"Mommy made pancakes," Aidan announced to his dad. "So I got to wake you up!"
"Me too," Noah squealed.
"Mm pancakes sound delicious especially mommies," Jasper rubbed his stomach while smiling. He was getting really hungry. Even though they had a chef in there house sometimes, nothing was better than his wife's food. Alice was a really good cook. She made dinner on their second date and he'd been addicted ever since.
"Mommy da best cook," Noah smiled; anything his mom did was automatically his favorite.
"She's the only cook here," Aidan grumbled at his brother.
"No!"
"Yes."
"No!"
"Ok, ok," Jasper interrupted their arguing; it could go on for hours. "That's enough. Go downstairs, I'll be there in a bit."
"What are you doing?" Aidan eyed his father.
"Going to the bathroom," Jasper said with a chuckle. "Is that alright?"
"Yep!" Noah giggled as Jasper got out of bed. "I wait for you."
"Sounds good." Jasper smiled at his boys as he walked to the bathroom. A few minutes later, he exited the bathroom and found the boys in a pillow fight. "Knock it off you two. We don't want to keep mommy waiting."
"I hungry!" Noah announced as he jumped off the comfy king sized bed. He was a risk taker which he probably got from his uncle Emmett.
"Careful bud," Jasper said as Noah ran full speed at him. He quickly picked his son up and set him on his hip. "Come on Aidan."
"Hey, took you guys long enough. I almost started without you," Alice said as Jasper walked into the kitchen with Noah still in his arms and Aidan following closely behind him. She wasn't exaggerating. She was starving, plus she was eating for two.
"Sowwy mommy," Noah pouted and held out his arms for Alice to take him. Noah was a mommy's boy.
"I'll put you down," Jasper said as he put Noah in his chair at the table. He pushed his chair closer to the table so he could reach his food.
"Jas," Alice rolled her eyes at her husband and placed her hands on her hips.
"What?" Jasper looked at her innocently. "He's heavy."
"I can still carry him," Alice replied as she took a seat. Jasper had a point, but there was no way that she was going to let him decided what she can and can't do especially when it concerned her kids.
"I just don't want you to overdo it," Jasper gave her a quick kiss before taking a seat next to her.
"I know. Here, sweetie." Alice began to cut Noah's pancakes for him while he grabbed his sippy cup with milk in it.
Jasper cut Aidan's pancakes for him much to his dismay. Even though he was five, Aidan thought he cut things on his own, but Alice and Jasper didn't always let him have a knife. "I know how to cut them myself, daddy."
"Amuse me," Jasper replied as he tousled his son's hair and gave the top of his head a kiss. "I know you're getting big buddy, but you have to be careful with knives. We've talked about this before."
"Can we go swimming today?" Aidan asked as he ate his breakfast, forgetting everything that just happened.
"No," Alice and Jasper said together.
"Why not?" Aidan whined as he looked at his parents with a frown. They never let him doing anything fun.
"Bud, it's December and 25 degrees outsides that's why," Jasper responded.
"But our pool's heated," Aidan reminded them with a smile.
"We said no, Aid. Let it go," Alice said.
"But I want too! Daddy you said we could do whatever we want with you today and I want to go swimming!" Aidan dropped his fork on his plate and crossed his arms with a pout.
"Aidan," Jasper looked down at his son who was determined to go swimming. "You know that we do not go swimming in the winter when it is this cold. Our pool may be heated, but it still won't get warm enough. You'll get sick. Mommy and I said no; what mommy and I say goes, you know that."
"But…" Aidan began as his eyes wandered to the door to their backyard. Snow was starting to fall and it was going to get colder. When Jasper and Alice lived in Forks, it got even colder, but when Jasper got offered a position to play professional baseball. So their whole family packed their bags and moved to North Carolina.
"Aidan," Alice warned. She couldn't believe that he was still bringing this up. He was normally really good.
"No swimming today and that's final! If you want to talk about it some more, you can spend the day in your room," Jasper said sternly. He hated disciplining, but they had to learn.
"Fine," Aidan mumbled as he returned to his food.
Jasper and Alice shared a quick look before continuing their breakfast. Aidan was acting out today and Alice had a feeling it was because he was up past his bedtime. Aidan was a good kid.
"Mommy, Daddy," Noah said with a huge mouthful of pancakes.
"Don't talk with your mouth full, sweetie. It's not polite. Remember your manners," Alice reminded him,
"Sowwy," Noah swallowed before continuing. "Let's go swee Swanta Cwaus!"
"We're doing that tomorrow remember?" Jasper smiled at his son as his big blue eyes lit up with excitement. "We're going to Daddy's team Christmas party and Santa is making an extra special trip just from the North Pole."
"Yay!" Noah was so excited. Last year he was scared of the jolly man, but this year would be different. He couldn't wait to tell Santa Clause what he wanted for Christmas this year.
"How about we go to the zoo?" Alice suggested. "They've got special lights up and everything's decorated. It won't be too cold for us to be outside for just a little bit."
"Yeah, mommy! The zooooo!" Noah exclaimed. He loved the zoo and all the animals in it.
"The zoo sounds great." Jasper had to admit even he was looking forward to it. It always turned out to be a fun outing with the family. He loved the zoo as a child and was happy his boys did too.
"I went to the zoo a couple of weeks ago for school," Aidan frowned. "I don't want to go today."
"You love the zoo," Alice reminded him. "You told me after that trip that you could go to the zoo every day and still love it."
"Well not today, we can do that any day. I want to do something with Daddy!"
"Well what do you want to do then?" Alice asked
"We're not going swimming," Jasper interrupted before Aidan could even answer.
"Jasper," Alice rolled her eyes and turned back to Aidan. "Sweetie what do you want to do today?"
"Well," Aidan swallowed nervously before he spoke as he looked up to his dad. "Can we play baseball?"
Every dad's dream to do something they love with their son! Haha or I think so?
Anyways…hey there! Thanks for all the reviews! So school starts tomorrow…ew…so I will most likely update Saturday or sooner depending on homework and basketball!
