Monica put the plates out onto the table. She had taken them down from the closet in the living room. This place was great. There was all kinds of space to orgainize things. She secretly knew that the Queen of England would never come, but she never let on. Chandler had replaced the dishes he broke and that was one of the things she loved about him. From the top of the stairs , came the sound of two little sets of cries.

"There's our little ones." Monica said as she ran towards the nursery. "Come on Daddy." She said to Chandler as he joined her racing up the stairs. Monica picked up Jack and Chandler picked up Erica They held them in their arms as they tried to comfort them. Monica swung Jack back and forth then up and down. "Bouncy baby Jack. , Bouncy baby Bing, " she sang. "Bouncy baby boy." She said as she smiled. In just a moment , Jack stopped crying and began to suck on his toe.

"What is your secret?" Chandler asked as Erica continued to cry. Monica put down her quiet little baby. "I guess it is a gift. You might try rapping to her. I hear that works." She snickered. At that moment, they heard the doorbell and she ran to welcome their guests.

Chandler looked down at Erica as she continued to cry. He turned around , hoping no one would see. Then he softly sang. "I like big butts, and I cannot lie. You other brothers can't deny." Erica startled to giggle.

"That always worked for me." Chandler heard a male voice and then turned around. "Oh I was trying to quiet down Erica." Chandler apologized. "No need to explain. I need your help." Ross said. "With what?" Chandler asked. "I am going to propose to Rachel." Ross said. "I think it is time."

"Why do you need my help? You know how to propose. After all , you have done it three times." Snickered Chandler as he covered back up little Erica. She was happily sucking on her thumb and cuddling a stuffed pink bunny.

"Uh huh huh huh." Laughed Ross through his teeth in that way of his. "I can't tell you now, because I promised Rachel , but I need to do this. " Chandler turned to his brother in law and friend and said sincerely. "You know I would do anything for you and Rachel."

Meanwhile downstairs Rachel , excitedly told her news. "And the doctor says that I must have gotten pregnant about the time I got off the plane in May. So that must have meant that the baby was either conceived the night of the party or the night I returned. Either way, Ross was so happy when he heard that he was going to be a father again." Phoebe ran into the house screaming. "I am going to be a Mommy again too." Monica started to jump up and down, then Rachel started to as well. Monica held her down. "I don't think that is a good idea for you." Mike accompanied her as he put his arm around her. "Yep , Phoebe and I are having a baby." He smiled and kissed her. Then Ross came down the stairs and put his arm around Rachel. "Rach and I are having a baby." He said as he looked at Mike.

"You guys don't make this into a competition. " Chandler said. Rachel looked at Phoebe. "We conceived the night I got off the plane. " Phoebe looked at her. "So did we." "This is my second baby." Rachel said looking at her. "This is my second, no wait , this is my fourth." Phoebe said defensively. "Those babies don't count." Rachel said staring down at her.

"Honey ." said Mike as he held back Phoebe.

"Sweetie." Said Ross as held back Ross.

"Back off Mike." Phoebe exclaimed as she pushed him away.

"Shut up Ross." Rachel said as she threw Ross off of her back.

Joey came in as the two women squared off against each other.

"You stole my thunder." Screamed Phoebe.

"No you stole my thunder." Screamed Rachel.

"Alright chick fight. " screamed Joey with glee. "Monica you sure know how to entertain guests. Now can I get some jello while you two roll around on the ground and kick each other , and tear each other's clothes , then maybe you might end up making out."

"Joey that's my wife." Said Mike loudly.

"You've got to understand how he thinks." Said Chandler as he welcomed his friend. Joey smiled and hugged his friend. This was really going to hurt. It was obvious that this was to be a night of celebrations for the friends. Phoebe and Rachel were both going to have a baby. Tonight he had to tell his friends , his family that he would be leaving for California.

"Everyone , time to eat." Monica announced as everyone made their way to the living room. Ross put Emma in her high chair as she banged on it and kept saying the same word over. "Break." Rachel sighed. "Do not deny it, Ross , apparently you have been teaching our daughter a new word and it's not funny." Ross was embarrassed. "Honey I can explain." Rachel kissed him . "It's not necessary. That is all water under the bridge. We have a fresh start." Everyone watched as Emma ate her first bites of lamb. Monica was trying a new recipe for the monthly dinner.

"Mon, this is delicious. Why don't you cook like this all the time?" Chandler said as he chewed his meat.

"Because I don't have the time, and this is a special occasion." Monica said happily. "I would like to propose a toast. To Phoebe and Mike as they start their new family and to Ross and Rachel as theirs grows , Congratulations." She lifted her glass and then took a sip of wine.

"None for you. " said Mike as he pulled it away .

"I'll get you some ginger ale , sweetie." Ross said as he headed for the kitchen.

"Guys , I have an announcement. " Joey interrupted. My new agent has gotten me a job. It is on a show called Nurses." Everyone yelled and cheered. "But there is only one thing. The job is in California. I am moving to Hollywood."

There was silence.
