"Boys.. behave". I call out at the three kids sprinting around the garden.. or well Noah and Oliver are sprinting around.. little Charlie is sitting on his father's arm.. letting him do the sprinting.

Zac comes over, grinning at me.. but Charlie is complaining reaching after his brothers and Zac puts him down. "Sorry darling.. just trying to burn of some of their energy before Tom and Cass arrive".

"It's okay babe.. just don't get them worked up to much". I smile when he slip his arms around me. "How are you feeling baby ? No morning sickness ?"

"Nope, not the least". I have been suffering from it in the other three pregnancies. "Maybe my body has just .. gotten used to being pregnant by now".

He leans in to kiss just below my ear. "Or maybe it's a girl this time..".

"Actually..". I giggle softly. "The scan I had this morning.. I know it was just supposed to be like.. a check.. but she was laying just right and..".

"She.. are you saying that..?" He is practically jumping on the spot and I can't help smiling wide as I nod, making him let out a triumphant and very happy yell.

I hear a very well known chuckle and then Tom's voice. "What's with all the screaming Zac ?"

Zac is trying to say something, but give up, making a weird sound and fanning his his eyes.

"Uhm Zac is just happy because.. Well we are expecting a little girl in about 5 months". I tell Tom and my sister.

"Another ?" My sister hurry over to hug me. "Are you two trying for like a football team or something ?"

I glance at Zac. "Someone have a huge desire to get a daughter.. and speaking about daughters.. where is the cutest niece niece in the world hiding".

"I am here auntie Allie". My little nice Nel with the blue eyes and the wild ginger curls look out from behind Tom's legs.

"Come give me a hug then cutie pie". I hold out my arms and she come sprinting over, letting me lift her up and hug her.

She hugs me tightly.. she is the cutest.. she is 3 years old just like our Oliver. "Are you having another baby aunty ?"

"Yeah sweetie.. a little girl this time.. for you to play with instead of all these boys". I grin at her.

"Mommy !?" She turns slightly in my arms to look at Cassidy. "Can we have a little girl too ? I want a baby sister".

Tom walks over, giving me a kiss on the cheek and a one armed hug, on his other arm is Nel's baby brother Theo, who is 6 months old. "You almost just had a baby brother.. isn't that enough ?"

"Dad ! He is cute.. sometimes but he is not a girl.. we need a girl". She say very seriously, making all of us laugh.

"Let's see in.. som time". Tom say softly. "Now go play with your cousins.. but remember.. be nice".

I put her down and she run to hug Zac's leg, before sprinting after my boys. I look at Tom and my sister. "So are you going to give her a baby sister ?"

They look at each other and start chuckling.. my sister shaking her head. "Oh no.. we are sticking with these two.. I am not you".

"Well I think we are stopping after this one.. now Zac finally get his little princess to spoil". I say grinning.

Cassidy pout. "Hey I thought I was Zac's princess".

He comes over to put an arm around her shoulder and kisses the top of her head in a fatherly way. "You will always be my big princess Cass".

"Aww thanks.. now he is calling me fat too". She makes a face, making us all laugh.

I look around, my husband, my wonderful kids, my sweet sister and her beautiful family.. the road here might have been bumpy.. but I have all I could ever ask for.. and I can't imagine it is possible being happier than I am now.
