Callie POV

Callie- is the baby okay?

Doctor- it's a healthy baby girl

I smiled, a girl. I would have been happy either way but all these months I had been secretly hoping for a girl. I only caught a glimpse of her before the nurses whisked her over to a nearby table to clean her up. Brandon leaned in and kissed my forehead.

Brandon- you did so good

the nurse brought the baby wrapped in a blanket over to me. I reached my arms out and the nurse placed her in my arms. Brandon leaned in closer to the bed.

Callie- she is perfect

Brandon- she's so beautiful, just like her mom

Callie- you want to hold her?

Brandon- yeah

I handed to baby to Brandon, you could tell by the way he took her he was little scared.

Brandon- she's so small

Brandon touched the baby's hand and she grabbed his finger.

Callie- we have to name her

Brandon- yeah, any ideas?

Callie- I want to name her Colleen

Brandon- Colleen.. after your mom?

I nodded

Brandon- I love it

the rest of the family came in briefly to see the baby. I was supposed to be resting right now but instead I was holding Colleen. Brandon ran home to get some things since I would be in the hospital for a day or two. I heard the door to my hospital room open, I looked up and saw Jude coming in.

Callie- hey

Jude- I know I'm supposed to leave you alone right now but..

Callie- no, no come here, come sit with me

Jude came over and crawled on the bed to sit next to me.

Callie- what did you need?

Jude- nothing I just.. I didn't get to really see the baby earlier

I smiled and held Colleen out towards him.

Callie- your gonna help me take care of her when we get home right, change diapers and..

Jude- no way!

Callie- oh come on

Jude- nope

Callie- well I am glad when we get to take Colleen home.. you'll be there with us

Jude- me too
