A/N: I know this is a really short update but I feel like this part belongs by itself and nothing else. Thank you again for all the reviews, for adding me to your story alerts and to your favorite stories you guys are amazing and the best. love ya.

I just wanted to add the ages here so no one gets confused later on.

Ages: Elliot- 26, Olivia-24, Maureen-7, Katie-5, Dickie & Lizzie- 11 months. The twins will be turning one, in two weeks. This chapter is the first week of November give or take a few days since last chapter was the end of October with Halloween and all. I think I'm going to try and post dates and or months with each chapter from now on I find it kind of more helpful to follow along time wise. Anyway I hope you all keep reading and enjoying my fics.

It had been a week since Dickie took his first steps and since Elliot and Olivia had sex for the second and third time. Elliot had already had two dates with Meghan the pizzeria owner, they seemed to be hitting it off. Even though Elliot was really into Meghan he couldn't seem but to be jealous that Olivia was going out for dinner and drinks at a local bar with their ADA's Alex Cabot and Casey Novak.

When he had seen her walk out of the bedroom in the tight little number that hugged all her curves in all the right places and those pumps that made her legs seem like they went on for miles he almost lost it. She would pay for it tonight, he thought to himself that was is if she came home. He shook the thought from his mind as the door bell rang. It was Meghan, they were going on their third date and they were taking the kids to the aquarium. Mo had been begging him since they had gotten home last Saturday from the aquarium.

The kids were less than thrilled that Meghan would be joining them instead of Olivia and they weren't afraid to let that show. They left the aquarium an hour later without the girls protesting in fact they were practically begging to leave. The whole hour they were there they spent complaining that Meghan didn't do the fish voices right or the shark jokes like their Livvy did.

They decided to stop at Carvel and pick up ice cream to go with the movie Elliot had rented earlier in the day incase the aquarium bombed. Which of course it had. Meghan stayed in the car with the twins while Elliot went into the ice cream shop with the girls. They insisted on getting Olivia ice cream so she wouldn't be left out even though she wasn't home. But Elliot couldn't say no to his girls.

A half an hour after they got home Olivia came walking through the door.

"Livvy, you're home!" The girls screamed as they ran into the living room to hug her.

"Hi girls."

"We got you ice cream, come on" Katie said dragging Olivia into the kitchen; tripping along the way in her pumps.

Noticing the extra ice cream container Olivia said,

"Did you plan on leaving my ice cream out to melt?"

"No that's Meg's," Elliot said.

"Oh my bad, I didn't realize she was still here."

A few seconds later Meghan returned to the kitchen. Olivia stood awkwardly not knowing what to say. Just then Lizzie reached for Olivia so she picked her up sure enough so was wet, which gave her the perfect excuse.

"Oh Lizzie sweetie what am I going to do with you? You are all wet, let's go change you. I'll bring her right back."

Elliot was happy that things were finally starting to look up between Meghan and his children. They finally seemed more comfortable talking and they were really getting to know each other over the ice cream.

"Meghan, can we have your cherries?" Katie asked.

"Oh, I'm sorry sweetie I already ate them. I didn't know you liked them."

"Livvy always gives us her cherries," Katie replied sadly.

"I'm sorry, I really didn't know."

"Meg, it's fine; you girls will live without eating some extra cherries it won't kill you."

Olivia changed Lizzie then brought the baby into her room so she could change. She brought the baby back ten minutes later and sat her with everyone on the couch where they had moved to while she was changing. She grabbed her ice cream out of the freezer, took the lid off placed it on the container grabbed a spoon and headed for her bedroom. On the way to her bedroom she stopped and gave one of her cherries to Mo and another to Katie.

"Here girls, a cherry for each of you as always."

"Thank you Livvy, we love you. Will you watch the movie with us?"

"Not this time girls, I have to call Aunt Casey and make sure she's okay. Watch the movie with Daddy and Meghan."

An hour had passed and Olivia had run out of things to do in her room. She paints her nails and toe nails, cleaned out her makeup supply, texted everyone she knew to go out and do something unfortunately everyone was busy. So when she heard Dickie crying she was filled with relief.

Olivia walked out into the living room to find Meghan holding Dickie and not quite sure what to do.

"Here I'll take him for ya, he's teething. Where's El?"

"He went to the bathroom; Dickie started crying right after that."

"I'm going to take him into the nursery, to try and get him down for the night just let El know. I'll come back for Lizzie once I get him down."

"Thank you."

"It's no problem I love these kids like my own."

That is when Meghan really started to worry about her future with Elliot. She wasn't so worried that she hadn't gotten along with the older girls yet, but not being able to get Dickie to stop crying and then having to have his partner who was obviously very close with his children take over, didn't look so good for her. But there was no way she was going to give up yet because Elliot Stabler was everything she ever wanted in a main and to top it off he was an amazing father; she couldn't wait until she was their new stepmother.
