A/N: Two chapters, check them out.
Settling In:
They had been in Brazil for two weeks and everyone was finally settled in. The kids absolutely loved it. The weather was always nice and they were having a blast getting to know all the villagers and the clinic people. Callie and Allison had spent the time setting up their little homes which were much nicer than the ones in Africa, while Trevor and Arizona basically worked around the clock in the clinic. At the end of the second week, it was Friday night family time. Allison and Callie had told their partners that every Friday they would come home early from the clinic and have a family night, no excuses. On this particular night, they had also requested that they did not talk about the clinic. This was strictly a relaxing evening without work. They were sitting at a table out behind the houses eating dinner when the kids asked, "Can we go to that swimming hole tomorrow, pretty please?"
"I don't see why not," Callie told them, "we can make a day of it!"
Madison looked to Arizona, "will you come too Mommy, I miss you."
"Baby, I have to work in the clinic, but how bout I come for a little while in the afternoon?" Arizona hated that she didn't get to have as much time with her daughter as she would have liked. There was just so much to be done and she felt like it was never enough, but she needed to also think about her family and make time for them.
"Hurray," Madison cheered as she ran off to join Tyler in the sandbox.
"I'm glad you are going to come, she's not the only one who misses you."
Arizona looked to Callie and just got lost in her eyes. "I know, I'm sorry, I miss you too, all the time," she responded as she leaned in for a kiss.
"You two need to learn to delegate," Allison jumped in, "Not everything has to be done by one of you."
"Babe, we just want it to get done right," Trevor assured her.
"Ha Surgeons, always thinking no one else can do anything right."
"It is just a lot right now. After a few more weeks we will be home more, promise," Callie added.
"You better," Allison and Callie said together.
They talked into the evening as the children played, then decided they needed to put the rascals to bed. Madison wanted Arizona to read her a story and Callie went to do the dishes. When she came back to the room, she just stopped at the doorway to watch her wife and their daughter.
"Mommy, I want to be a surgeon just like you when I grow up."
"You can be whatever you want sweetie, absolutely anything."
Madison's eyes got wide and she thought for a minute, "Nope, I'm gonnna be a tiny human doctor with a real pretty wife, just like you."
Callie laughed when she heard Madison say she would have a wife and Arizona looked up to her. Yup, she did have a really pretty wife.
"That sounds fine with me. You need to sleep now. Goodnight bug."
Callie came in and kissed her forehead, "Goodnight little lady."
As they left her room Arizona chuckled, "I love that our daughter knows it is normal for us to be together. She is planning on having a wife because that is what a family looks like to her."
"Yeah," Callie responded, "But if she does end up liking girls, we are going to have some disappointed friends. Trevor is already planning her and Tyler's wedding."
"Ha I guess we shall see," Arizona said as they joined Allison and Trevor outside again.
Yesterday, Callie and Allison had gotten the hammocks they ordered and set them up in between the houses. Each end of the three hammocks was attached to one house. Their friends were already cuddled up in one hammock and Callie and Arizona took another. They lay looking up at the stars and talking about their day. Callie and Allison told them about the new swimming hole that had found. No one else was around and they had the whole place to themselves.
"Madison told us she wants to be a surgeon and have a wife just like me when she grows up," Arizona told them recounting the bedtime conversation.
"That's funny and Tyler is going to be very disappointed. He told us that he is going to marry Madison and have lots of dogs," Allison responded as they all laughed about that possibility.
"So Arizona and I are going to have to take a trip to Santos to get some supplies and pick up new equipment next week," Trevor said.
"Yeah she told me," Callie said pulling Arizona closer. She didn't like the idea of her going away.
"Yeah and we decided we don't really want to leave you two ladies here alone. Lets make a mini vacation out of it."
"Ooh we would love that," Allison said.
"Ya we wouldn't want to leave you two without your big, strong partners for too long," Arizona added.
"That sounds wonderful," Callie said.
"I even booked us each a nice little resort room," Arizona told everyone.
"Excellent," both women said.
…
After dinner, they decided to go back to their room early because Madison was really tired. She immediately crashed in her bed and her moms spent some time on the balcony. Callie brought out a blanket and two glasses of wine.
"Here ya go pretty lady," Callie said as she handed the wine over to her wife.
"Thank you love," Arizona responded as she pulled Callie in between her legs.
"So I have been thinking," Arizona said as she ran her fingers through the long dark hair of her lover.
"Oh yeah, about what?'
"I think I want to train Karev to take over the clinic."
"He would be perfect," Callie told her.
"Yeah I am planning on calling him soon to set things up. He will have to come down at the one year mark to get trained and be ready for the transition."
"Madison and Tyler will love that. He was always like an uncle to them."
"Yeah I think it will be good. I totally trust him to take care of my baby."
"So the clinic is your baby huh? I thought I was your baby?" Callie teased.
"You are my baby. The clinic is my work baby. Compared to you though, it means nothing." Arizona said as she gave Callie a loving kiss.
"Okay, just checking," Callie responded.
"I was thinking about something too lately," Callie started, "Seems we have been doing a lot of thinking."
"Well what is on your mind?"
"I want to have a baby."
"You want to have a baby? This isn't really the best time is it?"
"I know its not, but I was at the market with Madison the other day and there was the cutest little boy. He had blonde hair and blue eyes, it was like I was looking at you. I want that."
"Mmm," Arizona said picturing another baby, "I want that too, but we should wait till we get back to Seattle."
"You're right. This is not the place to get pregnant, but can we do it right when we get back?"
"Absolutely we can," Arizona agreed.
"Would you have the baby this time? I really want a mini Arizona."
"I have to say Madison is basically a mini Arizona, but I can definitely have the next baby."
"Sounds perfect. Thank you for making all my dreams come true."
"It's easy because that is my dream come true, to make you happy."
"Well, you are doing an excellent job."
…..
The next day they returned to the clinic and got back into their usual routine. Arizona had called Karev and he promised to think about it, but she was pretty sure that was a yes. She was sitting in her office after the call and her phone rang again.
"Hello, Doctor Robbins speaking," she answered.
"Hey Arizona, its Carlos and Lucia."
"Oh hey, how are you?'
"We are great, but we miss our grandbaby. Why did you two have to take her so far away?
"I'm sorry, she misses you too. Callie has been having her write to you and draw you pictures."
"We just got one, so we want her to come visit."
"That would be great, but we can't really leave right now."
"How bout you just send her."
"She's four, I don't think that would work."
"We will send a nanny to get her and bring her here and back."
"I think she would love that. When do you want her?"
"Next week, we have a bunch of tickets to events for her," Lucia said excitedly, "and we called your parents, they are coming down for a weekend to go to Disney World with us."
"Madison is going to absolutely love that."
"We thought so, alright we will call you tomorrow with details."
"Bye dear, say hello to Calliope for us," Carlos said as she hung up.
It was then that Arizona realized Callie would probably be mad at her. She should have probably asked her before agreeing to that. Actually, Callie was going to be pissed because they always made these decisions together. Maybe she should butter her up a bit before she told her.
