"Janet" Jack yelled out and then she woke up and smiled.

"Some anniversary present, huh guys," she said stoking her stomach with a smile on her face. Then she went back to sleep again.

Later that evening, Sam was able to get Janet alone while Jack was getting her a drink.

"Janet"

"Yes Sam; are you ok?"

"Yeah but tonight stay close by."

"Sam?"

"I had a dream; my water broke just after ringing in the New Year."

"Thanks for the warning."

"Sure but don't tell the others, especially Jack."

"No problem."

Later that evening, they all went to the Air Force Academy to bring in the New Year. Everyone was enjoying themselves and Janet went to mingle until just before midnight when she went to stand close to Sam as the count down began.

"Daniel, get the others"

"Janet?"

"Just do it and get ready to move out, it's Sam."

"She had a dream."

"Yes, so move it and happy New Year Daniel."

"Happy New Year Janet" they kissed as everyone brought in the New Year.

"Now go" she turned when she heard Jack yell out for her and she quickly went over to them.

"Her water broke."

"Ok, let's get you to the hospital. Jack, go and get your truck and meet us at the entrance."

"Ok" He went out to get the truck.

"Daniel is rounding up everyone."

"Ok, good idea."

They started heading to the exit when Cassie, Jacob, Jonas and Sarah met them at the doors. By the time they got outside, Mark and his family had made it through the crowd. They all got into the SUV's and then they were on their way to the hospital. Janet phoned ahead, so that when they arrived, they could quickly get Sam into a theatre, since the twins were large and one of them had the umbilical cord wrapped around its neck but it was lose.

When they arrived at the hospital the gurney was already waiting for them. Janet and Jacob were in Sam's SUV with Jacob driving. Jack was in the back seat with Sam while Janet was in the front. Once Janet, Jack and Sam were out, Jacob went to park the car like Daniel and Teal'c were doing.

Daniel was driving Janet's car and Teal'c was driving his. When they got to the ER, Janet started barking orders. Within ten minutes Sam was changed, cleaned up and into the theatre. Jack was with her since he didn't want to miss out on anything.

"Ok Sam, here we go" Jack was holding Sam's hand while they were looking into each other's eyes.

"Some New Year" Jack said.

"Yeah, some wedding anniversary."

"True; it looks like we are going to have a double cerebration."

"There will be more cake on New Year's day."

"True, how are you feeling?"

"Good, I can't believe it; we are going to be parents soon."

"I know" he leaned over and gave Sam a kiss and then they herd their first baby cry.

"It's a boy."

"Jonathan Jack O'Neill Junior" Sam said.

Jack gave Sam a kiss and then the nurse passed the baby to Jack who then put him in Sam's arms.

"Beautiful."

"Yes he is, he looks like you and Dad."

"What do you mean Sam?"

"He has your eyes and Dad's hair" Jack laughed.

"I'm glad Dad is not here to hear you say that."

"True" Then the nurse came to take him away to get cleaned up. Then they heard a second baby cry.

"It a boy, you have twin boys."

"Ian Charles O'Neill."

Then he gave her another kiss and their second son was passed to them.

"He looks like Jon."

"Identical twins but you can tell the difference."

"How?" Jack asked.

"Look on Ian's right arm."

Jack unwrapped his son and looked at his arm; there was a heart shaped birthmark on it.

"Jon has the same birthmark but on his wrist."

"Ah, thanks for telling us Janet" then the nurse came and took Ian away to clean him up.

"Congratulations you two."

"Thanks Janet."

"I'll wait until morning to get you to the SGC so you can use the sarcophagus."

"Thanks" Janet stitched Sam up and then cleaned her. Once she was finished, she left them alone while she went to check on the twins.

"I should go and tell the family."

"Stay with me, please? Once I'm settled in a room, I will ask Janet to bring the twins in and then you can get the family."

"Good idea" they kissed again.

"I wonder who won the pool on the twins?" Sam asked.

"I'll find out later" and then Janet came in.

"We are going to move you into a private room now Sam."

"Ok Janet; how are the boys?"

"Big boys; Jon weighed eight pounds two ounces and Ian was eight pounds three ounces"

"Wow that is big."

"Yes it is." Jack moved out of the way so the staff could move Sam on to a bed.

"Janet, is there any chance for us to see the boys and letting the family in to see them?"

"Sure, once we get Sam settled in, I'll bring in the boys. They will be hungry and once they have been fed, I'll get the family."

"Thanks" they moved Sam into a private room with Jack beside the bed.

Once she was settled in, they were able to have Sam sit up as two nurses walked in with the twins. With Janet's help, they were able to lower the gown and one of the nurses passed Jon to Sam while the other passed Ian to Jack. Janet showed Sam what to do when it came to breast-feeding.

They smiled when Jon started drinking his first meal happily and then Ian started crying. Jack put Ian in Sam's other arm and helped him to her nipple and then he started to drink away happily.

