A/N: Thanks for all the awesome reviews! You know I love them! Here's the next chapter! Enjoy!

When Meredith and Derek arrived at the baby store, they took the boys out of the car and placed them in a cart. Meredith told them that if they were good, they could pick out their big boy beds. Cameron clapped his little hands, as did Daniel.

The first stop on their list was the potties. There was a whole wall of potties. Meredith and Derek stood in front of the wall for a few moments, confused as to which one they should get.

"This one makes a flushing sound." Meredith stated. "It also had a toilet paper holder."

Derek shook his head. "It's too complicated."

Meredith nodded in agreement. "What about this one?" She pointed to a blue wooden potty.

Derek shook his head again. "What if they don't aim correctly and pee on the wood?"

"Good point."

Meredith continued to browse the wall of potties. "Look, there's a toddler urinal. Can we get that?" She asked.

Derek examined it for a minute. "Yeah, that works. We should get one for upstairs, and one for downstairs right?"

"Yeah that's good. Can we get an actual potty too? I heard its best to train boys sitting down."

"Yeah, let's get two of these." Derek picked up a blue and green potty, and placed it in the cart. He then picked up another one, and put that in as well.

"Do you think we should have a set for downstairs too?" Meredith asked.

"Why? I think two potties, and two urinals are enough." Derek said annoyed.

"Yeah but I'm getting more and more pregnant with each day that passes. I'm not going to be able to run up and down the stairs." She complained.

Derek took in a deep breath. "Grab two more."

"Are you sure?" Meredith asked.

Derek grabbed two more potties without answering. He put them in the cart.



Meredith looked at Derek disgusted. She didn't say anything though.

"What's next on our list?" He asked.

Meredith placed a hand on her stomach. The baby was being very active.

"We need a triple stroller." She sighed.

"Okay."

Derek pushed the cart down the car seat aisle to cut through to the strollers. Half way down the aisle Meredith stopped and gushed at the pink car seats.

"Look, Derek. It's pink." She cooed.

"Meredith, we already have two infant car seats at home."

"Yeah, but those are green. This one is pink." Meredith pouted. She walked down the aisle, and looked at the other car seats. "This one is purple."

"Fine, which one do you like?" He asked.

"Um…the pink was is cute…"

Derek walked over to the box that contained the pink car seat.

"BUT the purple is cuter, and a better brand."

He then walked over to the purple car seat.

"But…"

"Meredith! Which car seat do you want? Pink or purple?" Derek was losing his patience.

"Purple, I like the purple one!"

"We're going to need another cart." Derek huffed.

He walked to the front of the store, and returned with another cart.

He picked up the box, and placed it inside.

"Ready to go look at the strollers?" He asked.

Meredith nodded.



They walked to the next aisle that had all the strollers. There were only a few that had three seats.

"Which one do you like?" Meredith asked Derek.

"Do we really need a new stroller?" He asked. "Why not just put the baby inside the Snugli?"

"That thing gets heavy after awhile, plus who is the Snugli going to be attached to?"

"Okay. Well what if we get the stroller that has the two seats and a part in the back for the third child. We can place the car seat across it." Derek suggested.

"Is that safe?" Meredith commented.

"Well, we can put one of the boys back there. They can sit or stand."

Meredith thought about it for a while. "Is it better than just getting a three seated stroller?"

"We will get more use out of this one."

Meredith nodded. "That's fine. Can we get the black one? It matches the car seat better."

"Sure, we'll come back and get it after we are done shopping."

"Can we look around before we get the beds?"

"Okay."

Meredith pushed the lighter cart down the aisle of playpens. She nearly made Derek run into her when she stopped short at a pink play pen.

"Can we please get this?" Meredith begged.

"Meredith, we already have two at home."

"But they are blue, plus when we go on vacation we're going to need to bring three."

"No we won't because the boys will be three years old by then and we are buying those beds today. Remember?"

"Yeah, but it's pink."

"Fine. Just add it to the cart." Derek snapped.

