" Still a little above where she would like it to be. They are watching it and they want me to stay off my feet when I can. I'm trying to get at least another month in. After 28 weeks a baby born early has a better chance but i'm hoping it won't come to that."

Dave said " Me either. She's fiesty like her mother just hold on to that ."

" I will because I want to have a baby shower for her and get all kinds of girl things. Plus there will be pink punch and some good other food there."

" I'm making lasagna. And no you may not argue, spinach and with meat."

" Well all right then."

Penelope took her cannoli back to her lair then. " This little girl is going to be well fed for sure."

" That's how it's supposed to be when you have a family kitten."

This is the part before the baby is going to be born and the end on a happy note. I didn't want to go into a whole lot about the pregnancy. And there will be more Tony and Penelope stuff to come because I have fun writing them when I get an idea. Thank you for reading all of my stories those that do. And Dustytiger who listens to my wild ideas when I need that as well.
