Thursday (November 28th/Thanksgiving Day) Morning 5:45am:
Brittany woke up and heard quiet snoring. She smirked and opened her eyes to see her 3 oldest children in her bed.
Santana was pulling her hair into a ponytail and caught Brittany's eyes.
"Morning." Santana whispered with a smile.
"Morning Beautiful." Brittany replied quietly as she slid out of the bed, "When did this happen?" she asked nodding to the 3 kids on the bed.
Santana laughed quietly, "I think they all came in around 2."
Brittany grinned, "What time is everyone supposed to be here?"
"They should all be here by 3. Dinner is at 6." Santana replied.
Brittany nodded, "I'm going to take a quick shower then I'll be in the kitchen to help."
Santana smiled, "Happy Thanksgiving, Baby."
Brittany grinned, "Happy Thanksgiving."
8:30am:
Brittany ran, laughing as James, Allison and William chased her in the backyard.
Santana and Bonnie were working in the kitchen, watching the scene through the back doors.
"They're cute" Bonnie smirked, noticing how Santana was watching the kids chase Brittany.
Santana smiled, "Yeah, they are. So why did your plans change?"
"We wanted to be here for the twins' birthday. I can't believe they're going to be 4 years old." Bonnie replied.
"I'm glad you guys will be here. The twins will be happy." Santana smiled as she began to chop vegetables.
Bonnie grinned, "I bet you're getting tired of us."
Santana laughed, "No I'm really not. I love it when you guys are here."
"I'm glad. We love being here." Bonnie said, "How would you feel if we bought some land between your and Finn's houses?"
"Really?" Santana asked, smiling.
Bonnie nodded, "Yeah. It's by far the best land for our money and we'll be neighbors. Brent and I looked at it over the weekend. There's a small house on the property that we'll live in till Eric can finish the official house. We want to put in an offer. Brent's talking to Brittany about it today."
Santana nodded, "I think that's fantastic and Brittany will too."
12:30pm:
Antonio and Maribel showed up with the Hudson family.
"Hey! Happy Thanksgiving!" Santana said, smiling as she held Diego's 4-month-old daughter, Vanessa.
"Happy Thanksgiving! Hey Vanessa!" Maribel said, taking the baby. From her daughter.
"Where are the guys and Britt?" Finn asked.
"Everyone else is in the backyard, playing football." Bonnie replied.
Finn nodded and headed to the backyard with Bella and Jasper.
Antonio smiled and took Vanessa from his wife, "We'll be in the living room."
"What can we do to help?" Maribel asked
3:45pm:
"Ahhh!" James yelled as he and Jasper ran after the soccer ball.
Brittany laughed, "This is better than football our usual football game."
Finn nodded, grinning, "I think I know what we'll be do for the next 13 years. By 18 they'll both get scholarships to college for soccer."
Brittany groaned, "That's only 13 years away?"
Finn nodded, "I feel your pain. They grow so freaking fast."
"Hey Britt!" Santana hollered out the back door.
"Yeah?" Brittany replied from the backyard.
"We need ice!" Santana replied.
Brittany turned to Finn, "I'm going to run to the store. Can you keep an eye on the kids?"
Finn nodded, "Sure."
"I'll ride with you" Brent said walking over tot Brittany.
Brittany nodded and walked with her father over to the garage. They both climbed up into her truck before heading to the store.
"So I wanted to talk to you." Brent said, "Bon and I like a property. It's between your and Finn's house. There's a house there but we want to have Eric build a bigger one"
"Wait, really?" Brittany asked, grinning.
"Yeah. It's a nice piece of land. We'll build a new house then Mom can live alone in the first house." Brent replied, "What do you think?"
"I think that it's awesome!" Brittany smiled, "I'll miss the old house, but it'll be great having you guys so close."
Brent smiled, "We were a little worried you all would feel like we were intruding on your life…"
Brittany laughed, "Pop, I love you guys. So does Santana. I promise, you guys never intrude. I'll let you know if that day comes."
Brent nodded, grinning, "Good to know."
4:30pm:
Brittany and Brent got back to the house and took the ice inside to the coolers.
"Thank you, Baby." Santana smiled as Antonio, pulled the turkey out of the oven.
"We're finishing up a bit earlier than expected." Bonnie added.
"Well where's Bridgett and Dani?" Brittany asked.
"They'll be here in about 15 minutes." Whitney answered.
