Don and Robin ended up buying a Craftsman style house in Pasadena that they both fell in love with. It was a two story house with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a large yard. The backyard had a nice patio that was shaded by a large oak tree. Upstairs there were four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a study they would use as an office. The main floor had a nice sized kitchen, a large dining room, and a large living room with a fire place, a laundry room, and a bathroom.
It was the end of December and today Don and Robin moved into their new house. Don had enlisted the help of his family and Amita as well as his team to help them move. It had taken the better part of the day to get everything from Don's apartment and Robin's house loaded and unloaded from the moving van that Don had rented.
They had just unloaded the last of the stuff and were sitting on the floor in the living room drinking beer and waiting for the pizza delivery guy.
Alan got up to throw his empty beer bottle away, "Anyone want another beer?"
"Yeah, I'll have another. Thanks Mr. Eppes." Colby replied.
"Me too." David piped in and Nikki said at the same time.
"Anyone else? Robin you sure you don't want anything?"
"No thanks Alan, I'm good with water." Robin replied and Alan retreated to the kitchen.
"How can you refrain from a beer after a day like today? What are you pregnant?" Nikki asked jokingly.
Robin glanced at Don and the room fell silent, everyone was looking at Don and Robin when Alan walked back in carrying four beers. "What did I miss?"
"How do you feel about being a grandpa, Dad?" Don asked with a grin.
Alan's jaw dropped to the floor and if David hadn't reached up and taken the beer bottles from him he probably would have dropped them. Alan was speechless for a moment before he spoke, "Well its about time."
Everyone laughed at that be Alan said, "Donnie. Robin, this is wonderful! Thank you!"
Don looked at Charlie who hadn't said anything, his mouth was still hanging open and Don could tell that he was still trying to comprehend this new information. "You okay Charlie?"
"Am I okay? Donnie this is great news! I'm gonna be an uncle!" Charlie was grinning from ear to ear now.
They received a round of congratulations from everyone before Amita asked Robin, "When are you due?"
"July 8th."
"This is one of the reasons we decided to have the wedding in March, before the baby is born." Don stated.
The pizza arrived and everyone dug in hungrily. It was close to nine o'clock when everyone left. Don stood behind Robin, arms wrapped around her so his hands were resting on her abdomen.
"Welcome Home Robin." He whispered as he planted a gentle kiss on her cheek.
