Mike didn't budge as Blythe slightly re-arranged positionings of herself and her daughter. Somewhere in the back of his mind he felt the pins and needles begin, but it didn't make any difference
(I'm thinking we should leave them sleeping until after the time-skip... just to make it easier)

"Our daughter is going to be the worlds most spoiled child once she gets here" Tommy said lightly, wrapping an arm around his fiance. The couple hadn't thought much about a wedding date yet, but it would definitely be after Melody was born. Thomas thought it would be cute to wait until she was two or three so she could be the flower girl for them... that was his opinion at least.

Letting out a soft sigh as she felt Maisy's body get heavier and her head droop onto her shoulder, Tessa let the corners of her mouth crease into a half smile as she ever so gently laid the toddler on the couch cushion next to her and her boyfriend before ever so lightly laying her head on Sirius' shoulder, her daughters sleepiness seemingly rubbing off on her.

Maisy tried to fight the sleep that was threatening to pull her into slumber, but the two year old could only last so long. About half-way into the movie, Maisy Lee Nicolls gave in and let sleep wash over her. The toddler was mildly aware of being moved but too tired to care.

Quickly reciprocating the kiss, Gar gave her a soft smile, a happy gleam in his eye as he glanced at her eyes then back at the road as he started to drive again, only to pull into a parking lot less than ten minutes later and turn off the truck. Hopping out with an excited step, Garret shut the door and walked over to his bride-to-be, opening Alex's door and offering her an arm.

"How was your trip love?" he asked after a few welcome minutes of silence with just the sound effects from their sons. It was hard to believe these tall rascals were born just six years ago, only a few months after Eli had turned eighteen and five days before his girlfriend turned eighteen.

"It the worlds biggest most gigantus humongousest tower ever!" Aiden exclaimed excitedly as he stepped back to admire his 'building'. If ever he couldn't become a cowboy like his daddy, maybe he could work in construction.

"Monster Jam!!!" Bentley yelled loudly as he sent two trucks rolling right at each other as quick as possible. Blinking in astonishment when there was no collision, Bent tried it again, slower... the little orange truck went under the big black one! That didn't make any big, fun booms!

Dan looked down at Jin lightly "I think this is her long day, probably about two hours... I think I'm just going to see is Zaria wants me to pick up Rosemary on the way and maybe she can bring them home. I'd like to spend some time with my wife" he said lightly, kissing her nose softly before swooping Carly up as she came running back out to them happily, her duffel bag that was as big as her dragging on the floor behind her.
A few minutes later Dan had pulled out his phone to text Zaria
-Hey, mind carpooling the girls around today? I can drop 'em off at the gym if you can bring 'em home- he clicked the send icon and waited on a reply as he gave Mugsy a pat and let out a content sigh.

Coming out about fifteen minutes later, Carly had changed into her workout outfit, this time opting for a long sleeved leotard and her favorite gymnastic and dance blue sparkly shorts, shoving the clothing she had been wearing into her overly large duffle bag that she pulled behind her as she ran down the hall in her new cupcake sneakers and french bulldog socks. Carly laughed as her dad caught her and swung her up in the air before placing her down and going to text Zaria. Looking up at Jin when her dad walked away she gave a toothy grin "When will brother be here?" she asked, pointing to Jin's stomach before launching right into another two questions "Can I play wif Rosie today? ... and can I have candy and cake and muffins for dinner today mommy?" she asked, trying to give her mom the biggest puppy dog face ever.

"I certainly don't need to be told twice" he smirked before taking a large bite of pizza into his mouth. Everything felt right when they were all together. Sure, things weren't perfect, there were some financial struggles with Ash's unsteady salary depending on how he does in rodeos and Anita's salary from teaching giving them plenty during the year but not as much over the summer, but he wouldn't change anything. His wife and daughters were all he really needed if it came down to being asked... that was probably never something anyone would have guessed from Ash.

Smiling brightly when Helen offered a ride, Kelsey gave a little hop and clapped before raising her arms to climb onto the bestest ever older sister in the world's back! "Tank you Ellie" she smiled happily, holding onto the older girl as Baloo walked next to the pair, making sure neither of the girls would get hurt the best way he could.

