Alice glanced in the dressing room mirror. The nightgown was green silk and it fitted her well, except her breasts. She sighed. A wail erupt in the dressing room.
"Is it your lunch time? I know we've been a gone for awhile," Alice sighed. She ducked her head out. "I need a bigger size and would it be ok if I nurse here?"
Alice got the final burp out of Aidan. She placed the baby back in the stroller.
"Do you have a baby doll style?" I need to get this done before the party tonight.
Alice sighed and checked her watch. An hour before the doctor's appointment.
"Aww, you look so adorable!" Monica said.
"Don't said anything. It took me an hour to convince her to get dress," Tracy warned.
"But she does. Why doesn't she likes it?"
"I have striped tights on! Why do I have to be an elf?" Brook Lyn complained.
"It's a tradition. Dillon did it, Emily did it and in another fifteen years these two will do it," Tracy said, checking on the squirming bundles in the stroller.
"How are they?" Monica asked.
"Fine. We're just waiting for Mere to come back from the doctor's, yeah, because you two already went to the doctor's."
"Is everything on target for them?" Monica went into doctor mode.
"Perfect for six weeks. I just hope Alice's o.k. I had to ask for a favor to get her in today" Tracy said.
"Is Alice sick?" Brook Lyn asked worriedly.
Monica snickered. Tracy shot her a look.
"Alice's fine, just recovering from the labor," Tracy said.
"Meaning you have to wait for…." Monica laughed.
"Oh! So you and Alice haven't been having…," Brook Lyn mumbled, blushing.
"Mmm-mmm. But it doesn't concern you. Although it's amusing Tracy is chomping at the bit," Monica said.
"You'll baby-sit them?" Tracy asked.
"I didn't say that. Alan and I are hosting Christmas in two days," Monica said.
"Monica!"
" I could watch them," Brook Lyn said.
"Well, there you go." Monica laughed.
"We'll see."
"What are we seeing about?" Alice asked.
"Brook has offered to baby-sit for us."
"Tonight?"
Tracy raised her eyebrow. "New Year's. Tonight?"
Alice pulled Tracy to her. "After we put the twins down, I think we can, oh, fool around."
"Really?"
"And if you watch the twins for a couple hours, I can prepare for your early Christmas present."
"What do you have to do?" Tracy kissed Alice.
"I haven't shave in a couple weeks."
"At this point I don't care."
"Tracy! Let me please shave and do other things," Alice laughed.
"How long?"
"Tracy, you'll get your present tonight."
"Well, in that case, why don't you leave now and take a nice long bath?" Tracy softly kissed her wife.
" I think that's a good idea. " Alice smiled.
"After all, I want you well rested for tonight." Tracy's eyes roamed her wife's body. Alice blushed.
"Good Lord, Tracy, do you want me to find an empty exam room for you to ravish your wife?" Monica asked.
"Why yes, Monica, that would be nice. But right now we are require to listen to the Christmas story."
"Tiger, it's your children's first Christmas. Relax and enjoy it. We'll get to the other thing eventually." Alice kissed her wife, breaking away when she heard a cry from the stroller. She picked up Aidan and bounced her.
"Or not." Tracy smiled at Aidan in her mother's arms.
"Hello baby girl. How's my baby?" Tracy cooed. Aidan snuggled closer to Alice. Alice sighed.
"I think she just likes me more because of food thing now, Tiger."
"Well, I can't blame her. I like those things myself," Tracy said, checking on Morgan, "Morgan's sacked out."
"He's taking after Alan. Give him food and he's down for the count," Monica smiled.
"Yeah, Aidan's a bit of a diva. I would who she gets that from," Alice rubbed the baby's back.
"I'm not a diva. I just know what I want and I have incredibly good taste," Tracy kissed Alice.
"Tracy…."Alice groaned.
"Hmmm?"
"Not for nothing but we are at the hospital, in a room full of children. And you're crushing Aidie."
"You are putting on a show, Mother? I think we don't need to know about your nighttime activities," Ned said.
"Hey! I've been very good. Tell them how good I've been."
Alice gave Tracy a look. "Last night after we got up with the kids? You call that good?"
Tracy smirked. "We were both up anyway…."
Alice chuckled. "Do you always get your way?"
"Not always but that's half the fun."
"Oh, Grandfather makes a good Santa. Brook Lyn's adorable!" Ned said.
"She was afraid she would look dorky. I had to bribe her," Tracy lifted the squirming bundle out of the stroller.
"Wow, he's gotten big. I can't believe he grew so much in a month. You can't tell by the web cam and photos," Ned played with his little brother's hand.
"He has gained about five pounds over the past month. Just by breastfeeding," Tracy shifted the baby to his brother.
"Hi. You might not to remember me, but I'm your big brother, Ned. And you're so cute!" Ned cooed. Morgan stretched and then snuggled into his brother's arms.
"Brook Lyn is getting a car this year," Tracy rolled her eyes at Alice.
"It's a nice car."
"It's used."
"Just two years old. A nice dependable Mazda." Alice smiled.
"Not a Ferrari? " Ned asked.
"She drives like her grandmother," Alice explained.
"Ah." Ned knew that Tracy had gone through two clutches and a transmission in the year's time. Alice had replaced the one clutch and then refused to work on the car anymore.
"I'm getting better. You let me drive the babies home." Tracy said.
"Oh, Tiger, I would've but I was so sore."
"How about now?" Tracy asked.
"Well enough for what you're planning." Alice's eyes held promises of desire.
"I can't wait."
