I groaned and sat up in bed. The nausea was three times as bad with triplets. I ran to the bathroom and got down in front of the toilet just in time to throw up last night's dinner. Then I pulled myself onto my feet and went to get a shower. I pulled off my shirt and examined my growing belly. Alex and I were going to have seven kids. Alex was looking into buying a bigger house. We were definitely going to need it. Addison was concerned because of her age that she would be stuck with twins again. I assured her that if I could handle triplets plus the four kids I already had then she could handle it too. Alex came into the bathroom while I was getting dressed after my shower. He kissed me lightly on the cheek and then kissed my bump.
"Morning babies, morning beautiful." He said and pulled his shirt.
"Morning handsome." I told him and kissed him passionately. He took my shirt off. I ended up taking another shower but not for the same reason as before. After I got dressed and dried my hair I went to wake up the kids. I went to wake up Toby first. He yawned and stretched.
"Morning mommy." He said. I smiled.
"Good morning Tob." Get ready for school." I told him and left his room. I went to wake up Kimberly next. She was buried under her owl covers. I smiled and pulled the covers back. She groaned and pulled them back up.
"No." She said stubbornly.
"Kimberly Ann Karev get up." I told her firmly. She huffed and opened her eyes. Then she sat up and rubbed them sleepily. "Your clothes are on your dresser, brush your teeth and then I will do your hair okay?" I asked. Kimberly nodded. I smiled and left the room. Eventually I got everyone down to the kitchen and eating breakfast. I sighed and plopped down in a chair. I was nowhere near ready to have seven kids.

I met Addison in an exam room on the maternity floor. Mark had a facial reconstruction today and couldn't come with me but he wanted me to find out the sexes if possible. I got to the room a few minutes late. Addison was looking at an ultrasound of three babies in their mother's womb. I wondered who's it was and why she was showing so much interest in the triplets. The door clicked shut behind me and she looked up. She smiled when she saw it was me.
"Who has triplets?" I asked.
"Kallye and me actually. This scan is mine though." Addison told me.
"Oh wow. When did you find out?" I asked.
"Five minutes ago." She told me and x-ed out of the image. "Come on lay down. Do you want to know the sex?" She asked and squirted the gel onto my stomach. She moved the wand around until two strong heartbeats could be heard.
"Do they look good?" I asked.
"Two very healthy babies. A boy and a girl." Addison told me smiling. I smiled. I couldn't wait until they were here. Of course they still had a ton of growing left to do. I didn't want them to come now. They probably wouldn't make it. Take that back. I know they wouldn't make it at sixteen weeks. Addison ran labs and several other tests. They all came back good. Afterwards I met Mark for lunch. He joined me at the lunch table when I was halfway through my ham and salsa sub.
"Cal what on Earth are you eating?" Mark asked.
"It's a salsa and ham sub. Don't judge, they make me crave the weirdest things." I said. Mark chuckled.
"So what are they?" He asked.
"Boy and a girl." I told him smiling. He grinned.
"Seriously?" He asked. I nodded.

Jackson met me in the cafeteria with Lucas. We liked to take Lucas out of day care for lunch every day. The triplets were in Kindergarden. Lucas was enjoying a happy meal from McDonald's, while Jackson indulged in a Big Mac. I smiled and sat down next to Lucas. Jackson handed me a McDonald's salad. I smiled and started to eat.
"How's day care Luke?" I asked.
"Good mommy." He said with his mouth full of French fries.
"Don't talk with your mouth full Lucas." I scolded. Lucas swallowed.
"Yes mommy." He said, his mouth wasn't full this time.
"That's better." I told him.
"Andrew's appointment is at two right?" Jackson asked.
"Yes, I'll take him." I told him. Jackson nodded.
"And I'll pick up the rest of the kids from school when I get off." Jackson said. Lucas dunked a fry in Jackson's mustard and took a bite. He had never tried mustard before. Jackson and I were lost in conversation when we heard Lucas start wheezing. He was having an allergic reaction. We got him to the ER as fast as we could and Alex gave him a shot of steroids and put him on oxygen because his airway had started to close and was in the process of slowly reopening with the help of the steroids. After a while with the help of some medication Lucas fell asleep. Alex came into his room a few minutes later.
"He's highly allergic to mustard Apes." Alex told me. I nodded. "Jackson told me to tell you to go ahead and take Andrew to his appointment and the drop him off in his office and he'll take care of all the kids tonight so you can stay with Lucas, because we do need to keep him over night." Alex explained. I nodded. I kissed Lucas on the forehead and he shifted in his sleep. Then I left the room. I picked up Andrew from Kindergarden and took him to his orthopedic doctor. He'd been in a cast for four weeks now and he was beyond ready to get it off. Even if it was still healing on track he had at least two more weeks in it. Once we got to the doctor's office Andrew pitched a fit. I finally resorted to bribing him with ice cream and he finally went inside.
