"Babe, wake up we have to go get furniture for the twins." Erik said the next day. "We need to quadruple everything double for the house and for the RV too." I told Erik. "Yeah, those will be fun to build." He said. "JH said he'd help you." I told him. "Your family is the best." He replied kissing me. "I know, but so is yours." I said before getting ready for the day. "Did you wake up Landon?" I asked him. "Yes he's all ready to go and has been for an hour he's in his room playing with cars." He replied. "An hour?" I asked him. "He told me to let you sleep for a while for his sisters." Erik replied. "That's our boy." I said smiling.

Erik picked up Landon and we went to the store to buy furniture for the twins. "Hi how may I help you today?" The employee asked. "We are having twins and we need two cribs and two travel cribs, four high chairs, two play pens." "Do you think we should each have a set of car seats or just use two car seats?" I asked Erik. "We should each have two car seats." Erik replied. "Four car seats two change tables, two different twin strollers, four cradles, two gliders, baby monitors with videos, and four baby swings." I said to the worker. "Twins?" She asked. "Yeah and my fiancé travels for work so we need extra things, and two baby baths." I said.

"Alright I can help you guys pick everything out to you liking, do you know the genders?" She asked. "They are both girls." Erik replied picking up Landon and taking my hand. We bought everything we needed, we split it so Erik bought everything for the apartment and I bought everything for the RV. "What does your fiancé do?" She asked. "Erik is a NASCAR driver." I replied. "And he's making you pay for half?" She asked. "His apartment, my RV." I told her. "Your RV?" She asked. "My dad died during a NASCAR race so NASCAR gave me an RV." I told her. "Oh I'm sorry for your loss." She said. "I didn't actually know him, he met me when I was a year." I told him. "Oh." She replied and that was left at that.

After everything was loaded into John Hunter's truck, we went to buy me a van. "Ok Landon you get to help me pick out a van for everyone." I told him. "Ok." He replied so we went to go find the perfect van. "Hi I'm Tom, how can I help you today?" One of the employees asked. "We would like this van." I said. "A van for you three of you?" He asked. "It's going to be five of us in five months." I replied. "Alright let's see would you like another colour?" He asked as we all went to discuss the van and what not until Erik took Landon for a walk. "You seem pretty young to be a mother to three." Tom said. "Yeah well we had Landon when we were teenagers, well I did because he didn't know about Landon until last year." I said. "Oh so they are all you fiancé's?" He asked. "Yeah thankfully." I replied. "Alright so just sign here and the van is yours, but we don't exactly have the green in that van so it may take a couple of weeks." He told me. "That's five I'm only four months along." I replied before we shook hands and I went to go find my boys.

"Erik Landon you two ready?" I asked. "Yeah of course come on babe." Erik replied before picking up Landon and we went home and put everything in the twins room. "What were you two doing?" I asked that night as we were laying in bed. "At the car dealership?" He asked. "Yeah at the car dealership." I replied. "Landon was looking at all the cars and I was watching the people, you know I have signed hero cards in Landon's bag." He said. "Oh yeah you do so if someone noticed you two you'd have a hero card for them." I replied. "Yeah, it's smart and I have a place to keep them when I'm with Lan." He said. "When I think of Landon I can think of him following in your footsteps and becoming a NASCAR driver in the cup series." I said. "Yeah I think of that too he's a very polite two year old, you've done a great job with him." Erik replied. "Thank you." I said before kissing him and going to sleep.

The next two weeks went by with Erik going to the shop every day and testing cars, while me and Landon did our own thing until I got my van. "It's in Landon, let's go get great aunt Andrea." I said before I called her and we went to go get her and the girls. "So what's been going on?" Andrea asked when we picked them up. "Nothing much, we've been going to different places, museums, the zoo, parks and go kart places." I replied. "Oh sounds fun." Andrea said. "Yeah fun." Landon said from the back seat. "We've been to the NASCAR hall of fame a few times." I then said. "Landon are you going to be a race car driver like daddy and grandpa and John Hunter and great uncle Joe?" Andrea asked Landon.

"Yeah race car driver." Landon replied. "Tell her what numbers you are going to drive in the NASCAR series." I said. "The eight truck, the 20 car the 77 car." He said naming Erik's cars numbers and John Hunter's truck number since he wants to drive for great uncle Joe and then have his father's number. "JH's number and daddy's numbers." I said. "Yeah." Landon replied. When we got my van we drove back to the apartment and I got into the back with Landon and Kennedy. "Mommy's in the back." Landon said to Andrea. "Yeah, you're not use to mommy being the back with you are you?" Andrea asked. "No." He replied. When we got to their house we all got out and said bye to each other then I put Landon back in the car seat and drove us home. "We have three vehicles and two parking spots what to we do?" I asked Landon. "Go see landlady." He replied. "That's actually a good idea." I said so we went to go try to get a third parking spot. "Of course you can, I get that Erik has one, you have one then you need a van for when the twins come." She replied.
