Hello, now our story goes back to Lisa's biggest moment : her birth. I want to say thank you to all for reading so let's get on with the chapter.

Lori was lying on the couch being nine months pregnant was exhausting. Beside her was some bags of salt and vinegar potato chips, a pickle dipped in chocolate sauce, some cans of Pipp Soda, and a bowl of lima beans with a spoon stuck in them. She was watching a daytime soap.

"Oh, when is this baby going to come?", she whined.

Rita felt bad for her daughter, she been through the same thing, of course, multiple times and she tried to give some helpful advice. She walked over and wiped her daughter's forehead with a cool cloth.

"Any time, Honey", she said.

"I'm sorry, Mom", Lori replied.

"Sorry? What's wrong?", Rita asked.

"Every time I said something mean to you or yelled at you, or got in trouble, I think I literally understand what you went through ", Lori explained.

Rita couldn't help but chuckle at her daughter.

"Mom, don't laugh", Lori said.

"I'm sorry, I can't help it. You know, you weren't that hard labor for me, so I thank you for that", Rita joked.

"I wish Jimmy was here now, you had Dad to help you and I really wish this baby would have hers here", Lori said.

"Don't give up hope, Sweetie", was all Rita could muster.

The mother took the cloth from her daughter and walked to the kitchen to get more cool water. She did wonder from time to time what will happen when the baby does come? Was Lori going to keep to the plan? The cool water soaked the cloth enough then she wrung it out. The weather was beautiful that day a clear blue sky, Lynn Sr. and the kids were at the park having a nice summer day out and letting Lori have some quiet time.

"Mom!", Lori shouted.

Rita jumped dropping the cloth on the floor as she ran to the living room. Lori was holding her stomach in pain.

"I think the baby wants to come out now!", Lori yelled.

"Did your water break?", Rita asked.

"I don't think so, but it hurts", Lori said staggering in pain.

"Alright, I'm going to get your papers and get us to the car", Rita said calmly.

Rita got a folder and some extra stuff in a bag and grabbed car keys. She helped Lori up and walked her to the car she was renting in the event of the baby being born and the van not being there or to have a backup car in case the van acts like the van.

"Did you call Dad?", Lori asked.

"Not, yet I will when we get to the hospital", Rita said.

Lori sat in the back seat while Rita drove to the hospital on the speed limit because being pulled over would have made this worse. Lori was feeling pain she had never in the world felt before she started biting on a cushion that her mother had placed in the car. Tears ran down her face and she wanted to jump out of her body to stop the pain.

At the hospital, Lori found out she was in labor. She was given some medication to keep the pain down while she waited for the moment of time when the baby would finally arrive. Rita called Lynn Sr. at the park and told him the good news.

"No, I think you should stay there with the kids, and come by with them after the baby is born, we don't know when that is, it'd be best not have all the kids here while we wait", Rita explained.

"Are you alright by yourself, Dear?", He asked.

"I'm fine, it's kind of funny that I'm here and I'm not the one in labor", she said with a light chuckle.

"I wish that boy was there though", he said.

"For Lori's sake, I wish he was too, I would love it if he just ran in here to help, I'd have no questions asked", she said.

Lori was in her hospital bed when the nurse came in, she was a Hispanic woman with long black hair tied in a bun. She looked at Lori's chart and smiled.

"Hello, Ms. Loud, how are you feeling?", the nurse asked.

"I'm better than before but still, do you how long it takes to have a baby?", Lori asked.

"It depends hopefully the baby will want to come out and see the world soon", the nurse replied.

"Sorry, if question sounded stupid, I have literally never done this before", Lori said.

"It's alright, I'm here to for any questions. So, you are 15?"

"Yeah, really too young to have a baby, but what's done is done."

"Don't be hard on yourself, it's alright, I'm not here to judge you. I'm a mother, myself, to two kids."

"That's cool, are both boys, girls, one of each?", Lori asked.

"I have an older son, a teenager like you, and a younger daughter.

Rita walked into the room and said, "Lori, your dad will be here later, but I thought it would be best if we didn't bring the entire family to the hospital before the baby was born. Oh, I'm sorry I hope wasn't interrupting something."

"You must be Ms. Loud's mother?", the woman asked.

"Yes, my name is Rita, it's nice to meet you", Rita said.

"Same here, my name is Maria Santiago, I'm a nurse here at the hospital", she said.

"So, is everything alright?", Rita asked.

"Yes, your daughter is progressing well, she's under medication right now, but soon that baby will be coming out", Maria said.

"That's great, thank you", Rita said.

"If you need anything, just call. Also, the doctor will be here shortly to help."

Over at the Loud House

Lynn Sr. parked the van in the driveway and let his family out to go into the house. All the kids went into the house except for Leni who stood next to her father.

