Because they have reviewed me nearly every single chapter that i have writen and they have given me loads of great ideas' to put in my story. LY.
Anyway, gona let you read the story now, enjoy!
Bella's POV
I didn't have to stay in hospital long, only over night just so that the nurses could keep a note on my medical information. They brought a small cot for Elizabeth to sleep in. she looked so perfect when she slept. I knew that she wouldn't be asleep for very long, if she was going to be anything like Naomi was, she was only going to sleep about 5 hours a night. Great!
I looked at her closely, and I was surprised at how much she looked like her sister. They were almost identical. Of course she looked more like Edward than me. I was there in her hair colour though, just like I was in Naomi, but the rest was all Edward.
I looked at the clock on the wall, it was 10.30 at night, I decided that I should go to sleep whilst I could. Carlisle had said that I would be able to take Elizabeth home tomorrow. I was happy that I didn't have to stay in hospital any longer that necessary and I was eager to see how my family would cope with a newborn baby in the house. I mean I knew that didn't have to sleep and staying up at night wasn't going to be a problem, but I just wanted to see how they were around her. None of them, apart from Esme had ever been around young children before. This should be interesting.
I pulled myself away from gazing at my daughter, and laid back on the pillow and went to sleep.

The next morning was pretty hectic. Edward had to fit a baby seat into the Volvo, while Alice had gone mad with baby clothes and was deciding on what Elizabeth was going to wear home. Emmett and Jasper were at the house getting everything ready for when we came home. So that meant that they had to sterilise everything that the baby was going to need like Bottles and dummies.
I had left the room to get changed while Alice was deciding on a outfit. When I got back I wanted to see what Alice had put my baby in. it wasn't as bad as I thought it would have been.
Alice had opted for a simple pink baby grow and a small pick hat.
"I didn't think you would want anything to…me on her, so I just thought id put her in plain pink." She told me. I had to agree with her on that.
"And you, are going to be the prettiest baby in the world with aunty Alice dressing you." she said now turning her attention to Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was lying on the bed looking up at Alice looking a bit stunned at the new world around her.
I had my back turned to the door and didn't realise that Edward had come back, until I felt his arms wind around my waist and he rested his head on my shoulder.
"You ready to go home?" he asked, looking over at Alice who was still fussing with the baby.
I nodded my head. Edward bent his head forward and kissed me on the lips.
I went over to Alice and picked Elizabeth up off the bed and put her in a baby carrier to take her to the car. I put her in the carrier and did up all the buckles around her so that she was safe. For a newborn baby she was very alert, she was looking around at everything. I could see that she focused on peoples faces more than anything else.
I picked up the carrier and carried it to the car. Edward fastened the carried to the back seat of the car whilst I got in the other side so that I could sit next to her.
I put my finger into her hand and she grasped it automatically. She looked at her hand where my finger was, I moved my finger up and down. Because she was so small, that small movement made her whole arm move. I started to cry, because I loved her so much. Edward looked back at me in the read view mirror.
"Bella, what's the matter?" he asked.
"Nothing, im fine. I just cant believe how much I love her." I said through my tears. The feeling of love that I felt for this little girl was unbelievable, I bet if Jasper was here he would be having a field day with all the emotions that I was throwing out.
Edward smiled at me from the front of the car and continued to drive home.
By the time that we got the house, Elizabeth was fast asleep. Great, first night I bring her home and I'm going to be up all night with her.
Edward pulled the car to the front the of the house and got out. I undid all the buckles that were holding the car seat to the car and picked the seat up and took it out of the car.
I walked into the house with a sleeping Elizabeth in her seat and was greeted by my all to eager brother to see his niece.
"WHERE'S MY BABY NEICE!" Emmett's voice boomed through the house when I walked in.
I saw Elizabeth jump in her seat and she started to cry. And it wasn't just a cry that babies cry for on a everyday basis, she was scared. There were tears in her eyes as she screamed at a very high pitch.
I put her down on the floor and took her out of the seat.