Maribel nodded, "Once they're here, we'll eat."
Brittany nodded, "We need to get the kids in here to wash up."
"I'll do it." Brent said before going out the backdoor.
Everyone washed up just as Bridgett, Dani and Theo arrived.
6:00pm:
"Man…" Brent groaned, "I'm stuffed. You ladies sure know how to make a fantastic Thanksgiving dinner."
"Seriously" Diego mumbled. "I can't take another bite."
Brittany grinned, looking at Santana, who was on her second piece of pie. She and Autumn had both eaten for two making Brittany and Benny laugh.
Everyone gathered their plates and other dishes, taking them to the kitchen.
"I'll clean up." Brittany said, "Go. Stay off your feet."
Santana sighed but nodded, "Ok, fine. Shout if you need any help."
"I won't" Brittany smirked as she got started on cleaning up.
"I'll help you." Bonnie said as the others either went to the living room or left to go home.
Brittany began to load the dish washer while Bonnie started to put the left-over food away.
"Did you talk to your father?" Bonnie asked her daughter as they worked.
Brittany nodded and smiled, "Yeah. He told me about the land and house. I think it's awesome, Ma."
Bonnie smiled, "I'm glad. We're excited about being so close to you guys."
Brittany nodded, "When will you guys move?"
"After the first of the year. We'll be here till after Christmas then go back to Lima. We have to pack and handle everything there before we can move into the temporary house." Bonnie replied
Brittany nodded, "There's a lot to do. If we can do anything to help, let us know."
Bonnie nodded, "We'll let you know but for now, you need to focus on your pregnant wife."
Brittany smiled, "I know. It's hard to believe we're having another kid."
"No it's not." Bonnie laughed, "I always knew you two would have a big family. You girls are great with those kids." She said just as James walked into the kitchen.
"Mama." He mumbled
"Hey Jamie, what's up?" Brittany asked as she continued to clean up.
"I'm tired." He sighed.
"Where are Will and Ally?"
"Asleep on the giant bean bag chair in the playroom." James replied
"Why don't you go join them?" Bonnie asked.
James frowned, "Can I sleep with you and Mami tonight?"
"What's wrong, James?" Brittany asked, turning to face him as she dried her hands on a towel.
James shrugged, "I just want to sleep with yall."
Brittany nodded, "Ask your mother."
James nodded and went to talk to Santana.
"What was that about?" Bonnie asked, "He sleeps with you guys all the time, right?"
"Yeah but he never asks. The kids usually just sneak in after midnight." Brittany muttered.
Bonnie nodded, "He reminds me of you when you were a kid. If I were you, I'd talk to him. He's probably got something on his mind."
Brittany nodded, "Ok. I'll talk to him after we finish with he kitchen."
"Go" Bonnie said, "I'll get someone to help me finish up."
Brittany nodded and went to the living room, "James."
James was sitting on the floor, yawning as the adults talked.
Brittany walked over to him and crouched down, "Want to help me with something?"
He nodded and stood up. Together they walked to the master bedroom and sat on the bed.
"What are we doing?" James asked
"We're going to talk. You seem like something's bothering you. What's up?" She said, talking to him the way she remembered Bonnie talking to her.
James looked thoughtful, biting his bottom lip, before shrugging.
Brittany licked her lips, "James, you can talk to me about anything. What's going on?"
James sighed, "Danny Jones said that you and Mami are…" he shook his head, "Why do some kids have 2 mommies and others have 2 daddies and others have a mommy and a daddy?"
Brittany nodded, realizing what was going on, "Well every family is different. Some families only have a mommy or only have a daddy. Sometimes people say mean things when they don't understand something. I think Danny Jones has just been told that people who are different from his own family are weird."
James nodded, "What do I say when he makes fun of you and Mami?"
Brittany thought for a moment, "You ignore him. Giving him attention is what he wants. If it doesn't stop then I'll have a talk with your teacher."
James nodded, "It's ok to be different?"
Brittany nodded, "Yes. It's good to be different. I promise."
James nodded, "Can I still sleep in here tonight?"
Brittany laughed and nodded, "Sure. Go ahead and change into your pjs and brush your teeth."
James nodded and slid off the bed before running to his room.
7:45pm:
Brittany walked to the living room and got Brent to help her carry the twins upstairs.
Bonnie went upstairs and helped get the twins to bed while Santana took care of Olivia.
