Remember: she dumped you the first time and went and had kids with someone else. THIS WAS NOT MEANT TO BE.
I'm planning to take it slow, no idea what the future will hold. What I'm looking guidance on is how to set the ground work so she'll consider me.
Also, it's been more than 10 years, I rounded down. There was no chance the first child was conceived "on my watch".
Okay then, I'd say ask her if she wants to meet up for lunch or coffee while the kids are at school. Progress to dinner and help figure out creative ways to find babysitters (you could pay for the babysitter or find a cousin who'll sit for her for free for a favor - whatever floats your boat) - just show her you're interested in her and understand that her kids come first & you're willing to work with that. Move on to attending the kid's games or having a 'family' picnic in the park.
Bottom line - talk to her face-to-face, see what she's looking for in life, explain where you're going, see if you're still a match, and make it clear you're not just looking for her ass but care about her kids as well.

Yes, I am single, never married.
Also, I'm 35 and ready to settle down. She's 33 and from what she tells me, really unsure about how to be out in the world after 10 years as an SAH mom
As much as I love this story...she either got pregnant before you broke up or right after you left. Her first kid is 9 and she's 33 which puts her at 24 when s/he was born and that's a conservative estimate. I'm not saying people need to necessarily wait when moving on with their lives, but if I was in love with someone enough that they were ready to propose, I wouldn't be marrying and having a baby with someone else less than 6 months later.
You might be seeing stars but be very clear about her vision and her love for you before you go down that road. Good luck!
