It's now two days before Christmas and everyone is back at Kara and Lena's. They've even managed to buy some things for Jeremiah for Christmas too after leaving the hospital. Currently Jeremiah is asleep in the swing that Lori used to use while Lori and Alura are busy with Eliza making reindeer food and cookies for Santa. This leaves the four women to sit on the sofa and relax. "So how are you feeling?" Lena asked. "Like I've been through a hurricane." Sam said. "That's one way to put it..." Alex said as she looked at her broken hand. "I'm sorry for breaking your hand.." Sam replied softly. "It's all good. I got this cool pink cast and it's not every day that I get to say 'my wife broke my hand while giving birth to our son." Alex added. "Don't forget, it'll make a great story to tell him in the future." Kara chimed in.

Sam was about to tell Kara off but she shook here head before responding. "I should tell you to stuff it..but thats a good way to embarrass him one day." Sam said. Everyone laughed at that statement before sipping their drinks. "So..you two are pregnant now huh?" Alex asked. "Yep! Baby number three is on his or her way." Kara replied as she rubbed her abdomen. "How did you two manage to keep Lena from getting pregnant?" Sam asked. "Birth control chips. I put mine on and Kara didn't....we tried it out and Kara's pregnant." Lena said. "Genius!" Alex said with a smile on her face.

"So what are you hoping for? Boy? Girl? Twins?" Sam asked. "Honestly we don't care, as long as they're healthy." Lena said. "Well I've got ten bucks that says it's twin boys." Alex said. "I got ten bucks that says its twin girls!" Sam said. Kara and Lena shared a look before placing their own ten dollars down and making bets.
