Teddy rolled over in bed, her arm reaching across to her wifes side to pull her close, only to find that the side of the bed was empty. Opening her eyes and immediately squinting as the light from the neon numbers blinded her, Teddy deducted that as it was 3.17 Addison would probably be up feeding the twins.
Teddy slid out of bed and plodded downstairs to the kitchen where Addison stood, their son, Luke on her hip whilst making a bottle while their daughter, Emma slept in her highchair after finishing her bottle.
Addison hadn't noticed her wife come down and Teddy was now standing in the doorway, leaning against its wooden frame watching Addison make being a mother - to twins no doubt - look so easy. A smile etched its way onto Teddy's face as Addison began to sing happily as she fixed their sons bottle.
Everything came so easy to Addison, whereas for Teddy being a mother didn't come quite so easily. She wasn't a bad mother, she was quite the opposite, she was an amazing mother, but everything just came naturally to Addison. When Teddy took the night shift with the twins there would be milk or formula everywhere (she had managed to get it on the ceiling on more than one occasion) and once the twins were fed they would end up asleep in their high chairs and Teddy would have passed out on the table or they would have all fell asleep on the kitchen floor. Addison however managed to get them both fed and back in bed within half an hour and the kitchen would be spotless.
"What are you doing up?" Addison asked as she turned and saw her wife standing in the doorway.
"I love watching you take the night shift" Teddy smiled as she walked further into the kitchen, giving her wife and son a kiss on the cheek before sitting on the counter next to Addison.
"Notice how there's no milk on the ceiling" Addison teased raising her eyebrow.
"Hey, that only happened 3 times!" Teddy laughed as Addison passed her their son.
"Four" Addison corrected her. "Remember the time you tried to hide it from me but I walked in to find you mopping the ceiling?"
"That ceiling sparkled for weeks!" Teddy smirked causing Addison to laugh as she handed her the bottle of milk.
Teddy began to feed their son as Addison wiped the counter top down and then began to make a cup of tea for her and Teddy.
"So, I was thinking we could go away for our anniversary this year" Teddy smiled.
"And leave the kids?" Addison sounded nervous about Teddy's proposal.
"Well, I mean, I know it will be hard to leave them, but i'm not saying go away for weeks, just a few days. Its our five year wedding anniversary and I just want to treat you"
"Being married to you is all the treat I need" Addison smiled.
"That's cute but seriously, one of my patients runs this little secluded Inn a couple of miles away and she invited us up. Mark can have the kids for a few days and we can go away, just me and you. No screaming babies, no work, nobody but just you and me and a room in which I don't plan on leaving for 3 days" Teddy winked.
"That does sound tempting" Addison bit her lip at the thought of never leaving the bed or the arms of her beautiful wife for three days.
