A/N- I haven't realized that it's been a while since I last posted! Yikes. That's what school does to a person. But here is the next installment to this story! I also know that I haven't updated And I'm Home either like I said in the last chapter. A slap on the wrist for me. But enjoy!

Two weeks after Callie and Sofia's movie date, the entire Torres-Robbins family was standing in the middle of the store. It was school supply shopping day for them, as Sofia was going to be heading back to school in a few days.

"Let's go pick out Ms. Sofia's backpack first," Arizona said with her over-perky attitude.

"Lead the way, Arizona," an unhappy Callie said.

Callie pushed a baby in a cart behind Arizona pushing a double stroller. Sofia was holding on to the cart. She was excited to get to go shopping.

"I want the princess one, mommy. It's got Princess Tiara and Rapunzel and Princess Aurora."

"If that's the one you want, grab it and put it in the cart. We still have a lot of supplies to get."

After Sofia grabbed the bag she wanted, they followed the sticker pencils on the ground that guided them to the rest of the school supplies. There were tons of people here doing their shopping trying to get some good last minute deals.

"What do we need to get?" Callie asked her wife.

"Let me get out the school supply list that the school sent out." Arizona had to dig in her purse, and then she pulled out a folded piece of paper. "We need some pencils, crayons, glue, paper, a couple notebooks and some safety scissors."

"Sounds like kindergarten all over again. Is there anything else on the list?"

"Just some markers. It doesn't say anything else is really needed. Come on Sofia, let's find some pencils."

They were in a small section of the store and both of the adults spotted almost everything they needed right away, but they wanted to let Sofia help out. They had her steer them to whatever part of the busy aisle they needed to get to. Sofia was very proud of herself, and her moms were aware of it.

"I want these pencils, momma," Sofia stated whilst holding a pack as high up to Callie's face as she could reach.

"The pink and purple ones? You got it, just grab two of them."

Sofia did as she was told and placed the pencils in the cart. She then saw the art supplies next to the pencils and dragged her mom there. There were so many supplies that neither kid nor adults knew existed.

She insisted on getting the colored glue sticks and when Callie wanted to say no, Arizona's inner child came out and grabbed to packs: one for the house and one for school. They also made sure to grab a 64 pack of crayons and a box of marks and place them into the cart.

Sofia and Arizona then headed off to the paper section while Callie, who wasn't really into this trip, grabbed a pink pair of child's safety scissors that Sofia forgot to grab.

She looked down to her daughter, while throwing the scissors in the cart, and said, "I hope you dislike shopping as much as I do when you grow up."

She pushed the cart to her family and laughed at the sight. Arizona was holding a notebook and Sofia was on the ground. There was an empty box next to Sofia and scattered notebooks all around.

"What's going on here?"

"Sofia could only find one princess notebook, but she wants another. I guess Princess Aurora isn't her favorite."

"I want a Rapunzel one! They don't have a Rapunzel one!" Sofia whined.

"Sofia, if you want to whine, we're going to go home."

"I don't want to go home!"

"Then pick up those notebooks and stand up. We still have more supplies to get. We can look for a Rapunzel notebook a different day. Maybe your mother will take you to another store later."

"Okay," Sofia sniffled. She picked up the notebooks and Arizona put them back onto the shelf. "What else do we need to get, mommy?"

"I think we just need to get you a pencil box for all of your new supplies and a lunch box. I think I saw the pencil boxes by the pencils earlier."

Sofia led them back to the pencils and they finished their shopping trip. The babies were starting to fuss and they wanted to get out of the store before a total meltdown occurred.


"Mommy, I'm hungry!" Sofia screamed once they were home.

"No yelling, Sofia. We're trying to get the babies to take a nap," Arizona tried her hardest not to yell at her oldest child.

"Sorry, mommy, but I'm hungry," Sofia quietly said while walking into the nursery where her entire family was. She giggled at the sight of her parents hold her brother and sisters with miscellaneous clothing items and blankets all over the room.

"We'll feed you, baby, as soon as these ones fall asleep," Callie offered.

"Okay, momma," Sofia replied, walking back out of the nursery.

Just as the babies were finally getting settled and closing their eyes, Callie's phone started going off in the other room. It caused for Ethan to wake up and start wailing. Callie quickly picked up the child and rushed out of the room. One child may not want to go down, but she wasn't going to have all three of them up again and crying.

The caller I.D. on her phone read Mark's number. Callie reluctantly answered the phone. It had been weeks since she last spoke to him when it wasn't through her wife.

"Hello Mark," Callie sighed, trying to get Ethan to calm down.

"Hey Torres!"

"What do you want?"

"Did I call at a bad time?"

"Actually Mark, you did. Its nap time for the babies and your phone call got Ethan crying."

"I'm really sorry, Cal."

"It's fine, I guess. What do you want though? I have to get Ethan down and then make lunch for Sofia."

"I'm calling about Sofia."

"Okay, what about her?"

"Can I come pick her up or something? I haven't seen her in a while and I'm still on medical leave. I thought that maybe I could spend some time with her before school started again."

"Today's not good, Mark. Arizona and her are going somewhere later. You can pick her up from daycare tomorrow though. We both have to work so the kids are going to be there."

"Okay, uh, what time are you guys working? So I know when to come get Sofia." This conversation was slightly becoming awkward. Mark was Callie's best friend but they hadn't actually talked in weeks. He had become so distant since they found out about the triplets.