"What's wrong, Leni", he asked.

"Why can't we see Lori?", Leni asked.

"We'll be able to see her when the baby is born, we've just got to wait", he said.

He took his 12-year-old daughter's hand and walked with her into the house where all the others were sitting around the couch quietly waiting for the phone to ring it seemed.

"It's going to take some time, guys, you can do your things while you wait, I'm going to whip us up some dinner", he said.

Leni walked over to Lincoln and grabbed his hand.

"Come on Linky, I want you to try on something I made", she said.

"No way, Leni", he said.

"Please, you are my favorite brother."

Lynn Sr. walked into the kitchen the best thing to keep his mind off the matter for a while was to cook. He remembered when his kids were born how nervous he got waiting for the moment. He still wondered what he was going to make.

A few hours later at the hospital

Lori had quite the grip on Rita's hand as she followed the instructions to push and hoped the next push would finally be the baby.

"Mom, I'm never having another baby for a long, long time", she replied.

"Ok, just one more push, Lori, do it really hard", the doctor said.

"Alrightttttt", Lori screamed.

Finally, the baby was born the nurses cleaned her up while Lori gave a sigh of relief while Mrs. Santiago wiped her sweat. There was the baby girl already with messy brown hair.

"That must be the Cowan side of her, my kids never came with a full head of hair", Rita commented, "Made it easy to tell the twins apart Lana had tuffs of blonde hair and Lola was completely bald, I think oooh."

"Here's your new baby", Maria said as she handed her to Lori.

"Aww, you are literally cute, oh yeah welcome to the world little one", Lori said.

"Hello cutie, nice to meet you", Rita said.

"Congrats on your baby girl, Lori", the doctor said.

"Excuse me, I've got to call my husband with the news", Rita replied.

She walked out of the room.

"Alright, Lori, we need to some information for the birth certificate", Maria said.

"OK", Lori replied with a yawn.

"Don't worry it won't take long. First, what's the name?"

Lori thought for a while back to when she and Jimmy were talking about baby names there were two names he really liked, and he also thought would fit in well with the Loud family's naming scheme of starting with L.

"I have the two perfect names", Jimmy said in Lori's flashback.

"Well?", she asked.

"If it's a boy: Levi, if it's a girl: Lisa", he said.

"Her name is Lisa", Lori replied.

"I like that, what's her middle name?", Maria asked.

"Marie, it's a family tradition."

Maria wrote down the name "Lisa Marie Loud"

"I hope this is not a touchy subject and you can leave it blank, but the father's name?"

"This might help me find him", she thought.

"Yeah, Jimmy Nathan Cowan", she said.

"Are you sure it's not James?"

"No, it's really Jimmy."

"Alright, well that's it, do you want some rest now?"

Lori nodded and Maria picked up the baby. Rita came back into the room.

"She's getting rest now?", Rita asked.

"Yep, she tired herself out, here's your new granddaughter", Maria said.

"Aww, thank you, Mrs. Santiago," she said.

It was 3 AM and Lynn Sr. arrived at the hospital to find his wife, daughter, and granddaughter. In their room, Lori was sleeping and Rita was half awake herself. He was quiet as he walked into the room and tapped his wife on the shoulder.

"Lynn!", she whisper-shouted.

"Hey, Honey," he said.

"Where are the kids?", she asked.

"Don't worry, your father came by to watch them, I kind of figured you might need me", he said.

"Well, Lori's still sleeping, you want to meet the baby?", Rita asked.

"Yeah!"

They walked to the nursey where the newborns are kept and stood Infront of the glass window. Rita pointed out that the baby in the thing labeled "Lisa Cowan Loud".

"Her name is Lisa?", he asked.

"Yep, that's the name Lori picked, going with you-know whose suggestion", Rita explained.

[ Hours Later]

The large Loud family came into the hospital to meet their newest member. It was hard to miss this family of 8 kids coming through the hallways in the hospital. Also, joining them was their grandfather, Albert, who also wanted to meet his first Great Grand Daughter.

"I think it would be best if the kids didn't try to meet Lisa all at once, maybe two at a time," Rita said.

"I want to go first!", Lynn shouted.

"Lynn not so loud," Rita replied.

"Sorry Mom", Lynn said.

"Alright, Leni and Lynn go first", Rita said.

The two girls followed their mother to Lori's room. In the room, Lori was feeding Lisa while a nurse was helping her figure it out.

"It's alright to come in right, I want to introduce my other daughters to Lisa?", Rita asked.

"That's up to you Ms. Loud", the nurse said.

"Come in guys", Lori said.

Leni was awestruck by the little baby while Lynn was confused by what Lisa was doing with Lori.

"What's Lori doing, Mom?", Rita asked.

