A/N: Hey guys, so I know that from the past few chapters I have been calling the new back Carter and Connor. His official name is Connor. I have a feeling that the reason it's been confusing for you all is that I only write whenever I have the time to write. So, I really am sorry that I have been confusing you all with the whole 'new baby's name'.
The month was finally over and Tris was able to finally go back home, but, to her dismay, she was put on bed rest by the doctors. Other than the whole bed rest thing, Tris was really happy to be home, so that she doesn't have to be waiting for the kids to get to her.
"Honey, will you pull the covers over?" Tobias asked Natalie when they first get home. Tris had refused to let him carry her, just like Tris would do. Natalie does as she's told, just like the Abnegation in her does. "Thank you very much baby."
"You're welcome daddy," she smiles and moves so that she can actually lay down. Tobias helps her lay down and kiss her forehead.
"Come on sweetie, let's let mommy sleep," Tris stops him.
"No, I want to see my babies," she demands, motioning for Natalie to climb up and onto the big, fluffy bed. Cale and Gray were playing with each other on the floor of the bedroom. "Help them up here and when Connor wakes up, bring him in here."
"Okay, bossy pants," he turns to Natalie, who is snuggling herself into Tris' side, "don't repeat that." He finally helps the twins up and onto the bed.
"You got it dude," she smiles and closes her eyes.
"There ya go," Tobias lifts Cale up first and puts him on the bed next to Tris. "Come here, Gray."
"Momma," he smiles and hugs her by the neck.
"You wanna take a nap with momma?" she asks and he nods. "Let momma lay down then."
"I'm gonna go do some work," Tobias says, kissing all of their foreheads and then walking to his office. Tris slowly falls asleep while she runs her hands through Cale's hair.

"Do you need some help?" Tobias laughs, while he watches Tris struggle really hard to stand from the bed. Normally Tris would never let him help her, but she really is weaker than she normally is. So, she nods and waits for him to get to her. He places a caring hand on her back and pushes her up.
"Thanks," she smiles and walks toward the door that leads to their personal bathroom. Tris opens the door and sees what her husband did to her bath. "Hey, Toby?" he pops his head into the bathroom with his eyebrows raised in question. "Why are there so many bubbles?"
"Well, I thought that you wanted a bubble bath," he pouts.
"Yeah, but I did want the bath and not just the bubble," she says and he makes his ah-ha moment face and smiles, guilty.
"I'm sorry," he tries and Tris just glares at him, pushing him out of the bathroom and closing the door. After her bath, Tris wraps a towel around herself and gets dress. Once she's done and out in the Living Room, Tobias already has some food on the table from the Cafeteria. "Cale go sit in your spot." Tobias tells the small boy and hands him a plate. Cale wobbles over to the end of the couch and, thankfully, makes it without any spills. Tris lies down next to him. "Tris you don't want green beans, right?"
"No," she calls, sitting up next to Cale for Gray to sit down. "You guys want the chair legs up?"
"Mhmmm," Gray nods for his brother. The mother leans over and pulls the latch that triggers the recliner foot rest. They smile and dig into their food. Tobias comes over with a plate of food for her and hands her a knife and fork.
"Natie, what did you do at school today?" she asks, cutting up Cale's chicken into small bites.
"We did drawings and stuff," she answers. Natalie had just now started first grade and was absolutely hating it. She hated the fact that she had to learn things that she was never going to use anyway because she was going to grow up and become a dauntless warrior. At least they know they won't lose their little girl. "I had to count things and stuff. Momma, why do I have to go to school?"
"I don't know honey," she says, sticking some chicken in the barbeque sauce and putting it in her mouth.
"They want you to know anything that you can," Tobias answers as he sits in the big chair across from the couch. The baby monitor goes off and they hear a squeal. "I got it."
"Thank you," she smiles and watches as he jogs towards the nursery. After a while the dad walks back in with a small six month old baby looking around in curiosity.
"Look who decided to wake up," he smiles and Tris holds out her arms for the small boy.
"Hello baby boy, I haven't seen you all day," she says in baby talk. Tobias takes her plate and sets it on the small table in front of her.
"Daddy, I'm done," Natalie announces and hands him the plate as well.
"What am I the plate taker?" he asks. After though, Cale and Gray both hand him their empty plates. Tris stifles her laugh. "Oh, shut up!"
A/N: So, I really hope that you all liked this chapter; I know that the chapters have been pretty boring. But, I really can't think of anything good unless I flash forward over like at least 9 years. It is your guy's call entirely.
