"Ok, baby, what shapes do you want to make the cookies?" Rachel asked as she rolled out the cookie dough to her famous sugar cookies. She and Chris were making cookies for Halloween to surprise Finn when he came home from work.

"Dinosaurs!" Chris yelled excitedly from his seat at the island in their kitchen. Rachel laughed and ruffled his hair. Her five-year-old loved dinosaurs. His room was full of dinosaur toys and his favorite was the green t-rex stuffed animal he had gotten for Christmas last year from Grandpa Burt and Grandma Carole. He carried it with him everywhere.

She rubbed her small baby bump with one hand and sorted through the cookie cutters with the other. She was only five months pregnant, but she couldn't wait until they had their little girl here to celebrate Halloween with, as well.

"What about these, Chris? Spiders and ghosts for Halloween!" Rachel said. She held up the ghost cookie cutter and playfully began tickle his tummy as she said "Boo!"

"Mama!" He started giggling and tried to wiggle away from her tickling fingers.

Rachel laughed along with him. "Are you excited to go trick-or-treating tonight, baby?" She brought the cookie dough closer to Chris and helped guide his little hands to press the cookie cutters into the dough.

"Yeah! Candy!" He looked up at her with a big smile. He was so excited to dress up in his robot costume this year. He and Finn had spent an entire day painting a cardboard box silver and coloring on buttons.

"I'm home! Mmm, what's that smell?" Finn's voice rang out through the apartment sometime later and Chris ran as fast as he could to meet him at the door.

"We made you cookies for Halloweeeeeeen, Daddy!" Chris yelled as Finn bent down to pick him up.

"Hmmm, you did?" Finn walked into the kitchen to see Rachel at the counter with a plate of cookies shaped like dinosaurs, spiders, and ghosts. "Hey, baby." Finn set Chris down on the counter to press a kiss against Rachel's lips. "And hi to you, princess," he bent over to press a kiss against Rachel's tummy.

"I colored that one just for you," Chris pointed at a dinosaur in the middle messily decorated with green icing and a red dot for an eye. It had a 'd' on its belly in blue icing. "See, 'd' for daddy!"

Finn laughed and took a bite of the cookie. He loved Rachel's sugar cookies—sometimes he thought if he had to eat one thing for the rest of his life, it would be her cookies. "It's great, little man," he ruffled Chris' hair and put the rest of the cookie in his mouth.

Finn went to sit down at the kitchen table, picking Chris up and placing him on his lap, the plate of cookies in front of them. Rachel sat next to him and laid her head against his shoulder as their son talked their ears off about all the candy he was going to get tonight when they went trick-or-treating. She nibbled on a cookie and smiled as she thought about this time next year when there would be another addition to their happy little family.
