From a Duo to a Trio : the first year

The First Birthday Party

The couple sat in the bathroom waiting.

" I hope you are, we worked really hard on this one.. like super hard" he smiled at her

" shhh" she said " I'm not gonna lie I'm kinda nervous for this one.."

" yea.. like it's the third time we tried and it hadn't work.." he said

" I know.." she said " we got pregnant so fast the last time"

" that's because we didn't mean for it to happen.." he said

She chuckled " i wish it was that easy"

" I know.." he said

The timer went off

" you look at it" she said

" okay.." he got up

And picked up the test

And sighed and shook his head

She sighed and got up

" it's okay.." he said holding her shoulder

" I'm fine Austin, it's fine.." she smiled " we have our daughter's birthday party today, I have no time to be upset about this."

" okay.. I don't want you to be"

" really.. I'm fine.." she said " we can't worry about this.. we have a big afternoon ahead of us."

She walks out the bathroom and he followed her

And into the bedroom

Ava sat up from their bed and yawned

" hi baby" Ally said

" hi" Ava said back

" did you have a good nap?" She asked picking her up and snuggling her " you have the biggest party ever waiting for you.. and all your baby friends are there and Daddy, and aunties and uncles, and grandmas and grandpas.."

" and lots of cake and presents.. presents the best part sweetie." Austin came in

" and family." Ally reminded him

" right." He said

" Austin can you please check on everything downstairs and make sure everything is okay?" She asked " I should get her ready"

" okay.." he said getting up before leaving he gave Ally a kiss on the forehead that made her smile

" okay Ava let's take a bath" she said to her daughter

Ava splashed around playing her her toys happily

As Ally  watched her she sighed

" something told me to come in and comfort a little baby" she heard a voice

" mom" Ally said

" how are you sweetheart" Penny asked

" good.."

They both looked at Ava

" she's so cute really.. she's looking more like Austin these days.." Penny said

" you think so?"

" yea.. so what's bothering you?" Penny asked

" nothing.. just first birthday stuff.. she's growing up too fast.. it's also freaking me out that there are people in my house. That are.. making messes"

" you are too much like me Ally." Penny said

" I am.." Ally said

" mama"Ava said handing her a toy
