About 2 weeks later, December 10th, Tommy and Kimberly took the family to see Santa Claus. In Australia, their Christmas is their period of summer. The girls were to give Santa their list of presents and take pictures. Kimberly stood waiting on the pictures of the twins to finish up. Tommy had to rush Trisha to the bathroom. He was happy that he got her there in time, before any accidents.
"So I was thinking about Smitty watching the girls for a couple of hours so we can go shopping."
"Uh, sounds good." Kim handed up Madison's picture to her to see.
"Wow, those came out nice."
"Yea." Tommy had set up for fake snow so the girls could experience that for Christmas. Tommy picked up Madison as Trisha looked through her stacks of pictures she took.
"Mommy, can I have this one?"
"Sure." Trisha took the one picture, dropping the rest. Kim shook her head and picked them up. Mackenzie pointed as she looked through the stack. "Yes, that's you." Kim picked her up. Tommy was driving home, when they stopped by a tree lot. Kim had already loaded up on decorations in the back. They spent the rest of the day decorating the tree and house. Kimberly had a smaller tree placed in the girls room that lit up. It was nightfall, when Tommy picked up Trisha to put the star angel on top. Kim picked up the twins and waited as Tommy plugged in all the lights then held the master switch.
"Okay. 1, 2, 3." Tommy lifted Trisha as they all oohed and ahhed. Tommy put his arm around Kim.
"Pretty Daddy."
"Yea." Kim looked up. They kissed.
"Let's take pictures." Tommy sat up the camera. "On the count of 3, 1, 2, 3, cheese!"
"CHEESE!" The camera snapped. Tommy set for 4 more.
Christmas Day came. Santa was good to all. Tommy and Kim's parents came just 2 days before with tons of presents. Kimberly was flying back with her parents and Tommy's parents on January 3rd. Now, New Year's Eve. Tommy was chilling some champagne to take to the square as Kimberly came out the bathroom.
"Feeling better?" Kim covered her mouth and ran back to puke. Tommy smiled. He had found Kim puking for the past 2 days. "I'll go down to the store."
"Bring a pregnancy test!" Kim yelled before another spur came up. Tommy stopped in his tracks.
"Pregnancy test?" Kimberly was brushing her teeth when Tommy came back. He had a brown paper bag.
"I said one."
"Well, you know how these things work." He started pulling out tests. Kimberly stood there looking at the 5 tests on the sink. "Are you gonna take them?"
"It could be the fruitcake Mom sent, you know how much I hate fruitcake."
"Beautiful, come on." He started opening one. Kimberly sat all 5 tests on the sink as they waiting. She checked her watch, then Tommy's watch. She was tapping her foot. Tommy moved her to him.
"We should go over the results again, pink for.."
"Shhh..just another minute." She nodded. After 2 more minutes, Kimberly picked up one test. Pink lines. She smiled. Tommy read the back of one box. "Plus means pregnant on these, pink lines on that one and.."
"I'm pregnant." She turned to him. "I'm pregnant."
"You're pregnant." He pulled her to his chest. They kissed. She slightly cried against him. "Why are you crying?"
"Just happy." He wiped her face. They kissed again.
"Well, I did promise you an amazing New Year." They laughed.
