A couple of months later and it was the day of Haley's 1st birthday.

Harry and Shay were busy decorating the kitchen before the birthday girl woke up.

"This time last year Sweet Pea." Harry cooed. He was reaching up to pin the decorations to the wall. Being so tall he didn't need a stool. Shay on the other hand was standing cautiously on a stool.

"This time last year I was in excruciating pain which I'd rather not remember. Which thankfully, my body actually forgets about the pain. But hey... I got a beautiful, crazy little girl out of it."

"She really is such a beautiful little thing. So if you don't remember the pain does that mean we can have another one?" Harry replied proudly. He looked over at his wife and winked.

Shay stopped what she was doing to smile back.

"Am I really going to put myself through that again for you? Alright then."

Harry smiled. One of his best smiles that made Shay's insides turn to jelly.

He'd finished pinning the decs just in time to stop Shay from falling off the chair.

"Woah. Steady on. You okay?" Harry tried to hide his chuckles.

"I'm fine. Might not be having any more kids if this carries on. Why am I risking my life up here when my husband is ridiculously tall and could do all this for me huh?" Shay teased as Harry helped her down.

"Because you're bossy and wouldn't let me do everything anyway." Harry wrapped his arms around Shay as they looked on at the progress they'd made.

They had set up a wooden table with lots of snacks and nibbles, including some cute little cupcakes and biscuits

They had set up a wooden table with lots of snacks and nibbles, including some cute little cupcakes and biscuits.

The table was decorated with cute rustic boxes for the cakes to sit on. One cake was gluten and dairy free for those that couldn't eat the main cake.

There were also lots of beautiful peach flowers. Peach being Haley's favourite colour. Which Harry and Shay had learnt. Anything peach coloured Haley went mad for.

They'd also set up some crochet hangings which one of Shay's best friends (Lu) had made. The whole area looked ridiculously cute.

"We did good." Harry spoke into Shay's ear as he held her to his chest.

As Shay looked at the decorations her eyes started to gloss over. The fact her little girl was turning one was emotional.

"Mmhmm." She mumbled trying to hold in the tears.

"Aww are you crying Sweet Pea?" Harry whispered now. Holding her tighter.
