"She'll be awake in about an hour. That's why I scheduled the party for 3 pm instead of 2 pm. I know my daughter." I tell Justin.

"I wasn't questioning you, baby. I was just wondering." He replies.

"I'm pretty sure those are the same thing."

"Okay, no arguing. Today is about Bella. If she ever wakes up."

"Shut up. I can't believe my baby is already one."

"She turned one 3 days ago."

"I'm aware. But I still can't believe it."

"I know. It seems like just yesterday my princess was still right here." Justin rests his hand on my belly and I smile.

"Now her little brother and sister stole her spot."

"I don't know if I'm ready for 4 kids."

"I don't either, but we have no other choice."

Justin rubs my stomach until my favorite little girl comes downstairs.

"Mommy, I'm ready to party!" Aviella says.

"Well, your sister is still asleep. We should leave in a couple minutes, though, so get ready to go." I say.

"Yay!" Aviella runs back upstairs and I laugh.

Bella's birthday party is at a trampoline park. I know she's only one, but most of the kids that were coming were older than her, and they had an area for babies that she could play in.

"I'll go get Bella?" Justin says.

"Why are you asking? She's your daughter."

"I'll take that as a yes." Justin gets off of the couch and walks upstairs.

Since Alexa was such an amazing party planner, she had everything with her, except Bella's cake. We were gonna pick it up on the way to the party.

Aviella comes downstairs and picks up my purse. She was such a big help to me and Justin, and I couldn't appreciate her more.

When Justin comes downstairs with Bella, they both go outside to the car and I make sure we didn't forget anything we need.

Bella went to sleep in her birthday outfit, so we wouldn't have to change her when she woke up because she would be very upset.

(ofc hers doesn't say Chloe, but I can't find one with Bella so use your imagination again lol)

"Alexa!" Aviella yells.

Olivia walks in with Alexa followed by Jonathan, holding Jaidyn. (i'm pretty sure i said their sons name would be Jaidyn in the last book but I don't remember)

"There's my little boy. I missed you Jaidyn." I take Jaidyn from Jonathan and sit down.

"You're so big now. 8 months already." I hold him for a few minutes before he gets fussy and I return him to his mom.

Justin, the girls, and Alexa were already playing on the trampolines, now I was just sitting and talking with my own Alexa.

"I'm gonna take Jay to the little baby area. alright, babe?" Jonathan says.

"Yeah, that's fine."

We have a little girls chat before Pattie and Jeremy show up with the kids. Not long after them, my mom and Frankie, then everyone else comes.

Some of Aviella's friends from school were invited, as well as Bella's "friends" from daycare, since it was her party.

Once everyone arrived, pretty much all of the kids were playing and the parents were watching them or talking or both.

"Chloe always tell me she loves playing with Bella. She's such a cutie." One of the parents tells me.

"Thank you so much."

I really didn't even know all of these people or their kids, but I just invited them because their kids went to Bella's daycare.

"Mommy, Tessa can do a back handspring on the trampoline!" Aviella yells, running to me with Alexa and Tessa.

"Yeah! She said she's gonna teach us!" Alexa adds.

"That's great, girls. Be careful, please." They run off to the trampolines again and I shake my head.

"Those girls are a mess." Tessa's mom, Talia, says.

Over the past few months, Olivia and I had gotten to know her and she was now a good friend of ours.

"They definitely are." Olivia says, bouncing Jaidyn on her leg.

"Babe, I'm gonna go do fun man things with Johnny." Justin says, bringing Bella to me.

"She's getting bored of the trampolines." He says before disappearing again.

"Let me see my niece." Frankie says.

I happily pass Bella to my brother and continue my conversation with my friends.

5:11 pm

After we sing happy birthday, Bella digs into her mini cake with her hands and I laugh.

Justin and Frankie cut everybody who wants one a piece of cake.

"I think this was a very successful party." Olivia says.

"Definitely. Thanks for coming."

"No problem. It was pretty fun." We both laugh and continue to eat our cake.

Hope you guys enjoyed this first part, I could not do anything else until I finished writing it. Also, let me know if there is anyone in the book you want to see a picture of because I definitely don't have a problem with it.
