Sorry to throw this into the mix, and I know this wasn't the question you asked, but the Court is not going to look kindly on your boyfriend moving in with you. Courts frown on any parent co-habitating with the opposite sex without being married. It is grounds for losing custody of your children.
Make sure you (and your boyfriend especially) know this and have considered this consequence should you two move in together. If their mother wants to make a stink about it, she can and and probably will have the children taken from their father.
This varies WILDLY from place to place and judge to judge. BTDT and wasted a lot of money pursuing something that wasn't worth it in the first place - the judge was unwilling to modify our custody arrangement because of my ex moving in with his then-girlfriend. Basically I was told that where he chose to live was none of my business unless I could prove it posed a danger to my son. (And I have to add, just because I don't like coming off as the controlling ex, that there were extenuating circumstances - the gf had lost custody of her own kids after a CPS investigation).
