Chapter Ten

Changes All Around

"Mommy! Mommy!" Caleb yelled as he jumped on his parents' bed.

"Caleb, who let you out of your crib?" Lucy asked.

"Nobody," Caleb explained. "I climbed out."

"Really," Lucy said. "Kevin, guess what," Lucy said as she tapped her husband on the shoulder, in order to wake him up.

"What?" Kevin said groggily.

"Caleb climbed out of his crib," Lucy explained.

"Really?" Kevin said enthusiastically.

"Yeah I did," Caleb said proudly.

"Well that means that you have to get a big boy bed," Lucy said. "We'll have to go and get you one today."

"Yay!" Caleb yelled as he threw his hands up in the air.

"You're…You're in the newspaper!" Annie exclaimed, through her heavy breathing. She, Eric, Sam, and David had ran from the car into the hospital. Kate had gone home from the hospital about a week and a half ago and she, Simon, and Alex were at the hospital almost everyday to see the new editions to their family.

"We know," Simon said.

"They came to the hospital yesterday and interviewed us," Kate said. "And we saw the article this morning when we got the paper. We wanted it to be a surprise for when everybody got the newspaper this morning."

"Oh," Eric said. "Here there is a picture of you in here," Eric said to Alex.

"Cool. I'm famous," Alex said.

"Yup you are," Annie said. "They said in the article that yours are the first set of quintuplets born in California."

"I know. I didn't even know that until I read the article," Simon said.

"Mommy can I hold Hannah?" Alex asked.

"Sure," Kate said. Kate carefully took her oldest daughter out of the bassinet that belonged to the NICU. "Sit down on that rocking chair." Alex sat down and Kate showed him how to hold his arms and then she placed Hannah in her son's arms.

"Do you guys want to hold a baby?" Simon asked.

"Of course," Annie and Eric said and Simon gave Andrew, whom he was holding to Eric. Then he took Emma out of a bassinet and then handed her to Annie.

"Sam and David do one of you want to hold Kenny or Emma?" Kate asked.

"Okay," Sam and David both said.

"Who wants to hold Kenny?" Kate asked.

"He can," Sam said and he pointed to David.

"Alright. You can sit over there," Kate said and David sat in one of the other rocking chairs. Then Kate handed Kenneth, also known as Kenny, to David. Sam sat in one of the other rocking chairs and she handed him Emma.

"Kenny is so cute," David said.

"Alright Grace, time to go to your dance class," Sarah said and her five year old daughter came running wearing a black leotard, pink tights, a pink tutu, and ballet shoes. Her curly black hair, which was just like her mother's was pulled up into pig tails and she looked absolutely adorable. Sarah helped her daughter to get her jacket on and then Sarah said, "Matt we're leaving. Have fun with the boys!"

"Bye!" Matt and Zack both yelled. Then Sarah and Grace walked out the front door and into the green minivan that was parked in the drive way. It took about five minutes to get to the dance studio and when they did both Sarah and Grace went inside and Grace's class started. Sarah watched the class as the teacher led them in stretches and in practicing their routine for the dance recital. At the end of the class the dance teacher let the whole class have "free dance" and Sarah couldn't help but laugh as she watched her daughter run around the room and shake her butt.

When the class was over Grace and Sarah got into the car and drove home.

Matt sat at the kitchen table with Nolan on his lap and Zack sitting across from him, playing "Chutes and Ladders."

"Yes I won!" Zack yelled and then he jumped up from the table and did a victory dance; which Matt couldn't help but laugh at.

Matt carried Nolan over to the stove where tomato sauce was cooking. Matt stirred it and then said, "Zack, why don't you set the table? We can have dinner ready and the table set when Mommy and Grace get home. It can be a surprise."

"Okay!" Zack said cheerfully. He pulled the stepstool over to the cabinet and got out four plates and a bowl (for Nolan) out.

Matt gave Nolan a toy and then put him in the playpen that he had just moved to the corner of the kitchen.

"I'm done daddy!" Zack said once the table was set.

"Okay, you can help me and stir this," Matt said and he picked up his son and sat him on the counter. Matt gave his son a bowl that had pasta in it and Zack stirred it so that the butter melt.

"We're home," Sarah said as she and Grace entered the house.

They both entered the kitchen as Matt was putting the last of the food on the table. "Mommy we made dinner," said Zack. "Come sit down." Zack took his mother's hand and pulled her to the table and sat her down. He and Grace joined their mother at the table. Matt got Nolan out of the playpen and put him in his highchair. Once everyone was settled the family said a prayer and began to eat.

"Well congratulations, one of your children are ready to go home. Today you can take home Andrew. It will only be a couple of days or so until you can take home Hannah, Kenny, and Emma. As for Faith she will have to stay a couple of weeks longer. She has to gain a couple of more pounds and then she'll be able to go home," Dr. Stephens announced to Kate and Simon.

"Okay," Kate said.

Then Dr. Stephens said, "Andrew is getting one last check up and then all you have to do is sign him out and you can take him home."

"Okay," Simon said.

"You can go into the nursery. He should be ready to go in about five minutes," said Dr. Stephens and then she walked away.

