Okay so I hope that everyone likes this. I know some of you probably wont. Please review and let me know either way.

Spencer cradled Sophia she was sleeping soundly. Spencer wished that they were at home instead of in the hospital. She was thankful that they were going home tomorrow. Toby was in the recliner snoring occasionally. He'd spent the day taking pictures and fawning over her and the baby. That is when he wasn't giving orders to her parents about what needed to be done and what needed to go where and what needed to be brought before the baby went home.

"What are you thinking about?" Toby asked as he woke up.

"Just how blessed we are, to be here, to be together, to have 3 beautiful children, to be happy." She said. "Can you take her?"

Toby took her setting her in the plastic crib the hospital supplied her with.

"Can I ask you a question?" He said hesitantly.

"of course" she replied.

"What were you going to do, about the baby?" He asked. She wrinkled her forehead at him.

"You knew that you were pregnant, or you at least had a feeling that you were" he said taking a breath "I mean were you going to tell me or were you just going to show up one day to drop off Sebastian and Lydia and say "guess what there's three of them now"?

Spencer sighed.

"I don't know what I thought I was going to do" she said honestly "I had no proof, all the tests came back negative, my own doctor basically said if I was pregnant I'd know it when I went into labor."

"You should have told me" he said looking away. "What would've happened if I hadn't been there? You could have lost the baby, you could have bled to death on our bathroom floor."

"Well, you were there and I didn't bleed to death on the bathroom floor" she said hoping to put a rest to this line of conversation. She didn't want to think about all the ways it could have gone wrong. She sighed.

"I knew if I told you about the baby…." She started

"If you told me what?" he urged.

"I knew that you would insist we get back together, and I didn't want to get back together just because of the baby"

"Did we get back together because of the baby?" he said wondering aloud.

"No! How can you ask me that? I just told you"

"I know what you said, but you knew you were pregnant, you knew the baby was coming, the accident was the perfect cover to get me back in the house. You knew the whole time you were going to take me back because you were pregnant"

"No! I took you back because you insisted you loved me, you insisted we go to therapy and work it out, because you told me the truth finally about you and Jessica. We got back together because of you" Spencer said angrily.

"Would you have asked me to come stay with you guys after the accident if you hadn't been pregnant" he asked.

"Who cares how it happened the point is we realized what we meant to each other and we made the right decision" Spencer said. "The facts are the facts and that's why we're together."

Toby ran his fingers through his hair.

"Sophia didn't save our marriage, we did" Spencer said. "We only got separated because I thought you were cheating on me and let me tell you, no number of kids would've convinced me to take you back if you'd screwed Jessica"

"However we got here, I'm just glad we did" Toby said kissing her head.

"Me too" she said smiling before she relaxed to try and sleep.

She woke the next morning to her mother opening the blinds and letting the sun in.

"Geez, mom!" Spencer complained.

"Time to go home sweetie" she said setting down all the things Toby had requested. After Spencer had fed the baby and changed into a comfy strapless dress and light sweater she took to the task of changing and dressing Sophia. Veronica had sent Toby on a much needed coffee run. Peter was at home with the kids. Veronica pulled out a shoe box from her collection of things.

"Toby said this was the one you wanted" she said pulling out a familiar white onesie with matching pink pants and hat.

I am tiny and I am

perfect. I am cute and

cuddly.

But most

importantly

I was a dream

come true

Because I am a miracle.

"This was for the other baby" she said sadly. "I miscarried" she said her voice cracking. "I thought he threw that stuff away."

"He didn't throw anything away" she said. "He kept it all, just in case" she said.

As if on cue toby walked in with coffee. Spencer went up to him and kissed him deeply.

"What was that for?" he asked.

"For not giving up on us" she said.

Spencer was excited to get the baby home. She sat in the back seat with her mom and Sophia. Spencer spent the whole ride fussing over the baby. Toby drove extra careful on the way home.

"Mommy! Daddy!" Lydia screamed running towards them.

"Shhh!" Spencer said forcefully but Sophia started crying.

"See? You woke up your sister!" she said.

"I'm sorry mommy" she said sadly.

"That's alright baby, you just need to learn how to deal with a baby in the house."

"The cribs set up in the master bedroom just like you wanted" Peter said smiling.

"Thanks daddy" she said as she took the car seat upstairs to put the baby down.

After the baby was settled, she took a look around the room. She wondered if maybe she and toby should reopen the discussion on moving into a bigger house. She had just started to drift off when she heard Lydia's cries"

"Mommy!" she cried "mama, mama"

Spencer hurried into her room and almost knocked Toby over. It appeared that they were having a standoff of some sort.

"What's the matter?" she asked.

"Daddy's taking my chair! It's mine!" she cried her face already red. The chair in question was the one toby had made for her all those years ago. It had gone in Sebastian's nursery and then Lydia's. It had been in Lydia's room her whole life.

"Honey he's just moving it to our room so we can rock the baby to sleep" Spencer said.

