I don't own Hetalia okay? I don't have much else for this opening. Anyway, enough of this A/N, on with the fic!
November 11th 1919
(from the journal of Alfred F Jones)
The twins are two today. Double the terrible twos. I remember Nikolai's pretty well. He was still teething a little and boy howdy, is that boy energetic. Yet he can focus on boring ol Roddy well. He's a lot like his mother in that sense I guess. I've made sure Roderich comes over for Nikolai's lessons after work so I can help Nattie look after the twins. She's often making dinner at that time so she needs all the help she can get with that. And often Mattie's on some assignment or finishing his projects and well, Katy does like coming over to help, especially now that she's quit her job so she doesn't have as much to do. Biggest thing she hates is the fact that until the child is born, she has nothing to really do other than housework and the like to do. She does have next year's garden planned and Nattie had offered to help in exchange for some of what she grows. Which Mattie was glad to agree too. Apparently this was a too good year for green beans and now he hates those. Katy already said she was going to make green bean casserole for thanksgiving and wants to have it at her place this year.
She had spent a lot of time knitting since the fall harvest ended. Made little Ivan and Anya hats and mittens and told me she is working on blankets for Christmas for all of them. It's been her thing she does lately and if she's happy doing so, that's all that matters. I can still tell however she doesn't like having to give up her job. She's very caring but soon enough, come April, at least that is what she figured, she can put that nature of hers to good use the baby. Nattie asked if she felt it move yet, and apparently it is a little. Nattie seemed a little worried because according to her, all the kids were very active movers. But I think this just is different from person to person. I mean look at Mattie and I, he's the more relaxed one despite us being twins. Every little thing that is different from Nattie's experience or not quite textbook that happens has her worried. She's not so much worried about miscarriage at this point but it's still a concern. She keeps thinking because of her age, it will hurt the baby. I have faith that it'll be fine. Katy is so motherly. I have no worries about her. Plus, Nattie has been quite the guide to her. She is going to give some of the Nikolai and the twin's old items to her to use, get them out of the attic. Although I hope we don't need to have to ask for them back. I love being a Daddy but by god, these three can be quite energetic. Ivan runs up the stairs, Anya follows his lead and Nikolai is your typical big brother. Although he does often get into trouble with them and tries to say it was all their idea. He has found himself in the corner often because of this.
So how was that? Good? Bad? Short? Long? Let me know in a review. I don't quite know how long this one will be just yet as the other I had a more defined plan. But yeah. Anyway, remember to read (well you just did) and to review. Ciao for now,
