"I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU!!" Tina screamed from her laying down position on a hospital bed.

"Love you too, honey." Artie said nervously as he felt her squeeze his hand and nearly yelped at how tight it was.

"You're almost there, just a couple more pushes. You can do it, hon." The doctor, Dr. Jay, said soothingly.

Tina squeezed her eyes shut and Artie's hand tight as she let out another strained push, and two more after that until her yelling stopped and a baby cry could be heard within the hospital room.

"A healthy baby girl." Dr. Jay said with a smile as one of the nurses immediately came and wrapped up the infant in a blanket.

The couple, now parents, gasped as the nurse brought her over to Tina, "Would you like to hold her?" She asked softly to the Asian girl who nodded wordlessly, still breathing heavily.

She gave the baby to Tina who held her in her arms and looked at her lovingly, Artie doing the same sitting right next to them. "Do you have a name for this beautiful baby girl?" The nurse asked.

Tina looked at Artie and they both nodded. "Carrie." Artie said as he brushed a strand of hair out of Tina's sweaty face. "And I'll love her forever."

"Mhm, so will I." Tina said tiredly as her eyelids drooped and she leaned back against a pillow before promptly falling asleep.

The nurse took notice of this and was about to take Carrie out of her mothers arms so they could clean her off when Artie stooped her, "Can I say something to her first?" He asked.

She nodded, "Of course."

Artie smiled at the nurse and took the little bundle in his arms, "I can't wait to see you take your first step." He whispered to her and pressed a kiss to her tiny forehead.

10 months after Carrie Abram-Chang was born, Artie was in his room doing a project when he heard his wife calling him excitedly from the living room, "Artie! Artie! Come here and look at this."

Confused and excited, Artie wheeled himself down the ramp they installed in their house to the living room, "Whats up? If it's another movie question, Tina, just look it up. I have to finish this-"

He stopped in the middle of his sentence when he saw his little girl walking towards him.

He wheeled himself closer, carful not to run over her toes, and looked over at Tina with a huge grin on his lips, "Is it- She's really-" he managed to get out.

Tina nodded and went over to her husband and sat on his lap, making him wrap his arms around her waist, "Believe it, sweetheart. She's taking her first step, I know that you've always wanted to see that."

"It's amazing." He whispered. "I don't think I'm ever going to be as happy as I am right now." He said as he brought Tina in for a passionate kiss in which she returned immediately.

"I'll go get the video recorder so we can get this on video to embarrass her at her high school graduation." Tina said as she pulled away with a smirk.

Artie laughed, "Sounds great." He said as he watched Carried in awe.

Tina chuckled under her breath and pecked Artie's lips before getting up and heading upstairs.

She was so happy Artie got to see their child's first step.

Wow, one update yesterday and two today. I am on a roll!
