They bought a nice house. The house had a backyard. There was three rooms, and bathroom. They began to settle into their lives there.

Heatwave and Quickshadow were over the moon when they found out they were going to have a baby. They were very happy about this. Heatwave's fellow firefighters congratulated him. Quickshadow's coworkers doctors and nurses a like at the hospital congratulated her.

Family and friends even began to congratulate them too. "Congrats Heatwave," Blades said.

"This is great news," Boulder said.

"This is most wonderful to hear," Chase said.

"Yes we are happy about this too." Heatwave said.

"We sure are," Quickshadow said.

They were both still doing plenty of work along with preparing for the baby. "Hello Quickshadow how are you doing today?" Ratchet one of Quickshadow's coworkers asked.

"I am doing okay," Quickshadow said.

"So things going alright with the baby?" Ratchet asked.

"I wonder if we are going to have a son or a daughter." Heatwave said. He was very curious and looking forward to having either a son or a daughter. Either one would make him happy.

"It doesn't matter to me as long as the baby is healthy," Quickshadow said. She was curious too, she would be happy with either one. But all that mattered to her is that the baby was healthy.

"Yes that is all that matters," Heatwave said. "As long as we have a nice and healthy baby that is all that matters," he said. "Because either one is fine as long as the baby is completely healthy," he said.

The two of them began to think of names for the baby. They were very busy getting everything ready. "There we go the nursery is all finished," Heatwave said.

"Yes we finished the whole thing," Blades said.

"Now that is done the baby will have a nice safe place to sleep," Boulder said.

"This is a wonderful room and I know any baby will be very happy with you," Chase said.

"I hope Quickshadow likes it," Heatwave said.

Quickshadow saw the nursery. "Oh Heatwave it's amazing," Quickshadow said. "It is wonderful," she said.

They soon had a baby shower and a lot of meaningful gifts were given.

They were looking forward to the baby being born. They were very busy too. It was soon November and the baby was due at anytime now. Then on November 10th that time had arrived.

"I am so thankful he is healthy," Quickshadow said.

"Me too," Heatwave said. "He is a wonderful and healthy little boy," he said.

"What do you think he will grow up to be?" Quickshadow said.

"Whatever he decides to be it is up to us to help him make it come true," Heatwave said. "Hot shot can be anything he wants to be when he grows up," he said. "He is a very wonderful child," he said.

"He sure is," Quickshadow said.
