Ellen POV

I wake up with a tiny foot against my back. I flip around and see Tal laid out between Patrick and I. She looks so adorable when she sleeps, I look over at the alarm clock, it's 8am and the contractor people are suppose to be here soon. I kiss Tal's forehead and Patrick's cheek and grab my robe, heading downstairs.

I take out all the things to make pancakes and start cooking, putting coffee on to start and pouring Tal orange juice in her princess cup. After I start cooking I hear little footsteps make their way down the stairs and Tallula comes into the kitchen.

"Morning sleepyhead," I turn and look at her in the pajama's I picked out for her. She climbs onto one of the stools and grabs her orange juice, taking a drink before answering me.

"Morning Ellie, are you fixin pancakes?" She can see the batter.

"Yes I am," I smile looking back at her before continuing to cook.

"Can I have blueberries in mine?" She asks sweetly.

"If you can hand them to me from the fridge you sure can," I watch as she goes to the fridge and pulls out the almost eaten container of blueberries.

"Thank you sweetie, do you like the new house?" I add the blueberries to the pancake batter.

"Mhm, Ellie can I ask you somethin," she says bashful.

"Well yes of course, you can ask me anything," I turn around and watch as she looks at me in the eyes.

"I think there is something wrong with Daxie, mommy said its just because he's new," she takes another drink of her juice.

"What do you mean sweetie?" I look at her confused and she looks worried.

"Well Daxie cries ALL the time, if he isn't crying he is always in momma's lap. He never wants to play anything because he's really loud," she complains.

"Well all babies cry sweetie, you just have to give it time to settle in," I turn around and flip the pancakes.

"So if you and daddy had a baby it would cry all the time too?" She looked sad as I turned right as she said that.

"Well not necessarily, some babies never cry."

"Does that mean you and daddy are going to have a baby?" She says happily.

"Well maybe in the future, but for right now, it will just be us," I take the pancakes off and put them on plates and sit them across three of the breakfast bar.

"Thank you Ellie, and when you and daddy have a baby, make it a girl please because I can't deal with two brothers, and if it's a girl then it will be pretty like you," she takes a bite of pancake.

"Oh alright, I'll try my best, and thank you," I laugh at her comment and pour me and Patrick a cup of coffee and he comes down to the kitchen.

"What are my favorite girls laughing at?" He comes in and kisses Tal's head and my cheek before grabbing his coffee and taking a sip. He already had a black shirt and jeans on.

"Nothing," me and Tal both look at each other and smile before I sit down. We eat and as we finish someone knocks on the door and Patrick goes to let them inside. I put the dishes into the dishwasher as Patrick shows the guys to the backyard and they start talking about how it needs to be set up.

"So Tal, do you want to go with me or stay here with your daddy?" I start walking up the steps to my room and she follows.

"Where are you going?" She asks and sits down on the unmade bed.

"Well first I have to go pick up some curtains and other things for the house then I am going to lunch with Ms Katie, Ms Sandra, and Ms Chyler, then I am going to the market and grab a few groceries," She watched me as I brushed through my hair and put it up in a bun.

"Is Noah gonna be there?" She asked. Noah is Chyler's son who is a year younger than Tallula. They would always play together when they were at the set at the same time.

"Probably, and maybe Taelyn too," I smiled. Taelyn was only about a year and a half and absolutely adorable.

"Ok, can you come pick my outfit out?" She smiles sweetly. I follow her to her room and open the closet. I gave her black leggings, a purple shirt and some tan UGG boots. I went into my room and grabbed a tan sweater with skinny jeans and my UGG boots. I went into the bathroom after pulling my clothes on and pulled my hair from the bun, messing with it and decided to leave it natural.

"Ellie, can you do my hair," she smiled sweetly again, she always knew how to get me to do everything she wanted me too. I took a brush and brushed through it, leaving it down and fixing her bangs.

"Thank you," she smiled and skipped down the stairs. I followed her and went out back where they were doing something.

"Patrick, I'm heading out with T, call me if you need anything!"

"Ok, love you," he waved and I waved back. I went and grabbed a satchel and threw it over my shoulder and grabbed my car keys.

