Ch 32
"Surprise" everyone yells as Logan and I walk in with Lexie to our apartment and I look back at my husband who's got a smirk on his face.
"No wonder you took forever getting us home" I accuse him.
"Sorry, that was my fault, traffic was horrible coming into the city" Dad says and turn to see him with Gigi there.
"Daddy" I say hugging him.
"Married, 28 and a mom and you still call me daddy, kiddo" Dad laughs hugging me.
"That's never to change" I smile as Logan hands him Lexie.
"I'm a grandpa" he says looking at Mom.
"Hard reality isn't it? Maybe you should ask Mitchum for some tips, he seems like a pro now. Lexie is number what 5?" Mom laughs and he looks at Mitchum.
"Spoil them and then give them back" Mitchum laughs and I look at Logan.
"I now understand where you get it from" I smirk and he kisses me temple.
"She looks just like you" Dad says handing her back to me.
"Thanks" I smile before greeting everyone. I head to place Lexie in the bassinet in our room when Logan stops me.
"Logan, she's asleep" I state and he turns me around and almost pushes me into the nursery. I stop and stare. He finished it. Everything is done. Paint, new rugs, the crib, everything, I stunned
"Like it Ace" he questions encircling my waist from behind and placing his chin on my shoulder.
"Why did you do this" I say crying. I step out of his arms hand him Lexie and head to our room and slam the door.
"Ace" he says coming in and I'm on the bed crying. "Ace, come on talk to me please" he says laying next me.
"Why" I cry and he pulls me closer.
"You wanted it done this weekend and since Lexie came early, I wanted to surprise you. I wanted you to be able to come home and not worry about the half completed nursery. I wanted you to be able to come home and lay our daughter down in her crib" he says softly and I cry harder.
"But I wanted to do it with you" I say between cries.
"Everything is like you wanted Ace, down to the stenciling on the rocking chair. The room was half done already, all I did was put up the crib and have Lorelai put everything away like you would want it" he says and I look up at him.
"Diapers" I questions and he wipes some tears away.
"One the stacker and four boxes in the closet" he replies.
"Wipes, bibs, creams" I continue.
"All in the draws according to the chart, I think you might have OCD Ace" he smirks and hit his arm.
"I just…" I start and he leans down and kisses me softly.
"Want everything perfect, I know. I know you Ace; you would have been crazy trying to get it done and not enjoying your party. Then you would have been sore and grumpy tomorrow" he says as I sit up.
"You did all this so that you could save yourself from dealing with me cranky, didn't you?" I question.
"I have the right not to answer that" he states getting up.
"Don't try that on me Huntzberger" I state getting up slowly. I'm still sore.
"Come on, let's go get you some cake" he says grabbing my hand and leading me to the living room.
It was a welcome home baby party instead of a baby shower that was planned for next week. Everything was pink or purple. So girly and I loved it.
"I'm in pink ruffle hell" Logan states moving the rest of gifts into nursery as I'm feeding Lexie. Alex passed out hours ago.
"Welcome to a life with a girl" I smirk from the rocking chair and he looks at me.
"She's up, like completely awake" he says coming closer. Lexie is on my shoulder, eyes wide open.
"She has been for about twenty minutes" I say. That's the longest she has in the last three days.
"Come her princess" he says taking her from me.
"Look at you, eyes like your mommy's" he smiles at her and I just watch him. He's a great dad. Sure I saw that a year ago with Alex, but this is his baby girl, his little princess, the one that will have him wrapped around her finger for a lifetime.
"She's not dating until she's 30 and married" he states laying her on the changing table.
"We'll that will be hard especially being a Huntzberger and how is she supposed to get married without dating" I say watching him change her.
"Simple, we'll arrange her marriage to Jacob. At least we know that his parents" he states and shake my head at him.
"And what if Mitchum did that to you" I question taking my baby back from the overbearing papa bear.
"I would hate it, but I'm a boy" he states.
"And if my parents did that to me, we would never be standing here in love with her" I state laying her down.
"I guess falling in love and getting married is better. But, she's still not dating until she's 21" he states.
"Whatever you say Huntzberger" I smile kissing his cheek and walking back to our room to lie down.
Christmas
The weeks flew by with all the 2am feedings and the holiday prep for two kids. "So buddy, did you get everything you wanted" I question walking out with Lexie. She's staying awake more and Alex has really been a great help. Getting diapers, wipes, and blankets for me.
