It was late in the morning and Sam was getting the baby ready to go for a walk and by walk it means drive to see his father. Now that the winter was over it was easier to get out of the house with the baby. Sam would pull out the stroller and they could get out of the house for a little bit. The only thing that took time was getting the baby ready to go. As soon as they got out of the house they were fine and ready to go.

Jake would lay in his car seat and look around at what was going on around him. Mostly he watched his mother and listened to her voice. She would talk all the way there.

As soon as they got close to Cheyenne Mountain, Sam pulled out her ID card and was allowed to park. She opened the back door and took out the baby carrier that also acted like a car seat. It was a gift from Jack and Janet. Smiling she then headed to the elevators, swiped her card and stepped inside. She pushed the correct button that would stop at the floor where Daniel's office was located. Once the doors opened she stepped out and smiled at the female guard who sat behind a desk. After signing the log book she continued down the hallway being stopped occasionally by passing officers and personnel that were eager to see the offspring of two SG-1 members.

"Sam, how have you been?" Asked one of the civilian scientists that were walking by. She was a elderly lady with a head of grey hair but the nicest personality that anyone could ask for. Sam had worked with her on several projects and found her company to be enjoyable. Dr. Greta Cinterra was her name but liked to be called Greta.

Sam smiled, "Very busy. How are you?"

"I'm doing good. In six months my 6th grandchild will be born." Greta said cheerfully.

"Congratulations!" Sam replied feeling happy for the older woman.

Greta looked down at the baby in the carrier. "This must be the famous JD."

"Famous?" Sam tilted her head and waited for an explanation.

"Yes," Greta smiled looking at the baby. "Dr. Jackson and Colonel O'Neill talks about him all the time. How is he doing with the colic?"

"He's getting better. They tell me it should be over by the time he's three months. That can't come soon enough." Sam said trying to hide her shock from hearing that her husband actually talked about Jake at work.

Greta smiled at her. "He's so cute. Can I hold him?"

"Sure." Sam sat the carrier on the floor and picked the baby up and handed him to Greta. "Is my husband in his office?"

"No. General Hammond paged a few of us to the briefing room about an hour ago. He should be back any minute now. Do you want me to see if he's finished?" Greta smiled at the baby in her arms.

"No. I'll wait." Sam smiled.

"Good," Greta smiled. "That'll give me a minute to get to know this baby."

Sam moved out of the middle of the hall and leaned against a section of wall. Greta was beside her talking to the baby and getting him to smile. They visited for a few minutes before Daniel showed up. His glasses were perched on the top of his head, a folder was tucked under his arm and a cup of coffee was clutched in his hand. When he noticed Sam he smiled, motioned that he'd be along in a minute and disappeared inside his office which wasn't very far from Sam. Once he appeared the three of them went out to lunch for the very first time.

"I'm glad you came," Daniel said.

"So am I." Sam said with a small smile.

Daniel looked at JD who was resting comfortably in his mother's arm while she ate. Daniel didn't want to lose his family and he knew he and Sam had to work on it. They had a lot to lose and everything to gain by being together. "I think we should go out Saturday afternoon."

"What?" Sam looked up from the blue jell-o that she was eating having finished her meal. It was her favorite thing to eat in the commissary.

"We can't go out at night until JD gets over this screaming stage, so why can't we go out in the afternoon?" Daniel asked.

Sam looked at him for a second. "I guess we could. I can try to find someone to watch the baby What are we going to do?"

"I don't know. I think the more we can be together the better off we'll be. I would really like my wife back," Daniel smiled.

Sam smiled at him and took a sip of water. She stood up and handed the baby to him. "I'll be right back." She left them and went to the bathroom. When she came back she stopped when she saw them. There was a beautiful young lieutenant bent over Daniel and the baby. She was smiling and laughing and Sam could tell that Daniel was embarrassed by the attention but was flirting back. She waited for a minute and then walked over.

The young lieutenant stiffened up and gave her a perfect salute. "Major."

"Lieutenant," Sam smiled politely.

"You must be his mother." Sam nodded. "He looks like you."

"Children tend to look like their parents." Sam replied, curtly.

"Yes. Well, I'll leave you alone so you can get back to your meal." The lieutenant smiled at Daniel. "It was nice to finally meet you, Doctor Jackson."

"You too, Lieutenant Andrews" Daniel smiled.

When the woman was out of earshot Sam glared at Daniel. "What the hell was that about?" She hissed drawing the attention of several others who knew better and looked away.

"What are you talking about? She was looking at the baby." Daniel said, confused.

"And flirting with you! I saw you two. And what's worse, is you were flirting back." Sam huffed.

"Sam, she was just looking at JD. It's not like we made out while you were in the bathroom." Daniel was trying to break the tension and avoid the fight that was brewing.

Sam rolled her eyes. "Well I didn't like it!"

"Good. You're not supposed to like it when good looking women come up to me." Daniel said with a grin.

Sam was going to get mad, but she stayed calm. "Well," She started with an evil smile. "As long as they come up to you to look at my son, then I'll be fine. He's a lot cuter than you, so who would be interested in you over him?"

"Ha, ha. You certainly got over that fast." Daniel replied, sarcastically.

"Who would be interested in a man sitting alone with a newborn in his arms? I figured I was pretty safe." Sam said. She knew of all the secret crushes that many of the female personnel of the SGC had on Daniel but he always seemed to be ignorant to it so why bring it up?

Daniel smiled at her. She was teasing him and that was a very good sign. She was starting to be herself again. He knew he would find her again and that she was somewhere inside. He was going to have to pull her out again, but he didn't mind. He would do anything to get his wife back. She hadn't smiled at him for weeks, but she did today. They only needed to get things out in the open and now that they did, they were happier.

Daniel looked at his watch then at Sam. "I have to get back to work. General Hammond just set a deadline that I've got to make. " Daniel stood up and passed the baby back to Sam then took their trays to the garbage and dumped them.

Sam laid him in his carrier but ended up picking him back up. He was getting ready to be fed and she needed to get home as much as Daniel needed to get back to work

"What's the matter?" Daniel asked when he came back.

"Nothing." Sam replied.

"Why are you holding him?" Daniel eyed his wife and son.

Sam snorted. "Because he wants to be held."

Daniel frowned. "What's wrong with him?"

"He wants to eat and he's tired. I have to get home that's all." Sam started, calmly.

"Oh." Was the only thing Daniel could think of as a reply. "Are you going to be able to carry both him and the carrier to the car?"

"If I have to." Sam smiled at him. "Why are you asking all these questions?"

"How are you going to carry the carrier and carry him?" Daniel asked.

Sam looked at him funny. "I'll manage. Is something wrong?"

"No." Daniel looked at his watch again. "Maybe I should walk to the car with you and then go back to work." He grabbed the carrier and headed out of the commissary and down the hall towards the elevators. "I thought you had to go back to work."

"I do, but I suppose it could wait a few minutes. General Hammond will never know." Daniel said with a smile.

Sam smiled at him. "If you want to." She thought he was being very strange, but maybe it was his way of showing he cared. Carrying the baby carrier and having the baby in her arms at the same time wasn't that big of a deal to her. She could do it if she had to.

"I want to." Daniel said as he pushed the button, rode the elevator to the surface and watched as his wife and son drove off base. Frowning he headed back inside and ready to face the research that he had to do in order to make the deadline. He ignored the nagging headache that was pounding in the back of his skull and even ignored the voice that he heard talking to him when he knew that he was alone in his office. He just figured that it was the lack of sleep and stress that he was under at the moment. Soon he'd find out how wrong he really was.
