"Okay come on sweetie crawl to mommy. You can do it. Come on I know you can do it," Evie told her baby as it was now about three in the morning and Mal had woken up in the middle of the night again. Evie knew that she wasn't supposed to force it, but after having that talk with those other moms she just couldn't stop worrying about it.

She had talked to Carlos about it earlier after they had stolen Mal back from Celia and put the kids to bed, but Carlos didn't seem to be worried claiming that all babies were different and she shouldn't worry about it, but Evie had always been a worrier. Evie sighed when the small baby just sat on her stomach not even trying to push up.

"Come on sweetie please crawl for mommy," Evie practically begged out, but Mal just looked up at her and started crying making Evie sigh as she knew Mal wasn't going to crawl. She just picked up her baby as she was about to place her back into the crib, but the baby just started sobbing more as she began to stick her fingers in her mouth which she had been doing recently. She had also been more fussy recently as well.

"Aww what's wrong sweetie?" Evie told her baby and the small baby just kept crying and rubbing at her cheek with one hand and chewing on her other making Evie a bit concerned as that wasn't normal behavior for Mal.

Evie just carefully took the baby's small hand out of her mouth and smiled when she saw the two tiny white teeth starting to pop out on the bottom of her gums. "Aw no wonder you're so cranky. You're finally getting some teeth. It's okay mommy will make it better," Evie told her fussy baby as she made her way to the fridge and pulled out one of the cold baby teether toys that she had put in the fridge as she knew Mal should be teething soon.

Evie then picked one up and handed it to her baby who quickly grabbed it and placed the teether in her mouth as she calmed down a little. She was still fussy, but she wasn't as fussy now that she had the toy.

Evie smiled a little as she knew Mal was finally teething even though she knew teething was going to be torture for all of them because Mal was going to be in a lot of pain. She was happy though because most babies her age already had a few teeth and she still had none until now.

After giving Mal the teether toy Evie carefully made her way to her bedroom that she shared with Carlos as she turned on her lamp by her side of the bed and carefully placed Mal on the bed as she didn't want to leave Mal alone in her crib while she was crying in pain from her teething.

Carlos just groaned when he saw the lamp on and heard his daughter in his bed. He loved his baby girl, but he knew that she needed to sleep in her own crib, but Evie always found a reason to keep Mal in their bed halfway through the night.

"Evie it's 3:30 in the morning. Why is our baby in our bed again," Carlos practically whined out as he had been sleeping, but Evie woke him up by turning on her lamp and placing their baby in their bed. Evie just smiled as she held the crying baby and rocked her.

"Okay so I know I told you last night that I would stop bringing her in here, but I have a valid reason as to why she should stay with us tonight," Evie told Carlos who just sighed as Evie said that every night. "Evie, you say that every night. How is tonight different," Carlos told his girlfriend and Evie just removed Mal's teether.

"It's different because look at that she's finally teething," Evie told Carlos and Carlos immediately perked up as he saw the tiny teeth starting to pop out as he reached over and felt them not believing it with only his eyes.

"Oh my gosh! You're right! She's finally getting teeth! I was starting to worry about that!" Carlos practically screamed out in happiness as he had been secretly just as worried as Evie, but he knew that Evie was a worrier and he didn't want to make her more worried.

Evie just laughed as she began to massage the crying baby's gums with her finger easing her pain a little. "I know me too but this process is going to be challenging because teething hurts and now that she's starting to get teeth I think it's time we take her to see a dentist, so that we can make sure that her teeth are coming in right and we can ask questions and stuff. Oh and we should probably get Dizzy and Celia in to see one too since I don't think they have been recently," Evie started to ramble out to Carlos who just laughed as he loved how prepared Evie always seemed to be.

"Okay Evie relax. We can make an appointment for her and the other kids later it's really late right now," Carlos told Evie who just nodded, but stopped when she realized another thing. "Okay you're right, but I think we should also get them all doctor appointments too because Mal could really use one and so could Dizzy and Celia because they haven't had one in a while and you're supposed to take kids in every six months," Evie rambled out again and Carlos just nodded as he pulled Evie close to him.

"Shh it's okay Evie. We can take care of all of those things tomorrow since we're on winter break from school. Now just try to get some sleep and I can stay up with Mal tonight. We can take shifts since you're right this process is going to be hard," Carlos told Evie as he didn't like seeing her stress and he wanted to help her.

