Krista, Nora, George, Edwin all coo over Mackenzie.
All the kids were in the pool.
Dylan: he splashed me
Ryan: did not
Dylan: did too.
Derek:ok come here. Both of you time out 5 minutes. Ryan over there and Dylan over there
Nora: nicely done Derek
Casey: I agree. She kisses him on the cheek
Nora: nice of you to join us. Where've you been?
Casey: I had to pump for mackenzie's bottles so I didn't have to go into hiding every time she gets hungry.
Nora: oh ok
Brett:mom come on get in.
Mark: come play Marco Polo with us. Please
Logan: mommy you said you'd swim with us
Casey: guys, (Derek looks at her insistently and Logan gives her the puppy dog eyes) ok I'm getting in.
Boys: yay!
Casey kinda glares at Derek because she knows that eventually someone will notice her very slightly protruding belly.
Casey takes off her sundress and gets into the pool
Krista and Lizzie are over by the table
Krista: Lizzie can I say something without offending anyone
Lizzie: um ok.
Krista: is something going on with casey?
Lizzie:what do you mean?
Krista: I know you two are close. Is she hiding something?
Lizzie: what makes you say that,
Krista: she didn't come out with you
Lizzie: she just has a lot going on
Krista:ok. I'm going to go see if Edwin needs some help with the meat
Lizzie:ok.
David was holding Mackenzie.
Lizzie:hi David...I see you finally got your hands on Kenzie
David: yes. She so sweet. (He looks at Lizzie) babies are so sweet
Lizzie:oh no I know that look...we have 4 I think we are done.
David: oh come on...don't you want a boy.
Lizzie: a boy would be nice but I'm content with our four lovely girls.
David: ok can we compromise.
Lizzie:compromise how? Ok we'll compromise. You endure the sore breasts, the morning sickness, the aches and pains, the cravings,swollen ankles, weight gain, hormones, mood swings , stretch marks, and hours and hours of labor.
David: I want a dog. Plain and simple. a BOY dog. A HUGE dog.
Lizzie: and you think that because I don't want to give you another baby that I will give in and let you get a dog.
David: yeah. There is too much estrogen in the house. Please Lizzie if you don't want to try for a boy please let me get a dog.
Lizzie: fine. I'll think about it...the dog I mean
