The coldness woke Sheldon up in the middle of the night. He moved closer to his wife's side of the bed to get some of her warmth and woke up when he realized it was empty. He looked towards the bathroom and noticed the light wasn't on. 'Where is she?' Thanks to his 'Vulcan' hearing he heard her softly singing from somewhere outside of the bedroom. He probably wasn't going to get any sleep until she came back to bed, so he tossed off the sheet and ventured out to find Amy.

His search was short lived, as he saw the light on in the hallway bathroom. He pushed open the door to find her sitting on the floor trying to comfort an obviously sick Stephen.

"What happened?"

She turned towards his voice, "I think he caught that bug that's been going around"

Sheldon sighed, "I knew we should have never taken them to that germ-infested park with Penny yesterday."

Amy rolled her eyes, "I just hope Marie doesn't have it. I can't handle two sick toddlers right now."

"You shouldn't even be handling one sick toddler" Sheldon said, "Why didn't you wake me. I would have taken care of him and let you rest."

Amy shrugged, "He woke me up and it didn't make sense that the both of us be up. And plus you know how he is when he's sick"

Sheldon couldn't fight her logic. As far as Stephen was concerned the sun rose and set on his mother. Nobody else could tuck him in, nobody else could comfort him regardless of the situation he would whimper and whine until Amy could get him, and nobody else could sing that song. It had gotten so bad that Amy had to record herself singing it for times that she wasn't there.

As if Stephen knew Sheldon was thinking of him, he blinked open his blue eyes, "Momma my tummy hurts" he whined. Amy brushed some hair off of his forehead. "I know baby" she said trying to get him as comfortable as possible on her lap, which was not an easy feat considering her 25 week belly was getting in the way.

"Amy go take him to our bed. It would be easier and more comfortable for the both of you"

"And where would you sleep?"

"One of the guest bedrooms" he said reaching down to pick up Stephen so Amy could stand. Sheldon just got him settled in his arms and reached his hand down to help Amy off the floor, when Stephen started to whimper. "Its alright" Sheldon said, but Stephen continued, "Want my momma" he whined as his lip trembled and his eyes filled with tears.

"Sheldon just give him to me" Amy said

"Amy you can't carry heavy things in your condition"

"For gods sake Sheldon, he's not even three yet, how heavy can he be? And if he cries and wakes up Marie, I don't have the energy to put her back to bed now and you would just end up playing with her."

Sheldon reluctantly handed over his son. All Amy did was rub his back and whisper in his ear and he quieted down. Sheldon shook his head, he never understood how she could do that with them. He brought a bowl to the bedside just incase Stephen got sick again. "Text me if you need anything and try to get some rest" he said kissing her forehead. He closed their bedroom door and turned around to see Marie standing in the hall clutching a teddy to her chest.

"What are you doing up?"

"Venny?"

"Stephen" Sheldon corrected, he never understood how she got venny, "is sick. He's sleeping with momma. You should go back to sleep too"

She shook her head, "We play"

"Its not play time yet. Its still dark out"

"Please" she said looking up at him with her big green eyes.

"Fine" Sheldon sighed, "One game and then we sleep" Everyone thought that Marie had Sheldon wrapped around her little finger, but only he knew that it wasn't just that, its because she had Amy's eyes.

Amy wondered into the hall the next morning and stopped at the twin's room to see Sheldon passed out on the floor with Marie cuddled on his chest surrounded by all her teddy bears.

Amy groaned in frustration again. "You doing okay?" Sheldon asked

"I'm bored out of my mind," she said. The doctor had put her on bed rest from her 28th week of pregnancy, she was only allowed to go as far as the bathroom and Sheldon made sure she followed that rule.

"I know. We're going out in the backyard. Text if you need anything" he said before kissing her lips.

"Bubbles daddy" Stephen giggled when they were outside. It amazed Sheldon how they could be entertained with something so trivial. His phone vibrated in his pocket and put down the bubbles to see if it was Amy. He scoffed when he realized it was just the university. He put away his phone and looked up but the twins were gone. He followed their giggles to the side of the house. "No not the hose!" he shouted but it was too late.

"Why are you guys all wet" Amy asked as Sheldon carried them into their bedroom.

"Your children decided to play with the hose"

Amy laughed, "Why are they only my kids when they do something you don't like?"

Sheldon shrugged, "Hopefully she would be different and listen to me" he said gesturing towards her stomach.

"Hopefully she could come soon so I could get out this room."

"4 more weeks Amy, just 4 more" he said leaning over to kiss her forehead. The twins took that as an invitation to climb on the bed despite being dripping wet, "No you guys are going to make mommy wet!" Sheldon shouted
