Jays pov: it's been almost 3 months since we started the whole process to get Teddy and his husband to be to join the parent club a little over two months ago Erin became pregnant in about a month ago she found out that she was pregnant again with twins which wasn't much of a shocker to us but still it was, Porter has had his cast on for six weeks it was supposed to come off about two weeks ago but his bones were still not healed enough last time we checked on it so, The girls are doing good so are the twins right now me and Twitter are at his doctors to check on his broken arm to see how I was healing this time

PJ= so daddy do you think I can get my cast off today
J= i'm hoping so buddy it's been a long time we'll just have to see
PJ= oh yeah

Once we get called back the nurse weighs Porter and then takes him for an x-of his arm then me and Porter are in the room waiting on the doctor to come in we only have to wait for about 10 minutes

E= yeah we should also call the other kids to check in on them
J= all right let's do it

We go and start calling the kids first that was the birthday girl she was letting her sleep over with Violet, then we FaceTime the other kids they were having fun too, after talking with the kids we got our bathing suits on and went swimming and the lake for a couple hours, After the swim I decided I need to go take a nap since I was tired so after a good 2 1/2 hour nap I wake up and I don't hear or CJ wound up right when I start to go look for him I see a note on the table

E= " hey sexy I hope that nap was good you are probably wondering where I am well I'm not telling you sorry but you need to follow the flower pedals to find me but I promise it won't be for long hurry up so I can kiss your face " Jay Halstead what am I going to do with you

I then start looking for the petals once I find them I start to follow the pedals and Jay was like it wouldn't take me long because I found him super quick

E= hey handsome I found your note
J= I can see that
E= what did you plan
J= well come here and see
E= ( kiss him) why are you the cutest
J= I don't know I just am
E= so what did you plan
J= well while you were asleep I ran to the store to pick up some things
E= wait how long was I out
