Chapter 48 – Baby steps
(In the Fields-DiLaurentis house)
It was the 1st day of the boys arriving to the house…
Pepe was sitting in front of the front door of the house, wagging its tail, waiting for the arrival of the family; it started to jump of happiness when the door opened.
Emily. – "Easy, buddy, easy… I know that it's very exciting but you need to be calm ok… they are sleeping…"
Alison. – "Pepe, sit!"
The dog did as instructed but it continued wagging its body as the couple was getting into the house with the three babies for the 1st time, they were coming from the hospital; Emily was entering with two baby and Alison was with the other one and some bags; they put the car seats were the babies were sleeping on the couch of the living room; Alison waved her hand to the dog and Pepe approached to the couch and looked at the babies, it was the 1st time that Pepe saw the baby boys.
Alison said to the dog. – "Ok Pepe, these are our babies, you need to be gentle with them and not bark loud or scare them ok…"
Emily. – "Look buddy, this is Oliver, Enzo James and Wayne Kenneth; I count on you in order to protect them ok!"
The dog nodded and barked
Alison put a finger on her lips and said to the dog. – "Sshh! Pepe what I just told you! Not barking when they're sleep ok!"
(Baby crying)
Emily chuckled. – "It looks that it's too late… they're awake…"
Alison chuckled and she took two boys on her arms and started to swing them as Emily took the other one to swing him too.
Emily smiled. – "Look at you… all a pro already…"
Alison smiled. – "Well, they are three and we're two so we're down on number but I think that we can do it…" (Chuckles) "They're really calmed… I thought that they were going to be always crying…"
(Baby crying)
Emily smirked. – "You were saying?"
Alison chuckled
Emily said as she watched to her baby that was on her arms. – "I think that they may want to eat…"
Alison. – "Maybe… but I can't feed the three at the same time… I will put Ollie in its chair and feed Wayne…" (She pointed out to the bag that was close to the couch) "In the bag, I filled some baby bottles with my milk… warm one and you just feed Enzo ok…"
Emily nodded and put the baby boy also in his chair as she prepared the bottle; Oliver was the calmer between the three boys so he didn't cry when Alison put him in the chair again, in the contrary, he started to get sleep again as his brothers stopped crying.
Emily was feeding Enzo with the baby bottle and smiled. – "You were really hungry, isn't it?!" (She said in a baby tone and articulating very slowly) "Who is the most beautiful baby in the world?! You! Yes you're! Yes you're!"
Enzo was eating from the baby bottle but he smiled hearing the exaggerate pitch on Emily's voice and the facial expression of the brunette as she talked to him. Alison just chuckled seeing how her wife was all goofy over the baby boy. Alison was breast feeding Wayne and the baby got slept as he ate; Alison made him burp and then she put the sleepy boy on his chair; she looked at Oliver who was deeply sleeping.
Alison. – "Ollie is still sleeping he hasn't eaten… should I wake him?"
Emily said as she was feeding Enzo. – "Let him sleep a little more; I'm still feeding Enzo, let's see if he gets awake in between…"
Alison nodded. – "Ok… I will put the other bottles on the fridge and make us something to eat… can you stay with them for a moment?"
Emily nodded and Alison smiled seeing the happy face of Emily watching over her three boys; the blonde pecked Emily's lips and both girls smiled under the brief kiss and stared at each other with lovely eyes.
Alison smiled. – "I love you…"
Emily smiled. – "I love you too…"
Alison pecked Emily's lips again and said. – "What do you wana eat?"
Emily. – "Whatever you want babe…"
Alison smiled and went to the kitchen; she came back with food for them and at her return the three boys were sleeping; in the middle of their meal, Oliver woke up and before he started to cry; Alison cuddled him in her arms and started to breast feeding him; the little boy happily started to suck Alison's nipple and he didn't cry.
Alison caressed Oliver's cheek and said. – "You're so cute…"
Emily approached a spoon of food towards Alison's mouth and the blonde noticed it.
Alison. – "What are you doing?"
Emily. – "Well, you have to eat too so I'm feeding you too…"
Alison chuckled as she found adorable the gesture of her wife; she opened her mouth and let Emily feed her as she was feeding her little boy.
Their 1st day on the house wasn't as chaotic as the girls thought that it would be. At night the boys got sleep on their cribs and the girls went to their room; they were both on bed when Alison noticed that Emily was sat on bed looking very attentive into a tablet…
Alison. – "What are you watching?" (She approached to the tablet and said as she looked at it) "OMG! Did you put cameras on the nursery room?!"
