It's been three years and my baby girl is three! Rose is five and Lizzie and I are thirty. It's crazy!

"Mommy" "Malia" I copy cooking eggs on the stove "is breakfast ready?' "not yet sweetheart. Do you want to go and tell mama?' she nods and runs down the hall. The way she runs is so cute, she sounds like a penguin. "Rey. Leia" I pour their food into their bowls and they both eat it all "good girls" I stroke their heads and wash my hands. "Malia! Breakfast" I call up the stairs and go back into the kitchen to serve up breakfast. Lizzie sits down at the table with Malia and puts her on the chair next to her "good morning baby" she smiles "morning" Malia always wakes me up first before Lizzie which is annoying.

We eat breakfast and then tidy away whilst Malia plays with her toys. I kiss my wife's cheek making her shoulders rise "Lizzie" I giggle and put the dishwasher on "what? You tickled me" I roll my eyes and lean into her "Scarlett will be here soon with Rose" I quickly wipe down the surface and hand Lizzie the sponge "I need to get changed" I run up the stairs and into our bedroom. "Mommy!" Malia calls "I'm getting dressed honey, mamas down there!". I get ready for Scarlett and then go back downstairs "what do you think?" "Pretty" I smile and pick her up "thank you, you look pretty too" I kiss her cheek.

Lizzie and I sit on the sofa and watch Malia play with her toys on the floor. "I want another one" "another what?' I smile and put my hand on her chest " a C H I LD" I spell. Lizzie kisses my cheek "like right now?" I nod a rest my cheek on her shoulder "yeah. We always wanted more than one and Malias getting older. We certainly aren't getting any younger babe and it might not work the first time" "okay. We can talk about it this evening if you want" "yes, I'd like that".

The doorbell rings and Malia looks at me and Lizzie with wide eyes "that's Rose. Do you want to come and open the door with me?' she nods and jumps up from the floor "come on you old sausage" I help Lizzie up from the sofa "I don't need help honey, I can get up on my own" she says following me to the front door. "Move out the way bubba, you don't want to get squished" Lizzie moves Malia out the way so I can open the door. "Auntie Y/n!" Rose squeals and hugs me tightly "hey Rosie" I hug her back "Malia! Auntie Lizzie!" She lets go of me and sees Malia. Scarlett hugs me tightly and pulls away "hi" "hey. Do you want to come in aswell? There's cake" Scarlett nods hearing the word cake and comes inside. I close the door behind her and put my hands in my back pocket "Malia Grace Olsen, where are you?" Scarlett asks looking around "I'm here. I'm here!" I laugh hearing Malias high pitch voice. "Oh! There you are" Scarlett picks her up and kisses her cheek "I missed you little princess. Has mommy and mama been nice?" "Oh!" I growl "yes!" Malia giggles and hugs Scarlett. Leia and Rey lick Rose making her giggle "Leia" I laugh and gently push her away from roses face.

The girls play in the lounge whilst Lizzie makes the drinks "you guys seem happy" Scarlett smiles, I look at Lizzie and shrug "oh, I don't know why that is" I tell her and hand her a coffee "cut the BS" Lizzie laughs and hands me my coffee "y/n wants another baby" I glare at my wife "hey, that was supposed to be our secret'. "No surprise there. You've wanted another baby since the day Malia was born" I nod in agreement "true but I think now we might actually try". I take a sip of my coffee and open the back door for the dogs "what about you and Colin? Are you going to get married?" "Maybe. I'm not telling". "Mama can we have magic sand?" Malia asks with Rose standing behind her "not inside but you can play with it outside" "but it's cold outside" Rose adds "oh you little devils. Come on, let's get coats on' Lizzie says and takes them to the hall. I sit down on a stall and tie my hair back into a bun "I want another kid so so bad" "it's going to take at least ten months" Scarlett says "I know. We should have started it sooner but we didn't think about it" I share and watch the girls run outside in their winter gear. "Malia was sick for a while and Lizzie had work. I thought Malia was going to die Scar and I couldn't try for another baby if that was going to happen". Lizzie joins us again and kisses my cheek "what are you talking about?' "why we didn't try for another baby sooner. It didn't really come to our minds when Malia had Pneumonia and you had work did it?" Lizzie shakes her head and holds my hand "well you've got alot of time before your fifty. I'm sure you can have a couple more baby's in that time".
