Alison POV:
"Is everything set up?!" I yell at all of the guys.

It's Brighton and Levi's 2nd birthday, and I want it to be perfect.

Emerson and Anderson are 4 years old, along with Keira, and Hanna and Caleb's girls, Charlotte and Kennedy.

"Yep!" Mike says.

There are streamers and colorful balloon strings hanging down from the tall ceiling, balloons tied to the grand staircase, and confetti covering the floors.

"Woo!" I hear Emily shout as Anderson throws a confetti egg, knocking over their 'target' which is really just a red solo cup. How awesome.

"Nice one, Little Man!" Emily says, giving him a high five.

Emerson comes running in, confetti in her hair.

"Ooh, someone got you good." Emily laughs.

"Who?" Anderson asks her.

"Hanna." She says, making a pouty face.

She's too cute. And I love the way they talk. It's baby-ish, but you can understand them.

"Ugh! The cuteness is killing me!" I exclaim, walking over.

"Mum!" Brighton shouts, running over to Emily.

"Hey, Baby Blue!" She says, going to pick her up, but I stop her.

"Nope! No heavy objects." I say, pointing towards her belly.

"She isn't even heavy." Emily says.

"So? You're still pregnant." I scold her.

"Whatever." She scoffs, and picks up Brighton.

"How old are you now? Sixteen?" Emily asks her.

"Noooo!" Brighton laughs out as she smiles.

"How old are you then?!" She asks, pretending to be shocked.

"Two!" She say, holding up 3 fingers, making Emily, Emerson, and Anderson giggle.

"Two." Emily says, putting one of her fingers down.

"Oops!" Brighton exclaim, shrugging.

"You're silly." Emily says, and kisses her nose. Brighton scrunches up her nose and face, and purses her lips.

"And definitely related to this one." She says, pointing at me.

"Yep!" Brighton replies, popping the P.

"And me." Emily adds as she giggles again.

"Cake?" Levi asks.

I look down at him and smile.

"Later." I tell him, and he pouts. He rests his head on my knee, and moves to where his face is between my knees.

I pick him up, and we all walk out into the backyard. Everyone's family is here. Emily's. Hanna's. Spencer's. Aria's.

It's set up like a mini carnival. That should explain the theme.

There's even a petting zoo. Which Brighton is totally avoiding.

Emily walks over there with her, and the official toddler starts screaming.

She reaches her arms out as if that will help and buries her head into Emily's arm.

"No!" She screeches.

Emily laughs, and sits down on a bale of hay.

She sits the baby down in her lap, and picks up a bunny.

Emily POV:
"Look. Say bunny." I say to Brighton.

"Bunny."

"Good job!" I exclaim, and smile at her. She smiles back at me, biting her bottom lip, her tiny front teeth sticking out. Just like Alison.

She looks at me, and holds her arms out to hold the bunny.

I gently place the bunny in her arms, and she giggles.

After a few minutes, she decides she done the with the bunny. She puts it on the ground, and runs off towards the chickens.

This should be good.

Spencer POV:
"Happy birthday babies!" I exclaim.

"I can't believe out of the 11 children in this house, 6 of them share a birthday." Hanna says, holding Chandler.

"And that my baby is two." She pouts, snuggling up to him.

I laugh, and pick up Lennox.

"Mama!" She says, laughing.

"Lennox!"

Emerson, Anderson, Keira, Charlotte, and Kennedy all run the same direction laughing. I also notice they are covered in confetti.

I see Caleb running down the hall after them laughing.

Carter is running towards me smiling with a confetti egg in his left hand.

"Mama!" He shrieks.

"Carter Lee!"

Before he can get to me, Ashton comes from the side, smashing a confetti egg into Hanna's toms that she's wearing.

"Ashton Tobias!" She yells, trying to hold in her laughter.

"Ahhh!" Ashton says in a sarcastic way.

"Why doesn't my kid have any clothes on?" I ask, once I realize he's only in a diaper.

"Who knows?" Hanna says, and we walk into the kitchen with Lennox and Chandler.

Alison POV:
I watch as Brighton runs over, trying to get the chickens.

"Look at all those chickens!" I hear someone screech.

I laugh as I turn my head to see Jason, my brother, standing next to me.

"Hey!" I exclaim, and give him a hug.

"Hey, Little Sis." He says as he smiles and hugs me back tighter.

"I haven't seen you in forever!" I declare.

"I know. But I couldn't miss the party for my 4 nephews and 2 nieces." He says.

Everyone in this house is like one big family, so we call each others kids our nieces and nephews.

"I'm glad you came." I say.

"Me too." He replies and smiles at me again.

"So, how've you been?" He asks me.

"I've been good." I say. "You?"

"I'm doing pretty great." He says.

"What have you been up to?" He questions.

"Emily is pregnant." I say excitedly.

"Really?! Congratulations!" He shouts, making us both laugh.

We all enjoy the rest of the party.

Eating carnival food. Opening presents. Having fun. Sharing our big news.

Which reminds me...

Hanna is apparently pregnant, too.