Emily. – "After what happen with Talia, I asked Caleb to install the best video monitor in the nursery room… no one else is putting a finger on my babies! No on my watch!"
Alison. – "Em… Are you really going to spend all nights with the eyes glued to that? I need you to rest too, love; they are 3, a lot of work will come with 3 babies in the house…"
Emily sighed. – "I know and I will rest just as soon as I'm sure that they're safe…"
Alison kissed Emily's cheek and said. – "Mmm… they are sleeping now love… remember that we should get all the sleep possible when they're sleeping too…" (She noticed that Emily continued looking to the tablet and she sighed) "Ok mermaid… I'm going to sleep, you should too… ok… don't stay all night awake ok?"
Emily nodded; Alison just shook her head and got comfortable and fell sleep. It was around 1am and Emily was still looking to the tablet witch showed the nursery room; Emily made zoom on the cameras and smiled as she watched the angelical faces of the three babies who were sleeping. Around 2am, Emily saw a shadow entering into the room on the monitor and she jumped of her bed and ran very fast with a bat on her hands towards the nursery room; she was on killer mode on, but she relaxed when she saw that the shadow was the shadow of Pepe who just entered into the room.
Emily patted Pepe's head and said to the dog. – "You're patrolling too buddy?"
The dog nodded and sat in front of the three cribs and took a firm posture.
Emily chuckled. – "Ok buddy… I will sleep a little and let you to watch over them… just bark if you see anything ok…?"
The brunette slowly started to get out of the room and she smiled seeing by the corner of her eye how her loyal furry friend continued firm watching over the baby boys.
The first weeks were an entire adventure for the couple; managing three babies wasn't easy, the good thing was that the Fields were always close; they didn't want to overstep with the girls so they give them a little of privacy with the new born in order to let them enjoy their 1st moments with the boys but as soon as Pam received a little text or call from the girl asking for help; the old woman as well as Wayne ran towards them and helped them with the kids.
Alison was taking a shower and Emily was on the living room with her three kids sitting on their seat chairs...
Emily (baby talk). – "And that's why, no matter what mama says, lying is wrong…" (Baby talk) "Yes it's! Yes it's!" (Smiles) "Oh! Look at you! You are the cutest little babies ever! You're just… little bitty babies, you know that? But you've got…" (She said with a softer voice) "You've got big beautiful eyes… Yes you do… and… and big round belly…" (She emphasized the B's) "Big baby butt!" (Chuckles) "I like big butts… I'm all about big butts…"
Emily singing and dancing in front of her boys. –
"Because you know I'm all about that bass, 'Bout that bass', no treble;
I'm all 'bout that bass,
'Bouth that bass, no treble…"
Emily continued singing and turned around and shook her butt as she sang. – "But I can shake it, shake it like 'iM supposed to do… 'Cause I got that boom boom…"
The brunette continued singing and dancing and as she did it; the boys laughed and smiled.
Emily smiled. – "Oh my God! Boys! You're laughing! Oh my God, you've never laughed before, have you? Did Mommy make you laugh?!" (Chuckles) "Well Mommy and Meghan Trainor…" (Chuckles) "What?! You… you wanna hear some more? Uhm…"
Emily resumed her dancing and singing and the boys laughed louder; she was shaking her butt in front of the boys and turning around when Alison walked into the living room; the blonde crossed her arms and raised an eye brow…
Alison. – "Em… what are you doing?!"
Emily blushed and stopped shaking her butt. – "I'm just making them laugh…"
Alison. – "What?! They laughed and I missed it?!"
Emily chuckled. – "You should have seen it; oh it was amazing! Amazing! It was the most beautiful, beautiful sound in the world…"
Alison said excited. – "What did you do to make them laugh?!"
Emily chuckled. – "I uhm… well… I sang and danced to them… uhm… 'All about that bass'…"
Alison. – "Oh… I wonder if any song can make them laugh…"
The couple sang several songs to the kids but nothing made them laugh. The girls sang 'All about that bass' and the boys laughed again…
Alison. – "Well… Nothing else worked… these boys are all about the 'bass'…"
The couple sang and danced the song in front of the boys; everybody was laughing; Alison shook her hips and Emily slapped it on the beat of the song and the boys just laughed louder.
Alison. – "Are we bad moms by singing and dancing like this to them?!"
Emily. – "I hope not… but it's the only thing that make them laugh…"
Alison smiled and pecked Emily's lips and said in a seductive voice. – "Ok mermaid… this will be our little secret then…"
Emily chuckled and they resumed their dancing and singing in front of the boys.
