Kath smiled as she stared at the picture that DJ had taken of her and Dylan first thing that morning - how beautiful it was. She looked over at her daughter, seeing her sound asleep after a diaper change and she leaned over, wincing because of the pain but she gave Dylan a kiss. "My beautiful little girl," Kath whispered, kissing her again before sitting upright and she found herself opening her Twitter and her eyes widened at how her Mentions had blown up more than usual, full of fans congratulating her and being worried that they hadn't heard anything in over twenty-four hours. She was confused, so she checked DJ's feed and she rolled her eyes playfully when she saw that he'd Tweeted that she was in labor. "Daddy was just so excited that you were coming, baby girl," Kath said softly, a smile on her face and she opened her Instagram to see the images she'd been tagged in were blowing up too, pictures of herself pregnant and pictures of her with DJ and Noah, and every post was anticipating the first picture of Dylan and what she'd look like, worried about Kath because they hadn't been updated and it had been way more than twenty-four hours. She found herself making a new post on her Instagram, putting up the picture DJ had taken that morning - it hid Dylan's face mostly but it was still a beautiful photo, she definitely wanted it framed. The caption to put with the picture came easily:
'Dylan Padilla,
You are the latest love of my life. My whole world now revolves around you and your big brother, beautiful girl, and I am the happiest person alive that I get to call you mine. My daughter. My flesh and blood. I can't wait to watch you grow and thrive, you've defied all of the odds to be here and I swear to you, Dylan Padilla, that I will never let you down. You and your brother have my entire heart and I am so thankful for you.
I love you with every fiber of my being - now and forever,
Mommy x'
She turned her head as the door opened and she grinned when she saw DJ come through with Noah.
"Mommy!" Noah beamed, racing towards the bed and Kath shushed him gently but she couldn't stop smiling - she'd missed him so much.
"Your sister's sleeping, monster. Come give me a cuddle, though!" DJ lifted Noah up onto the bed, chuckling as Kath huffed as Noah attacked her with a tight hug. She kissed his head, rubbing his back as they held onto each other.
"I missed you, Mommy."
"I missed you too, monster." She said, kissing his hair again before they pulled away from each other.
"Papi said you were a very good boy yesterday." DJ praised and Kath smiled wider.
"I'm so proud of you, monster!"
"I made you a card, Mommy and it's for Daddy too." Noah reached into the bag he'd brought with him that was on the bed beside him with Leo and he pulled out a folded piece of card. "Papi wrote it for me," Noah said proudly and Kath smiled, kissing his head and she admired the card with DJ for a moment before DJ gave his son a hug too.
"I love it! We'll put it up when we get home." DJ praised and Noah giggled, grinning widely.
"Is Dylan here now?" He asked excitedly and Kath nodded her head, moving over on the bed slightly so DJ could sit with them.
"She's right here." Kath breathed, reaching for the plastic crib that was beside the bed and Noah's eyes widened at the sight of his sister.
"She's really little," Noah whispered, not wanting to wake her up.
"She's small for now, bud, but she'll grow," DJ assured him, ruffling his hair. "You can hold her if you want, later on when she wakes up," DJ said and Noah suddenly got shy, shaking his head.
"I don't wanna drop her."
"You won't drop her! You can sit up here with Mommy and that way, you won't drop her if you're sat down." Kath said, kissing his hair and he nodded his head, his smile taking over his face again and he dove into the bag he brought with him and he pulled out another card.
"I made this one for Dylan." He announced, handing it to DJ and his parents both grinned, their eyes burning with tears when they saw that he'd tried to draw a stork on the front with a pink bundle hanging from its beak, welcoming Dylan to their family on the inside.
"This is super special, bud... when we bring Dylan home, we're going to have to put this card up in her room." DJ smiled and Noah beamed, his smile widening as DJ pulled a small box out of his pocket and he opened it in front of Kath. "I picked this up at home." He said with a grin, showing Kath the engagement ring and he slid it onto her finger.
"I thought we were waiting until Dylan came home?" She questioned, but she was smiling widely.
"Well, I can't wait that long." He said, leaning in and sharing a kiss with her - for once, Noah not complaining. He was excited for his parents to get married.