Meredith glared at him. "Is it too much that I want to buy stuff for our daughter? She doesn't have anything!"



"She's not born yet!" He fought back. "And she can use the stuff from the boys!"

Meredith pouted.

Derek sighed. There was no winning today. He bent over and picked up the box, and then placed it in the cart.

Meredith smiled. "Thank you."

Derek didn't say anything. Meredith gave him another look, and then walked towards the swings and bouncers.

"Derek…"

"Let me guess?" Derek interrupted. "Is it pink?"

Meredith didn't say anything back to him. She picked up the bouncy chair and placed it in the car. She then moved on to the swings.

"Bed, daddy?" Cameron asked.

"As soon as mommy is done we'll get the beds."

"Soon?" Daniel asked.

"Probably not." Derek answered.

Meredith pretended to ignore them, and kept on shopping.

As soon as she found a pink swing, she smiled. She didn't ask Derek for help this time. Instead she bent down as far as she could and lifted it up.

"Meredith, you shouldn't be lifting." Derek lectured.

Meredith shrugged him off, and placed it in the cart.

"Meredith…talk to me."

Meredith continued to walk until she got to the beds.

She lifted the boys out of the carts, and told them to pick whichever one they liked.

"Choo choo." Cameron said. He ran over to the Thomas bed.

Daniel walked around. He looked at every bed. He then pointed to a racecar bed.

"Tat one mommy."



"Good job guys. Are you going to sleep in them tonight?" She asked.

The boys nodded.

"Would you like to pick out a pillow?"

"Yeah."

The boys ran over to the character pillows, and they each picked one that they liked.

Meredith walked over to the salesman and pointed out the two beds to him. He told her that he would bring them up to the front in a few minutes. She also told him about the stroller.

"Come on boys. Let's get back in the cart, okay?"

The boys ran over to their mother and she put them in.

"Dank doo." Daniel said.

"You're welcome sweetie."

"Dank doo, Mommy." Cameron said.

"You're welcome."

"Why does mommy get all the credit?" Derek joked. "I'm the money maker in the family."

Meredith glared at Derek, and he soon regretted his words.

"Meredith…I didn't mean that."

Meredith didn't say anything. She grabbed her purse, and took the boys out of the carts.

"We'll be in the car." She said.

Derek came outside fifth-teen minutes later with a worker from the store. He opened the trunk to their new minivan, and folded the back seat. With the help of the store employee, they managed to get everything to fit. He got in the car, and started the ignition. He looked over at Meredith but she refused to look back.

"1,648 and thirty nine cents." He paused and looked at his wife for a reaction. "That's how much we spent today."

Meredith didn't say anything.



"I really don't understand why we had to spend that much." He admitted. "I mean we do have two of everything at home for the new baby. Just because its green and blue doesn't mean she can't use it. And six different potties?" He gave a little chuckle. "Why not just make them share?"

Meredith finally looked at him. "Well, you make all the money and you sure make enough of it so I would stop complaining if I were you."

"Oh, so now this is all on me? What does my salary have anything to do with it?" He snarled.

Meredith put her hand in her purse and pulled out a check.

"This is from the chief. It's what you made on your so called tour. I think this more than covers what was spent inside that store."

She handed Derek the check.

"Meredith…"

"No, Derek. Just take me home."

"Meredith…"

"Stop, Derek! You made ten thousand dollars when you neglected your family. I think I had a right to spend that money on my unborn child. You still have nine thousand left. Do what you want with it."

"Meredith…"

"Take me home, Derek."

Later that day after Derek had taken down the cribs and replaced them with the beds, and had set up all the potties, he sat down on the sofa next to his wife.

"I'm sorry." He stated.

"Derek…you need to change. I can't live like this. I thought we had it all together for once, but we don't. I'll be at Cristina's if you need me."

With that Meredith got off of the sofa, and picked up her bag that was waiting at the door. She said goodbye to Derek, and closed the door behind her.
