(A/N - Due to a complaint recieved by one of my reviewers, I'm going to start posting new chapters of my story on Saturdays as compared to Tuesdays! Normally, I would type all day on Tuesday when I'm off from work, but because this conflicts with SOMEONE'S schedule, I decided to push back updates to Saturday. BUT, don't expect a new chapter NEXT week! I've already posted two this week! Now, with that being said, I welcome you to Chapter 8 of "Nine Months in the Socks of the Motamiya's!" Enjoy and review, my friends!)

Nine Months in the Socks of the Motamiya's: Chapter 8

"Yeah, yeah, now come on, man. Now that you're our doctor, check Sora out and let's see what's going on inside!" Tai said, impatiently, twitching in his chair.

"You'll have to forgive him, Joe," Sora sighed, shooting a glare at her husband. "Tai's a little anxious to see how the baby is doing. He doesn't believe me when I say everything is perfectly fine."

"Mother knows best, Tai," Joe said, grinning. "Stop worrying."

Sora laughed. "asking Tai to stop worrying is like asking Izzy to stay away from computers: it ain't gonna happen."

Tai pouted as the two laughed. "So sue me, I'm worried, I never been a father before."

Joe took off his glasses and started rubbing the lenses using the bottom of his scrub top. "Lots' of new dads-to-be are scared about what's happening. It's natural and it's normal, but please do us all a favor and relax, huh?"

"I'll try, man."

"Thank you," Joe said, standing from his desk. "Okay, Sora. We're going to be doing a pelvic exam and then we'll get an ultrasound machine fired up and see what's baking in the oven." He opened the door.

"Can I watch?" Tai asked, standing up from his chair.

"After I finish the exam, I'll be sure to let you in for the ultrasound," Joe said, jamming his hands in his lab coat pockets. "This is a personal exam I'm doing."

"Oh, come on!" We're married and she's carrying my kid!" Tai exclaimed, following Sora out the door. "It's not like I haven't seen—"

"TAICHI KAMAYA, DON'T YOU DARE!" Sora bellowed.

"OH MY GOD, WHAT IS THAT!"

"Tai, that's just the umbilical cord."

Sora giggled as Tai slumped back down on the metal stool by the bed. "Is that healthy? Is it the right size and everything?"

"It's perfect, Tai. Everything is perfect." Joe sighed. "Just like the last time when you asked me to recount the baby's fingers and toes to see if any were missing."

"Hey! They do it in the delivery rooms on TV all the time!" Tai said defensively.

Joe rolled his eyes as he moved the device over Sora's stomach. "They usually wait UNTIL the delivery room to count." He sighed and cleared his throat. "Now, your baby is about the size of a squirrel. You should be able to feel him move, Sora, though it may be a week or two before anyone outside will be able to."

"A squirrel." Sora echoed, looking up at Tai. "So much for a tadpole. Our little one is a full grown froggie."

"Yeah," Tai said, staring intently at the screen. "But to me, it'll always be our little tadpole—OH MY GOD, WHAT IS THAT!" he screamed, pointing at the black and white screen with a trembling finger.

Joe zoomed in on the area where Tai was pointing and moved the device. "I think that is a.." he then trailed off and squinted at the screen, studying it closely.

After about five seconds, he grinned. "Well, congratulations, Tai," He said, restoring the picture to the normal full screen version. "You've just identified the sex of your baby."

"What!" Tai exclaimed, staring at the screen again. "You mean…that little thing…is a…"

"Yep. You guys are having a boy."

"A boy!" Sora squealed, "We're having a boy!"

"We wanted a boy so much!" Tai said, kissing Sora on the cheek. "Though we would've been equally happy with a girl too."

"Maybe next time we'll get lucky and get a girl to match." Sora said with a grin.

"Yeah, maybe—NEXT TIME!" Tai exclaimed. "Next time! We haven't even finished with this time yet, Sora-chan!"

"I recommend you guys wait until this one finishes baking before you try to make another cake." Joe said, sighing as he tapped another button on the computer. "Because if you act like this with your second kid, have mercy on us all."

Tai laughed, his attention now focused back on the screen. "My son…our son…" He sighed.

"Looks like the second generation of Digi-destined is coming together slowly but steadily," Sora sighed dreamily as Joe removed the paddle from Sora's stomach and handed her a towel.

