[bigbabymikey1062]

It's Amanda.

"Hello Dan. I won't stay long. I just wanted to drop off a present for the babies. It's so good to see you. Can I have a hug?"

[Danny]

Hugs her "mom come on. I rarely see you. Surely you want to spend time with your twins on their birthday"

[bigbabymikey1062]

"I thought it might upset you if I stay. Peter wanted to come but he's at a sleepover

Your mom said he could come over and spend the day with you tommorow. If you want"

[Danny]

I smile "yeah that would be great. Maybe I could take the twins and Joey and we could all go to the park together or something? Though I'm not sure how he'd feel about changing diapers if the twins needed one"

[bigbabymikey1062]

"Okay. I'll stay. I just wanted yearly upadates. How are you?"

[Danny]

Smiles "yeah I'm fine.  Just in my exam year at school so studying hard"

[bigbabymikey1062]

"That's great. I know you'll do well"

Ava crawls up to you

[Danny]

I smile at Ava and picks her up "hey birthday girl. You want to see your auntie Mandy?" 

[bigbabymikey1062]

Amanda gets nervous.

"Just call me Ms. Amanda. I don't want your mom to get uncomfortable"

She tries to hold Ava, but is nervous at first

"Hi sweet girl. Happy birthday

[Danny]

Dan smiles and has a flashback to how it was for Amanda when she first saw me.  

"See. She loves you. You're a natural"

[bigbabymikey1062]

"I guess I am. Can I come in? I have something I want to talk to you about after the party is over"

[Danny]

Dan looks at you and is nervous "yeah sure. Do you want to have a chat now? I'm sure Connie won't mind"

[bigbabymikey1062]

"No. It can wait. I want you to enjoy your day with your brother and sister"

[Danny]

"But if it's important shouldn't I know?"

[bigbabymikey1062]

"Ok. Peter wants you to come to his school for Family Day"

[Danny]

Looks at you and smiles " of course. I'd love to" 

[bigbabymikey1062]

"Great. I'll let him know. He's told all the kids at school about his big brother"

The doorbell rings.

Maddie, Cody and Rita join the party.

Connie and Angie start gathering everybody for the birthday song and cake.

[Danny]

Dan smiles and hugs Amanda "thanks.  You know how much you and Peter mean to me. Maybe I could bring Harry along so Peter could get to know him?"

[bigbabymikey1062]

"You'd have to ask your mother. I don't have a problem with it"

Looks at Ava

"Let's go enjoy your party, birthday girl"

She puts Ava in the high chair next to Harrison and everybody sings happy birthday

[Danny]

I nod "I'm sure she won't mind. You're family and my family is my world" 

I join in the singing and the twins smile happily and i help them blow out the candles on the cakes.  

[bigbabymikey1062]

Connie laughs.

"Dan, what did you wish for?"

[Danny]

Dan smiles "I was just helping. It's the twins who make the wish"

[bigbabymikey1062]

"I think they're a little young to know what's going on.

Oh honey, I totally forgot. The parent munch is today. Can you watch the kids for us, Justin is upstairs. He can help.

We'll only stay a few minutes"

[Danny]

Smiles at you "yeah sure. I think it's nap time anyway. Be as long as you want. I'm sure we'll Be fine"

[bigbabymikey1062]

"Ok. An afternoon nap can't hurt. You can put the babies upstairs and spread out a blanket on the floor for the other kids.

We won't be long"

Ron, Angie, Connie and Amanda leave

Harry and Ava nap upstairs

While Joey, Cody and Maddie remain downstairs