"Ready?" I asked in her direction and she nodded. We drove down to the home goods store and got curtains for all the rooms, Tallula picked out pink curtains, I got a light blue for the living room and a cream color for the rest of the house. She picked out some decorations for her room that included butterflies and outdoor type things but stayed girly. She was a lot like her father when it comes to the outdoors. We paid for everything and she helped me pile things into the back of my car and we got into the car again. We drove over and found a parking space a block away from the restaurant. I helped Tal out of the car and she held my hand as we made our way down the sidewalk. We met Sandra and Chyler at the front of the restaurant, Katharine couldn't make it so it was only us and Chyler's kids.

"So how's the new house?" Chyler asked as she was putting Taelyn in a high chair.

"It's wonderful, sometime in the spring we are going to have a barbecue and you both have to come," I smiled as we sat down at our table inside.

"That's wonderful, I will definitely try and make it," she smiled.

"You do know what they say about a new house right?" Sandra raised her eyebrow as she sat across from me.

"No, what?" I looked over at Tallula who was coloring on a coloring book along with Noah.

"They usually get pregnant within the first year," she smirked and I looked at her in surprise.

"Well I'm not getting pregnant anytime soon," I giggled a bit.

"Mhm," she did her signature 'yeah right' face, both Chyler and I laughed. We talked a bit before the waiter came over and took all of our orders for drinks and our food. Our drinks came out almost immediately.

"So what's the deal with Katie?" I asked as I took a sip of my drink.

"I heard she's about to start working on another movie," Sandra informed. If there was news, Sandra knew about it.

"Seriously? Her newest movie is just now coming into theaters," Chyler commented.

"Yeah, she's really auditioning for a lot more movies, it's crazy."

"Do you guys think she's going to leave?" I asked them.

"I don't know, but she said she was signing another contract next year for us but we'll see if that last," Sandra scoffed. Me and Chyler snickered along. We gossiped a little before our food came. We finished eating and said our goodbyes before we left.

"Ellie, are we going to whole foods next?" She smiled up at me as we were walking to the car.

"Yep, we need some apples, bananas, strawberries-"

"And blueberries!" She exclaimed. She loved blueberries and I just laughed.

"Yes of course some blueberries," I opened the car door for her and she hopped in. We took the quick drive over to whole foods and we went in.

"Ellie?" Tal said in her sweet voice which meant she wanted something.

"Yes T?" I grabbed a shopping cart and put my purse in the front of it.

"Can I ride in the shopping cart? My legs are tired," she batted her eyelashes up at me.

"Ok," I moved my purse and lifted her into the front of the cart. We shopped for mostly healthy things, we got a few sweets like vanilla ice cream and stuff to make cookies. We paid and she helped me carry the bags to the car then helped me put them into the trunk. Paparazzi was doing what they usually did, they took tons of pictures.

"Ellie, why do people always take pictures of you and daddy?" she asked as she climbed into her seat and put on the seat belt.

"Well since me and your daddy are on tv, people like to see pictures of our everyday lives to see if we are just like them."

"But that's weird," she looked confused still.

"Yeah, it kind of is but they don't get that, they get paid to take pictures of us so we just have to deal with it," I looked in the rear view mirror and she had a confused look on her face and I could tell more questions were coming.

"Why do so many people wanna be movie stars if you never do anything without someone taking your picture and following you?"

"I don't know doll," I smiled at her and she smiled back. A few minutes passed before she spoke up again.

"I had lots of fun today Ellie, can we do it again when I come back?"

"Well we will probably have to do it with your daddy too but I would love too," I let out a little giggle. She nodded and I just smiled. I am so glad she is accepting me as a motherly figure and I just hope Jill won't have a problem with it.

An; Hey Guys! I apologize dearly about me not updating as much as I should. I've been ill and cannot concentrate well enough to write for long periods of time but as I get better, the time I spend writing will get longer and soon I can get back to a normal schedule.

In this part I really wanted to develop a relationship between Ellen and Tallula so that is why it is mainly focused on the two instead of Ellen and Patrick. Hope you liked it!
