Tris' POV

"Happy birthday buddy!" I squeal walking into Mason's room. He smiles and says "Mama!" i pick him up and walk into Kayla's room. Tobias is sitting on the floor reading a book with her. I lean in the doorway with Mason on my hip and smile. He's a perfect father. "Go get him" i whisper to Mason setting him on the floor. He takes a few steps, stumbles, then gets up and jumps on Tobias' back. "Who ever could that be?" Tobias asked letting Kayla flip the page. Natalie comes up and wraps her arm around my legs. "Mommy? Will there be cake?" i laugh and so does Tobias. "You are your fathers daughter." i say taking her hand leading her to the kitchen. "So. Who's coming today?" she asks. It's a chilly mid-November day and we're having the twins first birthday party. "Uncle Caleb. Christina, Will, Cara, Uri, Marlene, Shauna, Sophia, and Zeke." i reply. "Did someone call for the gang?" i hear from the bottom of the steps. "URI!" Natalie yells jogging towards Uriah. "Hey short stuff!" he says twirling her around. "What would you guys like for lunch?" i ask. "Whatever the birthday boy and girl want" Shauna smiles. I walk up to Christina and laugh. We try to hug but our four month pregnant bellies deny us of that. "Well, i see how it is" she laughs. 

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Kayla and Mason, Happy birthday to you" we sing. Kayla and Mason stare at the small cakes in front of them with puzzlement. Mason is the first to dig in, getting almost none of it in is mouth. "He is yours Four" Zeke laughs. As Kayla puts her hand in hers she looks upset "Uh-oh" she squeals. I smile and say "You're ok baby" "So are we gonna get any?" Natalie says pulling on my shirt. I smile "Nope they ate it all" Zeke and Tobias look at me with sheer terror "NO CAKE?" they scream in unison. I crack up laughing "I'm just kidding gosh" I pull out another cake for the rest of us to eat and the look of terror changed to utter giddiness. I look at Shauna and we both roll our eyes. Caleb helps me hand out cake and takes forever to give Tobias his piece. He waits anxiously and i can't help but laugh. After cake we let the twins open their presents, or try at least. They mostly got toys, Mason got a lot of Cars themed things since he is obsessed with the movie, and Kayla got all things tiger because she loves Tigger from Winnie the Pooh. I smile and take pictures as she tries to make one bounce like Tigger. 

I put Kayla in my arms and bring her to her room. Picking out a Winnie the pooh book i start to read. Shortly after i flip the first page she starts to close her eyes. After turning her nightlight on and the baby monitor we keep just in case i leave the room and go to Natalie's. "Night sweetheart" i kiss her forehead and tuck her in. She gives me a hug and rolls over. When i walk out Tobias is waiting for me on the other side. "Hey pretty thing" he smiles wrapping his arms around my waist. I look in the oceans he calls eyes. "I can't believe their one already." i start tearing up. Stupid hormones. "I know seems like just yesterday i brought you off the net" he picks me up and carries me down the hallway and into our room. I stare in the mirror at my bulging stomach. It's not big yet just enough to show. "You look great" Tobias says leaning his head on my shoulder. "I have something for you" he raises his eyebrow as i go to my dresser. I pull out a small sized box wrapped in blue wrapping paper. "What's this?" he asks opening the box. I change and lay down ready for bed. "Read it once i'm asleep." after a few minutes when he thinks i'm asleep i hear him whisper it to himself "Baby gender reveals tomorrow." 

I wake up and call Christina. "You ready?" "Of course! Be over with everyone in a few hours" "Cool see you then" i smile and hang up. "You didn't tell me?" i hear Tobias say groggily from his side of the bed. "You know i hate surprises. That doesn't mean you can't have one." i kiss his cheek and go make breakfast. 

"Ready?" I ask. There's a large box infront of me and Christina. Both containing balloons specified to what gender baby we're having. "One. Two. Three" she and Will open their box and Tobias and i open ours. "IT"S A BOY!" Tobias shrieks showering me in kisses. "ANOTHER GIRL!" Will smiles twirling Christina. "It's a boy!" Tobias says in my ear so only i can hear. "Yup." i giggle. Everyone smiled and clapped for us. Except Caleb. He stood by the food and drinks and had a sad smile on his face. "Caleb what's wrong?" i asked walking up to him. "Nothing congratulations. Another mini Four." he smiles giving me an awkward hug.
