*December*
I'm now 5 1/2 months. Matt and I are still living in my parents house but we bought our house. We are planning to move after the new year.
My birthday is in February and I'm turning 18 but since Matt is a year older than me, he's already 18 and is turning 19 in July.

Currently, I am sitting on a chair watching Matt putting up the Christmas Tree. I've always loved Christmas. I'm so excited! "Matt!" I screamed out of fear. The babies kicked at the same time which never happened before and it didn't hurt but I almost forgot I was pregnant as Christmas was just around the corner.
"What!?" He worriedly asked rushing down the ladder he was on and running across the room to me. I laughed. "I'm sorry Matt! The babies kicked at the same time and it scared me a little." I saw his face, his eyes were open wide and so was his mouth. He suddenly pecked my lips. "What was that for?" I needed it after you gave me a heart attack. "AWW Matt! I'm sorry!" I laughed.
He finished putting up the tree (to get on a good note with my dad since he got me pregnant first and now we're moving across the country.) and we invited Andrew, Rose, and Leah over so he could finally meet them since I talk about them so much.
Matt and I sat by the fireplace with our matching mugs and drank peppermint hot cocoa because why not?
*DING DONG*
I screamed. "Yay!" I got up and ran to open the door for Andrew. "Andrew!" I screamed, hugging him tightly.
"Oh my god. I'm never letting you go on a tour without me again." He said holding my belly. I laughed and brought him into the living room to meet Matt.
"Matt, this is Andrew. He was the first person I ever met in Virginia. He's my best guy friend." I said as Matt stood up to shake his hand like the gentleman he is. "Andrew? Would you like some peppermint hot cocoa?" I asked him. "If it's no trouble." I shook my head. "None at all." I walked into the kitchen and got a mug, made the cocoa, then went back into the living room handing it to Andrew as I sat down on the love sofa next to Matt.
Then the door bell rang again. "Really. As I sit down." I got up and went to the door and opened it to see 2 girls with pink and blue hair. "Leah!" I hugged the blue girl. "Rose!" I hugged the pink one. "Would you guys like any peppermint hot cocoa?" They both nodded their heads. "Okay! Andrew is in the living room with Matt." The nodded their heads again, rushing into the living room.
I went into the kitchen and made them hot cocoa. By now Rose and Leah were probably telling Matt stories about how I used to fangirl over him.
I walked into the living room. "I'm so happy we're all here!" I said handing the hot cocoa to Rose and Leah. Sitting back down with Matt, we all talked and told stories for about 2 hours.
"Why don't we finish putting up some decorations?" I suggested after all the stories were told.
Everyone agreed. Matt ran up to the attic and brought down a few boxes filled with tinsel, ornaments, and reefs. It was really getting us all into the Christmas spirit.
Once we were half way done with the tree I pulled Rose aside.
"Rose, are Andrew and Leah dating?" She shook her head. "It could've sure fooled me. Mom pretty sure they like each other." Rose smiled at my observation. "It's in her diary. She loves Andrew. Totally infatuated by him. Plus, he always talks about her and hangs out with her, he always looks at her. They even went to the movies and got ice cream once." I squealed. "Yay!" We both laughed.
"Let's take a group picture for Instagram!" Everyone got around for a picture and we all smiled. I only took the picture from the chest up like I've been doing since I've gotten pregnant.
I posted it on Instagram and everyone else reposted it. "Princess, come here take a selfie with me." I smiled and walked over to Matt. I sat down and cupped his cheek and kissed him as he took the picture. "I love it." He said as he posted it. Then I reposted it. All of the sudden both of our phones blew up.
"Oh god. What's going on?" We both went through our notifications on Twitter and Instagram. There was a trending hashtag, #mattziemarried. "Oh no! My ring! They thought.." I trailed off. "Shhh. It's okay. We can clear this up." Then my phone rang. "It's Cam." I answered it. "Hello?" "YOUR ENGAGED AND YOU DIDNT EVEN TELL ME DO YOU WANT ME TO REMIND YOU WHO INTRODUCED YOU TWO?" I heard a loud voice threw the phone. "No-" "I can't believe this! When did he even ask you? With out any of the guys?" "Cameron! We're not engaged! It's just a ring I was wearing!" There was silence. "Sorry. I didn't realize.. The hashtag.. I just thought." I heard him stutter through the phone. "I know. So does everyone else in America." He laughed, "It's a pretty ring." "Thanks, can you make sure all the guys know? I don't want to be bombed with questions." "Yeah." "Thanks. Bye." "Bye." I hung up. I let out a deep sigh and laid on Matt's shoulder as Andrew put in The Polar Express. He turned the lights off and came in with popcorn and candy canes and we spent the rest of the night watching Christmas movies and pigging out of junk food, not that it would matter for me because I'm already this fat.
It was really late, like, 3 AM late. We decided to have Rose, Leah, and Andrew sleep over. We all slept in the living room but I got the couch.

I fluttered my eyes open. It was 11AM.
I got up and decided to make everyone brunch. I hope they all like pancakes.
I grabbed the mix from the cabinet and started adding all the ingredients to the bowl.
I mixed it all up and began pouring it onto the tray in circle shapes. I stopped once I heard footsteps coming into the kitchen.
"Hey Mack. Whatcha making? Smells good." It was Andrew.
"Pancakes!" I beamed. I continued making the pancakes and by the time they were done everyone was up.
We all sat down and ate our tree shaped pancakes and chocolate milk.
"So, what are you guys doing for Christmas?" I asked putting my plate in the sink.
"Going to Colorado to visit family." Andrew spoke.
"We're going to Hawaii!" Leah said excitedly.
I laughed. "Oh my gosh! That sounds so fun!"
"It is!" They laughed.
-
"They're nice." Said Matt as I shut the door behind Andrew, Leah, and Rose.
"That's why they're my friends!" I giggled.
Matt hugged me. "Alright princess."
We walked into the living room with he rest of my family and we discussed the matter of LA.
"We can visit you on Christmas. And Easter." I said. "And we can come up to visit you during summer break!" Macey blurted. I laughed. They were so smart for their age. "I think this will work out great." My father added. I smiled.
