Ireland had a huge birthday party on the set of 'Sands of Time'. Over two hundred people came to celebrate with her. Dave and Randi managed to come too. The twins were doing a lot better. They were both over four pounds now. They were expected to come home in a little over a month.

"Come on." Dave pushed Ireland into the department store. She gave him a look.

"This is utterly ridiculous." Ireland groaned walking in.
"How do you think I feel?" He asked taking her hand, "But your mother says you need new shoes."

"Why not get me a bra while you're at it?" Ireland asked. The colour drained from Dave's face.

"Do you...Do you need one?" He asked. Ireland chuckled.

"Not yet, but it's nice to know where you're at." She walked ahead of him. Dave groaned. She was going to be hell on wheels when she became a teenager. "Mom should be able to make shoes. She can make everything else." Dave chuckled.

"Well, tell her that next time you see her." He said.

"Oh I will." Ireland said as she went into the show department. She immediately picked up a pair of six-inch boots. Dave groaned.

"Sneakers please." He said. Ireland shook her head as she kicked her shoes off.

"These boots are great." She said pulling them on. Dave sighed as she watched her. Christ, she looked exactly like Randi as she sat there. Every moment, every curve was Randi. That scared the hell out of Dave. She looked up at him and grinned, "What do you think, Daddy?"

"I think those are nice, but you need to find some sneakers too." Dave said.

"As long as I can get these too." Ireland said.

"You can get those, but find sneakers too." He repeated. Ireland smiled and went to looking at the sneakers. An older woman, around fifty years old, walked down that isle not taking her eyes off of Ireland. "Hurry up, Land."

"Geez, I am." She said. The woman walked up to them.

"Excuse me....Are you Ireland Malucci?" She asked. Ireland smiled and nodded.

"I am, Ma'am." She said. The woman began to giggle.

"Oh my! I am such a big fan of yours." She said, "I totally love what they're doing with Amanda. I can't believe Johnson is trying to come back into her life." Ireland chuckled.

"I'm having a blast with want they're doing. It's only going to get better." Ireland said. Dave watched them carefully.

"Can you tell me?" She asked. Ireland chuckled.
"Sorry. I signed an agreement to not to tell anything." She said. "Not even my parents know what's going on with Mandy."

"Oh." The woman looked sad for a moment but then she brightened up, "May I have your autograph if its not too much trouble?" Ireland chuckled as she stood up.

"Sure. It's no trouble at all." Ireland smiled. The woman immediately pulled out a piece of paper and a pen.

"Thank you so much." She said. Ireland smiled as she signed a small message and her name.

"Here you go. I hope you keep on watching." Ireland said.

"I will! Thank you!" The woman laughed and ran off. Ireland sat back down and took her boots off.

"I think these sneakers are nice." She said. Dave chuckled.

"That didn't phase you one bit did it?" Dave asked.

"What?" Ireland looked at him. Dave smiled and picked up the box of boots.

"Never mind." He said. It sure weirded him out to see people get all excited when Ireland walked into a room and to ask her for her autograph. He still couldn't believe his baby was famous.

Randi held Jett in her arms. He was getting so big. Four pounds of baby in her arms. All the girls were a lot bigger than him when they were born on Jett was three months old. Jett yawned and looked at her.

"Are you getting tired?" She asked. Dr Wolcott walked up to them.

"I think it's his feeding time before his nap." He said.
"Oh okay." Randi said softly. She didn't want to let go of him. Dr. Wolcott knelt down in front of them and smiled.

"Would you like to try to breastfeed him?" The doctor asked. Randi's eyes widened.

"What?" She whispered. Dr. Wolcott smiled with a chuckle.

"The twins are ready to breastfeed if you want to." He said. Randi nodded.

"Please. Yes. I want to breastfeed him." She said with a large grin.

"All right thanks." Dr. Wolcott stood up, "If you're up to it, you may feed Gage soon too. Just pace yourself." Randi smiled as she looked down at her son. She couldn't believe this was happening. She undid the buttons of her shirt. "He may not take to it right away. He is used to other ways."

"All right." Randi whispered, cradling Jett in her arm better. She pulled her breast out. Randi blushed slightly. She had done this enough times. Randi shouldn't be embarrassed. She had been pumping milk a lot lately, but every time she did that, she longed to breastfeed her boys and now she was. She took her nipple between two fingers and guided it to Jett's mouth. She was a pro at breastfeeding, but for some reason, this felt differently. Jett immediately latched on. Randi gasped.

"He's at it like a pro." Dr. Wolcott patted her shoulder. "I will be back later to check on you two and give Gage a chance all right?" Randi nodded.

"Thank you." She whispered. She stared at her son as he ate. God, this was the best feeling in the world. Tears started to well in her hazel eyes, "I've been waiting for this moment for a long time, Jett. I am so happy you and your brother are getting stronger." Dave walked into the nursery and stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Randi breastfeeding Jett.

"Oh my god." He whispered. Randi looked up and smiled.

"I'm feeding him, Dave." She said.

"I see." He walked over to them and dropped to his knees, "Oh my god." Dave touched his son's check, fixing the oxygen tube more securely behind his ear.

"They're almost ready to go home." Randi said. "It's a miracle."

"It certainly is." Dave whispered. He turned and looked at Gage.

"This feels so fantastic." Randi said. Dave smiled.

"You've been waiting a long time for it, Darling." He kissed Jett's head and grinned at his wife. This was such a beautiful sight. He wasn't sure if she'd ever get the chance to breastfeed the twins. They certainly were miracles. There was no denying that.