"I explained that to her" Toby said.

"It's mine and I don't want to share it with Sophia!" she said crossing her arms.

"Lydia Joy Cavanaugh!" she said raising her voice.

"But it's mine, I'm a good sharer and ill share with Sophia, but not my chair" she cried "it's mine"

"No its mine!" Spencer said back "Daddy made it for me and I shared it with you and Sebastian, but it's still mine and now I want it back"

"It's mommy's?" she asked toby.

"Yes, I made it for her a long time ago, way before we were married or had babies"

Lydia threw herself on her bed, still crying. "Fine take it back!"

Spencer nodded for Toby to take the chair and then they went back to their room letting Lydia cry out her temper tantrum. They went downstairs where Veronica was making lunch.

"Everything alright?" she asked.

"Oh she's just getting an early start on her middle child syndrome" Spencer said.

"Mom?" Sebastian said coming downstairs a few minutes later. "Lydia's in her room crying that dad doesn't love her anymore because he took her chair away"

"She's being overdramatic" Spencer said.

"She's had it her whole life, dad rocks her in it every night until she goes to sleep, at least he does when he's here, it's obviously important to her" Sebastian said "Can't you just buy Sophia a new chair?"

Spencer thought about this for a minute.

"Give her back her chair Toby" she said finally. "We can get a new one for the baby"

"I think we need a bigger house" Spencer said as they laid down to bed that night.

"Oh yeah?" Toby asked. "How big were you thinking?"

"I'm not sure a 5 or 6 bedroom" she said.

"You thinking we should have more kids?" he asked "Because Sophia already has a turf war going on and she's only a day old."

"Not right away but yeah, I would like to have another baby or two" she said.

"I never realized you wanted to have that many." He said amused.

"I didn't think when we had Lydia that it would be six years before we had another one and well Sebastian and Lydia are so close in age, Sophia is so much younger, when Sophia is six Lydia will be 12 and Sebastian will be 16. They won't exactly want to play dollies and have tea parties."

"So what you're saying is that you want to have another baby in what the next 2 years?" he asked.

"Yeah, is that so bad?"

"No just making sure were on the same page that's all"

*a week later*

"Okay hand over the baby" Mrs. Hastings said jokingly.

"No" spencer said putting her in the car seat "I'm taking her with us"

The Hastings had volunteered to take the kids so spencer and toby could do some much needed grocery shopping. Spencer like any new mom was hesitant to let the baby out of her grasp for even a few hours.

"Spencer you don't need to be bringing a newborn baby with you to the grocery store." Veronica lectured.

"I'm taking her, she's already buckled in" she said as she tucked the blanket around the baby.

"Ok" Veronica said exasperated. Toby had tried to go himself but Spencer insisted that he would either forget things or buy the wrong kind.

Spencer was looking for the kind of cookies that the kids liked when Sophia started to fuss. She picked her up and started rocking her gently.

"It's okay baby, mommy's got you" she cooed.

"Spencer?!" she heard a voice. She turned and there was Jessica.

"Jessica!" she said in the same fake upbeat tone that shed used. She had to admit it gave her a bit of a thrill for Jessica to see her with her and Toby's child. She was extra glad her mom hadn't talked her into leaving the baby at home. Her happiness waned when she saw that Jessica had a sizeable baby bump.

"So are you babysitting?" she asked.

"Nope, she's mine, mine and Toby's, were both over the moon about her" she said.

"Oh that's so wonderful for you, especially after what happened last time" she said. Her heart shattered. Toby had told her about the miscarriage? That was so personal, so private, she hadn't even told her mother for Christ sake. She fought the urge to become a puddle on the floor.

"So, I see you're expecting" she said trying to take the focus off of her.

"Yeah I'm 6 months, what a coincidence we both got pregnant so close together, I mean what are the odds."

Spencer's eyes narrowed at her not really liking what she was insinuating.

"So how are things going with Andrew?" Spencer asked.

"Oh great, we really hit it off and he has really stepped up. We're living together now."

Spencer nodded politely and as if speaking of him conjured him up Andrew walked around the corner.

"There you are" he said "Spencer what a surprise!"

Spencer and Andrew were talking business and Jessica excused herself to go get something.

Spencer couldn't help herself.

"Andrew did Jessica say anything to you about the father?" she asked cautiously.

"Oh you know the age old story, she was hooking up with this guy, and she got pregnant and he promised her the world, said they'd get married, get a house with a white picket fence and all. Then dumps her and goes back to his ex."

"Oh, that sucks" she said trying to hold it together.

"I better go before she buys half the store" he said heading back around the corner. When he was gone the tears started to flow. She held Sophia close as she cried. She barely registered Toby's voice trying to sooth her. She then felt him take Sophia out of her arms.

"Give her back!" she screamed "Give me my baby back!"

DUN DUN DUN! What do you think will happen next?

Until next time my lovelies...