"Emmett, will you please not do that. its going to take me forever to get her back down if she is scared." I said as I picked Elizabeth up and started to rock her. she was still crying. I felt a sudden wave of calm come over the room and Elizabeth started to settle down. I looked at Jasper who smiled at me.
"Am I doing my job better now?" he asked sarcastically. I remember shouting at him that he wasn't doing a very good job of calming me when I was in labour.
"Yes, you are doing a good job now" I answered him, smiling back. I looked back and Elizabeth, she was falling asleep again.
I watched her as she fell asleep again.
"I'm going to go put her up stairs. Ill be right back" I told everyone as I walked up stairs.
I didn't want to put her in her cot right away, so I went into mine and Edwards room and put her on my bed. I put a pillow and each side of her just in case she rolled over and fell off the bed.
I left the room and went back down stairs.
"Hey Em. Did you sterilise the dummies?" I asked when I walked into the living room.
"Yea, they are in the kitchen." He said.
I went into the kitchen and picked one up. Alice had gone a but mad with the baby shopping and she had bought about 30 different dummies. She wasn't going to need all of them in her life.
I went back upstairs again.
When I got upstairs, Naomi was lying on the bed looking at her sister.
"Naomi, don't wake the baby." I said as I walked over to the bed.
"Im being quiet mommy. I just want to look at her." she said. Naomi was playing with Elizabeth's hand. She watched it close around her finger and smiled.
I walked over to the bed and put the dummy in Elizabeth's mouth.
"Come on Naomi, come help me down stairs?" I said. I picked Naomi up off the bed and walked downstairs.
I had so many things to do before Elizabeth would wake up. I needed to make a bottle for when she woke up, I needed to get some nappies out, put bottles in the fridge for tonight.
I walked downstairs and put Naomi down in the living room, where she went over and sat on Emmett's lap. I went into the kitchen and started to make up bottles filled with baby milk.
Everyone in the house kept their distance from me while I was making up the babies milk. They hated the small of normal milk and baby milk smelt bad to me, so I had no idea what it smelt like to them.
I made up 4 bottles and milk and put them in the fridge, this saved me making up new feeds through out the day.
It took me about half a hour to make up all the bottles and put them in the fridge, I then walked back into the living room to see everyone doing their own thing.
Edward was on his piano with Naomi on her lap showing her how to play the lullaby that he wrote for her. it was so sweet and calming. She was getting really good at playing her lullaby.
Emmett was sitting on the sofa watching TV while Rose was sitting next to his feet reading a magazine.
I couldn't see Alice and jasper anywhere, they must have gone hunting or something.
I walked over and sat next to Emmett to watch TV. He was watching a game that looked like football, but the players weren't wearing big helmets and padding.
"What are you watching Em?" I asked him.
"Rugby. It's a big game aswell. Wales VS England. I'm not sure what the point of the game is, but it is quite violent. 2 player have gone off with broken ankles already and it isn't even half time yet." He said smiling and still watching the TV.
I watch the players on the screen. I had to admit, some of the players on the field were extremely hot! Wow!
I was lost in my own world when jasper and Alice came in.
"Whoa Bells, where is all this lust coming from. Edward is way over there!" Jasper said as he walked into the house.
"Rugby players" is all I said to him back.
"What are you talking about Bella?" Alice asked as she walked over to the sofa and stood behind me. I just pointed at the Tv.
"I see. Wow! I like this game" Alice said as she jumped over the sofa and sat next to me.
We sat there and watched the men on the screen run around in shorts and tight tee shirts.
We watched the game until it finished. When the ref blew the whistle to end the game the score was 21-16 to Wales.
Me and Alice were still watching the TV even after the players had left the pitch.
"Well that was interesting." Alice said when Emmett decided to knock off the TV.
"Yea. Im starting a to do list and top of the list at the moment is to see a Rugby match" I told her while laughing a little.
"I agree. But it should be a girls only trip. I think it is only fair if men are allowed to look at other women, then we should be allowed watch other men" she said while winking at me.
Jasper cleared his throat from the other side of the room.
"Excuse me. Husband in the room." He said raising his hand.