8:30pm:
James was asleep in the middle of Brittany and Santana's bed while they continued to chat with Ann, Brent and Bonnie.
"Honestly, I'm exhausted. I think I'm going to go to bed." Santana sighed.
"Yeah. Me too." Brittany yawned, "Ma, Pop, we'll see you guys in the morning."
"Night girls." Bonnie replied as she and Brent headed upstairs with Ann.
Brittany and Santana headed to the master bedroom and changed into their pajamas before lying on either side of James. He was still sound asleep, making them smile.
Saturday (November 30th) Morning 9:30am:
Brittany was in her home office when Santana walked in, "Britt."
"Hmm?" Brittany hummed as she finished typing out an email.
"It's really coming down out there and we have to go to the grocery store." Santana sighed.
"Alright. I'll go in the truck. Make me a list, please." Brittany replied, sending the email before standing and stretching.
Santana nodded and left to finish the list.
12:15pm:
Brittany and Brent walked into the kitchen, carrying some of the groceries.
"I'll get started putting them away." Santana said as she walked into the kitchen.
"Thanks babe." Brittany mumbled as, heading back out to grab more of the bags.
"How deep is the snow now?" Santana asked Brent.
"A couple inches." Brent replied.
When they finished putting the groceries away, Brittany walked over to her wife and pulled her into a hug.
"Gosh, baby, you're freezing!" Santana said.
Brittany nodded, "It's cold out there. Where are the munchkins?"
"They all went upstairs to play in James' room and Olivia is with Bonnie in the living room."
Brittany nodded and kissed her wife on the forehead, "You ok?"
"Yeah. I'm ok. Just tired. We need to take care of the G-I-F-T-S tonight." Santana said as the kids walked into the kitchen.
Brittany nodded, "Ok."
"Mama! Look what I drawed!" William said, holding up a picture of a beach with his scribbling marks all over it.
"It's drew" Brittany replied, "and that's awesome, Champ!"
"Mami, look what I drew!" William smiled.
"That's great, Will!" Santana grinned.
9:45pm:
Once the kids were all asleep, Brittany, went out to the garage under the apartment and began to put the toy kitchen they had gotten Allison together.
When she finished, she put a bow on it as well as the scooter they had gotten William.
There were a few other gifts that grabbed and took to the master bedroom.
Brittany walked into her bedroom, stretching. She shut the door before turning to see Santana in bed, reading a book.
"What are you reading?" Brittany asked as she changed into her pajamas, "The big gifts are done. I brought these in here so we could wrap them together."
"Ok. I'll grab the paper from the crafts closet." Santana said before getting up.
She went to the closet in the laundry room and grabbed the wrapping paper, scissors, tape and bows before going back to the master bedroom.
"Alright so I was thinking." Santana said as she locked the door and walked over to the bed, "after Christmas, we can start on moving Olivia upstairs."
Brittany nodded, "Works for me. We'll just move all of her stuff upstairs." She said as they wrapped the gifts.
"Yeah. I hate that she's going to be so far away, though." Santana groaned.
"Babe, she'll do great. We'll still be able to get to her if she needs us in the night. We'll connect the baby monitors so we can see her and the new baby." Brittany said, smiling at her wife.
Santana nodded, "I know but she's my baby girl."
"Give it a little time and she'll be crawling into our bed with her siblings." Brittany smirked.
They finished wrapping the gift and put them away before going to bed.
Sunday (December 1st/Ally and Will's 4th Birthday) Morning 6:30am:
"Mama!" Allison beamed, jumping up and down on the master bed with her brothers as their mothers slept.
"Mami!" William smiled.
"Wake up!" James laughed.
Britany groaned and grabbed William, making him giggle, "What are you doing?" She laughed as she tickled him.
Santana laughed as she sat up, pulling Allison onto her lap while James sat down.
"Its..." He laughed, "Our…birthday! Stop!" he giggled.
"What?" Brittany grinned, "It is not!"
"Yes it is, Mama!" Ally smiled.
"We'll we'd better make pancakes!" Santana smiled.
"Chocolate chip?" Ally asked excitedly.
"Sure, why not?" Brittany grinned.
James smiled, "Awesome!"
"Lead the way, munchkins!" Brittany smirked as she and Santana both go out of bed.
Santana went to get Olivia from the nursery while Brittany took the other kids to the kitchen. Bonnie and Brent were just coming down the stairs along with Ann.
