"Shouldn't you be out there?" Elle asked hearing sirens in the distance.
"No. I've stopped being Supergirl until after your brother is born"
"Why?"
"So I have more time to spend with you."
"What about your other job?" Elle asked.
"I still have to do that." Kara conceded. "But seeing it is the weekend I'm all yours. No interruptions. And I have tickets for Disney on Ice."
"For all of us?" Elle asked hopefully.
"Yeah, but if you'd prefer Alex to go instead of me, that's fine." Adam said semi hopefully.
"No, I want you to go with us." Elle said.
"I was afraid you were going to say that." Adam said.
"You don't want to spend time with us?" Kara asked.
"I don't want to spend time with Disney's finest." Adam corrected. "But now you are on a health drive at least we'll get to go out for a healthy meal afterwards."
"I'm not." Elle pointed out. "And isn't today about me? Besides if mom is eating weird stuff it means more muffins for me."

"How was your day with Elle?" Alura asked when Kara entered the lounge later that evening.
"It was good." Kara smiled. "What have you been up to?" She asked before noticing the website that was open. "Why are you looking at places to live? I thought we covered this?"
"That was before you were pregnant." Alura pointed out.
"So?"
"Elle needs to spend more time with you and after the baby is born you'll need the space." Alura said before adding. "I am moving properties not planets. We will still see each other."
"I know, but where will you go?" Kara asked.
"I have found a place not far from here." Alura said pointing at the screen.
"You can't live there." Kara stated.
"Why not? It is spacious and cheap."
"For good reason. It is in an area of the city with the highest crime rate."
"Kara, I have nothing of value to steal and I have powers that mean I can not get hurt unlike whoever might try to attack me." Alura pointed out.
"There is an alternative." Adam said entering the room. "We still have Kara's old apartment. It's big, in a decent neighbourhood and not far from here. Why don't you move in there?"
"Is that not where you two go for peace and quiet?" Alura asked.
"With two kids I doubt we'll ever have time for peace and quiet again." Adam pointed out.

"How was your day with Elle?" Alex asked a couple of days later as she sat next to Kara with a bowl of popcorn.
"Good. She seemed more relaxed and there was not one complaint or negative comment about the baby."
"No more threats for what she wants to call Sprout?" Alex asked.
"Sprout?" Kara asked.
"It's what Maggie is calling the baby." Alex explained.
"Really? Don't you think I get enough of this from Elle?" Kara asked.
"Maggie nicknamed Elle, it wouldn't be fair not to nickname Sprout as well."
"I'm fine with inequality." Kara replied.
"The Elle naming thing you brought on yourself." Alex said.
"So Cat keeps reminding us. But in answer to your earlier question, no Elle hasn't mentioned names again."
"You've not asked?" Alex questioned.
"Nope. Part of me wants to, part of me is scared of the answer. Now I get Cat's, Lena's and Eliza's reactions."
"Adam has faith in her." Alex reminded her.
"Even he is starting to waver after the horror movie list."
"At least she was using that for blackmail rather than as serious suggestions."
"Seeing she's no where near being a teenager I don't think I should be happy with blackmail." Kara pointed out.
"I don't know, it shows thinking outside the box." Alex pointed out.
"And you wondered why Adam accused you of being behind the list?" Kara questioned.
"He's just paranoid." Alex shrugged before asking. "So how are you feeling?"
"Apart from raising a blackmailer, great."
"Missing being Supergirl?" Alex asked.
"Not as much as I thought. It's been good spending time with Elle and not worrying about the city. But I am missing working with you."
"It's only a few months...assuming J'onn gives up the skirt." Alex pointed out.
"That's plenty of time for you to get into trouble." Kara countered.
"That is the issue with J'onn donning the skirt, I am on more missions with him and he is using every mission as an evaluation opportunity. I'm starting to feel like a rookie again."
"So I've been too easy on you?"
"You do remember you report to me not the other way round?" Alex asked bemused.
"Not how I remember it." Kara grinned.
"I'll put that down to pregnancy related forgetfulness." Alex said before turning more serious and asking. "How are you doing now your mom has moved out?"
"Okay I guess. I just worry about her."
"Unlike you she can cook." Alex reminded her.
"I know, but she is still new to this planet."
"And she knows how to use a phone. She'll call you or J'onn if she needs help."
"I know, but I'm still going to worry."
"You need to stop worrying, about everything. It's bad for you and Sprout." Alex said.
"Please can you drop that name?" Kara asked.
"No, besides it may be your preferred choice after Elle has made her decision."
"See comments like that doesn't help my stress levels." Kara said.
"Well I know something that might." Alex said.
"What's that?"
"Tomorrow, while Elle is at school we are going shopping."
"Shouldn't you be working? Shouldn't I be working?" Kara asked.
"Lena has given you the day off."
"She has?"
"She has. And I'm owed plenty of leave. So tomorrow we go on a shopping spree for you and Spout."