Evie's eyes immediately widened as she listened to his words. "Oh my gosh! It's winter! That means Christmas is coming up soon and we're not prepared at all! How could I forget about Christmas!" Evie screamed out in panic and Carlos immediately pulled her back to him and she laid her head on his shoulder.

"Shh Evie it's okay we still have time. We get the whole month off and winter break just started which means we have like a month to prepare don't worry we will get it done. Now just relax okay get some sleep and tomorrow or should I say today we can make them appointments for everything they need. And after that we can focus on Christmas okay. Now get some sleep my beautiful queen I love you," Carlos told Evie as he hated seeing her freaking out and stressed.

Evie just smiled as she nodded. "Okay and you're right. Thank you and I love you too my handsome and amazing king good night," Evie told Carlos as she began to drift off. Once Evie fell asleep Carlos smiled as he carefully moved his peaceful girlfriend after kissing her forehead and then picked up his fussy teething baby.

"Okay my little puppy let's let mommy sleep in peace. Come on dada has something he wants you to try," Carlos told his baby as he picked her up and placed her in her high chair in the kitchen. Now that she was starting to get teeth he felt it was time to start introducing some solids.

Carlos just picked up the box of strawberries as he mashed them up and brought them over to his baby. "Okay my little pup I think you're ready for some food. Now open up here comes the airplane," Carlos told his daughter as he tried to feed her but Mal just kept crying as she continued to chew on her teether.

Carlos smiled when he got an idea as he found one of the fruit pacifier teethers that Evie had bought one day when they were at the store. Carlos thought it was useless and wouldn't work, but it was worth a try. He just filled the pacifier top with some cut up strawberries and then sealed it up as he handed it to his baby.

Carlos was surprised when she began to put it in her mouth and chew on it as she smiled and continued to chew on the strawberries in her teether pacifier. Carlos just smiled as he loved seeing his baby eating real food.

"Okay I think that's enough strawberries," Carlos told his daughter as he tried to grab it from her, but she just pushed his hand away as she continued to chew on it making Carlos laugh as it seemed his baby found her favorite food.

"You love those strawberries huh. Well I guess that's a good thing. Come on let's go watch some Sesame Street while mommy sleeps since you know how mommy feels about that," Carlos told his baby who banged on her high chair in excitement with one hand while the other held her teether pacifier full of strawberries.

Carlos just laughed again as he picked her up and placed her on the couch with him as he turned on Mal's favorite show. When Evie woke up in the morning she smiled as she found Carlos passed out with their sleeping baby.

"Aw that's so cute," Evie cooed out as she took some pictures with her phone. A few minutes later Dizzy and Celia got up as well and Evie immediately shushed them as she pointed to Carlos and Mal who were both sleeping making the two preteens smile as well. She then sent them to get ready as she got ready herself deciding to let Mal and Carlos sleep a little more as they hadn't gotten much sleep with Mal's teething.

Finally about an hour later Carlos woke up and Evie smiled as she picked up Mal from him as the baby woke up too. "Hey there sleepy head. Did you have a nice sleep. I didn't want to wake you up because you two looked so cute, but you should get ready because we have 6 appointments today," Evie playfully told Carlos and he immediately woke up after that.

"What! Six appointments! How!" Carlos screamed out in shock, making Evie laugh as she looked at her shocked boyfriend while kissing her baby's forehead, making the baby giggle a little as she chewed on her teether toy again.

"Yup six appointments. We have a dentist appointment for each kid and a doctor's appointment for all three kids as well, so go get ready today is going to be a busy day," Evie told Carlos, making him look at her like she was crazy. He loved her, but she had such high expectations sometimes.

"Evie how are we supposed to make 6 appointments all in one day!" Carlos practically screamed out and Evie just laughed as she looked at Carlos. "We can do it! I believe in us and besides I already made them all, so go get ready! We can't be late!" Evie told Carlos as she practically pushed him to their room to change.

Once Carlos was getting ready Evie went to the nursery as she got Mal ready. "Your dada is silly sometimes huh. Now let's get you ready," Evie told her baby as she changed her and got her ready.

"Alright let's go!" Evie called out after she finished getting Mal ready and everyone else was ready as well. Dizzy and Celia just sighed as they looked at Evie and Carlos. "Do we really need to do this," Celia asked Evie who just smiled and nodded as she opened the door and headed towards the car. "Yes we do! Now let's go!" Evie called out and the others just groaned knowing they were in for a busy day.
