I’m home watching housewives “ yes still my fav show” when in walks Cass “ hey girlie” she says to me and rubs my stomach as she always do. “ let’s go have lunch I have big news to share” she says with a huge smile on her face, so I agree. Once at our favorite diner and seated I’m to impatient to wait for her to talk and I start with the grilling. So what’s so important to tell me it couldn’t wait for dinner this weekend? “ well” she began remember about a week back I was so exhausted and weak I thought that maybe I had the flu? I nose and signal for her to continue and she hesitates for a second but eventually continues “well turns out I’m six weeks along”! I must’ve left my brain back at the house because what she said doesn’t regist
Colton’s POV:Sitting in my home office just wrapping up a meeting for my new liquor bottle design and I’ve narrowed it down to three final sketches I will meet with each artist individually and choose the best candidate. However I seem to be having a really hard time coming up with a name. After that meeting I head out back to check on the setup for the baby shower we’ve never had one with the other kids didn’t see the logic in it when we had everything we could possibly need and the only reason I’m doing it this time around is just so she feels a little sense of normalcy. Alexa’s POV:I’m woken to the ringing of my phone and some loud banging out back that’s really starting to irritate me “hey girlie” I hear Cass say into the phone hey what’s up Cass “ I was just calling to make sure we’re still on for tonight” yes we are what time are you coming by “around six” okay great I’ll see you then and I disconnect the call and make my way into our on suite to get ready for the day.

WARNING!!!!⚠️ THIS CHAPTER MAY BE TRIGGERING FOR SOME!!!!Alexa’s POV: Sitting on my throne I can’t help the smile that comes to my face as we began with the gifts “ so much gifts” I’m relieved to have gotten all that I did from cribs to baby bottles to strollers and clothes and more all gender neutral of course. As the party continues the DJ asked me to come on stage for a toast and present from my husband a gift that he called my push gift turns out it was the late model Range Rover with third row seating I can’t wait to be able to go for a drive in a couple of months because my husband is dead serious about my bed rest. As the night comes to an end I’m both exhausted and elated to say the least so soon after a shower I’m out like a light.The next month goes by fast and I’m at a check up when the doctor informs me that the baby is in a bit of distress and he would be keeping over night because for reasons unknown I now have some high blood pressure and for the first time I’m actua
Colton’s POV:Worry that’s all I feel in this moment I’m worried because we’ve never had to face something so terrifying that’s completely out of my hands to be able to control the outcome. Nothing like life coming and slapping some humbleness in you. I’m hurting and not just for myself for her, I’ve always been able to protect her if thing for wrong how will I help her through something I’m not even sure I can make it through? Head to the sky I’m humble praying please keep us covered!Alexa’s POV:Laying on an operating table I can’t stop crying “I didn’t want this for you little one”. Head to the sky praying please keep us covered. Just as the doctor walks in and says alright people I know this isn’t what we planned for, but we are here now let’s gets through this all healthy and alive!I couldn’t agree more Doctor I hear my husband say the next thing I feel is the local kicking in separators going up and the doctor saying alright let’s began! I smell burning flesh not a pleasant sm
Alexa’s POV: Let me introduce you to our princess weighing two pounds we named her Audrey which means strong and she is, I took her first experience in the world and gave it a powerful meaning so Audrey which means strong is her first name and Camilla which means fighter is her middle name my STRONG FIGHTER Audrey Camilla Smith welcome to the world baby girl to the moon and beyond.I’ve been in the hospital for a week now and I’m finally ready to head home, however I don’t feel as excited to be going home and I know it’s because I have to leave Audrey behind for now, but she will get strong and soon be home where she belongs.As Colton pulls into the driveway the door opens and out runs three little ones who are beyond excited to have us home finally. “Mom where’s the baby” my little Jace asks he would be the one to notice that the baby isn’t here with me I release a long sigh and say come on inside everyone let’s have a talk. Once I’m seated inside with the help of Colton due to th
Alexa’s POV:Two months later, yes I said two whole months so I’m turn I guess you can say two months and three weeks this place has been my second home. I know every nurses name on every shift who’s working on what day I’ve even made a couple of friends who I’m sure will be around for a long time. It’s amazing what you will bond over in the NICU. I’m so excited a car seat test is the only thing standing in between us officially being able to take our Angel home.So currently we’re at 6 1/2 ILB’S and 4 ounces down I’m so proud of her she is really my little twin I can’t believe it. She is however on a special milk to control the acid reflux but other than that she is as healthy as a horse. …………..A few hours later………………….We’re headed home with our Angel safely in her car seat with no breathing issues happiness is an understatement of my emotional state right now.As we pull up I notice my brothers car my parents and a few friends as well. So much for a relaxing evening with the famil
