Today is the day!  Ginny excitedly thought as she spelled the hair off her legs. She took her left leg down from the edge of the chair in her dressing room and put her right leg on it. She charmed the hair off that leg and gave it a quick rub to make sure the spell had been nice and close. It was as smooth as Kaitlyn's bottom.

She took her right leg off the chair and began working on her bikini area. As she was spelling the area, she decided to leave a surprise for Draco to find…should he try to get in her knickers (or toga as it was) tonight. She ended the current spell, modified it slightly and re-completed the spell. She looked in the mirror and was delighted to see that the charm had worked perfectly. She laughed lightly to herself and began dressing.

She pulled on her silk, thong knickers in crème. She followed them with a matching front clasp bra. She pulled on some sheer, nude stockings and pulled them up high on her waist. A woman with three kids and another on the way could use all the help she could get in the tummy flattening department. She slipped on a black silk blouse and buttoned it up. She drew a red pencil skirt off a hangar. She threw it over her head and slid it down. Her shirt was neatly tucked in and the skirt fell beautifully in to place. She zipped up the zipper and closed the top with the hook. She slid her hands down the skirt to help smooth any non-existing wrinkles. In reality, it was just a habit. The House Elves would kick each other to death before they allowed wrinkles in the Malfoy's clothes. Ginny snorted aloud at this.

She spritzed "Aqua di Gio" on her wrists and lightly rubbed them together in a circular motion. Afterwards, she brought her right wrist to her nose and inhaled. She loved the smell of the perfume that Draco had first bought for her 19th birthday; now, it was a staple birthday gift. She was not trying to make it sound as if Draco was unimaginative; rather he simply liked to give her lots of gifts. Besides, she certainly did not mind being doted upon; it was rather nice to feel cherished and loved.

She slipped on a pair of fairly simple, but expensive, low heeled dress shoes. They were this season's latest look from the designer witch Wendi Winkle. They were charmed to feel like your feet were wrapped in cotton. Ginny wiggled her toes. They felt marvelous.

She went to her night stand and opened it. She retrieved the anti-nauseate potion and took a long swallow. No time to be sick this morning too much to do.   

She walked out of the master bedroom and down the hall to the nursery. She smiled at what she saw. Flora was reading Katie a book. Katie was intently listening and bouncing up and down in her crib as much as her small feet and legs would let her.

Flora stopped reading when she noticed Ginny standing in the doorway to the nursery. At first, Katie looked like she was going to cry because Flora had stopped reading, but then she noticed her mother. She squealed in delight.

Ginny walked over to Katie and gave her a kiss on the top of her head. Then, she reached out and picked Katie up. She nuzzled Katie to her and then sat her on her hip. Together, mother and daughter headed downstairs.

Draco was already in his study working on some last minute business opportunities that would be discussed at the evening's gathering. He made a few more notes, set the papers to the side and sat back in his chair. He yawned behind his hand. He looked up and saw his two favorite girls watching him from the doorway.  

Ginny leaned over to Katie's ear and whispered, "Say hello to Daddy, Katie."

Katie laughed gaily and raised her small left hand and waved at her daddy. Draco chuckled at his daughter and wife. He stood up and walked to them.

Kaitlyn, seeing that her daddy was coming over, began bouncing in her mother's arm. Seeing how excited she was to see him, Draco held out his arms to his daughter once he was standing in front of Katie and Ginny. Kaitlyn practically jumped into Draco's arms.

Draco nuzzled his daughter and gave her a sweet kiss on the cheek. Katie mimicked his actions and returned the kiss, however; hers landed on the underside of his chin.

Ginny smiled at the affection between father and daughter.

"Well, Miss Malfoy, you are certainly very pretty today. Your hair is just exquisite. The ponytail on the top of your head is all the rage this year. I simply must know who did your hair? And that turquoise and white, flowery dress highlights your big, chocolate colored eyes."

Ginny and Katie giggled at Draco's antics.

Kaitlyn looked at her father and said, "Da Da funny!"

Ginny and Draco's mouths dropped open.

"She…she…Ginny, she…"

"She spoke!" Ginny squealed, "What a smart girl you are, learning to talk at ten months!"

"Of course she is; she is a Malfoy" Draco said in his most haughty voice with a cocky grin. Ginny, used to his antics by now, simply rolled her eyes.

"So Katie, are you going to stay with Daddy today while Mommy gets ready for the festivities tonight?"

Katie gurgled enthusiastically to her mother; little legs bouncing up and down while in her father's arms.

Ginny smiled at her daughter's antics and turned her cheek to Draco.

He leaned over and gave her a chaste kiss on the cheek and told her to have a good day. Draco turned, with Katie in his arms, and went back into the study. He took Katie's hand and waved it in a 'bye-bye' fashion to Ginny.

Ginny smiled and waved back.

Minutes later, Ginny was immersed in plans for the festivities that night. She was supervising food, decorations and games.
