"I don't know how you do it." Logan said with a smile as he climbed into bed next to Rory several hours later.

"Do what?" Rory asked sleepily from her position propped against several pillows.

"Look as good in a ratty old pair of Yale sweats as you do in a little black dress."

Rory smirked. "Well thank you. Although a little black dress is what got us in the current predictament." She teased as they situated themselves in a comfortable position.

"True. But that was a good dress, and a great night." Logan said with a grin before they both drifted off to sleep.

The next morning Logan was gone before Rory woke up, but there was a note propped up against the lamp of her side of the bed.

"Morning Ace. I hope you slept well. You were sleeping too soundly for me to wake you up. Today will be a early day. I should be home at about four. Have fun with your mom, and Ill cook dinner if you decide what you want and let me know.

-L"

Rory smiled when she read the note, she would text him after she figured out what she wanted. Glancing at the clock on the home screen of her phone she saw that it was just after nine. There was no point in bothering Logan right now. She sent her mom a text message asking what time she and Luke would be there before she went to find her laptop and check her email.

Scrolling through her inbox she saw several spam emails and then a few from Paris. One of them was an attempt to schedule the appointment to find out the gender of her and Logan's baby. She sent a response to Paris saying she would call in a couple of days and they could schedule something. Rory knew even as she sent the email that she was just trying to put it off until her and Logan had made a concrete decision on finding out if the baby was a boy or girl.

After closing her laptop and seeing the message from her mom that said they would be there at noon. The brunette spent a couple mintues moving the baby stuff off the table and into the spare bedroom that would be turned into the baby's room if they stayed living at the current apartment. She sighed, that was another headache that she didn't look forward to dealing with. She stayed in the room for a few more moments before sighing once more and heading back to the master bedroom where she busied herself making the bed for the next several minutes.

Soon Rory found herself in the shower. After a quick scrub, and hair washing she found a pair of leggings and an oversized shirt. Her and Lorelai hadn't discussed where they were going to go for lunch, but with Luke along for the adventure she knew it wouldn't be anywhere too fancy.

After pulling her clothes on, and completing the look with a pair of black converse that took far too long to put on she went to the living room to watch a movie until her mother and step father showed up.

What seemed like only a few minutes later Rory was startled awake to a knock on the door. She wiped the drool off her face and made her way to the door as quickly as her ever expanding stomach would allow her.

Pulling the door open she smiled at her mother and step father. "Did we wake you kiddo?" Luke asked with a smirk curled at the edge of his mouth.

"Yeah, I fell asleep watching a move a little bit ago."

"Well, growing a human is exhausting." Lorelai said as Rory moved aside so her parents could join her in the entry way instead of standing awkwardly in the hallway.

"Where are we going for lunch?" Rory asked after a few minutes of small talk.

Lorelai shrugged. "This is your hood, you have to choose somewhere. And then we figured we'd go to the baby boutique and get a crib for that little nugget." She added as she patted her daughters stomach.

Rory laughed. "What did you have to promise Luke to get him to agree to boutique shopping?" She asked her mother with a slight nod and raise of her eyebrow towards her step father.

Luke laughed, and rubbed his neck. "I'll go to lunch with you, but then I have a meeting at the bank. So you girls will be alone with my credit card to buy baby stuff."

The two Gilmore women laughed as the trio headed out the door. Once they had reached Lorelai's every faithful Jeep, Rory paused. "Since we are going two seperate places after lunch. I'll follow you in my car, and then we can leave straight from lunch, instead of having to come back here."

Luke nodded and as he fished the keys out of his pocket looked to his step daughter. "Wait, where are we going?"

Rory laughed. "There's a chinese place about ten blocks away if you take a left on the next street. Its called Ho Hung Palace."

After another couple of comments, Lorelai and Luke got in the jeep, and Rory got in her own car.

After the short drive, the trio reunited in the nearly abandoned parking lot of the chinese place. Lorelai frowned and looked at Rory. "Are you sure this place is good? It's never a good sign when a eating establishment has no cars in the parking lot."

Rory laughed and reassured her mother. "Don't worry, it's good. This place has been around since I was in college. Logan and I used to come here all the time. They have chinese food, Italian food and hamburgers. It's kind of like Al's but different."

Luke was reassured by the fact that they offered more than just Chinese food. Even though he had become accostomed to his wife's odd eating habits. He still prefered more simple food most of the time, especially if he wasn't the one cooking. Together the three of them made their way into the gaudily decorated resturaunt.