"I don't know. I have a surgery scheduled for 8 tomorrow morning. I guess I can bring Sofia with me then and you can pick her up. She's usually up with the triplets by 6."

"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow. Thank you."

"Bye." Callie hung up the phone and kissed her son. He had stopped crying a few minutes ago and he was starting to drift off to sleep once again.

Callie carried him to his crib and set him down. She saw that Arizona was still in the nursery holding Addie. "I'm going to make Sofia lunch, so you want anything?"

"No, I'm good for now. I'll get myself something later."

"Alright." Callie walked into the kitchen and found her daughter waiting at the table with a coloring book.

"Sofia, what do you want for lunch?" Callie asked her daughter.

"Peanut butter!"

"You had peanut butter yesterday and you didn't touch it."

"But I want peanut butter today!"

"Will you eat it?"

"Mhm, I will," Sofia said alongside a classic head nod.

"Do you promise? Promise me that if I make you a peanut butter sandwich that you will eat it."

"I promise, momma."

Callie made Sofia half a peanut butter sandwich knowing that Sofia wouldn't eat it. She put it on a plate and threw some baby carrots next to it. She set it on Sofia's spot at the table and went to slice an apple. Sofia started to munch on her carrot sticks.


A few hours later, the babies were up, fed, and being loved by their older sister. All the Torres-Robbins children were in the living room while The Little Mermaid was playing on the TV.

Today was Sofia and Arizona's day and Sofia was impatiently waiting. She wanted to go have fun with her mommy, but time was just going by so slowly.

"Can we leave now?" Sofia pleaded.

"When your movie is over. There's five minutes left and the fair will still be there after Ariel and Eric get married."

"Fine," Sofia pouted.


"Mommy, why are these people dressed up?" Sofia asked slightly freaked out by the carnies.

"They're just workers here. Some of them like to dress up. They are all kind of weird, but that's what makes this place different. So what do you want to do first, Ms. Sofia?"

"Let's go on the ride!" Sofia pointed to a kiddie roller coaster and started to drag Arizona that way.

"Hold on, Sofia, I'm going to have to buy you a wristband."

After purchasing an unlimited ride band for her daughter, Arizona sat on a bench in front of the coaster. Having only one child with her wasn't wearing her down as fast as if she were left with all of them.

She watched Sofia repeatedly go on the roller coaster. And after an hour by the rides, Sofia was starting to get hungry. Arizona decided to indulge Sofia and her with a funnel cake. Though they were just circles of fried dough, Arizona could never help herself from buying one or two of them when the fair came to town.

"Here Sofia, it's a funnel cake."

"What's that?"

"It's a doughnut. You love doughnuts."

They shared a funnel cake and talked about Sofia and first grade. They had a great bonding date and Arizona was able to see the young woman that Sofia was too quickly becoming. Sure she was only six, but those six years have gone by way too fast in Arizona's opinion.

Arizona looked at her daughter and saw the tired look in her daughter's eyes. "I think it's time to go home. You look like one mighty tired Sofia and we have a lot of things to do the next few days."

"I'm not tired mommy, I promise," Sofia stated, with a yawn following.

"I beg to differ. Come on, let's go home. I'm sure your momma can't wait to tuck you into your nice soft bed."

"Okay," was all that Sofia could reply.

Arizona couldn't get Sofia to leave without picking her up and carrying her out of the park. She was just lucky that Sofia was still tiny enough to be carried.

They made it home safely and Sofia was fast asleep. The babies were already in bed, Sofia was tucked in, and Callie and Arizona had a few moments of peace before they too were off to dream land.

"Hey, I'm going to take Sofia with me when I go to work tomorrow."

"Why? Aren't you going in for an 8 o'clock surgery?"

"Yeah, but Mark called earlier and asked if he could take Sofia. He said that it's been weeks since he saw her and wanted to spend time with his daughter before she went back to school."

"Is he taking her for the night?"

"I don't know, but I don't see why he couldn't. One of us will just have to pick her up. She does start school in a couple of days."

"That will give us some extra free time. We can finish school shopping, and I don't know, have some free time of our own," Arizona looked at her wife.

"That sounds… wonderful," Callie sighed. "Come on, let's go to sleep."


By six o'clock the next morning, as expected, the Torres-Robbins family was up and moving. Callie packed a bag for Sofia and helped Arizona feed the triplets. Sofia ate a bowl of cereal and ran to her room to get dressed.

Once the babies were fed, Callie went and took a quick shower and got ready for work. By 7:15 she was ready to leave the house. She had Sofia's hand in one hand and a baby carrier in the other. To help out Arizona, who didn't have to be to the hospital until 11, she was bringing two of four children with her.

They made it to the hospital by 7:45 and Mark was there waiting.

"Daddy!" Sofia yelled running up to her father.

"Hey munchkin," he said, kneeling down to her height and giving her a hug. Standing up, he said, "hey Torres."

"Hey Mark. Here's her bag. Uh, just call one of us when you want us to pick her up." Looking down to her excited daughter she said, "bye Sofia, have fun with your dad."

"I love you momma," Sofia expressed, hugging her mom.

"I love you too," Callie responded, kissing Sofia on the head. She then walked off to drop her other child off at the day care.

She couldn't help but laugh at what she just overheard from the father daughter duo:

"Do you want to go to the fair today? I heard it's fun there."

"No, daddy. Mommy took me there yesterday. It was a lot of fun though. We had funnel cake and she let me go on the rides!"
