"We're here ladies."
You heard Justin's voice. Along with the engine coming to a stop. You rubbed your eyes before opening them slowly. You looked out the window, seeing the beautiful ocean in the distance. A smile appeared over your lips a few seconds later.
"We've got a sleepy head in the back."
Justin said, looking back at Rosie as she slept soundly. Her little cheeks looking so pinch-able.
You unbuckled yourself, grabbing your purse from the floor board.
You got out of the passenger seat, inhaling the nice breezy air. It smelled like vacation already.
You closed the door, walking around the car.
Justin got Rosie out, waking her up but she immediately fell back asleep as she tucked her head in the nape of his neck.
"Rosie. Baby come on. We're here." You said, tickling her side. She didn't even flinch, letting you know she was sacked out.
Justin held her with one arm, using the other to carry luggage. You grabbed as much as you could carry, following Justin to the house.
This is probably your favorite vacation spot you've been. It's so relaxing. And the scenery is to die for.
Pattie bought this house a few years back, and ever since it's been a tradition to come every year.

Justin walked up the stairs, reaching the front door.
He wasted no time twisting the knob, opening the white glass door.
"Momma." He said, looking around.
He set the bags down, still holding Rosie.
You set your purse and a few other things down, closing the door a few seconds later.
It wasn't long until your heard the sound of pattie's voice.
"Hey sweetie!" She said, pulling her son into a big hug. "Hey momma." He said, holding her close.
He kissed her cheek before pulling away, allowing you some attention as well.
"Hey Hun!" She then said, pulling you into her. She hugged you tightly before giving your tummy a rub.
"I bet you're so tired from that drive." She said, looking in your eyes.
"Yes. I'm exhausted." You said, feeling the tiredness begin to kick in. You thought road trips were hard enough, but adding pregnancy into the mix makes it 100 times worse.

"Rosie. Wake up." Justin said, bouncing her body gently. Rosie rubbing over her eyes before looking into her daddy's eyes. She frowned, beginning to whine.
When she's sleepy, she's sleepy. She's just like her father.
"Look who it is." Justin said, pointing to pattie.
Rosie looked over Justin's shoulder, her eyes widening. She immediately made grabby hands towards pattie, making everyone smile.
"Oh, hi my princess!" Pattie said, taking Rosie in her arms. "I missed you." Pattie said, rocking her back and forth. Rosie wrapped her arms around pattie's neck, hugging her tightly.

"Where's everyone?"
Justin questioned, taking his white vans from his feet, laying them by the door. Next to your shoes.
"Your dad is outback with the kids." Pattie said to Justin. Justin quickly left yours and pattie's side, walking out the back door.
"Has she been asleep the whole way?" Pattie asked. Her ice blue eyes meet yours.
"No. She fell asleep about an hour away. she's been in a mood today so it was peaceful when she fell asleep." You said, pushing your hair behind your ear.
"Oh no. Moody one I see." Pattie mumbled, rubbing Rosie's back gently. Allowing her to sleep peacefully.
She's sleeping now, but when you and Justin want her to she'll be wide awake.

You and pattie talked awhile before being interrupted by the sound of laughs and giggles.
Justin walked in the room carrying jazzy and Jason. His half brother and sister. He set them down, giving them kisses. "Look who's over there." He said, pointing towards you.
They both looked, gasping as they saw you sitting on the couch.
Jazzy got a head start, jumping on your lap. Jaxon right after. You groaned but the pain quickly left.
"Hey cuties. I missed you guys like crazy." You said, hugging them both, tightly.
"We missed you!" Jaxon said, smiling like a little flirt. You giggled, rubbing his blonde hair.

"Is Rosie sleeping?" Jazzy asked, looking over at her as she remained in pattie's arms.
"Yeah. She's tired. But you guys can play tomorrow." You nodded, brushing Jazzy's hair from Her face.
Jazzy nodded before looking back at you. She smiled before crawling off your lap, disappearing with Jaxon down the hall.