"Let's go," Kate said and she and Simon walked down to the hospital nursery to get their child and take him home. When they got there they found a nurse giving Andrew a check up. When he was done Simon and Kate dressed him in onesie with a matching hat and booties. His hat and booties all had bears on it and was blue. Hannah, Faith, Emma, and Kenny all had the same outfit only Hannah's was pink, Faith's was purple, Emma's was yellow, and Kenny's was green. Once Andrew was dressed the parents put them him in his car seat carrier and checked him out of the hospital. They put Andrew in the car and drove home.

When they got home, Kate and Simon brought the Andrew into the nursery and put him in one of the cribs. Then they left the room after Kate turned off the light. "I'm going to call my parents and ask them to drop off Alex," Simon said and went down the hall to the kitchen.

"They're going to get him ready and bring him home right away," Simon said to Kate once he got off the phone. They had already bought another set of everything for Faith and their families and friends had even bought them some things. Now they were all set for when all five babies were home, except for the fact that all the babies' things took up so much room in the house. There was barely any room to walk around, but they would manage and hopefully they would buy a bigger house really soon.

"Okay," Kate said. "It's not so hard when he's asleep."

"Yes that's true but he isn't going to be asleep the first two years of his life," Simon said and he pulled his wife close to him. He kissed her and a couple of seconds later the door bell rang. They both went to the door and found that Eric, Annie, and Alex were standing on the other side.

"The babies are home?" Alex exclaimed.

"Andrew is," Simon said. "He's sleeping though so you have to be quiet."

"Okay," Alex whispered and he went into the living room.

"We don't want to stay long," Eric said. "We know what its like to have a new baby in the house." Annie and Eric talked with Simon and Kate for a little while and then left.

As soon as the door was shut a baby's cry could be heard through out the house. "And it begins," Simon said and he and Kate went into the nursery. Kate took Andrew out of his crib and walked over to Simon.

"Can you go heat up a bottle?" Kate asked. Simon left the room and Kate took the newborn into the living room and once Simon brought in the bottle she fed the baby. When the bottle was empty Simon got Andrew to fall asleep and then he laid him in one of four cradles that were in the living room.

"Daddy's home! Daddy's home!" Caleb exclaimed as he jumped around the foyer. Kevin went out to pick-up Caleb's new bed. Caleb had been sitting, waiting for his father to come home ever since Kevin had left. Lucy ran to the door and opened it for her husband and Kevin came in, carrying a large box. He carried it upstairs and into Caleb and Tommy's room.

"I'll help put it together," Lucy said.

"Alright but don't do any lifting," Kevin ordered, not wanting his wife to go into labor, early.

"I know," Lucy said and she sat down on the floor. She took a piece of the bed off the floor and looked at the directions in order to see where it went. Kevin sat down next to her and Caleb sat on Tommy's bed and watched his parents put together his "big boy bed." They worked until about a quarter to three when Lucy looked at the clock and realized that she had to pick up the kids from school.

"I'll go and get them," Kevin offered. He looked over at Caleb and noticed that he had fallen asleep. Kevin covered him with the blanket and then left the room to go and pick up four of his children. After Kevin left Lucy continued to work on putting the bed together. When he returned about thirty minutes later the entire bed was together. When Kevin got home he put the mattress on the bed and Lucy put sheets on it. Once Caleb woke up, Lucy put new comforters on both Tommy and Caleb's beds, so that both beds would be matching. Each of the comforters had a sport theme, which matched the room.

"Alright, Tommy and Caleb you guys can come up and see your room now," Lucy yelled down the stairs. Both boys ran up the stairs and when they got up to their room they started jumping around the room. "Thank you mommy!" Tommy yelled.

"Thank you mommy!" Caleb said and both boys ran to hug their mother.

"You're welcome," Lucy said and she hugged her sons. A little while later the family of seven ate dinner.

"I can't wait to go to sleep tonight," Caleb exclaimed.

"Good you can go to bed right after dinner," Kevin joked.

"No way," Caleb said. "I'm not tired yet."

After dinner was eaten and cleaned up Lucy started to give the kids baths. "Noah, Luke, and Tommy you're taking a bath first," Lucy said. The kids groaned and Lucy said, "Come on!" She followed the three of them upstairs and they went into the bathroom that connected Tommy and Caleb's room and Luke and Noah's room. Lucy started to run the water in the tub as Noah, Luke, and Tommy started to undress themselves.

Once the tub was full the three boys got in. Lucy poured shampoo in each of their hair and then rubbed it in. Then Lucy poured water over each of their heads to wash out the shampoo. Each of the boys washed their bodies and then Lucy let them play in the tub for five minutes.

"Alright time to get out," Lucy said. Each of the boys got out of the tub and Lucy gave them all towels. Once they were all in their pajamas Lucy called up Caleb and Lizzy. She gave them a bath and then helped them into their pajamas.

Kevin came upstairs and read all five kids a story. Then Lucy came up to help tuck them in.

"Goodnight Caleb," Lucy said and she kissed her son's forehead. "Sleep well."

"Night," Kevin said and he too kissed his son's head. He shut the light off, closed the door and met his wife in the hallway.

"I can't believe we have no children in cribs. That's never happened before," Lucy said.

"I know but that crib will be put to use really soon," Kevin said. "Once the new baby comes." Kevin placed his hand on his wife's growing stomach and kissed her. "I love you."

"I love you too," Lucy said.
