I couldn't keep Ella in her crib all night crying. It was starting to break my heart, Especially when she would call for me.

"Okay, I can't take her crying anymore. I'm going to go get her." I said as I stood up from the couch.
We all fell asleep in the living room last night after our movie night. I guess we were to lazy to move upstairs.

"Okay. Maybe she's just hungry." Mikey said.

"She could be. I'll be right back." I said as I made my way up stairs.

When I entered Ella's room her crying stopped immediately.

"Hey baby girl, What's wrong?" I asked her as I picked her up.

When she opened her mouth I could see a couple more teeth on their way. That explains it, She's teething again.

"Oh, I see. Are you in pain?" I asked her.

She just nuzzled her face into my neck and I took that as her yes.

"She seems happier now!" Mikey said as I walked down stairs.

"I think she's teething again. I can see a couple more teeth popping up. I'm going to give her some medicine for the pain." I said.

"Good idea." Ash said as I searched the cabinet for her medicine.

"Here we go! Okay open up, Ella!" I said as I held the little spoon for her.

She happily took it and she instantly smiled at me. It was cute seeing her little toothy grin. She has two teeth on top, Two on bottom now, And it's in the middle of her mouth so when she smiles, You can see them.

"Better?" I asked her.

She just smiled at me and started to shove her finger in my mouth.

She's so cute and weird. Like all babies.

"So, Now that we've got you taken care of, Let's get back to bed. It's only five in the morning." I said to her.

"Dada." Ella said with a yawn.

"Ella." I mimicked back.

"Okay, You're just going to cuddle with me tonight. I'm to lazy to bring you back to your room." I said while laying her on my chest.

She started to fall asleep and I eventually heard little snores coming from her mouth, And I eventually let the sleep take over.

.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.

"Luke! Wake up!" Ashton said. "It's nine now. But look! A rainbow is forming outside!"

"Really? Where?" I said.

"Come on! We can't miss the rainbow! Ella! You'll love these, They're so pretty!" Ashton said excitingly.

"Is that a rainbow?" Cal asked.

"Yes! Come on! We need a selfie with the rainbow!" Ashton yelled as he ran outside.

Anything can amaze Ash. Even a rainbow. That guy is so bubbly.

"Dada!" Ella Said while looking at the sky. Her little eyes became wide as she looked up and saw all the colors. She wiggled out of my grasp and she started walking towards it! All by herself! I was the proudest dad at that moment. My little girl is walking, Without me helping her! Or her falling over!

I whipped out my phone and recorded her walking around.

"Keep going baby girl! You're doing great!" I said.

"She's getting so big! I'm so proud of her!" Mikey said.

I heard Ella laughing and just having fun with the guys while I recorded her, And I was so happy she's apart of our family. We may be very weird, And I know there will be bumps in the road as we go along, But I know one thing, And that is she'll all ways have a family to bounce back on. She's ours forever.

"I'm so proud of you!" Mikey said while scooping her up and spinning around with her.

I stopped and took a picture of Mikey and Ella together. They both looked so happy, It was adorable.

I think I should make a baby book. I have so many pictures now of Ella and all of us together, I'd like to remember these memories. And so she can have something to look back on when she's older.

"Hey guys! Want to run to the store quick? I want to get a baby book, So I can start on for Ella." I said.

"Let's go! We need food anyways." Ash said. 

We set off for the store to get what we needed and on our way their our song, "She's kinda hot" came on the radio and Ella started to dance to it in her car seat.

"Awe! Someone likes this song." Mike said while making a keek of her dancing.

"She's all ready becoming more and more like me, Everyday." I said.

"We'll be right back, You guys can just stay in the car while me and Ash get the things." I said to Cal and Mike.

"Okay! We'll keep Ella company." Cal said while singing to the song.

"You're such a good dad, Luke. I'm proud of you for sticking with her and being her father." Ash said.

"Thanks Ash. But I couldn't do it all, I'm glad you guys are here to help me out too." I said.

"That's what brothers do!" Ash said.

"Speaking of brothers, I should see if my brothers want to visit some time. I've missed them." I said.

"Yeah! Then they can meet Ella!" Ash said.

"True! Maybe I'll call them and we can have a family BBQ or something." I said.

"Do it! Call them since we're all ready at the store and have them come over this weekend! We'll grill up some food and just have a fun day. And I'll get ahold of my mom and have the guys get ahold of their parents as well!" Ash said.

"Okay! Let's get this plan into action then." I said.

After we got ahold of everyone and they agreed to come. I was excited for my brothers to meet Ella. We got what we needed and headed home.

"This will be one fun weekend." I thought to myself.

"Ella! Guess who you'll be meeting this weekend? Your uncles!!" I said.

Ella didn't say anything, She just smiled up at me. But I was excited for my brothers to meet her. I'm sure they'll love her.
