After bringing the boys home from the hospital, time went quickly and despite their dramatic entrance into the world, they were growing healthily. The Monday after thanksgiving was the opening night for Sophia's school play and Kurt and Blaine were meeting Rachel at the school with Burt and Carole. Finn was babysitting Fanny and Chris, while pregnant Tina and Mike wanted to babysitting practice so the twins were in their care for the night.
Kurt and Blaine had put the twins down for a sleep and were eating dinner with ten year old Sophia.
"How is school?" Kurt asked.
"I got a role in the school play." The ten year old beamed.
"Did you get Dorothy?" Blaine asked as the girl shook her head.
"We had to put down two characters and they gave me Glinda!" The girl said excitedly.
"Congratulations," Kurt hugged the girl. "You will be a beautiful Glinda."
"When is it?" Blaine asked.
"The week after thanksgiving I think." Sophia responded.
The family got into the theatre and when Sophia came out in her Glinda dress that Kurt put together for her and blonde wig, Blaine grabbed Kurt's hand. She was perfect, and Rachel just smiled at Kurt. After the show the girl came out and found her family.
"Was I good?" The ten year old still covered in glitter asked Kurt.
"Beautiful." Kurt hugged her.
"You were great." Blaine hugged the girl before Rachel and her grandparents did.
They went and got hot chocolates on the way home and were sitting in one booth all together.
"So you love show business?" Rachel asked.
"Yeah," The ten year old smiled. "It was fun out there but I might try like costumes or something next time. Like backstage stuff."
Kurt and Blaine had never pressured the girl into singing or performing. If she wanted to do it, it was up to her. They left soon after to find that Tina and Mike had easily taken care of the boys who were well and truly down for the night.

It was their ten year wedding anniversary a year later and they were going out for a night. Blaine's parents had come down to see the kids, and Kurt and Blaine used this as a perfect opportunity to have them babysit. Kurt was getting ready and Blaine was sitting in the living area, watching the two boys play. The boys looked very similar with them both having Blaine's olive toned skin (none of the three kids got Kurt's cursed extremely pale skin tone), Blaine's nose and Kurt's smile. Alex had dark brown curls just like Blaine's though and big blue eyes while Dalton had a dark brown version of Kurt's dead straight hair and Blaine's almond shaped hazel brown eyes.
"You do realise that your boys are playing with dolls right?" Michael Anderson asked as he and Blaine watched the boys play with Sophia's old dolls.
"They're just dolls dad." Blaine commented.
"I appreciate your life choices Blaine but you can't encourage the boys." Michael commented.
"Were encouraging our one and a half year olds to be gay by letting them play with the toys they pick?" Blaine asked, just to make sure he was on the right page. "They're just toys."
The older man got himself up and walked over to where Dalton was sitting with one of the dolls.
"Hey buddy," Michael crouched down and found an action figure in the toy box. "Why don't you play with this?"
"No." The boy responded, still played with his toy.
"Dad leave him." Blaine responded as Dalton got up, clutching the doll.
After a failed attempt to get either boy to give up the dolls, Kurt came out and was ready to go. They came back fairly late from dinner and the showing of Moulin Rouge that they found. Kurt and Blaine opened the boys bedroom door and saw they were fast asleep, Alex now suddenly clutching onto the Spider Man toy that Michael had been trying to force onto Dalton.
"Alex doesn't even like Spider Man." Kurt said quietly, looking at the curly haired boy.
"My dad thinks they should be playing with gender appropriate toys," Blaine whispered as Kurt shut the door. "He probably bribed Alex into it."
"They're not even two years old, why does it matter what toys they play with." Kurt said quietly.
"That's what I said." Blaine responded as they went into their bedroom and shut the door.
