Hailey POV*
Jay crouches down and starts cutting the tree. "Can I help" Auggie asks me. "Yeah bud come here" he say as I take out my phone to take pictures of the moment. "Timber" they yell as the tree falls to the ground. Jay picks up the tree and we walk back to the front of the lot where the workers attach it to the roof the car.

Once we get home after buying a tree stand Jay grabs the Christmas boxes from the garage. "Hey, you need help" I say watching him take down a box. "No you should sit down and rest" he says. "Rest? Why? I was just sitting down" I reply. "No, rest your eyes from staring at my ass all day" he say turning to look at me. "Shut up" I say taking the box from him. He gets the rest of the boxes and brings them into the house. "Kids!" I yell. "It's like stampede" Jay say as the loud foot step erupted. "You guys are going to decorate the tree" I say opening the box of ornaments as Jay gets up to do something. I get up to feed Jaykes , I bring her back to the couch to feed her the bottle. "Hey I got you something" I hear Jay whisper in my ear. He walk around the couch to sit next to me and hands me a small box. "What is it?" I ask. "Open it" he says. I open the box and it's two ornaments one of our new family of six and the other is a picture of Rowan that reads My First Christmas on it. "You like it" he asks burping the baby. "I love it" I say going in for a kiss but Rowan burps. "I guess she loves it too" Jay says. Jay gets Rowan to sleep and we help the kids decorate the tree.
