Hey everyone! Thank you for the alerts, favs, and alerts! I appreciate every one of you for reading this fic and sticking with it. I'm glad I got this one up a lot quicker than I have these past few months. It's harder for me to update every day like I used to last year when I first started this series due to the fact my dad's home all the time now and my family are I are always going out once a day. Hopefully since I'm updating more often I'll get a few more reviews than I've been getting lately.

I don't own Glee. The only characters I own are Cory Hudson and Anthony Hudson.

Enjoy!

"I'm sure he's fine, Rachel. The pediatrician at the hospital even said for himself that Anthony was going to be okay," Finn said as he carried the carrier containing his son in it.

"I know, but he probably doesn't want to be poked at by foreign fingers," she said while taking a seat in the doctor's office. Cory was staying with Burt and Carole's while they took Anthony to the doctor. Since she knew they'd have to weigh him and such, she only dressed him in a heavy coat for the fierce winter and a pair of pajama pants. While Finn filled out some paper work, she kept a nice blanket to cover his carrier so he wouldn't get sick. Once all the paper work was filled out it was now time to play the waiting game.

"So...Quinn and Puck are coming over to see Anthony later, right?"

"And the current glee club is coming to visit too. I heard they want to talk to you about Regionals too, despite that Mr. Schue is back," Rachel usually texted Tina every day for updates about the glee club, and that was one of them. "Tina told me that Marley is going to write a song for Regionals."

"That's good. I remember when you wrote Get it Right, and that was awesome," Finn complimented.

"And Pretending was amazing too," that was all she said, remembering what happened after they sang their duet. It was best not to mention he proposed to her at that moment, since now they were starting to date again after a nasty break up too.

"Anthony Hudson?" a nurse peered outside of the door to call them in. They followed her into a little room that was sometimes considered the smaller waiting room. The nurse told them the doctor would be with them shortly, since they tended to babies much faster than other children.

"Well, now we wait once again," Finn said while staring at Anthony. "That first appointment was so much fun with Cory."

"Yeah, him screaming while the doctor looked over him was great, wasn't it?" Rachel laughed. While they continued to look at their son Dr. Croxton arrived in five short minutes.

"Good morning Mr. Hudson and Ms. Berry," he greeted with a smile. "How are the two of you today on this fine December day?"

"We're doing alright, yourself?"

"Besides the cold, I'm doing okay. Let me see Baby Anthony," she handed the doctor her newborn and he was placed on a scale for his weight to be measured. A small measuring tape was lifted from his pocket and was strung out right beside him to measure him. "Good and good. How's your other son, Cory doing?"

"He's doing great. He's adjusting to Anthony well, except if he cries during the night Cory isn't too happy," the brunette knew her oldest would have to deal with the crying anyways, because he knew it wasn't going to stop any time soon.

"And how was your pregnancy with Anthony?" Finn was looking off into the distance since he knew all the questions Dr. Croxton was asking he wouldn't be able to answer. Despite the fact they had two kids he was technically only around for one pregnancy.

"Just like a last one, except I was a little bigger even for his size. I delivered him at 37, almost 38 weeks," she explained while watching him examine the newborn.

"Well, everything looks good here. He's doing alright for being a few weeks early. I'd like to see you back in a month. Happy holidays to the both of you," and he left the room by closing the door quietly. Rachel redressed Anthony before they left the room to pay the doctor. It wasn't much of a wait since it was still early and not many people were there. When Anthony was officially back in his car seat and both parents were settled in the car, they both let out a sigh of relief.

"I'm glad that appointment is over with," Rachel watched the road and Finn drove them over to his mom's house. She already knew Anthony wasn't going to be ready for what was in store for him in the next few hours.

-more-than-words-

"How's New Haven, Quinn?" Finn asked the blonde while Rachel went to go get everyone drinks.

"And how's L.A Noah?" Rachel popped out of the kitchen to hand everyone their drink.

"New Haven and Yale are great. I'm majoring in English since I decided to become a real estate agent. Helping people pick out that place they want to live sounds fun," Quinn smiled after she took a sip of water.

"L.A's cool too. I've started working on this script about aliens, so maybe Spielberg will want to turn it into a movie one day," it was funny when Quinn snickered, but shut her mouth once he looked right back at her.

"Have you guys seen Beth?" Finn asked, but Rachel slapped his arm harshly when he asked that. It didn't seem like the right question to ask, mostly when the last time they saw each other was in June.

"Finn," the petite girl growled under her breath.

"No no, it's okay. We're not afraid to talk about Beth," Quinn admitted. "The Tishler's call me once a month to give us an update on her since they both know we're in different states. I have yet to hear from them this month, however."

The silence in the air started to grow once she finished talking. Thankfully it was put to an end when the doorbell rung, indicating the glee club was here. Finn and Rachel rushed to the door to welcome the new arrivals.

"Welcome!" the shouted together, letting everyone in. They couldn't provide everyone a place to sit, so most of them sat on the floor. Rachel said hello to everyone before strolling into Anthony's room to go get him.

"Lots of people are going to be holding you today, Tiny Tony. They're all friends though, so don't be afraid," she whispered to her son before giving him a kiss on the forehead and walked out of his nursery. When she returned everyone was cooing and in awe over the newborn. "Everyone, meet Anthony Michael Hudson."

"What a cutie!" Tina praised once she held him in her arms. Everyone got to hold him once before he made his way back to Rachel, who was happy to hold him once again. The young adults started to talk about what they were doing over winter break, and the seniors of high school talked about what their plans were in college.

"What was it you guys wanted to ask me about Regionals?" Finn asked the glee kids.

"Well, we were wondering if you could help coach us along with Mr. Schue since you did a great job at Sectionals," Sam started to explain.

"And if you're not busy or anything, we'd love your help. You're a great teacher." Marley added.

Finn turned to Rachel, knowing he'd have to get her approval before making any huge decisions. "What do you think?"

"Go for it. You'll be teaching in an actual school before you know it, so why not get some experience now?"

"Alright, I'll do it. We're going to win Regionals and win Nationals in L.A.!" he cheered, and so did everyone else. He was going to lead the glee club to another victory at Nationals.

Coming up in chapter 32: Another Christmas chapter! And one of the characters get some bad news. What do you think it is? Put what you think in your review!