"No" he says looking up from his touch screen laptop for kids that we got him.
"No?" I question looking at my husband. He was in charge of all the gifts this year. I knew I should have done it myself, but he claimed that he could do it.
"Alexander, I think Santa gave you everything" Logan says walking over to take Lexie to feed her. Breastfeeding didn't work like Mom said it wouldn't. But now I get sleep because Logan and I take turns. He walks over to the recliner and feeds her. I love watching him with her. It's the perfect picture. This big player of Harford for years turned into Dad of the year.
"Oh he did, but not everything" Alex says.
"What is it that you wanted?" I question sitting on the couch and pulling him to my lap.
"I wanted swings" he says and I look at Logan who shrugs.
"Swings as in a swing set for a backyard" I try and he nods.
"Buddy we live in the city, there's a park around the corner for swings" Logan says burping the baby.
"Not the same" Alex and I say together.
"Okay you two, but we work in the city Ace, it's easier to live here. I didn't have swings growing up and I turned out fine" he states and I nod. He has a point and Alex's school is here.
"Keep telling yourself that Logan, you grew up in a museum not a home" I state.
"But daddy you have a car you can drive and Mommy you can stay home and be with me and Lexie" Alex says and I smile at him.
"Mommy is going to work too Alex, remember that big building we went to last week. That's the place where Mommy and Daddy work" I say and he nods.
"Can we put swings there" he questions scratching his chin. Just like Logan.
"No, but why don't you give mommy her present now" Logan says placing Lexie in her bouncy on the floor.
"Okay" he says getting up and going under the tree and handing me a square box, the size of coat box.
"What in the world is this" I question looking at my smirking husband. "Mommy you have to open it, and I don't know; Daddy said I would tell you so he didn't tell me" Alex says. "Well then I guess you should help me open it then" I state as he rips the bow off. "It's another box" Alex says confused.
"Daddy like giving Mommy boxes inside of bags and bags inside of boxes" I smirk looking at Logan.
"Keep going" Logan states moving closer. I lift the smaller box out and open it. "What are these" I say knowing I'm holding blueprints.
"Unfold it" he instructs and I do.
"Logan" I say shocked.
"Daddy, are those swings?" Alex questions him looking at the plans.
"And a pool" Logan points to the plans and Alex's face lights up
"A pool whoa" he says excitedly.
"You bought us a house" I say still a little shaken.
"Bought, built, they are both B's" he says and slap his shoulder. "You would think she would be happy Alex, but no Mommy is still violent" he laughs.
"You built us a house" I say stunned.
"You didn't really think I wanted to raise them in the city did you? Come on Ace, you want to be closer to Lorelai and it' only 40 minutes from the city" he says as the phone goes off. "You should get that" he says and I look at him.
"Hello" I say and hear Steph screaming. "Steph" I say and see Logan smirking.
"Did you get? Are you going up there today? I'm trying to get Colin to take us did you see the size of the rooms girlie? This is so great" she says not breathing. She's been friends with me too long.
"What are you talking about" I question playing confused.
"Colin said that Logan was giving you blueprints too did he not, oh crap did I ruin the surprise. Pretend I never called" she says hanging up on me.
"Steph and Colin are moving too" I question my husband.
"Yes" he states. As the phone goes off again and this time I hear Rosemary screaming and I smirk
"It's a boy" she says and I smile.
"Congrats" I states and Logan looks at me. "Finn and Rosemary are having a boy" I state and he smirks.
"That's all we need another Finn. That boy better stay away from my daughter" he states and I hear Finn laughing through the phone.
"Did you get house RGH? Did you love it? I can't believe we're going to be neighbors" she questions. She added the H to RG after we got married. I will never lose that nickname.
"What house" I question playing with her.
"Crap, Finn I though you said Logan was giving her the house today" She yells hanging up.
"It seems they like hanging up on me" I smirk.
"Ace, the guys are going be pissed, we had it all planned out" he states before looking at my face. "Gilmore what am I going to do with you" he questions coming closer to me and encircling his arms around my waist.
"Kiss her" Alex says and we look up, mistletoe.
"Right you are buddy" Logan smirks leaning down and kissing me passionately. I wrap my arms around his neck and he keeps me close.
"Lexie, close your eyes, they're being yucky again" I hear Alex say and I break the kiss.
"Oh you're next little man" I state leaving Logan and Alex screams running away down the hall so I can't catch him.
