Vegas Nightmare-Ch 36

Kerri and Henry were walking through the store in total amazement on how much stuff a baby needed, Penelope grinned and said, "don't worry honey you two are going to be fine, it's just a little overwhelming when you see all the baby stuff in the store". Kerri took a deep breath and said, "I hope you're right momma".

Emily said, "PG is right, you two are going to be great parents", Henry smiled and said, "were you nervous aunt Em when Jack and the other babies were born"?, she walked over to him and said, "honey I was a nervous wreck but when they put Jack in my arms and I looked down at his little beautiful face I realized that all the worrying was for nothing".

Kerri smiled and said, "what about you auntie JJ"?, she laughed and said, "ohhhhh yeah I was definitely nervous and it didn't help that Spence constantly hovered over me". Henry laughed and said, "dad did that"?, JJ nodded her head and said, "when I was pregnant with you he would have carried me around all the time if I would have let him".

Henry laughed and said, "well I do hover but I don't think I'm that bad", Kerri kissed him on the cheek and said, "Henry just doesn't want me to overdo and get to tired". Penelope said, "your daddy was the same way when I was pregnant with all of you kids but even moreso with you Kerri", she grinned and said, "why more with me"?, she said, "that's easy, you were his first little baby girl", she grinned as her handsome husband wrapped his arm around her waist.

Emily smiled at JJ and Penelope and said, "they are going to be great parents", they nodded their heads in agreement as they followed the proud parents to be through the store. JJ leaned in and whispered, "I wonder how the nursery is going"?, Penelope said, "well Derek is suppose to text me when they are through but so far nadda".

Mia smiled and said, "ohhhhh guys look at this", she held up a pink onesie that said, "GRANDMA'S ANGEL", Penelope said, "ohhhhhh we are so getting that for the little one". Jaz laughed as she held up a pair of blue booties and said, "awwwww look how tiny", Henry said, "it's hard to believe that soon we are going to have two little angels to love", everybody smiled as they headed toward the blankets.

Derek stood back and looked at the wall paper and said, "I think it looks good, what about you Jamie"?, he nodded his head and said, "the teddybears look so cute dad, sis is gonna love it". Reid said, "I love the wall paper it just looks so sweet", Tony said, "okay me and Dave have the changing tables all finished".

Derek looked over his shoulder and saw Hotch just putting the mobile on the second crib and said, "it won't be to much longer and then I can send baby girl a text letting her know it's all done". The day had flown by it seemed like they had just started on the nursery and in a few minutes they would have everything finished and ready for the babies.

Hotch smiled and said, "how do the closets look"?, Derek smiled and said, "looking good, they aren't gonna know what to think about all the stuff we have in here already". Derek smiled and said, "I just love the mobiles over the cribs", Jamie said, "my friend Adam found them for me online", Reid said, "they are adorable", everybody nodded their heads in agreement as they went to work again so they could get the nursery finished.

Kerri smiled as she took a bite of her ice cream, ahhhhhh this was a great day wasn't it momma, we got so much done, had a great lunch and now we are getting ice cream". Penelope sighed happily and said, "it has been a great day honey, we all got to spend the day together. Mia took a lick off her cone and said,
"they always have the best rocky road ice cream here".

Jaz grinned and said, "the strawberry is better", JJ and Emily laughed and said, "butter pecan", Penelope laughed and said, "now now girls everybody knows that chocolate is the best", JJ and Emily laughed as they took a bite of their ice cream. Penelope pulled her cell out of her purse and smiled when she saw the text from Derek letting her know that the nursery was finished.

After everybody finished their ice cream Kerri stood up and grabbed her stomach and said, "wowwwww", Henry said, "are you alright"?, she smiled and said,
"I'm fine honey, the babies are very active today". Penelope gently rubbed Kerri's stomach and said, "it must be all the excitement of the shopping and then that awesome food and this delicious ice cream".

Henry said, "how about we get you home and you can lay down and take a nap"?, she kissed his cheek and said, "a nap sounds like a good idea, I'm completely exhausted". They all headed toward the car as Penelope winked at JJ and Emily and mouthed the words, "it's finished", the grinned as they got into the car and buckled up.

Kerri had been having cramps since lunch but didn't say anything because she was having such a good time with everybody, she hoped that laying down and getting a nap will make her feel better. A few minutes later they were pulling up in front of their house, Kerri laughed and said, "what's everybody doing here, is something wrong"?, Penelope laughed and said, "no they know how we are when we go shopping and they are probably just here to help us pack all that stuff inside".

Derek walked over and kissed the top of her head and said, "how was the shopping princess"?, Kerri sighed happily and said, "it was amazing daddy, we were able to get sooooooo much stuff". He said, "how about we carry this stuff inside while you guys head on in"?, she nodded and said, "thanks daddy, that sounds like a great idea".

Henry intertwined fingers with her as they headed inside, everybody grabbed a few bags so that they could get everything inside so they could show them the nursery. Kerri sighed happily and said, "well I'm going to go up and put the things away", Penelope grinned and said, "come on honey we'll all help so it won't take so long".

They all helped with the bags as Kerri and Henry headed up the stairs, Kerri was laughing and talking and then she opened the door and couldn't believe what she saw.
