A/N: I appreciate all reviews, faves, and followers. They tell me that you readers are liking my story.

I would like to thank flamingpen18 for being my beta and teamhotmen for being my pre-reader. She helps when I need it, and they both make my story look pretty. Much love to you both.

For those of you that have read Edward's Rules… I will be continuing it, but not until after I have Love & Kids finished. I do not want to have to worry about updating two stories at once. As it is, the updates for L & K are sporadic enough. Can you imagine how it would be if I had two WIP'S going at the sametime?

FYI, if you don't have anything nice or constructive to say, then keep it to yourself. If you don't like my story, then don't read it. I am not forcing anyone to do so.

All characters belong to Stephenie Meyer, except for the ones that I have made up. All locations belong to their sole owners, unless they are places that I have made up. No copyright infringement intended.

B POV

I woke up feeling a little more energized than I have been feeling. After getting up from the bed, I walked into the bathroom. I did my business and washed my face.

As I was walking out of the bathroom, Edward was walking into the bedroom with a smoothie for me from Jamba Juice. I wrapped my arms around him the best that I could, in spite of my ever expanding stomach, and gave him a kiss before I took the cup from him.

"Hmm... thank you, baby! It's just what I needed." I was, afterall, a little bit hungry, and this would satisfy my hunger for now. "I was wanting to cook dinner for everyone tonight, since they are coming over anyway. So could we go to the store to get what we need, please?"

"What were you thinking of making, love?"

"Enchiladas casserole style. It's easy to make and makes a lot," I tell him.

"Sounds good to me. I also stopped by the store on the way home. The girls are doing a great job running the store. Rose even called some people about getting the area set up for the new children's area."

"Incredible! It sounds like Rose is doing an awesome job."

"That she is. She also asked me if we would like her to take over the closing of the store. She also suggested that we look into getting a few more people to help out for the opening shifts. Alice is more than capable of running that for us, since she is already there early. I think they are wanting to see how well they can do without any of us there for longer than the two weeks that we were gone. Going by what Rose was saying, she and Alice were talking about it. Also, I think that Alice needs a little more help in the kitchen too."

"Well, we can talk to them about it during dinner. As it is, we already know that I won't be be doing too much soon. Hell, I'm already not doing much as far as the store goes. I can always do the ordering from home. I guess you are going to have look into hiring more people for the music department."

"We still have time to fine tune things, but yeah, I'm going to need to. It seems like the store is running better then ever. I was also thinking that along with having Angie on board and implementing her ideas, we can also have a music program for the children. It would be the perfect time to get our kids involved in it as well."

"OK, what time is it by the way?"

"Just a little bit after 3:30," he says.

"Let me go put my other clothes back on, and then we can go to the store and pick up what we need for dinner and whatever else we need here at home."

"I'll meet you downstairs, love."

I walked into the closet to change back into what I was wearing earlier, since I had changed into a tank and shorts to take my nap in. Once I was done putting my clothes back on, I went into the bathroom to spritz some body spray on, brush my hair, and to pull it into a ponytail so it wouldn't be in my way. I also grabbed a sweater in case it got cold while we were doing our shopping. I then went to go search for Edward.

I found him sitting inside my mini truck in the drivers seat. As soon as he saw me, he got out to open up the passenger door for me. After closing the door, I got into the passenger seat and just shook my head at him. Edward didn't like me to do a lot of driving while I was pregnant, which I found out while we were expecting Andy. A few minutes later, we were at Stater Brothers to do our shopping. Edward helped me out and held my hand 'till we got to the front of the store where he grabbed a shopping cart and headed inside where I was waiting for him.

Finally, we were home after spending about an hour and a half doing the grocery shopping. Edward brought in all the bags while I went to the bathroom. When I got back to the kitchen, there were bags everywhere. I started to separate what needed to be put into the pantry and what needed to be put into the fridge and the freezer. Edward came in with the last of the bags and started to help me by putting the things away, leaving out what was needed for dinner.

After Edward and I had a small snack to hold us over till we were able to eat dinner, we got started on prepping the food. Edward helped by cutting up the chicken for me, while I got the water started to cook the chicken in. I also got the enchilada sauce into a pot, so that I could have it ready to heat once the chicken was almost done and so that I could get the tortillas started. I also added the refried beans into another pot, so that I could get those heated up some as well.

Once Edward was done cutting the chicken up, I added it into the boiling water. Since I had some time while waiting for the chicken to cook, I decided to have a snack. "I'm going to have a snack. Would you like something to eat as well?" I ask Edward.

"No, I'm good. I can wait till we eat dinner. Besides, they are all due to be here in a little while."

"OK, I'm just going to have some yogurt," I tell him. I didn't want to have a big snack and be full by the time we have dinner.

"You sit. I'll get it for you," he tells me. So I do as I'm told and sit down at the island. He brings me the yogurt with a spoon and a water bottle.

My dad and Mama Sue showed up early with the kids. The twins were still sleeping, so they were put into their room to finish napping. Andy and Shay were in the family room, watching a movie to keep them occupied. Edward and Dad were with them to make sure that they didn't get into anything. Edward also had the monitor for when the twins woke up from their nap. Sue and I were in the kitchen finishing up on making the enchiladas. In addition to the enchiladas, there was Spanish rice, guacamole, and chips and salsa.

Mama Sue set the table for me, while I got out the chips to be added to a bowl. I was also getting Andy and Shay's dinner ready as well. I had saved some of the chickens for them to have for their dinner. I added it to the some of the Spanish rice and some corn.

While I was dishing up their food, Edward and my dad came in with them and the twins. They set the twins up in their highchairs and Andy and Shay at the island. Mama Sue sat with them to make sure that they didn't fall out of the chairs. Edward got the twins' dinner ready. I set Andy and Shay's plates before them and got them some milk to drink.

Right after the kids were done eating, everyone else had shown up. Edward got the enchiladas out of the oven for me, and I put the chips and salsa into some bowls and set them on the table. We all sat down to eat after the kids were settled into the playroom with a movie. Edward had put up the gate at the top of the stairs so that they couldn't get down the stairs by themselves and he had the volume on the monitor on high, so that we could hear them over all the talking that was going on while we were eating.

Rose and Alice did the dishes once everyone was done eating. Mom and Mama Sue went to go check on the kids while I was basically deposited myself on one of the couches in the family room with the remote for the t.v. As I was looking for something for us to watch, the moms came back into the room.

"The kids are all asleep. They didn't get their baths, but we were able to get them into their pj's," mom said.

"That's okay. They can always have one tomorrow," I told them.

Edward and the rest of the men had walked into the room with all of the packages from our trip. I had no idea what they had been up too, but now I knew. Edward and Mom started going through everything and weedling out what we got for ourselves and what went to whom. Before everyone left to go home, they all got their gifts. Edward shooed me upstairs to get ready for bed after they all left and told me that he will lock up the house. While I was in the bathroom, Edward came into the room and started to get ready for bed.

"I haven't told Dad about the truck yet. I want to surprise them with it. I'm also wanting to get it detailed, have the oil changed, and get it a tune up before we give it to them," he tells me. "I'm going to have it all done tomorrow, so that we can give them the truck within the next few days."

"Alright, sounds good to me," I tell him and give him a kiss before getting into bed.

As soon as Edward is done getting ready for bed, he turns the lights off and gets himself settled on his side of the bed. He pulls me into him and gives me a kiss. I turn in his arms and settle down to fall asleep. Edward then places a kiss on my shoulder and tells me that he loves me and always will.

"Hmm... love you too," I tell him as I fall asleep.
