Week 22
Andy felt like she was going crazy. She worked all day long and then came home to her family where she worked all night long. It was a never-ending cycle.
"Mommy!!" Isabella screamed running down the stairs.
"Be quiet!" Andy snapped, "Gracie is asleep."
"Well, Can I go over Chandler's house?" She asked. Andy took in a long deep breath. She nodded.
"Yes." She said. "Just call me when you get there so I know you arrived safely okay?" Isabella nodded.
"Thank you, Mommy." She said running to get her jacket.
"Behave for Aunty Stef." Andy said.
"I always do." She ran outside. Andy stood at the window watching her little red head run down the sidewalk towards Stefanie's house. She smirked slightly when she saw Elizabeth waddled up the stairs. She didn't miss that part of being pregnant.
"You home, Andy?" Elizabeth called out. Andy chuckled softly.
"Yes, Waddler." She said.
"Hardy har har." Elizabeth said walking into he house, "Do you have any caffeine?" Andy clicked her tongue.
"You shouldn't have caffeine." She said.
"Please. It won't hurt the baby." Elizabeth sat at the kitchen table.
"It's not that it hurts the baby, it's that it makes the baby utterly spastic." Andy said pulling out a can of Pepsi, "Trust me, the baby will be bouncing off your uterine walls."
"No it won't be." Elizabeth smiled taking the can, "Thanks."
"Oh trust me." Andy said, "When I was pregnant with Isabella, I drank one can of soda a day, and she still was very active."
"Well, I need this." Elizabeth popped open the can and took a sip. She groaned. "Now that's good." Andy chuckled.
"Can I ask you a question?" Andy asked. Elizabeth nodded.
"Sure. Shoot." She said.
"Do you ever feel that you're just running around in circles? you work, you work at home, no one thanks you, you sleep, and you get up and do it again all over again. Don't you just want to scream?" She asked. Elizabeth shrugged.
"I don't know. I love being a mom." She said, "being a stay at home mother suits me. maybe it'd suit you better."
"Oh I don't know..." Andy said, "I love teaching music."
"Maybe you just have the schedule your time better." She said. Andy laughed bitterly.
"We'll see." She said, "and here Brandon and I were discussing another child." Elizabeth laughed loudly.
"You don't need another child to throw into the mix. You don't have enough time for one." She said, "Just enjoy the ones you have and your nephews." Andy smiled brightly.
"And I love them dearly." She reached out and touched Elizabeth's stomach. Getting stressed was just a part of the job. She knew it. When all of the children moved out, she knew she'd miss the hustle and bustle of her current life.

Week 24
Morgan was a year old. It was hard to imagine her baby was already a year old. Stefanie loved watching Morgan change though. She loved her learning new words and taking new steps.
"Mother, the bus is coming soon for us." Chandler walked into the kitchen. "Can you finish my braid please?"
"Sure thing, Sweetheart." Stefanie pulled the blond braid to her with a chuckle, "Hudson! Elijah! The bus is coming."
"We're ready." Hudson said putting his backpack on.
"I wanna go." Breckin whimpered. Stefanie chuckled.
"Next year you can go to preschool, Buddy." She finished the braid and smacked Chandler's butt. "Go. Kisses please." Chandler kissed her mother's cheek and then Hudson and Elijah. She watched her three older children board the bus.
"You no love me." Breckin pouted. Stefanie turned and looked at him.
"I love y ou." She said.
"No way, Jose." Breckin said. Stefanie chuckled kneeling down to be at his eye level.
"I love you with all my heart. I love you laughs and your eyes. I love your jokes and the dirt you make." Stefanie said. Breckin frowned slightly.
"I go playing." he turned and left the room. Stefanie sighed looking up at Morgan.
"You believe me don't you?" She asked. Morgan began to squeal. "Good."
Clark walked into the house with a yawn. he needed some lunch to get him some more energy.
"Anyone home?" He called out.
"Shhhh." Stefanie hissed walking into the kitchen wearing only a towel, "Breckin and Morgan are finally asleep." Clark stared at her. So hot, he thought. She frowned, "What?"
"You're looking very hot." he groaned.
"You want a sandwich?" Stefanie asked. He shook his head.
"I want you." Clark nibbled on her neck. Stefanie laughed pushing him away.
"We have five children. We don't need to have anymore sex." She said.
"Bull shit." Clark grabbed the towel away from her body.
"Clark!" She shrieked standing there naked, "You're a frigging Perv."
"I came home for a nooner." Clark said. Stefanie's face softened.
"Well, you'll need to come get me." She said bolting down the hallway.
"Shit." Clark laughed running after her. She ran into the living room, but Clark cornered her. "Where do you think you're going young lady?"
"Young lady? I'm older than you." She said. Clark grabbed her by her waist and pulled her tight against his body.
"You're a cradle robber then." He said caressing the small of her back. She groaned.
"You're seducing me." Stefanie said.
"Is it working yet?" He asked her. Stefanie nodded.
"Big time. Let's have fun on the couch." She pulled him back. He smiled as he began to kiss her deeply. They still had it. After all these kids and long hours at work, Clark was still turned on by this beauty.
