The next morning, Jessica throws on a pair of leggings and a pregnancy shirt that says, "All I wanted was a back rub"
"You look cute!" Danny says to her.
"Thanks!" She says putting her hands under her belly and making a painful face.
"You okay?"
"Yeah, he just so heavy!  He's weighing down on me." She pouts.
"Awe poor baby." He kisses her then rubs her belly and says, "Hi baby!  It's daddy!" He starts to kick and Jessica laughs.
"He's up!" She says.

On the way to Sarah and Evans they stop to pick up some donuts.

Meanwhile at Sarah and Evans.

"Gabriella let me do your hair so that you look nice and pretty when your mommy and daddy get here." Gabriella runs to Sarah and she picks her up then takes her to the bathroom.

She sits her on the sink and pulls her hair into a bun and of course puts a bow on her.
"Ah!" Gabriella looks into the mirror.
"What baby?"
"I look so beautiful!" She smiles at herself and touches the mirror.
"Yes, you do look beautiful!" Sarah laughs.

She puts a pair of leggings on her and a shirt that says, "Future Big Sister"
"Oh so gorgeous!" Sarah smiles at her and gives her a kiss.

Danny knocks on the door and Evan goes to answer it.
"Hey guys!"
"Hi Evan!  Thank you so much for watching our little handful last night!" Jessica hugs him.
"Oh it was no problem!  She's a little firecracker now, isn't she?"
"Hah!  She sure is!" Danny says.
"Here, we brought donuts!" Danny puts them on the table.
"Awesome, thanks!"
"So where is my baby?" Jessica says grabbing a donut.
"Here I am mommy!" Gabriella says coming down the stairs, with Sarah's help of course.
"Hi baby!" Jessica smiles.
Gabriella runs to hug her, "Oh I missed you so much, were you a good girl?"
"Ummm.." Gabriella looks around because even she knows she was acting up.  She gives Jessica her cute little giggle, covers her mouth then says, "I love you mommy!" She puckers her lips to kiss her and Jessica says, "Haha nice safe!  I love you too, Gabby!"
"Hi princess!" Danny gets down on the floor next to them and smiles.
"Daddy!" She smiles and jumps on him.
He stands up while Jessica who is still on the ground says, "Wait, I'm still down here and I'm stuck!"
Danny's so interested in talking to Gabriella and feeding her donuts that he accidentally ignores Jessica.
"Here Jess, let me help you!" Evan grabs her arm and helps her up.
"Thank you, Evan!" She says then looks over at Danny and rolls her eyes.

"Aw Jess that's such a cute shirt!" Sarah says.
"Hah!  Thanks!  So are you two excited?!" She rests her hands on her stomach and gets a big smile on her face.
"Very!" Evan smiles at her then looks at Sarah.
"I can't believe I'm getting married!"Sara adds.
"Yes, yes and you have me to thank!" Jessica lifts her hands and bows her head down.
"Yes thank you, Jessica!" Sarah laughs.

After they leave they take Gabby to the zoo.

"Probably not the best idea to come to the zoo in the New Orleans heat, at the end of May and being almost nine months pregnant with an abnormally large child.
Danny laughs and says, "I asked if you were sure you wanted to bring her!"
"I know and I'm glad we did... we don't have very many trips like this left.. Just the three of us" she starts to cry.
"Aw baby don't cry!" He puts his arm around her.
"It's just weird how life is changing so fast!" She wipes her face.
"I know it's a lot to take in, but we're good... We're really good and we've got this!"
"We are pretty good!" She smirks.
"Very!" He smiles then kisses her forehead.

"Bear!  Bear!  Mommy it's a bear!" Gabriella points and tries to stand up from her stroller.
Danny and Jessica laugh, "Gabriella, are you excited?" Jessica says sarcastically.
"Yes!  Mommy it's a bear!" She yells then let's out a loud roar.
Everyone around them stares at Gabby and thought she was the cutest thing.
"Look a mommy bear, a baby bear, a daddy bear and the mommy bear has a baby bear in her tummy!  Like you!" She smiles at Jessica.
"Awe does she?"
"Yeah look!"
"Oh I see!" Jessica smiles and plays along.
"Alright, say bye bye bear!" Jessica waves.
"Bye bye bear!" Gabby waves and roars again.

They get to the sea lions and Danny takes her out of the stroller so she can see.
"Gabby what is that?" Jessica asks as he holds her.
"I don't know!" She makes a funny face.
"They're sea lions." Danny says.
"Oh!"
"What are they doing?" Jessica asks.
"They're sleepin' in the waler!" She says meaning, "water"
They laugh at how cute she sounds and Gabriella says, "It's stinky!" While puckering her lips and scrunching her nose.
"That's because they're eating, do you know what they eat, Gabby?" Danny asks.
"Mhmm." She nods.
"What do they eat, momma?" Jessica asks.
"Macaroni and ketchup." She says staring at the sea lions amazed.
"Haha!  They eat that?" Jessica says laughing so hard she almost pees herself.
"Yeah!" Gabriella smiles.

Fun fact.
The sea lion story was what I said when I was two😂💁🏻

They get home and Jessica says, "You wanna take a nap with mommy?"
Gabriella nods while yawning.

The go upstairs and lay down in Jessica's bed, "Mommy?"
"Yes baby?"
"How did the baby get in your tummy?"
"God sent him from Heaven and put him in my tummy." She smiles at her.
"Oh!  Mommy?"
"Uh-huh?" Jessica says with her eyes closed.
"Do you like the baby?"
"Yes baby!  Why would you ask that?"
"Because you ate him."
Jessica laughs and says, "Honey I didn't eat him!  I told you, God sent him and he was put in mommy's tummy.  I don't eat babies.. Unless they're a bad girl!" She tickles her and moves her mouth on her stomach like she's eating her.
Gabriella laughs from being tickled then says, "Was I in your tummy, mommy?"
"You sure were!  You used to kick me all the time and roll around in my belly!" She says making her laugh.
"Is that funny?"
"Yeah it's silly!  I'm too big for you now!" She says pointing to herself.
"Yes you are!  You're a big girl now!" Jessica laughs.

A while later Danny comes up to check on them and smiles when he sees them both asleep.
He kisses their foreheads and covers them with a blanket.

"Mommy!" Gabriella wakes up but Jessica is still snoring and is fast asleep.
"Mommy!" She hits her arm.
"What baby?" She jerks up.
"I just saw a movie in my head!" Gabriella says freaking out.
Jessica laughs and says, "Sweetie, that's called a dream."