"Happy Birthday Pierce twins!" Bonnie smirked making the twins smile.
Santana walked into the kitchen, holding Olivia.
"Morning Sweetie!" Britany smiled, kissing Olivia on the cheek as she mixed the pancake batter.
Santana began to puree Olivia's breakfast after handing the baby to Bonnie.
9:15am:
"Can we go play in the snow?" William asked excitedly.
Brittany nodded, "But you have to bundle up. Let get you all changed, come on." She said as she herded the kids upstairs.
Once they were all dressed in coats and boots, including Brittany, they headed out to the backyard with Rocky.
Benny walked over to Brittany as Autumn and Kate headed into the house, "Hey Britt."
"Morning. How are you?" Brittany replied as she watched the children run around in the snow.
"I'm good." Benny replied, "What time is the party today?"
"2pm. San's going to call the parents and have them bring their sleds and other snow toys. All of our winter stuff is in the garage under yall's apartment."
Benny nodded, "I'll help you get it all out."
Brent and Bonnie watched the kids while Brittany and her brothers got the snow toys out of the garage.
11:45am:
With Autumn, Whit and Michelle's help Santana decorated the house in balloons and streamers.
"The cakes are both done." Bonnie said as she finished decorating William's green birthday cake which was next to Ally's pink cake.
"They're perfect, Bonnie. Thank you." Santana replied.
Bonnie nodded, "No problem. What do I need to do now?"
"The party plates and cups are in the pantry. Please grab them…" Santana said as the doorbell rang, "while I answer the door."
Santana let Mercedes, Puck and Marley in with their kids.
2:10pm:
The pizza arrived and all the kids sat at the tables that Britt had set up.
After they finished eating they went outside, all bundled up and played in the snow while the adults watched.
"I can't believe the twins are 4." Antonio said as he and Brent drank coffee on the back patio.
"I know. They've grown faster than anticipated." Brent smirked.
Antonio laughed, "Don't they always. It feels like Santana should be 4 years old, building a snowman with Diego and Gabby."
Brent nodded, "I know what you mean."
Bonnie was in the kitchen as she and the other girls cleaned up the mess, getting ready for cake and gifts.
3:45pm:
All of the kids came back in and washed up before enjoying cake while the twins opened their gifts.
"Wow!" Allison beamed, opening a box with a new doll and dresses in it.
"Cool!" William grinned as he unwrapped a remote-control truck.
Brittany and Benny headed out to the garage to get the play kitchen and scooter. They put them in the playroom while they kids were in the kitchen.
When the children finished eating, they went to the playroom.
"Whoa!" William beamed, "Ally look!" he said, pointing at the lay kitchen and scooter.
Ally squealed and ran over to the toy kitchen.
Brittany smiled as Santana spoke up, "Happy Birthday!"
"Thanks Mami! Mama!" William smiled as he hugged both of his mothers.
Ally squealed, "Thank you!" as she hugged them after her brother.
6:30pm:
Brittany took a bite of the left over pizza and sighed, "I think they liked their party."
Santana nodded, "Oh yeah. They're in the playroom right now, playing with all their new stuff."
Bonnie walked into the kitchen, holding Olivia on her hip, "What else can I do to help you out, Santana?"
"Nothing. Thank you, Bonnie. You've been a huge help." Santana replied, smiling, "I'll take her so you can relax."
Bonnie shook her head, "Why don't you girls hide in your room for an hour or so? We'll handle the kids. You both look exhausted."
Brittany smiled, "Thanks Ma." Brittany said, grabbing a couple pieces of pizza and a Dr. Pepper before pulling Santana towards the master bedroom.
Brittany locked the bedroom door and they sat on the bed, eating pizza and talking as they tried to unwind from the day.
8:00pm:
Brittany and Santana tucked the kids into bed before going to the living room where Benny was talking with Brent.
"Where's Ma?" Brittany asked as she and her wife sat on the couch.
"She's helping Autumn with Kate." Benny replied.
Brittany nodded and yawned, "I'm exhausted."
Brent nodded, "We should all head to bed."
Brittany nodded, "Good idea."
They bid each other goodnight before heading to bed.
Britany and Santana changed into their pajamas and climbed into bed.
"I love you" Santana smiled and kissed Brittany on the jaw before turning over to go to sleep.
Brittany smiled and mumbled, "I love you too" as she fell asleep.
