"Part nine

He looked at me like i lost my mind

"What?" I asked

"What the  hell are you doing?" John said

"I'm kidnapping you" I said then opening the car door and practically shoved him into the car, I ran around to the other side and jumped into the car and we took off.

few hours later, we were still driving through connecticut

"Can we stop? please?" John whined squirming

"We're almost there" I said making a turn

"I gotta go!" John said hopping around

"I knew you shouldn't have drunk that massive soda" I said going into Mom-mode

"Are you gonna stop or am i gonna have to pee the seat?" John said

"Alright Alright" I said pulling into the gas station

he ran in blinfold and all, i watched him and realized i should have taken the blindfold off because he ran SMACK! into a plate glass window

"Oh god" I said turning away

"FREAKING MIRROR!" John yelled as he yanked off the blindfold and opened the doors

It was so funny because he was holding his face and trying to get the door open.finally he got the door open and i was trying not cry laughing, he came out about five minutes later and i was still laughing

"It's not funny" He pouted getting into the jeep

"You wanna bet" I said wiping my eyes

"Do i have to put this thing back on?" He asked holding out the blindfold

"Funny..you said that on our wedding night?" I said smiling

"That was a totally different scenerio and you know it  !" He said

"Oh hush" I said putting the blindfold over his eyes

We drove for another two hours, well i talked, he nodded and then would screw around the radio althought since he couldn't see the buttons and would constantly hit the volume button and deafen me.

We  finally reached the cabin, I ran around the side of the jeep and opened the door

"Can I take off the blindfold ..please?" John asked

"No..I've got to get the house set up" I said helping out of the car

"So what am I supposed to do while your doing that?"John asked grabbing onto my neck

"You're gonna sit on the porch and listen to the waves of the ocean" I said leading him to a chair on the porch

"Your crazy you know that right?" John said sitting in the chair

"Yes but that's why you love me" I said opening the front porch door

I ran around putting roses petals  all around the tile floor and lit candles then set the table with our wedding china, then ran upstairs to quickly shower and get dressed in my new Prada dress that finally fit after three months of starving myself and not having the time or energy to eat.

I slipped the dress over my head and quickly brushed my hair which had grown considerably since Bailey was born and ran back downstairs.

I opened the front to get John, there he was sitting like Ray Charles waiting for a tennis game to start.

"Nik?" John asked

"No Gina Lollabridgda" I said taking his  hand  and bringing him in the house.

I left him leaning against the doorway and quickly got into position, Hands on my hips looking seductive.

"Can I take off the mask now?"? John asked tugging at the blindfold

"Yup" I said watching him take it off.

"WOW!" John whistled

"You like?" I twirled around showing off my dress

"I love it" John said walking over to the table and kissing me on the head,"I can't believe you did this!"

"I just figure we could use some time together" I said sitting down at the table but for some reason,John wasn't sitting" It's ok..you can sit"

"Oh my god, your pregnant aren't you?" John said his eyes flashing

"What?! No!" I said jumping up

"Yes that's why your doing this, isn't it?" John said

"No! I just thought it would be nice to be alone, so we could talk about something besides the kids but i guess that was a stupid idea" I said blowing out the candles and running upstairs to the bathroom and slamming the door.

"NIC..WAIT?!" John called chasing after me.

"No why would you assume i'm pregnant just because i thought of doing something nice for you that doesn't involve diapers and childbirth but i guess that was a dumb idea." I shouting through the bathroom door.

I sat down on the toilet seat but made sure i put the lid down..

great 300 dollar dress and i get to show it off to the shower curtains.

I also forgot to lock the bathroom door behind me, Because John opened the door and kneeled down in front of me.

"Look I'm sorry, It just came out and I didn't mean it, I'm thrilled you decided to surprise me now let's get downstairs and eat that dinner before it gets cold" John said taking my hand and leading me back downstairs.

We ate the spaghetti and i had just handed him the rolls when a question popped into my mind that i had to have answered.

"John, Can  i ask you a question?" I said looking down.

"Sure..anything honey?" John asked

"Would it be so be so bad if i did get pregnant again?" I asked biting into a roll

"No, i just thought that with  Maggie and Bailey being less than a year apart, we'd wait awhile before trying to have another baby" John said stopping to sip his wine.

"Really?" I looked up

"Yes.I'll make you a deal if we can get both Bailey and Maggie out of diapers without killing each other, we can try for another baby deal" John said leaning forward to kiss me.

"Deal" I stood up and kissed him

ONE YEAR LATER

It had been an interesting year, with Bailey being born, we had even more to celebrate when I got promoted to Senior editor at Cosmo and John and Vin's Skate store had grown so much, they expanded to a warehouse downtown,where business was flying again..

Did i mention i was pregnant again?

Yup, I know we said we'd wait until both the kids were out of diapers but well too much champagne and a weekend vacation to vegas i think that's enough said

We found out We were having another girl, John had come with me to all the doctor's appointment,"because one more surprise could potentally kill me" i quote.

