October-

"Look at mommy's big big big boy!" Jessica smiles at Jack as he sits up happily on his chair.

Jack giggles and smiles as Jessica snaps some pictures of her grown up baby boy.

"Look at that precious smile and your little chubby cheekies! Mama just wants to squeeze you!" Jessica runs over to Jack and gives him the biggest hug. He was such a mamas boy and loved every second of attention that he got from her.

"Uh oh! The doorbell rang! Denise is here to watch your little stinky butt." Jessica says picking Jack and heading downstairs

It was late morning. Jessica was getting ready to leave the house to take the twins to preschool then head over to work.

"Scarlett, Wyatt, it's time to go!" Jessica says peaking her head into their room. The two of them were on the floor playing with their toys.

"Okay!" They both say

Jessica stands by the door and watches them march out of their room and down the condos narrow stairs. When they see Denise they go crazy.

"Hey littles! Looking good for school." She smiles fixing Wyatt's hair and straightening Scarlett's bow.

Denise was a young girl that watched Jack during the week while Jessica was off at work.

"Hi!" Wyatt smiles cutely

"He's in love with you." Jessica whispers to Denise

"Your boys are quite the charmers. How's baby Jack?" She says smiling at him while he rested peacefully on Jessica's chest.

"He's pretty happy today. He got lots of sleep last night, so that means he'll be a ball of energy today!" Jessica says

"Oh great!" She smiles happily

"Alright, kiddos! Do you have everything you need? Bags, shoes, coats?" She says to the twins waiting patiently by the door.

"Yes!" Scarlett says

Jessica turns to Scarlett and smiles. She couldn't get over how adorable she looked with her big bow at the top of her head.

"I love you little man. Mama will see you in just a few short hours for lunch!" Jessica says handing jack over to Denise and giving him loads of kisses

"I pick the twins up from school today?" Denise asks

"Yes! I have a date tonight! Thank you so much, we'll see you soon!" Jessica says as she walks the twins and herself out the door.

"Don't have too much fun!" Denise says as she watches them leave.

As Jessica drove Scarlett and Wyatt to preschool, listening to them sing their songs and giggle, she just felt such an overload of happiness.

Her life these last few months really took a turn for the best. She was the happiest she had ever been. All three kids were happy and beyond healthy. Jessica and Danny were on great terms. Her business was booming with Sam. Jessica also did something very big.... she bought a condo not too far from her parents, work, or kids school. It was the perfect little place for her and her little family. It was also a little side project for her on the weekends when it came to decorating. Her first month living there was so exciting. The twins loved it too since it had a nice little yard. Lastly, Jessica was seeing someone who truly made her happy.

After dropping off the twins Jessica headed over to a clients house. Sam and his team had just finished the building part of the home so now it was time for her to get started on the decorating aspects.

"I really think a white backsplash would look great. Especially since you have a darker tone going on in the kitchen." Jessica says as she walks around the newly built home taking notes.

"I think that's a great idea. I'm just so glad that Sam gave me my dream kitchen, I love it!" The man says as he walks alongside Jessica

"I think you and Tom will be very happy with the finished results. It's our job to give you your dream home."

Over the last few months Jessica and Sam worked non stop. They had so many clients and great experiences. They were having the time of their lives doing what they loved. Especially this new project that they started with a couple from upstate New York.

"Greg, did you see the arch over my bookshelf? I'm going crazy!" His husband says running in

"We are so thankful for you and Sam. You two did a killer job." Greg says hugging Jessica

"This is only the beginning." Jessica smiles

"Greg and I last night couldn't stop thinking about how beautiful your homes must be!" Tom says to Jessica

"Well, Sam lives in a little town house. It doesn't get much light and it's super boring. Me, I live in kiddie land... I mean, a condo filled with children. Nothing special." Jessica giggles

"You deserve your dream house too."

"One day! When the kids are older and our business has slowed down a bit and Sam has time to build me one!" Jessica smiles

Lunch-

Before Jessica went back to work and spending the rest of her day in home improvement stores before her date, she stopped home for a lunch break to see her baby.

"Mommy's home!" Jessica smiles as she walks in the door

Jack was on the floor playing with blocks while Denise got his lunch ready. She even made Jessica a little salad as well.

Jack claps his hands and smiles when he sees his mother. "Hey little guy!" Jessica says as she picks him up and spins him in the air

"Hey, lunch is ready." Denise smiles

"Ooo, who wants some yum yums?"

Jack's face lights up. Jessica carries him into the kitchen and sets him down in his high chair.

While Jessica was gone, the UPS man came with all kinds of boxes.

"Oh, yes! More things to play with and set around the house." Jessica says as she pulls out all kinds of pictures and vases that she ordered for the condo to give it more life.

"That's pretty. They'll go nice with your blue theme." Denise says as she spoon feeds Jack.

"Let's see how long they'll last with little buggers running around." She smiles, poking Jacks little nose.

"Huh, a package from Connecticut. I'm guessing Danny?" Jessica says opening it up

Jessica opens up the package and finds a large frame with a picture of her and all three children. The pictures were taken over the summer.

"Oh wow... look at this." Jessica smiles as she shows it to Denise

"That's beautiful. Danny sent that?"

"He did! Look, there's a note....

Jessica, here is a little house warming gift from Erin and I. Hope you enjoy." Jessica says reading the note then look right back at the huge frame

"I love it! I'll put it in my room. I've been wanting these pictures framed."

"There's more!" Denise says

Jessica pulls out the smaller frames that had a picture of each child individually when they were all newborns. Now, Jessica was beginning to cry.

"My goodness. It's a set." She cries

"They're beautiful images. They'll look great above your bed on that empty wall."

"You think? That's a great idea. Why don't you come and work for me?" Jessica giggles as she sets all the pictures down.

"Jack, this was you when you were an itty bitty baby! You're so big now." Jessica smiles

Later that night-

After a long day of working and decorating, Jessica headed over to a restaurant to meet her date for dinner.

"Hey! There you are." Jessica says coming up behind the man.

"Ahhh, Hey." Sam turns around in his turtle neck and jeans then kisses Jessica on the cheeks.

"You cleaned up nice after a long day of working." Jessica says brushing off his lint

"You think? I had to run from the site, to the office to get my truck, home, back to the site because I forgot my phone, back home to shower, then here. I'm surprised I wasn't late." He chuckles as he takes her hand so they can find their seat.

"I'm surprised too. I guess I had an easy day."

"Are the kids with Denise?"

"Yes, I'd like to be home by six if that's alright." She smiles

"Of course. That gives us about... an hour and a half." He says happily as he checks his watch.

"That's what you get for going out with a mama. Everything is early." She smiles as she checks the time to see that she's having a very early dinner.

"I enjoy it. It makes things ten times more exciting." He grins

"I guess so..." she smirks

"Ah-Ha! I have a surprise for you... now, before you say anything, I know you hate cheesy gestures... but I couldn't resist." He says handing her a box

"Oh god, what!" She says

"Happy one month anniversary." He smiles

Jessica opens the box and sees a gift card to Victoria Secret.

Jessica rolls her eyes and closes the box. "Wow. I'm not surprised!" She chuckles

"Sorry, I had to. I know you want to wait... but maybe month two will have something in store for us?" Sam smirks then raises his eyebrows

"I can't take you!" She says throwing her napkin at him playfully

Sam laughs uncontrollably and smiles. "But on a serious note, cheers to being together for a month." He says holding up his glass of wine.

"You're so cheesy.... cheers."
