"I'll distract them while you all set up." Amanda says to Whitney, Gloria, Quinn and Mercedes.
"Thank you, Amanda." Whitney says.
Amanda heads into the kitchen where the two women are with Stella.
"I need your help with redecorating my place." Amanda tells both of them.
"I love to decorate." Santana says.
"I'd like your help too Brittany." Amanda says.
"We do have a good eye for things." Brittany says picking Stella up.
The pair follow Amanda out to her house.
"They're gone," Quinn says.
"Let's get decorating." Mercedes says to Quinn.
"I'll start cooking." Gloria says.
"I'll go grab the presents and games from the car." Whitney says.
They break apart to complete their tasks. They have only an hour before the other guests start arriving.
"Should we hang these up here?" Quinn asks holding up a string of paper bottles.
"Yes, and these here." Mercedes says holding up some baby blue and pink streamers.
It doesn't take long before the pair has the living room and dining room all decorated.
"Looks good," Whitney says having brought in the presents and baby shower games.
"We should set up the games." Quinn says.
"I love this one." Whitney says about the game they are setting up.
"Why do I get the feeling you and Gloria will own us in these games?" Mercedes says.
"Oh god, I never thought of that." Quinn gasps.
She absolutely hates losing. Almost more than Santana.
"We have played these games a lot more than you two." Whitney says.
"And we will own the two of you." Gloria says popping her head in. "If you three are done in here, I could use your help in the kitchen."
"Of course," Whitney says getting up.
With Gloria taking the lead, and the other three following her lead, they finish with enough time for them to freshen up.
"They are going to be so shocked." Quinn says looking at their hard work.
"Let's hope," Mercedes says.
That's when the other guests arrive. Both managers, Santana's producer, a few other celebrity friends and Mario and Pierce.
"I just texted Amanda to bring them." Mercedes says.
"Okay everyone get ready!" Gloria loudly says.
"Thank you for the ideas." Amanda says leading them towards the living room.
"Surprise!"
Santana jumps a little and Stella squeaks, hiding her head in Brittany's chest. Brittany just smiles. She had suspected they were planning something.
"We wanted to throw you a baby show." Gloria tells her daughter.
"Thanks, mami," Santana says.
She goes around saying hi to everyone. Pierce manages to steal away Stella and is entertaining her. Mario is talking to the girls' managers. Whitney and Gloria are talking to the other famous people here.
"Thanks for doing this." Brittany says to Amanda, Quinn and Mercedes.
"We wanted to do this since you didn't have one last time." Mercedes says.
"You two deserve to have a baby shower thrown by your loving friends and family." Quinn says.
"I knew you two would it." Amanda says.
"It is nice to have you all here celebrating." Brittany says.
"Just wait till we get going on the games." Quinn says.
"Is she still on beating us?" Brittany asks.
"Whose trying to beat us?" Santana asks coming over.
"Quinn and yes," Mercedes says.
"Yeah, right you're going to beat us." Santana says.
"I think your moms are going to whip everyone." Amanda points out.
"You're right, mami's been to a lot of showers." Santana grumbles. "Thanks for throwing this baby shower for us. It's nice to have everyone we care about here." she adds.
"You know that we all love a good party." Mercedes says.
"Okay everyone!" Whitney shouts. "It's time to play some games."
Whitney and Gloria go on to win the seven games that they had set up. Quinn is aghast that she didn't win once, she had been so close on the diaper game. Mercedes comforts Quinn how is very upset. The men stayed out of it entertaining Stella instead. Brittany has her arm wrapped around Santana, both of them smiling having had fun.
"I think it's time to open the presents." Amanda says knowing that several of the guests will have to leave soon.
"Yes, I'm so excited to see what you all got us." Santana says sitting on the couch.
Everyone chuckles knowing Santana well.
"Here you go San," Brittany says handing her the first practice.
"That's from me." Santana's manager says.
Santana opens it which is a basket of baby clothes and a few other small things.
"Thank you," Brittany says.