We had settled on a name soon after we found out, I had loved the name Olivia after the main character on Law and Order:SVU and John had picked Rose after the flowers we had our wedding.

Maggie had turned two in December and We'd had another one of our famous parties, combining christmas and her birthday.

This time it was though Bailey's turn to have a first birthday party

Maggie was very good with Bailey, she didn't hit or try to hurt him..well there was the one time..

Bailey was about eight months old, John and I were in the kitchen trying to figure out how We could possibly take care of three kids without hiring a nanny when i went back to work.

"Are you sure you want to go back to work?" John asked

"I have to unless you know of some rich relative about to die" I said getting up and getting a soda nearly stepping on Maggie, who was playing on the floor.

"Maggie, Sweetie, why don't you go play in the living room with Bailey?" I said kneeling down

"Bawylie in Plawy Pen" Maggie said with her tiny lisp banging on some pans

"I'm sure Daddy can take Bailey out of the playpen so he can play with you?" I said standing up

"Sure thing..Come on Princess" John led Maggie out of the Kitchen and came back a few minutes later.

"They're watching TV on the Couch" John informed me then sat back down,"Are you positive you have to go back to work?"

"Yes, now come on we have to figure out what to do with Maggie, Bailey and Olivia Rose?" I said sitting back

"Well Maggie's going to be in pre-school for a few hours a day, Bailey can come with me to the shop and since Olivia Rose won't be born for another six months, I think we'll worry about that when the time comes" John pointed out

"True" I said getting up and going to the fridge getting Bailey his bottle

"Now the ultimate question is...how are we going to schedule date night around a toddler and two infants?" John said coming up behind me

"Well, i guess we'll have to figure something, won't we?" I said turning around kissing my husband

Suddenly there was a loud wail! Bailey!

"Oh my god!" I said running into the living room

"What happened Buddy?" John said coming behind me

Bailey was lying on the floor on his back screaming

"It's Ok baby, it's ok" I said picking him up off the floor

"Maggie,Sweetie..what happened to the baby?" John asked sitting on the couch next to Maggie

"He fell" Maggie said sliding off the couch

"Come back here please" I said pacing back and forth with the baby, who was now working his way down to whimper

"Maggie, we understand that Bailey fell, but how did he fall?" John said getting on the floor with Maggie.

"Bawliey went BOOM!" Maggie said guesturing with her hands

"Yes but how did Bailey go boom?" I asked shaking a rattle, Bailey temporaily  forgot he fell and watched the rattle with wide eyes

"I pushed him" Maggie said

"What?"  We said in unison

"Yup" Maggie said picking up a doll and playing with it.

"Maggie Elizabeth!" I said sitting in the chair ,"We do not push or hit each other in this house, do you understand?"

"Yes Mama" Maggie said shaking the doll

"Are you mad at Bailey, Princess?" John asked taking the doll from her

"Nope" Maggie said taking back the doll

"Then why did you push him?" John said picking up Maggie and put her in his lap

"Cause I wanted" Maggie said as if it were the most obvious thing in the world

"Somehow, i don't think that would hold up in a court room" I said standing up with Bailey,"John, put her in time-out"

"What? me?" John said

"Yes" I walked out of the room

"But why?" John whined  following me

"Look at it this way, the next time she decides throw someone off the couch, it could be Olivia Rose." I said sitting in the rocking chair

"Yah Alright" John grumbled and walked out to where Maggie was.

"Maggie, Sweetie, Baby, you need to go in the corner"I heard John said

"NO NO NO!" Maggie yelled

"Maggie! GET IN THE CORNER NOW!" John tried to be firm with her

"NO NO NO!" Maggie yelled even louder

"Please Honey..five minutes that's all" John begged her

"NO!" Maggie screamed one final time

"NIIKKKI!" John called

"Yes?" I called rocking Bailey, who was almost asleep

"I need help!" John said from outside the door

"Just Pick her up and bring her to the corner." I called back

"But why?!" John whined

"Just do it please" I said,"I swear Bailey, i don't know who's a bigger baby you or your Daddy"

"I heard that!" John said

" I said it loud enough..is she in the corner?" I asked

"Yes but she keeps throwning me deadly looks"  John said

"She'll get over it..just give her three more minutes and then let her go" I said standing up and putting Bailey in his crib.

"This Sucks" John said

"Well the both of you, suck it up.. it was bound to happen sooner or later." I said going into the living room where Maggie was sitting," Maggie, honey do you know why Daddy put you in the corner?"

"Yup" Maggie said playing with the silver cross on my necklace.

"Why?" I asked,"Look at Mommy"

"Cause i pushed Bawiley off da couch" Maggie said

"Yes, you could have really hurt him, promise Mommy you won't do that again" I asked her.

"I promise" Maggie said