"Yes, and you're carrying the leader right in there, my Sora-chan." Tai said, proudly.

"Now don't forget you still got your sister and Yolei's kid to contend with," Joe reminded him as he wiped off his device. "According to my calculations, you guys are only a few days to one week apart."

Tai arched his eyebrows and leaned in close to Sora's stomach. "You know, if you wanted to come out a little early, you're more than welcome to—"

"TAI!" Sora and Joe exclaimed.

Tai grinned sheepishly. "I was just kidding!" he turned back to her stomach. "You stay in there and don't come out until you're fully formed you hear me?"

Joe sighed and snapped a small DVD in a blue case. "Here's you baby's first movie," he said, handing Sora the case. He then dug in his pocket and pulled out a card with three phone numbers scribbled on it. "And here is my card with all my numbers on it," he continued, handing it to Sora. "If you need anything, don't hesitate to call."

"We sure will, Joe. Thanks so much." Sora said, giving Joe a hug. "There's no other doctor I would trust more."

"Yeah, Joe," Tai added, shaking his hand. "You da man! Now, about the bill…"

Joe held up his hand as he walked the couple out the door. "Don't worry, Tai," he said, patting Tai on the back. "I got it covered,"

"Cool!"

Joe pulled an envelope out of his pocket and handed it to Tai. "It's covered in this very nice envelope."

"Awww, man…" Tai groaned, his shoulders sagging. "Later, man."

"Bye, Tai! Bye Sora! See you at your next visit!" Joe said, waving.

Once they reached the elevator, Joe called back to them. "Oh, and Tai?"

Tai turned back to face the young doctor. "Yeah?"

He jogged over to them and plucked the bill out of his hand. "Remember my name; Dr. Reliable Joe Kido." He said, shredding the envelope and slapping the pieces back in Tai's open hand. "You two have a nice day." He winked and walked back down the hall.

"Sora…" Tai gasped as the elevator doors opened. "Do you know what that man just did for us?"

"Yep. He just help pay for our baby stuff," Sora said, grabbing Tai by the arm and drug him in the elevator car. "Come on, Taichi-chan."

"Aww, man!" He groaned as the doors closed behind him.

To Be Continued...

(A/N - Okay, you guys know what time it is! It's time to answer some reviews! Here we go:

Dark Qiviut - It's okay! I'm just glad you read it! You're right about one thing: with the doctors on the scene, this story is going on a whole new level! Thanks for the name corrections! By the time you read this, I made the corrections and saved them in! Thanks so much!

SomeoneInThePastOfEarth - Uh-Uh! Not stopping today! There is no post on the main page of that states that we can't reply to reviews! I have a responsiblity to answer each and every review I get, and that's what I plan to do.

Anthony1 - Dr. Greystone is based off a good, good friend of mine's story because she included Dr. McKnight in mine! BTW, I'm sorry I didn't come back online that one time, I was having some system issues and didn't reload AIM! So sorry!)

Paige34 - You're the reason why I decided to move my updates to Saturday! In fact, that's helping me out a whole bunch in two ways: 1. I can sleep in later, and 2. I can sleep in on next Saturday because there won't be a new chapter for two weeks! Ha ha! Equivilant Exchange, my friend! But I digress, You know my policy on telling the gender of the kids in all my stories! I hope that this little "Accidential" reveal is enough to sooth the savage beast within! The "Going at it like rabbits" line came about from the frequent "TK and Kari have a baby" stories that are on I made the comment to someone that the hope and light couple "Go at it like rabbits" so that's just a small throwback to that comment. The reason I went with "Tea Cakes" is to kinda give a small jab (not a bash, just a small playful punch on the shoulder) to TK, for all the Takari stories that bash Davis. Look forward to more in the coming chapters! The squirrel comment is actually pretty accurate. In this stage of the pregnancy, the baby is the size of a small squirrel, and "squirrel" sounds much cuter than catfish!

Mia Kamiya - Thank you so much for the review! The "Tea Cakes" part as I mentioned above was ment to be a small jab on the shoulder for TK, but it also is a small refrence to season 2 when Davis frequently mispronounced TK's name!

And to Warprince2000, JyouraKoumi, Sakuno629, Colormyworld, and EVERYONE ELSE WHO READ MY STORY, thank you for sticking with me, and I will continue to write until the cows come home AGAIN! See ya in two weeks!)