One week-end the girls decided to pass by surprise to see the couple; they rang the bell and showed a shocker face when they saw Emily…
Aria raised an eye brow. – "What happen to you?! You look like a hurricane just passed through you!"
Hanna. – "Yeah… and you are also smelly…"
Emily sighed. – "Sorry guys, it's just not easy to deal with 3 babies at the same time…"
Spencer pointing out to all the stains on Emily's t-shirt and asked. – "What is that?!"
Emily looked at her t-shirt and said. – "I don't know… vomit, breast milk…"
Hanna. – "Are you not changing clothes?"
Emily huffed. – "I can't change 5 times by day Hann…" (She waved her hands invited them to get in) "Come on… get it… can I offer you something?"
Spencer. – "No thanks… mmm… where is Ali?"
Emily sighed. – "She must be upstairs…"
The girls got upstairs and they laughed watching Alison sleeping standing up in the closet of the nursery room as she was grabbing some diapers.
Hanna smirked. – "Well this show that nothing good come from getting sex with you Em… look how you left the Queen Bee… a complete mess!"
Alison snapped hearing voices and woke up quickly. She shook her head trying to keep herself awake
Emily. – "You fell slept again in the closet looking for diapers…"
Alison sighed. – "Sorry I just closed my eyes for a minute…"
The boys were sleeping and the three friends were watching over them…
Aria looked at the couple and said. – "You look like you need a nap… why don't you get some sleep and we will stay and watch over the kids…"
Emily. – "Are you sure? You just arrived?"
Spencer nodded. – "It's ok Em… we can handle it…"
Alison sighed. – "Ok thanks, I really need some sleep, if you need something just awaken us ok…"
The three girls nodded and the couple dragged their tired bodies to their room to take a nap. Spencer, Aria and Hanna were watching over the sleeping babies…
Aria smiled. – "They are just so cute!"
Hanna smiled. – "Yeah… I just could take one of those little feet and use it as a sucking candy!"
(Little laughs)
Spencer. – "I'm not a baby person but they are really cute…"
They were staring at the babies…
Aria. – "I can't resist anymore! I want to hold one!"
Spencer. – "I don't know… you shouldn't wake up a sleeping baby…"
Aria. – "According with who?!" (She approached her arms to one of the boys as she was trying to hold him) "It will be ok…"
As soon as Aria grabbed the little one into her arms; he started to cry…
Spencer. – "I would say I told you so but he's kinda doing it for me so…"
Aria glanced towards Spencer and then she looked at the crying baby as she was holding him. – "Oh… Aunt Aria is so sorry… please go back to sleep… sshhh"
The baby cried louder and soon the other two babies cried too.
Hanna. – "Great, now we have a choir…"
The crying of the babies woke up the tired mommies and they soon entered into the nursery room…
Alison huffed. – "They just got sleep… what happen?"
Hanna. – "Don't look at me?! It was all because of shorty!"
Aria. – "Sorry guys…"
Emily rolled her eyes and said. – "It's ok…"
Between the five girls; they put them to sleep again. It was noon; so they just order some food for lunch and they ate together; the couple really enjoyed having the visit of their friends as it was refreshing to speak with some adults and not about only baby stuffs. The babies woke up and it was time to change the diapers. They had two changing Tapper; Aria wanted to help; she was really happy being around babies…
Aria. – "Hey Em… let me help you!"
Emily. – "Ok…"
The brunette took off the diaper and cleaned the baby butt…
Hanna. – "OMG! What do they eat?! It smells awful!"
Alison chuckled. – "You will get used to…"
Alison was changing another baby and said to him. – "Ollie, don't move… you're rolling into your own poop... hold on…"
Spencer looked up over Alison's shoulder and said with big eyes. – "How did all that came from that tiny body?!"
Hanna looked up too and said. – "It's poop supposed to be that texture?!"
Alison chuckled. – "It's ok girls… it's a big poop because they love to eat… isn't that right baby boy?!"
The baby smiled to the blonde as he waved his legs and his little arms.
Emily was on the closet looking for a clean diaper as she said to Aria who stood with the little uncover boy in the changing tapper.
Emily. – "Ar… be vigilant with him because…"
The brunette didn't end her sentence when the little boy just started to pee and he pointed out directly to the open mouth of Aria; the little brunette coughed as the pee got into her throat; the other friends see it happen and Spencer & Hanna laughed
Alison smirked. – "Too late Em…"
Aria coughed. – "OMG!"
Spencer smirked. – "Do you still find them adorable?!"
