Addison and Jake's relationship was still going strong. Addison felt like she was developing a good relationship with Jake's children too.

Jake had stayed at Addison's house with Lily and Ivy for the first time last night.

It was a Saturday morning and Lily and Ivy were both sat downstairs watching TV in their pyjamas.

"What would you girls like for breakfast?" Addison asked

"What do you have?" Ivy replied

"I could try and make some pancakes" Addison suggested

"Yes please"

Jake came down the stairs carrying Henry. He'd had a bit of a diaper explosion and Jake had said he would sort it.

He smiled when he saw Addison, Ivy and Lily all laughing whilst Addison tried to make pancakes.

"Do you need some help there?"

"I'm doing just fine" Addison replied unconvincingly

"Okay, well just shout if you need me"

After making a big mess, Addison did manage to make pancakes for everyone. Together, they all sat down and ate breakfast.

"What do you all fancy doing today?" Jake asked

"Can we ride bikes?" Ivy asked

"Addison do you fancy that?"

"That sounds like fun, I can sit somewhere with Henry while you ride"

"I can have Henry in a seat on the back of my bike"

"Are you sure?" Addison asked as she didn't feel confident to have Henry on the back of hers

"Yeah sure. Do you want to do that Lily?"

"Okay but can we have ice cream too?"

"If you're a good girl"

"I always am"

"Hmm if you say so"

After breakfast, Jake and Addison cleared up the kitchen which was a big mess after Addison's pancake making.

Ivy had gone upstairs to get ready but Lily was still downstairs making Henry laugh.

"Let's go and get you dressed Ivy" Jake said

"Please will you get me dressed Addison?" Lily asked

"Yeah sure"

Lily adored Addison and constantly wanted to be with her.

Addison went upstairs with Lily to the room that she'd slept in last night.

"What are you going to wear today then?"

Lily looked through the bag of clothes that Jake had packed for her and picked out a dress.

"It's probably best not to wear a dress if you're riding a bike. Let's see if Daddy packed you any shorts"

Addison looked through the bag and found a pair of shorts and a t-shirt that Jake had packed.

Lily took off her pyjamas and got dressed. Once she was dressed Addison brushed her hair for her before putting it into plaits.

Addison loved being there for the girls and looking after them. Jake having three incredible daughters made being with him even more special.

Addison was just finishing off Lily's hair when Ivy came in.

"Addison please will you put my hair in plaits for me too too?"

"Yeah sure, come and sit down"

Once Ivy and Lily were ready, Addison packed a bag and then they were all ready to go.

"Aren't you going to be a bit hot in that hoodie Ivy?" Jake asked "it's going to be a really hot day"

"I'm cold"

"Okay. Let's get going then"

They went out to the car and Jake drove them down to the pier.

Once they were sorted they stared riding their bikes along the front.

Lily was quite slow but Addison was impressed with how well she was riding.

After a while Lily was starting to get tired so Addison said she would stop with Lily at a park that they were near so that Ivy and Jake could go on a bit further.

"Do you want me to take Henry?" Addison asked

"It's okay, I think he's enjoying the ride. Unless you want to take him?"

"No, as long as you're happy to keep him"

It was a very hot day so Addison made sure Lily had plenty of water when they stopped. Her face was very pink.

"Do you want to go play?"

"Can I just sit here with you?"

"Yeah sure"

Lily was a little chatterbox and really did make Addison laugh at some of the things she came out with.

After a while, Jake and Ivy returned and joined them at the park.

"Ivy you must be boiling, take your hoodie off" Jake said

"I don't want to"

"How can you possibly want to keep that thing on"

"I just want to keep it on, what difference does it make to you?"

"You look like you're sweltering"

"Just leave it Jake, if Ivy wants to keep her hoodie on then she can"

Addison and Jake went and bought ice creams before coming back to the bench where they were sat.

After they'd had them, Lily and Ivy went on the swings in the playground for a bit.

"Why will Ivy not take off that hoodie? She's boiling hot" Jake said to Addison

"I think she's feeling a bit self-conscious" Addison replied

"What do you mean?"

"I've noticed that she tries to cover her chest a lot and it's probably because she's started to develop" Addison told Jake

"Oh, what should I do?"

"Well it's probably time she started wearing a bra"

Jake's face dropped.

"She is eleven Jake, what do you expect?" Addison said laughing

"I suppose, but she's growing up too quickly. Ivy isn't going to want me to take her bra shopping"

"I wouldn't mind taking her, but she might not want me to either"

"I'm sure she would much rather you did than me. Would you mind?"