"My assistant bought it as I'm baby clueless." Santana's manager says causing everyone to chuckle.
They slowly open the presents. Receiving more clothes, toys, blankets, two car seats from their parents, diapers and various other items they'll need. The last gift they get is from Amanda.
"I had to get you this." Amanda says rolling out a four-seat stroller.
"Of course," Brittany says smiling.
"We're not having a fourth for years." Santana says glaring at Brittany.
Their moms laugh at this and slowly everyone else joins in even Santana.

"Doggy ukl gool eh ba ka." Stella says to everyone around her.
"I can't believe how much she's talking." Gloria says. "You were always a quiet baby."
"Brittany was a talker." Whitney says.
Today is Stella's second birthday and they're having a small party. Gloria, Whitney, Mario and Pierce are leaving tomorrow.
"Which is funny since Santana talks way more than Brittany now." Quinn says dodging Santana who tries to shove her.
"She wants cake." Pierce says.
"How do you know?" Mercedes asks. "She has that weird look like she's trying to poop."
"She told me." Pierce says shrugging.
"Wait," Quinn says. "You understood that?"
"Seriously dad?" Brittany says.
"No way," both Santana and Gloria say.
"He's always been able to." Whitney says nodding.
Just then Mario comes in Amanda who was helping him with some of his social media.
"Why are we all staring at Pierce like he has two heads?" Mario asks, Pierce pats his shoulders looking for a second head.
"He says he can understand Stella and she wants cake." Mercedes says after a minute of silence.
Mario goes over to the cake, cutting a piece and giving it to Stella.
"Here you go little one." Mario says.
Stella smiles babbles a few words at her grandpa before sticking her hands into the piece of cake and shoving them in her mouth.
"She says thank you." Pierce says.
They all stare at Pierce, wide mouth but Whitney who already knew this about her husband.
"Your father understood what you were saying at that age too." Whitney says. "Let's have cake."
"Mom we can't just ignore this." Brittany says.
"Yes, you can, I did." Whitney says.
Stella stares at them blinking. She smiles before throwing cake at them laughing.
"What's she saying now?" Gloria asks cleaning cake out of her hair.
"Well, she's happy now and we probably shouldn't give her more cake." Pierce says. "I can't understand everything."
"Why don't we open presents since I doubt any of us want cake now." Santana suggests, clearing her hair too.
"I'll have cake." Pierce says.
"We don't need any more cake near Stella right now." Whitney tells her husband.
"I feel like that is so a Santana thing to do." Quinn says.
"She did throw cake at her first four birthdays." Mario confirms.
"Dad," Santana whines.
Brittany rounds everyone up, going into the living to open presents.
"Here, open mine first." Quinn says handing a large box to Brittany.
Brittany helps Stella with pulling the wrapping off.
"What did Quinn get you?" Santana asks frowning when she sees a box.
Stella babbles, happily climbing into the box.
"A box, kids her age likes boxes better than toys." Quinn says proud of herself.
"Cheap ass," Santana grumbles.
"We should have thought of that." Mario says dodging his wife who takes a whack at him.
"Open ours next," Pierce says pulling over a large box.
"Let's see what grandpa Pierce and grandma got you." Brittany says to her daughter.
Stella babbles mentioning doggy and up as she nods. She tears a piece of wrapping paper, laughing when sees a picture of a dog.
"A ride able dog." Santana says nodding.
"Your father was certain that she'd love it." Whitney says.
"Doggy," Stella says hugging the large toy, Brittany pulled out of the box.
"What did you two get her?" Gloria asks glad that Stella seems to like their gift.
"Stella," Santana says taking her hand. "Bounce," is all she says as she shows her in a spare room a bounce house.
"Bounce!" Stella shouts jumping inside.
"Score," Pierce says joining her.
Mario joins them not wanting to be left out.
"We can't let them have all the fun." Whitney says to Gloria and they both join in.
"Come on you four, we can't let our parents out do us." Brittany says dragging the other four in.
The rest of the day is them all bouncing in the bounce house till it was time to eat.
