Kevin woke up with a good feeling cause he was going to be 31 and Katie just turned a year old a few weeks ago, and he had a small celebration for her, and she has been getting bigger with every passing day, and he was loving her cause she was the apple of his eye, and he was not letting anything get in that path

"Morning Katie girl," he says when he enters her nursery to get her up that morning cause it was going to be a fun day too cause he was going to celebrate his birthday with his favorite girl

"Hap bir dada," she tells him in her cute baby language since Kevin reads to her every night before bed and she stopped having her pacifier after she turned a year old, so she sleeps with her stuffed animal at night or her music player

"Oh, thank you Katie girl," he says as he kisses her cause she was too cute when she talks

Kevin was going to enjoy his birthday with just her cause she was all he needed in the world

"I say we go out this morning for my birthday," he says as he was going to take her out

Katie was happy about that a lot cause she loved being with daddy on his birthday

"Let's get you buckled in, and we are going to IHOP," he says cause he knows IHOP will have a kiddie menu for her, and she can drink from a big girl cup as well

Kevin got her buckled in no time, and he set off for his birthday breakfast with her

(IHOP)

Kevin pulls in and gets her out and she holds his hand as they head into the restaurant

"How many?" the waitress asks him

"Two please, and can we have a booster seat," he says as he picked Katie up

"Sure, right this way," the waitress says as she shows Kevin to his table

Kevin puts Katie in her booster seat, and he was going to sit next to her as well

"Okay Katie let's see what you can eat cause you don't have many teeth right now, but I know you will get more in time," he says as he was looking at the menu for her cause she doesn't talk much just little words right now, and he was okay with that completely cause her vocabulary will grow in time

(Months later)

Kevin was dating Austin and it was going well. Kevin did not want to bring Katie into the picture yet cause she is only a year old, and she does not understand any of it she understands that Kevin is the only man in her life and that is all that she needed right now cause her in eyes he is the only man that loved her 

"Lea thanks for watching Katie while I go out" Kevin says cause this date he was going to tell Austin about Katie and Kevin was wondering if Austin was going to accept Katie for who she was and whose daughter she was as well 

"Kevin, I love watching her she is such a sweetie, and so well behaved" Lea says as Kevin left the house to go and meet Austin right now 

"I know she is and she barely gets into trouble at all, and she is on Santa's good list" Lea says as Katie toddled towards Lea cause she loved Lea a lot right now cause she was like a mom figure in her life right now cause she was so little  

Katie gave Kevin a kiss before he left cause Lea was going to see how Katie was doing and how she draws, and Katie sings so Lea was up for singing with her cause Kevin had the house decorated for Christmas and the tree was protected so she would not touch it cause she loves the lights. She started to name them a little bit with her cute baby language 

"Kevin will it be okay if I start potty training her?" Lea asks him cause she wanted to see if Katie will take to the big girl potty already or not and if she did Lea was going to start to train her, so she got more comfortable with it  

"Yeah, I am a little clueless right now in that department, and I would like to have her learn from a mom figure" he says cause Katie was growing too fast for him and she started to show interest in potty training already which was a shock to him cause he wanted her to stay little, and that was impossible right now    

"No problem and I will be here to help you, and it gives me practice when I become a mom, and I can check in and I will let you work with her cause she is a fast learner" Lea says as Katie went toddling cause she loved to run, so she wore herself out easy and she was full of energy 

Kevin headed out cause Austin was waiting for him 

(Later)

"Hey Kev" Austin says cause he packed a picnic 

"Sorry Austin I had to get Katie squared away" Kevin says as he was going to join Austin 

"Who is Katie?" Austin asks him 

"My daughter she is almost two and full of energy and I love her" Kevin says as he was going to show Austin some pictures that he had of Katie cause he had countless pictures of Katie on his phone cause she was so beautiful 

"When can I meet her?" Austin asks Kevin cause he wanted to meet Katie 

"In time I want to tell you first then easy her into the picture cause she is only a year old and I hate to overwhelm her right now" Kevin says as he was joining Austin right now 

"I understand I'm cool with pictures of her" Austin says as he was going to look at the pictures that Kevin had of her 

Austin couldn't believe how big Katie was and how beautiful she was

"Is she your biological daughter?" Austin asks him 

"No, I adopted her when she was a newborn it's a long story on how I got her" Kevin says as he was telling the story about Katie and how he adopted her cause her adoption was approved quickly 

(Later)

"Wow" Austin says after Kevin told him the story on Katie

"Yeah, I wouldn't change a thing to get her back she is so perfect" Kevin says cause he was thinking about the future with her cause he was excited for the future with her being in the picture 

Kevin knew he had to take her to the eye doctor sometime cause she was going to need glasses cause she has been running into things here and there 

"I can tell she is an angel" Austin says to him

"She is an angel, and she is my only one I will ever love for a daughter" Kevin says as he was thinking of Katie right now cause he was missing her a little and she has bad separation anxiety when he is not there

"I think I have to go home cause she is missing me too much" Kevin says as he gets a text from Lea 

"Okay we can catch up tonight" Austin says as he was leaving right now 

"Yeah, for sure" Kevin says as he heads home to be with Katie right now cause she was missing daddy too much for her liking right now

Kevin and Katie cuddled until she went down for her n a p, and Kevin invited Austin over for a bit cause Kevin was not leaving Katie for nothing right now cause she needed her daddy right now 

"Katie I am right here" he says as he hears her wake up from her n a p 

Kevin decided to sleep with her cause she wanted daddy, and Austin will come over later once she had her n a p 

"Maybe some milk will calm you down" Kevin says as he went to warm a bottle of milk for her cause that was the only way she will sleep right now 

Kevin had the bottle ready, and Katie took it 

"There we go angel" he says as he was going to chill with her right now

Katie was good with holding her bottle as she was cuddled with daddy right now 

"I think I need to change you before you close your pretty eyes" he says as he takes her to the nursery to change her 

Katie was only damp, and she continued to drink her milk as he changed her 

"There we go all nice and dry I am going to see when I can wean you from your formula" he says as he was going to put her back in her crib and he was going to stay close to her the whole time 

Kevin covered her up and stroked her pretty hair as she was going to go to sleep 

"Night Katie girl love you" he says as he kisses her good night as she was going back to sleep 

Kevin was going to call the pediatrician to see when will be a good time for him to wean her off her formula completely cause he had plenty of it for her cause she won't take regular milk at all right now which was weird indeed 

"Austin, I thought you left" Kevin says when he saw Austin 

"I thought you might need me still with her" Austin tells him 

More is going to be coming like Katie warms up to Austin in the far future right now with work being the way it is
