Fiona and Delia stepped out of the car and Fiona didn't bother to even put her shoes on. She hadn't been this relaxed in years. When she walked in she almost pissed herself as they screamed surprise. She smiled at them with tears in her eyes, hugging all the girls.
"Thank you gu- Ooh I found the cake."
"Atleast she got the thank you out." Sophie said laughing.
After the party Fiona went upstairs and let Joe undress her.
"I've never been so relaxed." She murmured.
"I can tell." He said this as she was falling over to her side, asleep. As soon as he pulled off her dress, he pulled her legs onto the bed and he pulled the blanket over her. Joe undressed and got into bed next to her and spooned her, burying his face into her neck as he drifted off.

Thanksgiving
Fiona sat in the kitchen, mashing the potatoes and falling asleep while doing so. The pregnancy was beginning to take a lot out of her. Cordelia was on the other side of the spacious kitchen, preparing the turkey. Joe walked in and rubbed Fionas back, making her jerk up.
"Jesus Christ you scared me."
"Trade me." He said taking the mashed potato bowl and pushing her into the Ancestors room.
Fiona quickly fell asleep and when the food finished, Joe shook her gently and she jerked up.
"I'm up!" She said half asleep and her head slipping back down.
Joe chuckled and gently pushed her over.
He walked back into the dining room and sat down.
"Wheres mother?"
"Shes sleeping, this pregnancy is taking a toll on her."
