Chapter two: Bottles for Breakfast
"And that's the last one." Luna said tying a knot in Baby Trista's diaper. "Changing the diapers of twenty babies is no picnic!"
After she put her down Luna turned to Artemis. "So what do we do now?" Luna asked.
Before he could answer they heard a low rumbling. "Tummy's hungee." said Baby Chad.
"Want eat." said Baby Raye.
"I guess it's time for breakfast." said Artemis.
"Anyone else hungry?" said Luna.
"Me!" said the rest of the babies.
"Well then I guess we better head to the kitchen."
The Babies were old enough to stand and walk so they made a sprint to the kitchen that Luna and Artemis could keep up with by simply walking faster. They went into the kitchen and put the babies in high chairs and fastened bibs on them. Luna reached for a schedule. "Let's see according to this they are supposed to have milk this morning."
"Now where do we keep the stuff?" said Artemis.
"Try the refrigerator."
Artemis opened the fridge and saw a number of bottles of milk and jars of baby food. "I'm not sure if there's anything for us to eat."
"We'll worry about that while they're eating. I'll feed the girls and you feed the boys." The boys and girls were sitting across from each other with a table in between them, Luna and Artemis put the bottles on the table in the middle of the room before giving them to the babies. "First one for Serena..."
"Baby!" she said angrily.
"Oh, I forgot. One for Baby Serena."
"Baba!" the babies said.
"One for Baby Amy, Baby Raye, Baby Lita, Baby Mina..." soon they were all sucking on the bottles.
"Guess that leaves our breakfast." said Artemis.
"I found food for us; the baby stuff was just in front of It." said Luna. "This is odd; we've never had human food before I wonder what we should have?"
"I always wanted to try scrambled eggs."
"Alright." Luna cooked the meal and they sat down to eat at a small table by the window. Luna took a bite. "This isn't bad at all; guess I'm a better cook than I realized."
"I knew it'd be good." said Artemis. "You can do anything you set your mind to."
Just then they felt something wet hit their faces. They turned to see that the babies were squirting the milk out of their bottles at each other making a big mess. "Dwink mine!" said Baby Mina who squirted her bottle at Baby Darien.
"Mine too!" said Baby Amy.
"And mine!" said Baby Lita.
"No fwair!" said Baby Darien.
"Stop this!" said Luna.
"Milk is for food not for..." Artemis slipped in milk puddle on the floor and landed on his rear. The babies stopped and got an angry glare from Luna.
"I should give all of you a spanking." The babies started crying. "If you were older, but you don't really know what you're doing do you?"
"Mama no mad?" asked Baby Serena.
"Frustrated, but I think a bath to clean you up is all the punishment I can really give." They still cried. "A bath can't be that bad."
"Tummy icky." said Baby Greg.
"Need burp." said Baby Ken.
"Burp us Mama, Dada?" asked Baby Jamie.
"Of course." said Luna. "Artemis won't you help?"
"Guess so." Artemis said as he got up.
"Fine then, same as feeding."
"Why is she so insistent that I take the boys?" Artemis thought.
They picked up each baby and patted him or her until they burped. "As disgusting as I usually find burping from them it seems cute." Luna thought as she patted Baby Molly and Artemis patted Baby Melvin.
"Buraaaap!" not only did they burp but they also threw up on them.
"No problem." said Artemis with some reluctance. "We just need to towel off our shoulders."
After they got cleaned up Luna turned to the babies. "I have to give you a bath but then you can all play."
"Yea!" was the response from the babies.
"Artemis, why don't you mop up while I bathe them?"
"Why do I have to do it?"
"I'm not letting you see these girls naked, why did you think I let you only change the boy's diapers?"
"Father-son bonding?"
"You better get started."
"Sure you don't need any help?"
"What trouble can they get into taking a bath?"
