And obviously the baby has a bee themed hat.

Thanks to everybody who watched the livestream!
The baby is soft and warm in Cas’s arms.
She wriggles in her blankets, her tiny fists clutching onto his sleeve, and Cas’s heart lurches at the feeling of finally having her and holding her. He looks down at her round, freckled face as she huffs and gurgles at him, and only realises that he’s smiling when his cheeks start to ache.
Dean walks over, laying a gentle hand on Cas’s waist, his heart melting at the sight of the tiny girl staring up at her new daddy.
“Thought of a name yet?” Dean asks, rubbing his thumb back and forth on Cas’s shirt.
Cas shakes his head, still staring at the bundle in his arms.
“We sticking with ‘slime-monster’, then?” Dean grins, tenderly nudging the knuckle of his finger to the girl’s cheek.
“I think ‘baby’ will do for now,” Cas nods, then leans down to kiss the soft skin of her cheek. She squirms under his touch, but her hand still holds tight to his shirt, and Cas feels Dean press his own kiss to the crown of his head.
Cas thinks he hears a whispered ‘love you’, and smiles, thinking of everything that’s to come.
