"Look, is that mommy" Austin gasps, kissing Alana's cheek "Say hi to mommy" He says, waving his hand at me and Alana coos, copying Austin and waving at me, making me giggle.

"Hi Love" I kiss her cheek, picking her up from Austin's lap.

"How was your day today?" Austin stands up, wrapping an arm around my shoulder.

"It was nice, how was yours?"

"Holding this place down was tough" He says dramatically "I don't know how you do it" He chuckles.

"Patience" I kiss his lips softly "And lots of it"

"I bet" He chuckles "So, I got a phone call today..." He trails off, and I look at him in confusion.

"What about?"

"California" He says, looking down.

"And? What was it about?" I ask impatiently.

"Well..." He sighs "I got the promotion!" He cheers, and I squeal, hugging him, avoiding hurting Alana.

"I'm so proud of you" I kiss his cheek repeatedly.

"Yeah, and it's just in time for Toby to start school, so we have until the end of this month to get out there" He says, looking back at Toby as he lays on the couch, watching TV.

"I'm so happy for you" I grin, and he places his hand on my hip, leaning to kiss my lips softly.

"I love you" He mumbles.

"And I love you" I smile "So, what should we do?"

"Well we need to pack, so we can get out of here" He chuckles "We have to go house hunting soon too, because I'm getting my name on a door, not a house to go with it"

"Alright, I'll call my mom?" I say as more of a question.

"Sounds good to me" He nods "When do you want to go down there?"

"This weekend is good for me"

"Good, me too" Austin nods "I'll go book us plane tickets"

"I can't believe you're moving to California soon" My mom sighs, sitting down on my couch.

"I know, but Austin got this promotion and it'll be really good for us"

"I know, but life will become so boring with only your father around" She sighs.

"I'm sorry mom" I laugh "But you love him"

"I do" She chuckles.

"Ready to go Babe?" Austin walks back into the house.

"Yeah" I nod "Toby, come say bye to me and daddy" I yell up the steps, hearing his feet patter across the floor.

"Bye Mommy" He wraps his arms around my neck "I'll miss you"

"I'll miss you too Baby" I kiss his cheek. He lets go and runs over to Austin, doing to the same to him.

"Let me see my baby girl" I hold out my arms, taking Alana from my mom "Mommy's going to miss her little baby" I kiss her cheek, and she coos, her hand grabbing my hair.

"Is that my baby girl?" Austin gasps, walking over to us "It is" He grins, poking Alana's stomach. I hand her to Austin, and he grins kissing her face "I love you Princess"

"I'll see you guys later" My mom waves, as we walk out of the house. We get into Austin's car and drive to the airport, going through security and boarding our flight to California. On the way there we discuss where we're going first and what houses are where, as well as the price range so we're all prepared.

"So, that was all of them, which one do you like?" Austin asks as we sit down at a table at a small cafe.

"I liked the one right on the water, perfect view, still seems safe for children" I list off "And a room for us at the other side of the house" I wink, and he chuckles.

"I liked that one too, or seemed pretty nice" He nods.

"So, that one?"

"I'll call him right now" He pulls out his phone, dialing the number of the realtor "Hi, it's Austin and Reagan... Yes we have.... We'll take it... Well we're shooting for the end of this month... That's perfect, thank you... You too, bye" He says hanging up the phone.

"So?"

"He said that the end of the month is good, and if we find furniture we like online to send it to him and he'll have it out in the house so it's ready for us when we get there"

"That's perfect"

"It is, god I'm so ready for this" He sighs happily.

"Me too" I agree, reaching across the table to slide my hand into his "There will be no drama, just us, and our little babies"

"I'm so excited"

"Me too"

;;;

Sorry for the short notice of the end of this book, it wasn't totally planned but I realized there's nothing else to actually write anymore

I love you all