"Buzz me if you need me for anything."

"Thanks Janet" then she walked out and left the family alone.

Jack sat on the edge of the bed watching Sam and their sons. He was completely happy for the first time since he met Sam, their first kiss, making love for the first time, the engagement, the wedding week and later. Being to finally take her to his cabin after almost eight years of asking, finding out that she was pregnant and then finding out that she was carrying twins.

He kept his promise and that was to make her happy which she was and she made him happy in return. When Jon was finished Jack took him from Sam's arm and burped him while Sam took care of Ian. They talked about the boys while they were nursing. Half an hour after Janet had left them alone Sam pushed the buzzer and waited for Janet to return.

"Hey, is every thing alright?"

"Yes thanks Janet. You can get the family now."

"Sure thing."

She walked out of the room and went down to the waiting room. When she walked in, they were all waiting to hear the news.

"Janet, how is Sam?" Jacob asked.

"Follow me, all of you" they followed Janet down to Sam's room.

When she opened the door Jack and Sam were kissing. They all walked in and could see them holding the twins in their arms. Jack passed Jon to Jacob.

"Everyone this is Jonathan Jack O'Neill Junior, JJ for short" then Sam passed him their other son and Jacob passed Jon to Mark.

"This is Ian Charles O'Neill" Jack said smiling.

He returned to Sam's side again, sitting on the bed with his arm around her, while she leaned against him.

"Jack, who is Ian?" Cassie asked looking at JJ who was asleep.

"Ian was my father's name; he was killed at the end of the Korean War. I was three years old when he died" Sam held onto his hand and gave it a squeeze.

"They look like identical twins?" Laura said.

"They are but we can tell who is who. If you guys will look at their right arms" they removed the blankets to check each right arm. They saw the birthmarks and smiled.

"Ok, you can all come back this afternoon and see the twins; Sam needs her rest" Janet said.

Everyone took one last turn holding the boys and they were put into their basinets, which were next to the bed.

"Before you all go there is something I have to ask" Daniel said. Everyone turned and looked at him.

"What is it Daniel?" Sam asked. He looked at Janet

"I wanted to do this in front of family and friends."

He pulled a box out of his pocket with one hand and held on to Janet's hand with the other and then he got down on one knee, looking up at Janet.

"Janet, you know that I love you and you mean the world to me. Ever since my first wife passed away, I thought I would never love again, until you came into my life. Janet, would you give me the honour of becoming my wife and I'll let you keep your last name."

He opened the box and it revealed an oval ruby surrounded by twelve diamonds set in 18ct yellow gold. Janet gasped when she saw the ring.

"Yes Daniel, I will marry you."

He took the ring out and slipped it onto her finger and then stood up and kissed her in front of everyone. They congratulated them both and looked at the ring. They stayed, talking, for ten more minutes before leaving. Janet had a few more things to do before she could go home herself.

Jack stayed with Sam and the boys until Janet was ready to go home. Jack watched Sam sleep and then looked at the boys and back at Sam again. An hour later, Janet came into the room and found Jack rocking one of his sons in his arms.

"JJ woke up a few minutes ago and now he is almost asleep."

"Ok, how are you feeling?"

"Tired, happy."

"I'll bet you are."

"Janet, when do you think Sam and I can, you know, make love again?" Janet chuckled.

"Why do you ask?"

"Well, after Sara had Charlie she told me no sex for four months."

"No, you could have sex a week after birth but shouldn't think about having trying another baby for four months. Now that we have a sarcophagus, if you to want to try again you can but I suggest you wait until these two are a little older."

"Ok thanks."

He put his son back in the basinet and then gave them both a kiss on the forehead. He gave Sam a kiss also, which made her smile. Then he and Janet left for home for what was left of the night.

"You are more than welcome to stay at our house, saving you a drive all the way to your place after you drop me off."

"Thanks but Cassie will be waiting for me at home."

"Oh ok."

A few minutes later they pulled up to Jack and Sam's home and they noticed that some lights were on and then the front door opened and Jacob walked out to them.

"Janet, come on in, everyone is here."

"Oh ok, thanks."

Janet turned off the motor and got out and locked the door before they walked into the house and turned the shield on.

"Everyone is upstairs in bed, asleep and that is where I'm heading now, good night."

"Night Dad and happy New Year."

"You too son, Janet."

"Night Jacob" then Jacob went upstairs to bed.

"That is where I'm going now too, night Jack."

"Night Janet."

Then Janet went upstairs to the guest bedroom and found Daniel asleep. Jack walked into the office and turned the light on and closed the door. He turned the computer on and signed in. He went to the florist web site and ordered three dozen long stem red roses and 'I Love You' and 'Happy Anniversary' helium balloons for Sam. After he filled out the details, he was happy and shut down the computer a few minutes later and then went to bed himself, since it was almost 0400 in the morning.