"She's feeding Lisa, Lynn", Leni said, "Mom did that with us."

"Yeah Leni is right", Rita replied.

"You guys can say hello", Lori said.

"Hey Lisa, I'm Leni we are going to have so much fun together I'm going to totes make you some good outfits", Leni said.

"Hi, Lisa nice to meet you, you won't be able to yet, but when you are ready, we are going have fun learning how to play different sports", Lynn said.

"When does Lisa get to come home, Mom", Leni asked.

"Soon, honey", Rita replied.

"Aww she's so cute I want to hug her", Leni said.

"Maybe later, Leni", Lori said.

"Hey, could you two bring the twins, they might as well go next", Rita said.

After the twins, Lori finished feeding Lisa while Rita brought in Lincoln and Lucy. The 7-year-old and 4-year-old were the happiest to see their newest family member. Lori let Lincoln hold Lisa in his arms while he sat in a chair, they moved closer to the bed.

"Hello there, I'm Lincoln, I kind of wish you were a boy, but I'll still love you and hope to teach you so many things I know", he said.

"I'm Lucy, it's nice to meet you", was all Lucy could say her shyness didn't allow more.

"I think she's smiling", Lincoln said.

"Hmm, I don't think that, huh it does look like she is smiling", Rita replied.

Up next, was Luan and Luna. Luan smiled at her new baby niece. "Hey baby, it's me your aunt Luan, or I should I say, sister? Doesn't matter I love you both ways, I hope to show you how to juggle one day", she said,

Luna was somewhat shy when she held the baby, but she was happy to her pudgy face. She could swear that the baby smiled at her.

"Welcome to life, I'm not sure what it means even for me yet, but I'm glad we'll still be discovering it together. I promise that I will love you and protect you, and play you some sweet sleep music", she said.

"There's my sweet granddaughter", Albert said to Lori, "How are you holding up?"

"Hey Pop-Pop, I am doing well", Lori said.

"Where's that baby, don't keep an old man waiting", he said.

Luna handed her grandfather Lisa.

"Well hey there darling, you can call me Pop-Pop, I hope to be around a long time to see you grow", he said.

A little later that day; Lori, Rita, and Lyn Sr. were getting the results of Lisa's first health exam. The pediatrician brought them to a small room to talk.

"You're the mother, correct?", he asked Lori.

"Yes, sir", she said.

"Alright, and you two are her parents, and here because she's a minor, correct?", he asked.

"Yes, Doctor Alverez", Rita said.

"Good, good, I'm going to start by telling you that Lisa is in marvelous health, I think she'll develop on track very well", Dr. Alverz replied.

"That's great!", Lori replied.

He handed her a chart of average devolvement of babies showing when about they do their firsts like laughing, sitting up, things like that.

"Now, don't worry if she's a week or 2 late on these this is more average. Also, has anyone in your family had to wear glasses from a young age?", he asked.

"Not really", Lynn Sr. said.

"Maybe on the father's side then?", he asked.

"Yes, her father said he wore glasses since he was one and his mother has had glasses since she was a young child too", Lori replied.

"That makes sense, have her eyes checked in a couple months we suspect she might have to eventually get glasses", he said.

"She's going to end up just like Jimmy", Lori thought.

"That's it from me really, if you have any questions, I'm here for you", he said.

[Baby Lisa comes Home]

The house was swept, vacuumed, dusted and baby proofed ready for its new occupant. The room that was formally Lincoln's was also ready with a crib and the changing table. They converted the old linen closet to Lincoln's room. Lucy was disappointed she liked to hide in there for her naps.

"Hard to believe this was your room isn't it, Linc?", Rita said.

Lincoln nodded.

"I want thank you again for doing something so kind to give up your room, I wish this house was bigger for you to have a proper room again", Rita said.

"It's alright, Mom, Lisa needed a room, and maybe she'll switch when she's no longer needs diapers and stuff", Lincoln said.

"Always my optimist", she said.

"If you have another baby, can it be a boy?", he asked.

"Woah Lincoln, I'm not even thinking about another baby right now, I think the twins were my last", she said.

Lori came in the house holding Lisa in her arms while her sisters crowded around her to see their new family member. She raised her finger on her mouth, Lisa was sleeping. They kept quiet as Lori brought her upstairs to her new room. Rita made sure everything correct and laid Lisa down. It was just Lori and Lisa in the room.

"You're asleep right now, but this is your new home, you'll like the family they sure like you. There's one person you haven't met I wish he was here to see you. I hope that he does come back. Anyway, that man and woman you saw with me they are my parents they'll be yours too I'm literally not ready to really be a mother. That doesn't mean I don't care about you, I'll be there for you all the time", she said in a quiet tone.