Dani smiled lightly when her boyfriend walked into the kitchen and sat down before pursing her lips in thought as she looked at all the ingredients she had gathered. Daniella typically let her instincts run her actions, not that it strayed her wrong, usually just the opposite happened... she just never really planned much and had trouble answering the plan type questions. "hmm... I think I have steak and antipasto in mind. How does that sound? she asked, turning the heat on the stove up as she put olive oil, salt and pepper into a pan to let it heat before turning her attention to the meat while her hands went to work, seasoning it with various ingredients.
In the meantime, Boogie settled himself on one of the other chairs at the table, paws tucked under him, tail curled tightly around him as he lay on his stomach, watching everything. Sashta had gone over, sniffed Shadow's shoulder fur for a moment then settled herself on a plump living room chair.

Jumping as Pepper gave a kick, the pony knew what was going to happen when Baylee had that box and was wearing those coveralls over her normal clothes... a leisurley ride wasn't on the list. "Calm down Peppy, it'll be done in one...two... three" she said calmly, giving the pony the final 'dreaded shot' on three. Once she was done she handed Pepper a peppermint and continued on: Patches, then Reddy, then clover, then Cocoa... another fiesty mare, then pal the usually laid back gelding. By five O'clock she only had Sabertooth the saint bernard, Collie the collie and Alfalfa the rabbit left to check, hopefully her loving husband would be home soon.

"I meant I think you should only close until monday, not all winter. I wouldn't want anyone out in this weather" Kiara said lightly as she pulled into the restaurant's parking lot and shut off the vehicle. Climbing out, Kiara opened her boyfriends door, patiently waiting for him.

Timmie bit her bottom lip and turned her head, pretending to look at a new fantasy book that actually did look interesting when in reality she was just trying to hide her blush. Timber didn't get like this often... and for some reason, when your face turns the same color as your hair you oddly don't look invisible... go figure. "um ... n-no, I don't know... I wasn't sure I was going to have a partner... I didn't really want to have to partner with Jared again... he was a creep last time and he's just gotten worse since I punched him for trying to 'make a move'" she said honestly, putting air quotes around her last few words. "But Emma seems like a nice enough classmate, I think you two would get along. Your choice"

As she entered the orphanage, Sarah was greeted by that unwelcome chill as she pushed open the old doors to the even older brick building that lay right in the middle of main street. Immediately she wished that her two horses could stay here with her, it got lonely here without anything. Walking into the 'comfort room', Sarah noticed the TV still wasn't fixed from when Kyle threw Ryan's favorite and only action figure through it. Sitting herself on one of the old couches that was more lumpy than comfortable now, Sarah pulled her legs up close to her body and stared out the window at the sinking sun.

Rounding the corner back to the orphanage, Ryan spotted Ollie's dad's truck and looked over curiously. Waving to Ollie as he walked past, Ryan walked back into the orphanage, maybe he could watch some tv if Kyle wasn't around to torture him. Seeing Mr. Fitzgerald he became more confused. Maybe he was here for Timber, that red-headed girl who was really quiet. Shrugging he walked over "Hi Mr. Fitzgerald. Why are you here?" he asked curiously, his dark eyes darting around the room as he waited for an answer.

Upon hearing a gasp from his wife, Logan jumped up, letting his fork fall back to the plate half way from his mouth. Walking over he gently held out his arms to her, head tilted and a worried expression plastered all over his face "Wat's wrong babe?" he asked lightly, trying to keep his voice steady and the worry out of it. "Do you think you'll be sick again or should I get you to the doctor now?"

Anna let out a quiet giggle as she swallowed the last of her meal and began to put the dishes away before pecking Maverick on the cheek "Alright, get there safe" she said lightly as she placed the dishes in the washer before walking over to Levi "C'mon Levi, let's get dressed and we can go do something special lately" the young woman said gently, offering a hand to her son. She couldn't wait until she and Mav were married one day, oh she dreamed about that day all the time!
It had only been about an hour, but Annie swore she heard Mav calling her. Walking to the front of the house, Anna smiled brightly when she saw him, her heart fluttering like a teenager on her first date. Tilting her head to the side, Anna looked at him curiously as she tugged on the sleeve of her robe, the outdoor chill sweeping into her bones for a moment. "What is it hon, everything okay? You don't seem upset so I'm guessing it's a good thing" she asked walking over to him.