"Of course not. How about we go for lunch and then I'll see if Ivy fancies a little shopping trip"

"You really are the best Addison Montgomery"

"You're going to have to do something fun with Lily though because she's going to be jealous"

"I could take her to the splash park, she loves going there"

Ivy and Lily came back so they got back on their bikes and cycled back before going for lunch.

"Do you fancy going to the splash park after lunch Lil?" Jake asked

"Yeah" Lily said sounding excited

"And I fancy going shopping, do you want to come with me Ivy?" Addison asked

"Okay, that sounds fun"

They had a nice lunch before getting ready to go their separate ways.

Addison was about to put Henry in the car in his car seat.

"Do you want me to take Henry? Save you having to push a pram around the mall" Jake offered

"I don't want him to interrupt your afternoon with Lily though"

"He won't, besides Lily loves being with Henry"

"Yes I want Henry to stay with us"

"Okay then, if you don't mind"

Addison and Ivy said goodbye to the others before heading to the mall.

They did some normal clothes shopping first as Addison was a bit nervous about taking Ivy to get her first bra. She knew how embarrassing it felt at Ivy's age and she hadn't exactly known Addison for long. They stopped in a coffee shop so Addison decided now was as good a time as any to speak to Ivy about it.

"Ivy"

"Yeah"

"Would you like to get a bra?"

Ivy had not been expecting Addison to say that and instantly started to blush.

"I don't know"

"I know how it feels to be your age when everything is starting to change. I remember feeling really self-conscious when I started developing and trying to cover my chest so that nobody would notice"

"That's why I didn't want to take my hoodie off today" Ivy admitted

"I guessed that. If you start wearing a bra then it should make you feel less self-conscious"

"What would Dad say though?"

"You don't need to worry about what your Dad thinks. Besides, I already talked to your Dad about it and said I would take you bra shopping"

"Really?"

"Yeah, so what do you think?"

"I want to get one"

"Okay, let's go and get you measured then"

"What does that mean?"

"We'll go to a shop and a lady will measure you to make sure we get the right size"

"Oh, okay. Will I have to take my top off?"

"Probably not when she measures you. And when you try them on you change behind a curtain and then the lady will check the fit after you have it on. Don't worry, it won't be as bad as you think"

Once they'd finished their drinks they headed to get Ivy measured.

"Is it possible to make an appointment for a fitting please?" Addison asked one of the ladies in the shop

"Certainly, is it for you?"

"No, it's for Ivy" Addison said as she placed her hand on Ivy's back

"Okay, I can fit you in now Ivy if you'd like to come with me"

Ivy felt really nervous.

"I'll be waiting out here" Addison said smiling

"Please will you come in with me?"

"Yes of course, if that's what you'd like"

Ivy nodded her head so Ivy and Addison went with the shop lady into a fitting room.

The lady measured Ivy before going and getting a selection for Ivy to try on.

Once Ivy had picked out the ones she wanted, they went to pay before heading back to Addison's.

When they walked in Lily was fast asleep on the sofa and Jake was outside.

They put their shopping bags down before going out to see Jake.

"How was your shopping trip?"

"It was good" Ivy replied

"Did you buy lots?"

"Quite a bit"

"Lily's shattered, she fell asleep as soon as we got back. Henry's upstairs having a nap too"

"Thank you for looking after him"

"It was no problem"

Addison and Ivy sat down with Jake and it wasn't long before Lily had woken up and came out to join them.

"Right, we'd better get going and leave Addison in peace" Jake said

Addison couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed at what Jake had just said

"Can't we stay here again tonight Daddy?" Lily asked hopefully

"You can't just invite yourself to stay at someone else's house"

"But Addison was meant to give me a bath last night but we ran out of time because the movie finished late, so if we stay again she can give me a bath tonight instead" Lily said

"And we already have our stuff here" Ivy added

Jake and Addison both laughed.

"Addison?" Jake asked

"I'd love for you to stay another night"

"How about I go and get stuff for a BBQ then?" Jake suggested

"That sounds lovely" Addison replied before Jake leant into give her a kiss

As Addison pulled away, she caught Sam looking out of the window at them and couldn't help but feel a bit guilty. But then she looked away and realised that she had nothing to feel guilty for.

Jake nipped to the store to get supplies and when he returned Addison made them a margarita each and a mocktail for the girls.

Addison was having such a perfect weekend and couldn't imagine her life any other way.
