Please read and review!!!! Thanks to HardyzGurl1for reviewing!!! I greatly appreciate it! Enjoy! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* She pulled into the driveway and made her way over to the door. She rang the doorbell and waited for a few minutes for Mia to come.

"Hi mom." Serena said and gave her a hug and kiss.

"Hello Serena." Mia said and returned the favor and stepped back so Serena could make her way in.

"Were the kids giving you any trouble?" Serena asked.

"Nope just hard to keep up with them at my age, so how was work today?" Mia

"You know, it's the same everyday except I'm off all this week. Shannon had called me and asked when the girls were going to visit and I was hoping that you would come too mom." Serena replied.

"Well as much as I would love to see Shannon I can't. Uncle Tom is staying over here while he's having his house fumigated."

"Oh, okay so I guess it's just going to be me and the girls. I sure wish you could come with us." Serena said.

"There's always next time and besides, Shannon's going to come help me rearrange the furniture in the rooms upstairs so I'll see him then. Oh yes before I forget your lawyer, Mr. Johnson, called and said that the papers are finalized and he just needs you to sign them. " Mia stated.

"Thank goodness that that's over with. Serena replied. They were carrying on their conversation when Rini came downstairs.

"Well I'm sure that I-oh Rini's up." Serena said

"Yeah, so you better get going and don't forget to call your brother when you get home." Mia said.

"Yes mom, don't worry I will." Serena replied while getting Mena's things.

Serena went over to get Mena who was still sleeping over on the couch and got Rini and headed towards the door.

"Bye mom, see you in a couple of days." Serena said while giving her mom a kiss.

"Buh bye now, drive safely." Mia said returning the favor.

She put the girls into their baby seats and drove off. 15 minutes later, she pulled up into the driveway. She unlocked the door and put Mena in the playpen and a sleeping Rini on the couch. She put her keys down and started to dial Shannon's number.

"Hello" Shannon asked.

"Hey bro, how are you?" Serena asked.

"I'm doing pretty good how about you. You holding up alright?" Shannon asked.

"Yeah I'm doing alright, so guess what?" Serena said.

"What?" Shannon asked.

"Well Pete gave me the week off and I thought that this would be a good of a time as any for the girls and I to stop by for a couple days. What do you think?" Serena asked.

"Yeah that'd be great, I mean I haven't seen them since I moved out. And I'm off for the week so it works out. So when are you coming over?" Shannon replied.

"Well when's a good time for you. I mean we're just staying for you know the most three days." Serena asked.

"Well how about you come tomorrow, sounds good?" Shannon replied.

"Tomorrow sounds great." Serena said.

"Okay then see you tomorrow." Shannon said.

"So it's set, see you then, buh bye." Serena said and hung up. She decided to make dinner now seeing Rini's still sleeping and Mena really can't make a mess in the kitchen.

"Tomorrow we are going to see your uncle. Are you excited? I know I am." Serena said while making baby faces to Mena.

Serena decided to make lasagna since they had rice last night. After an hour of cooking and cleaning the pots and pans she used, she went to go get Rini so they can eat.

"Rini babe, time to eat dinner." Serena said while trying to wake Rini up. Rini stirred a bit and stretched her arms.

"Okay mom, what are we having?" Rini asked.

"I made your favorite." Serena replied

"Lasagna?" Rini asked.

"Yep so come on let's go eat."

She fed Mena her baby food and gave Rini a piece of lasagna. Rini ate all of it and asked her mom if she could watch some television.

"After you have your milk, you can watch some TV." Serena replied.

Rini did what she was told and then hurried off so she wouldn't miss the power puff girls.

"Guess where were going tomorrow." Serena said.

"Where?" Rini asked not taking her eyes off the television screen.

"We're going to go see Uncle Shannon." Serena replied.

"Uncle Shannon's the greatest. He always has a present for me and it's not even my birthday or Christmas." Rini exclaimed.

"Yeah that's Uncle Shannon." Serena said. "After you finish watching the power puff girls it's bed time okay." Serena said while cleaning the dishes.

"But" Rini started.

"No buts young lady." Serena said.

"Yes mom." Rini replied.

Serena went upstairs to the nursery. She put Mena down in her crib and gave her a bottle of milk. Mena was watching her mom pack her things for tomorrow. She started to fall asleep when Serena was through. Serena noticed that Mena was asleep so she went to Rini's room to pack her things.

"And so once the day is saved thanks to the power puff girls." The narrator said.

"Rini its bed time sweetie." Serena yelled to make sure Rini had heard her.

"Coming mom" Rini replied.

Just when Rini had ran into the room Serena was done.

"Okay time for your bath and then its time for bed." Serena said.

She gave Rini her bath and changed her into her pajamas. She read Rini her bedtime story and tucked her in. She put the book back into the bookshelf when she noticed that Rini was asleep. She kissed her good night and left the room so she could pack up her things. It was about eleven o'clock or so when she was done. She went to the bathroom and took a shower. She changed into her nightclothes and switched the baby monitor on. After putting their bags by the stairs, Serena went to bed.