"And father of your children." Edward said from the piano.
I poked my tongue out at him.
I got up from the sofa and went to walk into the kitchen, when I heard Elizabeth crying up stairs. I turned around and went to walk up the stairs.
I went into my room and Elizabeth was still lying in between the pillows that I had put her in earlier.
"Hello my beautiful girl." I said as I picked her up. She was still crying, she must have been hungry, she hadn't been fed since we came back from the hospital.
I picked her up and carried her down stairs.
"What's all the noise about?" Emmett asked from the sofa.
"She is hungry." I said as I walked into the living room.
Edward came up to me and took Elizabeth off me so that I could go into the kitchen and make up her bottle. I pulled one of the bottles out of the fridge and boiled the kettle so that I could warm the milk up.
"Bella, where is this child's dinner. She is screaming out here." Emmett said from the living room.
"Do you want to make up her milk?" I asked from the kitchen, knowing that he would never come anywhere near milk.
"On second thought, I think ill endure the screaming." He answered.
I smiled to myself as I continued to warm up the babies milk.
When it was done, I checked the milk on my wrist to make sure that it wasn't too hot. It was fine.
I walked back into the living room and sat on the sofa and put the bottle down on the table and took Elizabeth off Edward.
"Right miss, lets see how hungry you are." I said to her as I picked up the bottle and gave it to her. As soon as I out the bottle in her mouth she stopped crying.
She was very hungry, she finished her milk in about 5 minutes and she had drank every drop.
After she had finished her bottle, I put her over my shoulder and tapped her back to wind her. Once I had done that, I cradled her in my arms and rocked her.
"Alice, can you go get me her bouncer from her room?" I asked. I knew she was going to go back to sleep so I thought she would be comfier if she was lying down instead of being in my arms.
Alice reappeared from upstairs with a bouncer in her hand. She set it down next to my feet and I laid Elizabeth in it and did up the buckles. Once she was in, I could see that her eyes were starting to close again.
I picked up a magazine and started to look through it. I put my toe lightly on the back of the bouncer and started to tap my foot lightly so that I was rocking Elizabeth.
It didn't take her too long until she had fallen asleep again.
"So is this all she does." Rose asked from the other end of the sofa.
"Yea basically. Until she is older this is all that she is going to do. You are so lucky that you cant sleep, I' going to be up all night with her." I said and went back to reading my magazine.
I looked down at Elizabeth, she looked so sweet when she was asleep.
"Im going to have to take her to see Renee soon." I said, not to anyone in particular.
"Oh I forgot to show you." Alice said as she got up and walked out of the room. I had no idea what she was on about now.
When Alice came back into the room, she was pushing a big black pram. I stood up and went over to look at the pram. It was gorgeous. The out side of the pram was black with a hood going over the top. Inside the pram there was a white silk lining that went all around the inside of the pram. As I looked closer at the silk that lined the pram, I noticed that there were little ovals sewn onto the fabric. I looked closer at the little shapes on the inside of the pram.
Inside the little black ovals was the Cullen's crest all over the inside of the pram. I stepped back and looked at Alice.
"Carlisle and Esme bought this didn't they?" I asked Alice.
"Yea, they thought it was only fair since they bought ear rings for Naomi, that they bought the baby something." She said.
I was going to say that I didn't want them spending a lot of money, but I had learned that being part of this family, you need to learn that money isn't a option when it comes to buying stuff.
I folded the pram up and put it under the stairs. I sighed and went back over to the sofa to sit with my baby.
Sooo, what did you think.
Right, i have been a busy girl and i have been composing lullabys. Well when i say composing i mean making a song up on teh spot while filming with a camera. The link to my YouTube account is on my profile. go on there and you will be able to listen to Naomi's Lullaby. I will be uploading Elizabeths lullaby, but i just want to see what you think about the first one. So when you review, make sure you listen and tell me what you think.
Anyway, next chapter i will get Emmett and Jasper on baby duty. Changing Nappies. oh im evil lol.
Anyway, you know what to do. Reviews are love.