Alexa’s POV:Another week goes by pretty smoothly motherhood this time around I have to say I’m a little more prepared for from the sleepless nights to immediately putting Audrey on a sleep schedule, and from the wanting to pull my hair out to waking up every morning styling my hair. I have successfully gone from the stressed out new mom look to the hot mom of four. “Two pats on the back”! I can honestly say I’m enjoying it a lot more this time around. Audrey is now almost taking a whole six ounce bottle without any issue’s and hardly throwing up anymore. She has her upcoming two week check up I can’t wait to see what she weighs now, she has gotten significantly heavier and I couldn’t be more happier than I am right now. She was born the smallest, but she is turning out to be my most healthiest baby yet!So I’m guessing this is what everyone is saying when they say the best moment in motherhood is right at the beginning, they just failed to mention it only comes the third time around
Alexa’s POV:I’m pacing around the halls like a crazy person jumping up at every door sound with the hopes of hearing some good news I’m really excited about becoming an aunt and God Mother a roll I intend to honor very seriously. About four hours later I hear it faint but I can hear it the sound of baby cries, but wait………why, why all the doctors rushing to her room if the baby is crying and……………..Robby a nurse just not so nicely escorted him out of the room! My legs move before I know what’s happening. Robby what’s wrong, how’s Cass? All he does is looks at me with a grief stricken face and tear filled eyes and shaking is head in the negative repeatedly say “but she was fine”! I ask again Robby what happened to Cass!! That’s when he snaps out of it and really vegans to cry and drop to the floor. I assume the worst and can’t help but to do the same and I do I cry until there is nothing left in me to cry. I pull myself together and call my husband to inform him and also my parents and
Jasmine’s POV:So the boys are now six months old and growing stronger every day. I must admit I see why Jace mom said no nanny for the boys motherhood is amazing. They are babbling and trying to crawl it’s so amazing to watch and Jace is loving every minute of being a dad. At about two o’clock my phone rings “private number”? I ignore the call and continue with putting the boys down for a nap. No nap leads to cranky babies and we don’t want that. Once they’re down I start prepping my dinner spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread I’m rolling my meatballs when my phone goes off again and again private number so again I ignore the call. Two minutes later I receive a voicemail “hey Siri play voicemail on speaker”! Ciao Mia piccola principessa mafioso! It is your father calling I don’t know if your mother told you or not, but daddy is coming home soon and I can not wait to finally meet you. Oh and my handsome grandsons as well. I hope that man of yours is planning to make an honest wom
Jasmine’s POV:So yesterday I had my six week check up and the doctor gave the all clear to resume normal activity thank goodness for a minute there I thought I would die sleeping next to a naked Jace can you imagine my dilemma. I’ve decided to surprise him tonight with some very pretty sleep wear I have goose bumps just thinking about it. I place a call to Jace’s mom and ask if she wouldn’t mind keeping an eye on the boys and she’s more than happy to oblige. I drop the boys off at about five in the evening giving me enough tim to cook and shower and shave before he gets home with just enough time to spare. At about eight p.m. I receive a call from Jace asking if he should pick up dinner and I decline and tell him to hurry home. Just as I make it to the kitchen the oven timer goes off and I’m loving the aroma in the air. Ahh Alfredo and garlic two of my most favorite foods. I made a spinach Alfredo with mushroom risotto and oven roasted garlic chicken. I pull out the white wine from t
Rachel’s POV:Once I’m seated in the car my husband looks to me and asks, so how is she doing? She as good as can be expected considering. He nods and puts the car in gear and pull off to home. We arrive and once inside my thoughts consume me. Thinking of everything I suffered because of him. At fourteen he made me a woman before I was ready and at sixteen he made me a mother before I was ready and he would always appear at the oldest of times throughout my life up until he went to jail. Always letting me know to never date or entertain the opposite sex or he would get rid of them so I was always afraid to have a normal life. When it was my sixteenth birthday he somehow got into my room in the middle of the night and raped me again. I ended up pregnant and I was told not to abort the baby or he would kill me so you can understand my fear at the time. That man has haunted my dreams, life, and nightmares since I was fourteen and I never wanted that for my Jazzy bell. I only put her up
