After the emergency room incident, and finding out it was twins, Kurt and Blaine focussed on getting to twelve weeks before getting excited, or anxious. Twelve weeks came, just before they were off to Ohio for thanksgiving. They had told Sophia not to tell anyone, including Rachel, about the babies until either Kurt or Blaine had given her permission to.
"Is everything okay?" Kurt asked as the midwife waved the wand around Kurt's stomach.
"They look perfectly good to me." The nurse put the wand down and the men looked at the small peanut sized things on the screen.
"The reason you fainted most likely had to do with the sudden increase in hormones," She explained. "And not to do with the health of babies. I'd say you are 12 weeks exactly which brings your due date to June 4. But, with it being twins, I'd say that you're expected to have them at the start of May." The woman explained.
They managed to keep it a secret until they were all seated for thanksgiving in the Hummel-Hudson house two days later.
"How's everything in your life going?" Burt asked the two men.
"We kind of have some news," Kurt grabbed onto Blaine's hand and everyone's eyes turned to them. "We're – well, I am – 12 weeks pregnant."
"Oh my god!" Rachel almost got up to hug Kurt and Blaine before she realised he hadn't finished.
"Thirteen weeks pregnant to twins." Blaine added.
Everyone got off the table to congratulate the two men. When they were all seated, eyed had fallen on the nine year old.
"Are you exited to have two babies in the house?" Finn asked the girl.
"Yes," The girl smiled. "I am excited."
Everyone believed the girl, except Kurt. He knew that expression, and the fact that she wasn't telling the truth. He had done it to his dad for too many years.

For Sophia, boiling point came on her tenth birthday. Kurt was 28 weeks and definitely showing. The girl came into the kitchen on the Friday morning, all dressed and ready to go to school- expecting her fathers to say Happy Birthday.
"Hey," Blaine smiled. "I'll take you in about five minutes."
"Morning," Sophia grabbed her breakfast off Kurt, which on her birthday was pancakes. "I don't get birthday pancakes?"
"Oh my god." Kurt muttered as he looked at Blaine.
"You forgot my birthday." The girl commented.
"We'll give you a present after school and we have thing tomorrow with Aunt Rachel and Finn and the kids and Anna and Emily are sleeping over." Kurt was panicking.
"Don't worry about it." The girl said almost hastily, eating her breakfast.
They dropped Sophia off at school, and Blaine was focussing on the road and not his guilt. They had been focussing so much about the twins and making sure they were ready, they forgot their ten year olds birthday.
"I think we should get those boots she wanted." Kurt commented.
"Boots." Blaine agreed, focussing on the road.
They brought her boots, a cake for the next day, and the ingredients so that Kurt could make cupcakes with the girl for the sleepover. They picked her up after school her up and she opened her present in the car.
"Thanks." The girl half smiled.
Blaine had disappeared that evening for a bit and Sophia was left to make cupcakes with Kurt. The girl was measuring the ingredients and Kurt could just sense that she was still upset.
"What's wrong?" He asked innocently.
"Nothing," Sophia started mixing the batter. "Nothing is wrong dad."
"When you say it like that something is wrong." Kurt was lining the cupcake tin.
"You did completely forget my birthday," The girl wasn't looking at Kurt, though he could see the tears rolling down her cheeks. "I don't want you and Papa to forget me – I know it's stupid."
"It's not stupid," Kurt put his arms around the girl. "Papa and I will never forget you Sophia. You're our baby girl."
"Not if there is another girl in there." Sophia commented.
"You are my mini me Soph," Kurt turned her around. "Papa and I love you, and that doesn't change when the twins are born. Whether there is two more girls for us to love or not."
"Promise?" The girl asked.
"Promise." Kurt wiped some of the batter on the girl's nose and she started laughing.
Sophia had to admit that it was one of her best birthdays because she got to share it with all the people she loved and her closest friends. Rachel and Finn stayed until Christopher had fallen asleep on Blaine's lap and the three girls slept in the living area after watching a movie.

Two weeks after Sophia's birthday was the baby shower. Rachel organized the whole event at her house and convinced most of the new directions it was a perfect catch up time. Even though it had been 12 years since high school finished they were like a family and wouldn't miss an event like this. Blaine turned up with Sophia, and Kurt, who was now as big as he was when he was full term with Sophia.
"Why is she taking so long to answer the door?" Kurt grumbled as Finn opened it and everyone called surprise.
Kurt looked around the room and saw the faces of Sam and Mercedes and Tina and Mike and Artie and Santana and Brittany and so many more of them.
"I can't believe you all showed up." Kurt said as he sat down.
He opened up lots of toys and clothes as they were all talking and catching up. Soon everyone wanted the gender reveal cake. When Finn brought it out, Kurt was almost as nervous as he was with Sophia.
"You cut it," Kurt whispered in Blaine's ear. "I did it last time."
Blaine grabbed the knife and cut a piece of cake showing Kurt a split second before revealing blue, chocolate in the middle and then more blue.
"Twin boys!" Rachel exclaimed.
Either Kurt or Blaine could believe it. Two boys. They got home and Blaine was sitting in bed with a name book.
"Not this again." Kurt mumbled remembering how hard it was with Sophia.
"Well I had an idea-" Blaine closed the book "I name one of the boys and you can name the other one."
"That seems fair." Kurt responded kissing the shorter man.
