Hi Everyone! I felt very motivated to write with four reviews! So here we are skipping ahead to Christmas!
Meredith finished putting the last ornament on the tree. Ava who is now seven months old and crawling was crawling around, pulling at the ornaments at the bottom of the tree.
"There we go. Now all we have to wait for is Daddy to get the lights from the garage." said Meredith to Ava.
Ava made gurgling noises and took off again, heading to the front door where Derek had just walked in with the lights. Derek picked her up and kissed her before putting her back down and bringing the lights to the. It took both him and Meredith a few minutes to put up the lights do to Ava constantly interruption, but when it was done t looked beautiful.
"It looks really nice Derek." said Meredith as Derek put his arms around her.
"Yeah considering Christmas Eve is tomorrow it does look nice." commented Derek
Meredith smiled and then bent down to pick up Ava.
"You missy miss need a bath." said Meredith while tickling Ava. "Do you want to help me give her a bath?" asked Meredith to Derek.
"Yes I would like to help." said Derek.
They started off towards the bathroom and when they got there Meredith stripped Ava of her clothes and started to fill up the tub with warm water. She then placed Ava in the tub and handed her a duck and while Derek washed her hair, Meredith went to go get clean pajamas and a fresh diaper. Derek drained the tub after he was done and pulled Ava out wrapping her in a towel. Meredith then took over by diapering her and getting her into a pair of snowman pajamas.
"There we go. All nice and clean and ready for bed." Meredith said to Ava as she started to get fussy.
"Here let me take her." said Derek reaching his arms out and taking her.
"Alright I'm just going to get ready for bed and then I'll meet you in the nursery. There's a bottle in the nursery. Just try and see if she takes it." said Meredith as she walked towards the master bedroom.
Derek walked into the nursery and sat down in the rocking chair and started feeding Ava. Ava looked up at him with her big blue eyes and smiled behind the bottle. Derek smiled and started burping her when she wouldn't take the bottle anymore. He sat there just bouncing her up and down and laughing with her. Meredith walked into the room to find this adorable scene unfolding and slowly walked into the room and interrupted them halfheartedly.
"Okay Miss Ava, it's time for bed." said Meredith
As if Ava understood what she was saying, she started crying.
"Ava, don't cry Santa might me watching you." said Derek kidding.
Meredith laughed and continued bouncing her lightly in her arms until she fell asleep.
"Merry Almost Christmas Mer." said Derek
"Merry Almost Christmas.