Jace’s POV:I’m looking at the mother my kids my future wife sleep and my heart begins to ache I won’t let history repeat itself no that won’t happen not again. If her so called biological father is some kind of threat to my family than I will take every precaution out there to Protect them by any means necessary. I place a call to Conner asking him to find a judge and draw up restraining orders for both my boys Jazz and myself. He agrees with no questions asked that’s my brother for you loyal beyond belief. I hang up and place a call to Johnny and ask him to arrange a meeting with a couple of the top security firms in the world and he give the affirmative and asks if everything is okay. I tell him everything and he offered any help possible. Of course we’ve all heard of the Italian mafia and the king, but it’s been understandably quite from them for oh I don’t know let’s say a good twenty something years. I know convenient right. I sigh strip down and climb into bed and wrap my arms
Jasmine’s POV:When I finally came to my parents we’re still there and I noted that Jace was also there looking worried. I slowly made a move to sit up Jace handed me a glass of water which I took and drank thankful for the cool beverage. As I look around I remember what caused me to pass out in the first place and begin to frown. Jace looks at me and asks what’s wrong with me so I tell him everything. I turn to my mother and ask her who my father was and why she just didn’t keep me? She looks hurt and says I’m so sorry Jazzy I was so young and to be raped by him didn’t help. I would have loved to keep you, but I couldn’t raise you on my own I had no income baby I’m so sorry please forgive me? Forgiveness is the furthest thing from my mind right now. Who’s my father? At that I literally see the color drain from her face and she proceeds to beg me not to make her tell me. She then tells me my life is better off not knowing who that evil man is. Please baby don’t make me tell you it’s f
Jasmine’s POV:I’m looking in on the boys when I begin to think, think about life being a mom and my mother and father and My foster parents and I wonder why they never adopted me they raised me from the time I was ten, but never took the time to adopt me. As I look at my boys and now the love I have for them is close to the love they have for me so why wouldn’t they just make it official? I’ve always wanted to know, but I never built up enough courage to ask I think I’m ready to ask the questions and except whatever the answers may be.Just as I come out of my thoughts Jai starts to cry for his feeding and Jay isn’t far behind so Jace comes into the room and grabs Jai while I take Jay and we both begin feeding and changing both boys and as we’re burping them they both fall back to sleep in our arms. We lay them side by side in the crib and slowly exit the nursery taking the other half of the monitor with us. We did the nursery’s in Winnie the Pooh and tiger them we just have them bot
Jasmine’s POV:So let’s officially introduce our boys both weighing an even seven pounds our first born came into the world at seven twenty p.m. we named him Jayron Colton smith and our second born came into the world at exactly seven twenty seven p.m. we named him Jairon Colton smith. Welcome to world my princes’ mommy and daddy love you both so much! Oh for the answer to Jace’s proposal here’s your flashback.…………Flashback to yesterday………………..I sit and wonder why I can’t just say yes and there’s my answer I grab ahold of his hand and look him directly into his eyes because I need him to hear me and not what he wants to hear. Jace I love you you know I do, but I sigh this I gesture around the room this is not what I had in mind when I think of being proposed to. And it’s not that I don’t want to say yes cause I do believe me I do, but I can’t not now and not when none of us are thinking clearly and both our emotions are running on a thousand so can you please do me a favor. Anything
Jasmine’s POV:So I’m officially due any day now bed rest has not been a fun experience to say the least. I lost my temper on more than one occasion. Jace has been so patient and loving towards me through the whole experience never once getting upset and if he was he never showed it. I guess he probably said I’m upset enough for the both of us. Just as my show finished up Jace come in informing me that his brother is coming over and he has to run out so Jacey is gonna stay here while they go to the meeting. I nod and he kisses me before Jacey comes in and flops down onto the bed grabs the remote and begins looking for a movie and she settles on meet the Fockers. When the movie is half way through she orders Chinese knowing it’s my favorite take out option. Shrimp lo main and fried chicken wings with sweet and sour sauce on the side my mouth is watering just thinking about it. Three movies a meal and desert later I’m having minor back pain and begin to cry out in pain. I call Jace and
Jasmine’s POV:I’m officially five months pregnant and we’ve been moved in for a month now and I love it. Jace has been working from home so the home office definitely comes in handy. He refuses to let me work still and he has basically put me on bed rest. I’m starting to loose my mind so I place a call to his mother and ask her to come by for a visit. She gave me her number at family dinner when I first met her and we’ve gotten really close since then. Jacey is also turning out to be a really great friend. We have an ultrasound coming up tomorrow to see what we are having. I did not want it to remain a surprise especially after the story his mother told me about being pregnant with him and his sister. And I will admit I am big to be five months so I’m a little afraid to find out. Pray for me people I’ll take one big baby over twins any day. Either way though I’m gonna love my baby no matter what. So I’m patiently waiting for mrs. Smith to come when my phone goes off and I look and se
