The next couple months went by, Shadow became the 5th member of the family. Casey officially adopted Riley and both adopted Reagan. Beckman had tracked down Sarah who showed up on Chuck's and Casey's doorstep one Saturday morning. After spending 10 minutes with Riley, she told Chuck and Casey good luck and thank you and was gone. Christmas came and both Reagan and Riley had lots of presents from their aunt Ellie.
"Ellie, all this is too much for two 1 year olds." Chuck said.
"No, it isn't trust me, it's mostly stuff they can use as they get older. You will use all of it." Awesome said, smiling.
Chuck and Casey looked at each other, smiling. Everyone went home after a few hours, Casey got some of their new stuff in each room, put up two mobiles and two swings. When Casey finished Chuck brought Riley to her room, he first changed her diaper before laying her down.
"She's out, Reagan is still awake though."
"I'll go get her." Casey got up.
He walked into the living room, watching Reagan. He was up and walking to him with the help of the furniture. Casey smiled as he crouched down holding his hands out to him.
"Come on buddy, you can do it." Casey said just as Reagan met his hands.
He picked him up, kissed his head and walked to his room. Chuck was already in there getting everything ready and double checking the baby proofing.
"Someone has started walking."
Chuck smiled, taking Reagan.
"Really baby boy growing up on us already?"
After Casey got him into pjs and asleep, Casey looked around seeing Shadow and Chuck both watching him. Casey walked toward them, petting Shadow's head then looked at Chuck.
"Thank you for helping me get through the last few months." Casey whispered.
"You're welcome, John." Chuck said, as he kissed him.
Casey broke the kiss, and pulled him into the bedroom.
