Within a week of Olivia going back to work, Trevor had gotten the boys into a schedule. Robbie went to bed at night, but only if he was swaddled in his mother's t-shirt. Trevor didn't expect to have as much time on his hands as he actually did, but with Robbie being such a good kid, he managed to do a lot of things around the house that he hadn't gotten too earlier.
He cleaned out the attic, fixed the closet doors in Quintin's room, and he managed to also paint the kitchen. He had a lot more to do, but felt good with what he had gotten done.
Their family was doing great, and they prayed every night that nothing else would cause problems in their family.
"Mama!" Quintin yelled as soon as his mother got home. Olivia sat her bag down on the floor before catching her son after he pretty much threw himself at her.
"Hi, baby! How was school?" Olivia asked, before covering her son's face in kisses.
"It was okay, but something awesome happened tonight!" Quintin exclaimed, and Olivia smiled as she sat him down.
"What happened?" Olivia grinned.
"Robbie is sitting up by himself!" Quintin exclaimed. Olivia's eyes went wide before she quickly moved to where Robbie was sitting on the rug as he sucked on his fist.
"Oh baby." Olivia cooed, before sinking down in front of her son. Robbie pulled his fist out of his mouth and smiled at his mother as he reached out to her.
"Mama, he's getting so strong." Quintin smiled.
"He is... he's a strong Langan man just like you and Daddy." Olivia smiled. But her smiled faded when she heard a big thump outside.
"Where's your Daddy?" Olivia breathed, as she stood before lifting Robbie up and placing him on her hip.
"He was outside fixing the gutters..." Quintin breathed, before he and his mother quickly ran outside to check on Trevor.
When they got outside, Trevor was swearing as he stood slowly and held his arm.
"Trev?" Olivia breathed, and Trevor turned around slowly before looking at his wife.
"I'm a dumbass." He grumbled.
"Do you think it's broken?" Olivia frowned, and Trevor nodded.
"Y-yeah... I think it's broken."

Olivia thought her night was going to be relaxing. She thought that she'd go home and spend the night with her husband and sons. But instead she had to drive her husband to the hospital since he fell off the ladder and broke his left arm. Thanks to having no snow to fall on, it might be worse than it might have been.
"Alright, you three sit here. I'm going to go get the paperwork for Daddy." Olivia spoke, as she sat Robbie on Quintin's lap.
"What did Daddy do to his arm?" Quintin frowned.
"He broke his arm because he was on a ladder when he shouldn't have. I'll be back soon, babies... and the klutz that I married." Olivia sighed, before moving to stand in line at the front desk.
She stood there for awhile before finally talking to a nurse and getting paperwork to fill out for Trevor. Olivia settled down beside her husband before starting to fill out the paperwork.
"Olivia, I'm sorry." Trevor frowned, as he looked over at his wife.
"Don't apologize, Trev. I just wish that you would have been more careful. Especially since you were home alone with the boys. I trust Quintin with Robbie, but not for more than a few minutes at a time." Olivia breathed, as she glanced over to see that Robbie had fallen asleep in his brother's arms.
"I won't be doing anything like that again, trust me..." Trevor sighed, before leaning his head against his wife's shoulder as she continued with the paperwork.
"You better not... I need you alive."
"Why?" Trevor asked, and Olivia rolled her eyes as she shifted a tiny bit.
"Because you are my husband. You take care of me and our boys. Because I love you and need you around. I already almost lost you a year ago, and we can't be doing that again."

Trevor was taken for x-rays about three hours after they arrived. While he was getting that done, Olivia called her mother-in-law and asked her to come up to the hospital and get the boys. She also called and told Elliot, and he came up to sit with Olivia once the boys went home with their grandmother.
"Your husband is a mess." Elliot spoke, as he sat down beside Olivia and gave her a bottle of water.
"Oh yeah. But I love that mess." Olivia said with a weak smile.
"Are you doing okay, Liv? You look exhausted."
"I haven't been feeling great, El. Work has been especially hard lately, and I just get home and want to pass out most of the time. And now Trevor can't do everything he usually does because his arm is broken. So I'm going to have to pick up more slack again."
"Maybe it's time to get a nanny or something. Maybe someone to help out with the boys and maybe do some laundry."
"El, I can't get a nanny. I only have two kids. I'll just have to see if I can come in earlier to work and get out earlier. Then I can spend more time at home at night." Olivia spoke, yawning as she got to the end of her sentence.
"Mrs. Langan?" A nurse asked, and Olivia turned and looked at him.
"Yes?"
"Your husband's arm has a clean break. They are going to set it and then put a cast on it."
"Does he get to pick a color or is that only for kids?" Olivia said with a weak smile.
"He said that he wanted his son to pick. Is your son around to make this very important decision?" The nurse asked.
"He's at home, but he'd pick blue."
"Okay, we are going to get mix that up if you want to go see your husband."
"Thanks." Olivia sighed. She stood slowly and grabbed her purse before turning and looking at her friend.
"Want me to stick around?" Elliot asked, and Olivia shook her head.
"Nah, but thanks for coming and sitting with me. Would you mind calling Tally on your way home? Check in on my babies?"
"Will do. Tell Trevor that I hope his arm feels better."

Trevor had to sit and relax for a bit after he got his cast on due to the pain medication he was on. But while he waited, Olivia sat beside him and gently caressed his hair.
"Trev?" Olivia asked, and her husband yawned as she looked at him.
"Yeah?"
"I'm sorry that you got hurt tonight."
"Don't apologize. It's my fault and only my fault."
"From now on, I want you to take things easy. Don't go work on the roof or try and fix anything else. Maybe just stick to spending the day with Robbie and helping Quintin with his homework."
"What about everything that has to get done at home?" Trevor frowned.
"I'll do it when I get home from work."
"But you are going to over do it." Trevor replied.
"Well, between work, you and the boys, and doing stuff at home..." Olivia trailed off before kneading her eye brows together before swallowing hard.
"Liv? Did you fall asleep?"
"Trev, I don't wanna get excited or anything but-"
"But what?"
"Dude, I might be either pregnant or getting sick. Don't know yet."
