April and Jackson were getting ready for the Christmas party that Meredith and Derek were having at their house. April was wearing a red strapless dress with some gold high heel shoes. April finished doing her hair and went into Emmy's room to get her ready. Jackson was in the bedroom getting dressed. April picked up Emmy out of her crib and carried her over to the changing table. April undressed her and changed her diaper. "You're going to look so pretty in this dress." April smiled and grabbed the dress that her Mom had made for her out of the closet. She grabbed some white tights out of the top drawer of her dresser and brought her back over to the changing table. April laid her down again and put her tights on her. She put a white long sleeve onesie on her and snapped it over the tights. She sat her up and put the dress on her. "So cute." April smiled and kissed her cheek. Emmy cooed and smiled at her. April pulled the dress down and picked her up. She grabbed her black patten leather shoes from off the changing table and carried her into the bedroom.

"What do you think Daddy?" Jackson smiled when he saw them.

"Beautiful just like Mommy." April handed him her shoes and held her out so he could put them on her. Jackson slid the shoes on her feet and snapped them on.

"We're ready when you are." April smiled.

"I just need to put on my shoes." Jackson walked over to the closet and grabbed his shoes then sat down on the bed and put them on. April carried Emmy into the living room and strapped her into her car seat. Jackson came out of the bedroom and walked over and put on his coat and grabbed the keys. April put her coat on and picked up Emmy's carrier. Jackson wrapped his arm around her and gave her a kiss. "Let's go party."

April laughed and headed out the door.

Jackson knocked on the door of Meredith and Derek's house. Meredith opened the door with a smile. "Hey. Come on in."

"Hi." April smiled and gave her a hug.

"Hey." Jackson smiled and walked inside with Emmy.

"Hi, Emmy." Meredith smiled at her. Emmy smiled as she sucked her pacifier. "Let me take your coats for you."

"Oh thank you." April took her coat off and handed it to Meredith then took Emmy's carrier from Jackson so he could take his coat off. April put the carrier down on a chair and took Emmy out. She fixed her dress and moved the carrier out of the way. Emmy laid her head on April's shoulder. Jo and Alex came walking over.

"Oh…she's getting so big." Jo gushed.

April smiled. "Hey guys."

"Hey." Alex sipped on his drink.

"Hey cutie pie." Jo smiled at Emmy and stroked her cheek. Emmy cooed and smiled. April laughed and rubbed her back. "Can I hold her?"

"Sure." April passed her over.

"Oh my God. She's so adorable."

April smiled.

"Don't get any ideas." Alex said as he made a silly face at Emmy.

"Babe you want something to drink?" Jackson put his hand on her back.

"Yeah that would be great." Jackson went to go get her a drink. Callie and Arizona came walking over.

"Hey."

"Oh hey!" April smiled and hugged them both.

"Is that the dress your Mom made for her?"

"Yeah."

"It's adorable."

"I want a turn when you're done." Callie said to Jo. Jo smiled and kissed Emmy and rubbed her back. Emmy smiled and moved around excitedly. Jackson came walking back over with a drink for her.

"Here you go Babe."

"Thank you." April took it.

"It's non alcoholic." April took a sip.

Jo walked over and passed Emmy to Callie. "Hey, Sweet Girl." Callie smiled and straightened her dress. Emmy started drooling. Callie smiled and kissed her cheek.

"So what are you getting April for Christmas?" Arizona asked Jackson. They were standing in the corner of the room talking. April was sitting on the couch with Emmy talking with Meredith.

"Um…I'm flying in her parents. She has no idea. She thinks they're going to her sister's house."

"Wow Jackson….That's probably the best gift you could give her."

"I know she really wants to see her Mom. She Facetimes with them all the time but it only makes her sadder."

"She's going to love it."

"I really hope so." Jackson took a sip of his drink. "Do you think they could stay with you for a night? They're coming in tomorrow night and I want to wait until Christmas day to have them come over."

"Yeah sure. That would be fine."

"Okay. I'm not sure what time they're coming in. I'm going to call them tomorrow and then I'll let you know."

"Sounds great." Arizona smiled. "April is lucky to have you."

"I'm the lucky one." Jackson smiled and looked over at April.

April laughed at something Meredith said. Owen walked over to Meredith and April to say hi.

"Chief! Hi."

"Hi." Owen smiled.

"Glad you could make it."

"Thanks for having me." Owen smiled at Emmy. "She's getting big."

"I know." April rubbed Emmy's belly. "Emmy look who it is." Emmy smiled. "You want to go see the Chief?" April stood up and he walked over to her. April gave her a kiss and passed her over to him. He laid her in his arms and smiled down at her. Derek came walking over.

"Can I get you something to drink?" He asked Owen.

"Yeah sure, Thank you."

"What would you like? Scotch? Gin?"

"I'm on call."

"Okay…I'll find something for you."

Emmy looked up at Owen and smiled. She reached up and touched his face. Owen smiled and rubbed her belly.

"She really likes you Chief."

"It looks like it."

Jackson walked over and wrapped his arm around April's waist. She turned and smiled. "Hey."

"Hey, Babe." He leaned in and kissed her. "Just coming to check on my girls."

"We're doing great." April rested her head on him.

"You're going to have trouble with this one when she's older." Owen said bouncing Emmy.

"Oh I know."

Emmy looked at Jackson. Jackson leaned in and tickled her chest. Derek came walking over with Owen's drink.

"Here you go."

"Oh, thanks." Owen took his glass.

"Come here, Sweetheart." April took Emmy from Owen.

"I should go make my rounds." Owen said before leaving. Emmy laid her head on her April's shoulder.

"She's getting sleepy." Jackson rubbed her back and gave her a kiss.

"I should give her a bottle."

"Okay, Babe."
