Stubborn Baby
"Hundley Jane, let's not crawl by the stairs." Jackie told her as she went and grabbed her.
The baby had recently learned to crawl and she thought it was the coolest thing ever, and although they were very proud of her milestone Nick and Jackie were exhausted having to chase after her.
They recently put up the baby gate so she couldn't crawl up the stairs but Hundley still loved to crawl over to it and pull on it as if trying to get it out of her way.
The baby gave Jackie a devilish smirk.
"You are a stinker." Jackie informed the infant.
Sure enough the second Jackie put her down the baby made a beeline for the stairs again.
"No." Jackie said with a chuckle as she went and grabbed her again.
Hundley this time gave her the stink eye.
"I don't want you to get an owie." Jackie said as she carried her back into the living room.
Nick came down the stairs.
"Hey Jacks have you seen my…oh there they are." Nick said as he spotted his truck keys on the table.
He moved the baby gate out of the way just for a moment so he wouldn't fall over it.
Hundley saw her opportunity and crawled as fast as she could over to the stairs and crawled up the first step.
"Honey grab her please." Jackie told him.
Nick turned around and saw the baby grinning at both of them as if to say Haha aren't I clever, I'm up on the step all by myself.
"Where do you think you're going?" Nick asked her as he scooped her up.
The baby started to cry.
"Oh quit." Nick told her with a chuckle.
"How did our children get to be so stubborn?" Jackie asked Nick after the kids had gone to bed that night.
She'd spent what felt like the entire night ushering Hundley away from the stairs.
"They get that from you." Nick told her with a grin.
"Oh yeah, ok Nicky, like you aren't one bit stubborn." She replied.
"Ok, so it's 25% my fault and 75% your fault." He told her, grinning from ear to ear.
She looked at him dubiously.
"Alright, let's just say it's 50/50." He told her with a laugh.
She agreed to that although deep down she still blamed him!
The End!
