"Quinn Evans?"
Quinn heard the doctor call her name and went into the office with Sam. Today they would be finding out the gender of the baby, meaning that the kids could narrow down the field of names to one gender. Her mind flashed back to when they found out the genders of Adam and Molly and she and Sam were debating what to name them.
"Here's a list of all the cheerleading stars," Quinn had told Sam. "You can tell me which names you like." She handed him the list she'd created years ago.
"Okay," Sam said, beginning to go through the list. "I'm going to make this easy on us and get rid of all the names that sound like an old lady and all the ones that are just weird."
Quinn sighed. "I guess that means we are not naming our children after any of the long time legends."
"No," Sam told her flat out. "I am not naming our daughter Lauren. Or Jill or Sandra or Hilarie... And we are not naming our son after any of these guys."
"Well, what names do YOU have in mind?" Quinn asked.
"I was thinking of naming our son after some famous athlete, like Michael or Jim or Henry..." Sam began. "And our daughter, let's see, there's..."
"Well, if we can't name them after cheerleading stars, then we can't name them after athletes either," Quinn snapped.
Sam groaned. "Fine. Let's just get out the baby name book."
"I was hoping we wouldn't have to revert to this," Quinn sighed as she got out the book. "Let's just look at the top 100 list first."
They looked at the list before Quinn turned to Sam.
"See any names you like?"
Sam nodded. "Yeah, I like lots of these. Do you have any favorites?"
"Well, for a boy, I like Adam," Sam said. "What do you think of that?"
"I like that," Quinn said. She looked at the girls list. "How about Molly for our daughter?"
"That's a pretty name," Sam said. "What about Grace for her middle name? Molly Grace Evans has a nice sound."
"I like that," Quinn said. "What should Adam's middle name be?"
"You pick, I picked his first name and Molly's middle name," Sam said.
Quinn looked at the list. "What about Nicholas? I like the idea of Adam Nicholas Evans."
"Adam Nicholas Evans and Molly Grace Evans," Sam said. "Those names sound perfect."
"Perfect," Quinn agreed.
That April, Adam Nicholas Evans and Molly Grace Evans made their debut. Now, they were already in seventh grade.
"You okay?" Sam asked, noticing Quinn looked dazed. "Hormones?"
"Just remembering when we were in this situation for the first time more than 12 years ago," Quinn giggled. "I can't believe how fast our kids are growing up. I know I say that a lot, but in six short years, we'll be sending Adam and Molly to college."
"DON'T TALK THAT WAY," Sam demanded. "I don't want to think about that!"
They made their way into the obstetrician's office. Quinn took a seat at the table as the sonogram appeared. There was their little boy or girl.
"This is our seventh one," Sam told the obstetrician. It wasn't their usual one.
"What do you have already?" the obstetrician asked.
"Two boys and four girls," Quinn said, deciding to leave their history out. She still felt bad that this was the second kid Olivia wouldn't get to meet.
"Want to know what this one is?" the obstetrician asked.
Sam and Quinn smiled at each other. "Yes," Sam said.
"This one's a girl," the obstetrician told them. "And it looks like she's thriving."
"The girls will be happy about that," Quinn giggled. She looked down at her stomach. The baby bump was becoming more noticeable.
"Are the other kids excited?" the obstetrician asked.
"Very," Quinn said.
"How old are they?" the doctor asked.
Quinn looked at Sam, unsure how to answer. Luckily, Sam took over. "We have two twelve year olds, a ten year old, an eight year old, a five year old and a two year old." It was true, Olivia had been five.
"Quite a family," the doctor said.
"We couldn't be happier with them," Sam said, hugging Quinn.
