Mackenzie and I get to go home today after three long days. Tobias and Lyndsay brought my hospital bag I had packed the night I had her so I got my pillow and stuff. I slowly walk over to my sleeping new born and check and make sure she doesn’t need to be changed and she doesn’t so I just put her little white onesie that has a star on the front on her then the pants and jacket on her that Shauna got her and wrap her in a blanket and put a little hat on her. I know I know it’s a lot but she’s a newborn and its cold outside in fact it’s snowing. After I’m done with all of that I put her in her car seat and slowly get dressed myself; which contains sweats and ugg boots. I throw my hair in a messy bun.  The nurse comes in and hands me her birth certificate and something to sign and says we are ready to go. I call text Tobias and see if he was home and the answer I got was no so I just call Lillian. 

(Bold Tris italics Lillian)

Hey 

Hey my favorite little sibling 

I know your only saying that because of Mackenzie…. But I need you to come get us.

Well aren’t you demanding?

Actually yes. But please I’m tired of this place and i miss my bed and I want a decent bath or shower. 

Fine I’ll be there in 5 be ready

oh dont worry Lilly i will be ready.

*laughs* okay I’m coming.

And within five minutes she’s here. My nurse comes in with a wheel chair. I look at her confused.

“I suppose you’re a little sore from having this little one.” She says. She got the sore part but I wouldn’t say a little. I freaking stretched my... You know out just to have her. And it will take a while to for it to go back to normal. I nod and slowly walk to the wheel chair and sit in it. She hangs my bag and Mackenzie’s bag on the back and put her car seat in my lap. She stirs and scrunches up her face then goes back to sleep. When we make it to the front Lillian and Caleb are standing there. Lillian grabs the car seat off my lap and Caleb helps me out of the wheel chair and into the car and goes back to get our bags. I make Lillian drive slowly. One it’s snowing, two the bumps in some of the roads hurt, three it’s snowing. 

“Soo.” Caleb says.

“So.” 

“What’s her name?” 

“Lillian you didn’t tell him.” She shakes her head. I sigh 

“Mackenzie Madison Eaton.” I say. He turns around in his seat and looks at me and smiles. 

“I’m going to call her Kenzie.” He says. I smile back and we pull into the drive way. I get out of the car and grab my sleeping baby and slowly walk inside. I slowly but surely make it to my room and take her out of her seat and lay her on her pillow thing Lauren got her in the middle of my king sized bed and put everything away. When I’m done I pick her up and walk back down stairs. Caleb takes her and goes in the living room while I get me some real food. I’m so glad I get to eat something other than hospital food. 

“TRISSSSSSS!!” Caleb calls. 

“WHAT?”

“SOMEONES GETTING FUSSY.”  I think about the last time I fed her which was a couple of hours ago. 

“BRING HER TO MY ROOM.” I say walking up stairs. Caleb comes in not long after and hands me Mackenzie. 

“Will you fix me something to eat?” I ask. He nods and goes down stairs to get me food.  I put this thing on my breast so I make a bottle for her. I’ve become a human cow its okay though it’s all worth it for my little girl. Caleb walks in while I’m in the process of making her 2nd bottle so I don’t have to make it later.

“AHH” Mackenzie jumps and starts crying.

“Nice going idiot.” I say.

 “Sorry.” He says and hands me my food and leaves. I shake my head and feed Mackenzie while I eat myself.  When she’s done I burp her change her and she falls back asleep. I lie in the middle of the bed and lay her on my chest and fall asleep.

***********

“Awww look. I’m going to take a picture of this mother daughter moment.”

“Send it to me when you do.”

“okay.” There’s a flash. Mackenzie starts to whimper. Gee thanks. I open my eyes and see Christina, Shauna, Zeke, Mason, and Marlene standing by my bed. I sit up and lay Mackenzie on her pillow, stretch and rub my eyes. 

“Hey there sleeping beauty.” Tobias says then leans over the bed and kisses me I kiss back then pull away. 

“Hey guys.” I say still tired and they wave. 

“Well since daddy is here. I’m going to get a bath.” I say and peck Tobias’s lips and walk to the bathroom. I light some candles and run a bubble bath. While throwing my hair into a messy bun I get in the water and sit and relax with my eyes closed. The door opens and Tobias comes in with Mackenzie in his arms.

“What are you doing?”

“sitting.” He shrugs. This brings back memories.

“You know this is the same thing that happened the night we created her.” He laughs 

“It was. wasn’t it?” I nod my head Mackenzie starts to wake up and getting fussy.

“Bottle in the fridge and I’m pretty sure you know where her diapers and stuff are.” He nods and leaves out of the bathroom. I clean myself and get out putting my robe on. I walk in my room and put on my under garments and one of Tobias’s shirts. He walks in the room and hands me Mackenzie and takes a shower himself I rock her back to sleep and lay her down. I watch TV until Tobias comes out when he comes out I turn off the TV and face him.

“I still look pregnant.” I pout. He chuckles.

“Give it time you did just have her. Soon you will be able to work out and get your body back. Either way you are still beautiful to me.” He says and kisses me. I kiss him back and play with a sleeping Mackenzie’s tiny hands and kiss them.          

“I’m so happy to have her.” I say.

“Me too. I love you and her.” Tobias says. “Now get some sleep.” He kisses the top of my head then Mackenzie’s forehead.

“Love you.” 

“Love you more.”

“Impossible”

“Nothings impossible” he says then falls asleep. I stare and my sleeping baby and boyfriend. They look some much alike. I smile and drift off to sleep thinking of my babies.
