Chapter 29
Now all of the kids were awake and hyperactive. It was 6:30 and time for tea. I gave them some kind of mush, it was apparently chicken dinner. I let them feed themselves whilst we sat down to eat.
I didn't get to eat much; Hayden started crying so I had to feed her bottle.
"My turn next time" Vlad said smiling. I nodded. It was time to bath them. Fabian first. As soon as I put him in the bathroom he ran out. I sighed and raced after him. After 6 whole lap around the top floor I finally caught him and plopped him in the bath. He kept splashing me so I was soaked. I bathed the other two easily and put Gen Gen and Fabian to bed. I kissed there head.
"Love you mummy" Gen Gen said, cuddling the elephant teddy we had brought her today.
"Love you too darling" I said good night went into the dining room. Vlad was holding Hayden.
"I am knackered" I said nearly falling asleep.
"That's why I am taking Hayd tonight" Vlad said.
"You have named her Hayd?"
"Yes, Gen Gen, Fabes and Hayd"
I smiled.
I was that tired I kissed Vlad and Hayd and went to bed at 9.
I looked at the 2 beautiful children asleep and I smiled. I climbed into my coffin and went to sleep.
I woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of knocking. I clicked my fingers and sat up. It was Fabian, he was crying. I got out of my coffin and picked him up.
"What's the matter?" I said rocking him.
"I had a bad dream" he said, beginning to cry again. I sat on the chair and cradled him in my arms until he fell asleep again. I fell asleep with him.
Gen Gen woke me up at 9, it was later then yesterday, I walked to the dining room and put a sleeping Fabian on the sofa, I gave her some pancakes and went to get Hayd.
She was in Vlad's coffin cuddled up to him. I smiled and lifted her out.
Erin was eating her breakfast.
"Hey Erin" I said.
"Hi, need some help"
"Sure"
"Want me too feed the baby?" Erin asked.
"Thanks" I said handing her a bottle and the baby.
Vlad walked in rubbing his eyes.
"Do you know that Hayd wakes up every 4 hours crying" he moaned. I nodded.
"My turn tonight" he smiled and sat next to me.
"How did you sleep?"
"Ok I guess, Fabian wake me up crying, but we soon went back to sleep, who knew it would be this hard" I moaned. This was a job for an older me, I come home one day and I suddenly have three children.
"Where's my pancakes" Gen Gen demanded, she hopped on my knee.
"In a minute Gen Gen, just go sit at the table and I will be there in a minute" I patted her back and she walked to the kitchen.
"Will you wake Fabes up?" I asked Vlad. He nodded and walked too the opposite sofa, where Fabes was sleeping. You could tell he was the lazy one.
I made pancakes for me, Erin, Vlad and the twins. I took Gen Gen out of Erin's arms and put her in the pushchair next to me. I put in a rabbit teddy and sat down to eat.
"Thanks Bonnie" Erin said. "First proper meal in ages"
"It's ok" I said smiling.
The pancakes were a golden brown/cream colour. I plopped a scoop off butter on top. The twins had a bottle of milk each as well.
"Thank you mummy" Gen Gen said, picking off the butter.
Vlad plopped a half asleep Fabes on the seat next too him.
"Do you want some pancakes?" I asked him. He nodded. I handed him his breakfast.
When everyone finished I picked up all the plates and took them into the kitchen. Renfeild was always with the count planning the coronation so we made most meals.
I looked over at Gen Gen who was covered in butter. I giggled and cleaned her up. I picked her up and put her on my knee on the sofa. I tickled her lightly, making sure she didn't throw up on me. I turned on the television and left her to watch Balamory. Next I cleaned up Fabian and sat him next to Gen Gen. Vlad did help but sometimes I think he could do more.
"Hey Erin, do you want to come with me and kiddies to the park or something, need to tire them out?" I asked.
"What about me?" Vlad said.
"If you wanna burn to a crisp you come along" I smiled
He came behind me and wrapped his arms around me and kissed my cheek.
"Sure" Erin said. "I will get dressed" she walked out. I followed her with the children.
Fabian was dressed in some jeans, a blue top and some little red trainers. Gen Gen had some purple tights and a pink flowered dress on with some black shoes. I put Hayden in blue leggings and a white top, with a jacket and some socks. I smiled at the three little bundles of cuteness. I took them all too the dining room and put them in there pushchairs.
"Ready?" I said looked at Erin. She nodded.
"See you later" I said to Vlad kissing his cheek.
