AN- sorry it has taken me so long to update, but I have had things going on, plus a minor writer's block. I have to say one thing though. I had recently gotten reviews about Piper and Leo having so many kids. I know that 7 kids is a lot, especially for them with all the problems that they are having, but if anyone had wanted to know why I had made them have so many kids, then all they had to do was ask. I had recently received a review from someone, that I had found a little offensive. I'm not trying to be rude or mean, but if I want to make them have so many kids, who has the right to tell me basically not to do that? I was asked if I had ever heard of tying the tubes or a vasectomy. Of course I have, but isn't my choice if I want Piper or Leo to have that done or not, considering it is my story? If anyone doesn't like what I have to say then they can stop reading this story. I won't mind because I still have other people that review this story. If anyone was wondering, the reason that I had made Piper and Leo have so many kids was because I had based that part on someone I know and has about that many kids and no one seems to mind in real life, so why should people be shocked for this story. Anyway, please read and review the new chapter.

Ch.36

Piper sat in the living room of her house, watching Matt and Chris play with their trucks on the floor in front of her. Matt hadn't been feeling to well, so Piper had kept him home from preschool. She was sitting on the couch, with her feet up and her hand resting on her 7-½ month pregnant stomach. She was patiently waiting for Leo to come home, as they had a doctor's appointment in an hour. Leo was still in school. He had 2 years left, before he graduated and finally had his dream come true with being what he had always wanted to be. Finally, he would be a pediatrician. He had planned on opening up his own doctor's office once he was out of school and hiring only a couple of people to work with him. He had gotten a job and was now working once again as a waiter. He worked the early hours and usually got off around 1:00, which gave him enough time to get home, take a quick shower, before he left to get the kids from school. That was where he was now. Picking up the Taylor, Alex, and Emily from their elementary school, before all four of them headed over to pick up Charlotte from her preschool, all in the blue minivan that he had owned. It was the car that he had bought from some of the money he had gotten from his father. She was sitting there for about 20 minutes before he had walked in, with all four girls.

"Hi Mommy," Charlotte said, running over to her. She pulled herself up onto the couch and snuggled against Piper. Piper sat there and watched as the rest of them came in, each dropping their backpacks off by the closet door, before walking over and sitting down on the loveseat. She watched Alex and Emily sit down, as Taylor dropped her backpack and storm upstairs to her room. A couple of seconds later, they heard a door slam.

"What's wrong with Taylor?" Piper asked, as she put her arm around her current youngest daughter.

Leo set the keys down and started to put his jacket away as he said, "She's mad at me because I wouldn't let her go over to her friend's house after school. I explained to her that she couldn't because we are leaving tomorrow for San Francisco and she has to pack, but all she did was argue with me. You know, she kind of reminds me of someone around the age of 10." Piper smiled at him, knowing what he had meant and knew that he was referring to her.

"Funny, but you can't get to comfortable because we have to go," she said to him.

"Where?" he asked, a lost expression on his face.

"Doctor's appointment in about 35 minutes. So, we have to go," she replied. As soon as she had said that, there was a knock on the door. "That will be my dad," Piper said.

"Come in," Leo yelled, as he didn't feel like standing up. Victor walked in and over to them.

"Hi," Victor said.

"Hi Dad," Piper said, "I would get up to hug you, but Charlotte kind of fell asleep on me." Victor looked down and smiled at his granddaughter. "Leo, we have to go," Piper said, as she tried to stand up without waking up her daughter.

"Ok, just let me bring her up to her room," Leo said, standing up.

"I got it. You two just get to that doctor's office and make sure everything is ok with my grandchild," Victor said, as he picked up Charlotte so Piper could get up.

"Thanks," Leo said, before he quickly explained what had happened with Taylor and where she was, and they left. About half an hour later, they arrived at her doctor's office.

"Hi Piper, Leo. How are you today?" Dr. Willings asked, as she closed the door and smiled at them.

"Good, except for the backache and not being able to do anything for myself right now," Piper replied. Leo just smiled and held her hand as she said this. Dr. Willings also smiled at this.

"Ok, well, if you just lay back and lift your shirt, we can see that little one in there," she said to Piper. "Little one, ha. I have gained more weight with this one than I did with all the other ones, except for the twins," Piper replied, as she laid back, and lifted her shirt to show her bulging stomach. The doctor once again smiled, before putting the gel onto Piper's stomach and turned on the sonogram machine.

"Ok, here's your baby," Dr. Willings said, as she turned the screen. They looked at the screen, staring at their baby. "Would you like to know the sex of the baby?" she asked them, as they stared at the screen.

They looked at each other before Piper said, "I don't want to know, do you?"

He looked at her before shaking his head and saying, "I don't want to know." They both looked at their doctor and she caught on.

"Ok, well, everything seems just fine," Dr. Willings said, before printing out a picture and wiping the gel off Piper's stomach. She then turned off the machine and handed the picture to Piper, who immediately looked down at it.

"Ok, I'll see you guys in 4 weeks," Dr. Willings said to them.

"Oh, wait. We are going to San Francisco tomorrow, family problems. We don't know how long we are going to be gone," Leo said, as he helped Piper stand up.

"Well, ok, then I guess that we will make the next appointment for 5 weeks. Is that better?" she asked them, as she opened the door and they walked out. Piper looked at Leo and nodded her head.

"Yeah, that sounds good," Piper said. They then left to go home and pack for their trip in the morning, back to see their families.
