The next morning Jessica woke up and climbed on top of Danny.
"Danny today's our baby girl's birthday! She's one!" She shouts and shakes him a little.
Danny slowly opens his eyes and focuses them on Jessica.
He chuckles and places his hand on her waist.
"I'm gonna go wake her up!"
Jessica rolls off of him and runs to Nova's room.
"Good morning, my princess!"
Nova was already awake with her binky in her mouth. She looked to her mother with sleepy eyes.
"Happy Birthday, Novies!" Jessica picks her up and kisses her cheek.
"You're one year old today! Can you show me one?" Jessica says holding her finger up.
Nova lifts her tiny finger.
"Good job, baby girl!"
Nova smiles and throws herself down on her shoulder.
"Let's go say good morning to daddy."
Nova lifts her head and kicks her legs with excitement.
"Yeah Daddy!" Jessica giggles.
"The birthday girl is up!" She says walking into their bedroom.
"Hey pretty girl!" Danny smiles.
Nova reaches for her father until he takes her from Jessica.
"Happy Birthday, Lovebug!" Danny kisses her cheek.
"How are you one already? That's so crazy!"
Jessica climbs up on the bed and rests her body beside them.
"She's a big girl now! Aren't you, Novies?
Now you just need to talk!" Jessica taps Nova's nose making her giggle.
"Can you say mama?"
"No because she's gonna say dada! Isn't that right, Nova?" Danny smiles as he speaks to his daughter in a baby voice.
"In your dreams, old man!" Jessica laughs.
"Tell daddy mommy's right!"
Nova just looks at her parents with her pacifier in her mouth.
"She's never gonna talk with this in her mouth!" Danny says taking the pacifier out of her mouth.
"Ah! Ahh!" Nova quickly gets irritated.
"Awe Danny, don't take her paci away! Say that's not nice, dada!" Jessica says that last part in a high voice.
"Ahh! NO!"
Jessica and Danny gasp.
"She just said no!"
"Well she sure shut us up, didn't she?" Danny chuckles.
"She did! She didn't say mama OR dada! You little stinker!"
Nova snatches her pacifier away from Danny and sticks it in her mouth. She sucks on it and looks at her parents.
"You little booty!
..Look at this beautiful baby, Danny."
"I know.. How is she so perfect?"
"I don't know.." Jessica smiles and softly caressed Nova's cheek.
"Oh right! You're her mother, that's how she's so perfect!"
"Heh! Very cheesy, Mr. Huston."
