Five Years Later

"But, mommy!"

I shook my head at my screaming daughter.

"No, Nessie. You cannot have another piece of cake. You didn't eat all of your vegetables."

She crossed her arms and pouted. I had to bite my lip to keep from laughing at Vanessa. That would surely cause my four-year-old to have a temper tantrum. I looked over at my husband to see him with the same expression.

"Listen to your mother, Vanessa. She knows what's best, even if you don't like it."

Vanessa got up and stormed away from the table. I rolled my eyes and gave Edward a pointed look. He held up his hands in defeat.

"Fine, I'll get her."

I smiled gratefully as he got up. I'd been playing bad cop for too long with our oldest child. As if on cue, the crying started. I sighed but smiled and put down my napkin. It sounded like E.J. was up from his nap. I walked into the baby blue room and went right over to the crib. He was standing up and had a red face from screaming.

I picked up the twelve-month-old and hugged him close. I loved my children so much. As soon as I started rubbing his back, he calmed down. I peeked at him to see he had fallen back asleep. I was surprised he didn't stay up, but we'd had a long day.

I set him down and quietly left the room to see Edward swinging Vanessa over his shoulder. She was shrieking with laughter and I covered my mouth, so I wouldn't make a noise. I didn't want to disturb this moment. Seeing the pure joy on my family's face was enough for me.

"We're going to Aunt Rosie's and Uncle Emmy's!" Vanessa sang.

I turned around and chuckled at her excitement. She had my eyes but with Edward's copper hair. E.J. was the opposite, with Edward's green eyes and my brown hair. Edward's amusement was clear on his face and he reached over to grab my hand.

E.J. was babbling along, which sounded like he was trying to sing with Nessie. We pulled into the long driveway and made our way to Rosalie and Emmett's home. As soon as we did, two children ran out of the front door.

Vanessa was already attempting to unbuckle her seat belt once she saw Lucas and Laura running out of the house. They were twins, quite the surprise to Em and Rose when they found out. The two of them walked out of the house right behind their kids.

I got out of the car and helped Nessie get out of her car seat. E.J. was also struggling to get out of his, so Edward helped out. As soon as I picked Vanessa up, I saw Alice and Jasper pull into the driveway. I waved and Alice smiled.

Vanessa ran inside and E.J. waddled behind his big sister. I watched them reach Emmett and Rosalie, so I turned to Alice and Jasper. Jasper was carrying their two-year-old, Peter, who seemed to be talking about something serious with his father.

Jasper busted out laughing while a very pregnant Alice walked over to us. We attempted to hug each other, which was difficult since she was eight-and-a-half months pregnant and I was six months.

"I don't know where our son gets this, Alice. He started calling me a 'shroom," Jasper stated.

Alice chuckled and Peter and looked at her son with pride. We all walked inside and Rosalie looked at me expectantly. Edward wrapped his arm around my waist and kissed my temple. Lucas, Laura, and Vanessa started making gagging noises. I stuck my tongue out at them.

"You guys will be happy to know that we're having another girl," Edward said with pride.

There were a few cat calls. Alice was clapping but suddenly looked shocked. Jasper nudged her and a slow smile spread to her face.

"Jasper, my water broke. The baby…he's coming."

Jasper went into super-father mode. Everyone went in a frenzy and I couldn't help just watching the mayhem. It may be hectic, but I knew none of us would change a thing.
