Chapter 3: The Big Plan.
This morning I have my first ultrasound, Derek can't wait to hear the little heartbeat. I remember the first time I heard Bailey's little heartbeat, at first I thought I was going to lose him as I was told that I couldn't have any natural children. "Good afternoon Dr. Grey were ready for you and your husband" said an OBGYN. I wasn't ready for the appointment as I just found out about this baby. "Come on Meredith" Derek said. After I got settled onto the little table the ultrasound began.
"Well everything looks great their heartbeats are strong" said the OBGYN. "Their heartbeats" Meredith said. "Yes Dr. Grey you're having twins "said the doctor. Both Derek and I were shocked to find out we were having twins. "Meredith you know we should go on a family vacation with Zola, and Bailey before we have the twins" Derek explained. I thought it was a great idea because the last family vacation we had was when we went to New York to see Caroline when Zola was a baby. It has been about 4 years since we had our last family trip.
After the appointment we went back home to Amelia who had stayed home sick with the kids because she was vomiting and wasn't feeling well. "So Meredith how was your appointment" asked Amelia. "It was great we found out that we are having twins" Meredith said excitedly. "Twins wow that's exciting excuse me I'll be back "said a severely sick Amelia. After Amelia returned from the bathroom I explained to her that we wanted to take a family vacation. Amelia thought it was a great idea, and asked if she could come. Both Derek and I agreed that Amelia could come, as it could help both Derek and myself if we want some privacy.
The next thing I remember is Derek packing the children's clothing, a sickly Amelia packing her clothes. While I sat in the living room trying to call Christina and tell her the news about how I'm pregnant and expecting twins. Later that night at dinner Derek told both Amelia and myself that he bought some tickets to Disney World in Orlando Florida. I have never been to Florida so I'm looking forward to it. Amelia was excited to go as the last time she went was when both Derek, and Amelia's father was alive.
It was about 5:00 am and the alarm went off and I got Zola up while Derek got Bailey up. After I got Zola up Amelia who was feeling better made some coffee for herself and Derek. After everyone had their coffee we headed to the airport. The children were excited to go on their first trip to Disney. I was even looking forward to going because I never have never been. The trip to the airport felt like it was an hour long when it was actually 15 minutes from our house. I was kind of nervous for Bailey as he has never been on an airplane before. I sometimes have a hard time getting on a plane ever since the crash. I'm always afraid that the plane will go down and I'll be stuck out in the woods looking for Derek like I did for the crash.