(Laughs)
They took the babies on the living room; each friend had a baby on their arms and the couple just smiled seeing their friends with their babies; they were having a nice time together…
Aria said as she was shaking a rattle to the baby that was on her arms. – "I think that he's having fun with me…" (Smiles)
Spencer said looking to the couple. – "You really look tired, go to sleep, they already ate so we can handle them…"
Emily. – "Are you sure?"
Aria nodded. – "Totally, they are three and we're three too… so it will be ok…"
Hanna nodded. – "Yeah… each one will take care of a baby… how hard it can be for just some hours…"
Both girls stared at each other and accepted the offer of their friends and leave the three friends alone with the babies again. They were playing with the babies and Spencer was changing one of them as he just made poop again; the brunette dodged the pee jet of the baby…
Spencer smirked. – "Yeah… you're not doing me the same that you did to Aria…"
(Laughs)
Hanna sniffed on her baby and said. – "Ok Spence, when you're done over there, we've got a situation over here too…"
Spencer. – "No, no, no! We're all responsible for our own babies… you said it!"
Hanna. – "You see… that's where I was wrong! We've been playing them man-to-man and we should really be playing a zone defense…"
Aria. – "What do you mean?"
Hanna. – "I just think that things'll go smoother if we each have a zone, you know… Spencer, be in charge of wiping, and you Ar… you could be in charge of diapering and I'll be in charge of looking at how cute they're!"
Spencer smirked. – "Yeah… that sounds really great… but you should be in charge of wiping…"
Hanna. – "Ok, I'm a rookie so I shouldn't be in the end zone…"
The other two friends just laughed and they continued looking out for the babies for several hours until it got dark.
Emily said to their friends as they were on the front door. – "Thank you guys, we really needed that nap… we were completely out of energy…"
Aria. – "It was our pleasure Em… take care bye…"
The girls said their good-byes and Emily closed the door; she got upstairs and hugged her wife from behind and leaned her chin on Alison's shoulder as they both were watching over the sleeping babies…
Alison. – "Thanks to see them off Em… I just couldn't let these cuties out of my sigh…"
Emily chuckled and started to kiss Alison's neck…
Alison. – "Em… What are you doing?"
Emily pouted. – "Um… I haven't been able to spend any time alone with you at all today…"
Alison chuckled. – "We slept together mermaid…"
Emily said between kissed. – "You know what I mean Ali…"
Alison turned around and locked her arms on Emily's neck as she looked at her brown eyes.
Alison smirked. – "Mmm… are you feeling lonely because you didn't get any attention from me… Am I wrong?"
Emily. – "That's uh… true but…"
Alison pressed a finger on Emily's lips and dragged her to their bedroom; because they slept almost the entire afternoon, for the 1st time in weeks, they weren't too tired; they started with a make out that in question of seconds became heated; they undressed each other very fast and Alison lied down on bed and said with a seductive voice…
Alison. – "Come here mermaid…"
Emily bitted her lips and she jumped over her wife; she was sucking Alison's neck when she introduced two fingers on the blonde; Alison moaned as she felt the long fingers of Emily inside her, pumping her; Emily used her other hand to caressed Alison's breast; the blonde was so turned on that milk started to get out of her nipples; Emily saw it and bitted her lips…
Alison sighed. – "You can taste it if you want…"
Emily. – "But it's breast milk… it's weird… I'm not a baby…"
Alison smirked. – "Sometimes you act like one…"
Emily rolled her eyes and mocked. – "Ha-ha…"
The brunette continued pumping her wife and Alison just made the most erotic sounds that Emily had ever heard; she was too turned on too and even if she hesitated at first at the end she succumbed to the desire and she sucked one of the nipples of the blonde; Emily moaned under the taste of the sweet milk of her wife and Alison tilted her head back as being sucked by her wife was so much different that when she feed her babies…
Alison moaned. – "Em..ahmmm… the other too… please…."
Emily did as demanded and she put her mouth in the other boob and sucked it too. Alison felt her orgasm came and when it did; Emily kissed her with tongue and when Alison tasted her own milk on the mouth of her wife, she just moaned louder.
Alison cupped Emily's cheeks and cleaned Emily's lips with her thumbs as the brunette had milk all over her face.
Alison smirked. – "See… like a baby…"
Emily chuckled and resumed her make out with her wife.
Some months after…
The girls were dressing the babies…
Alison. – "Hey boys…this is your 1st Thanksgiving… what are you thankful for? Mama's boobies?!"
Emily chuckled. – "A lot of people are thankful for those… they continued to be so huge…"
Alison laughed and once the boys were ready, the put them into the living room with some toys; Alison was checking into the oven as Emily was over watching the boys; she chuckled and took some pictures of them as the babies were playing with Pepe; they were pulling very hard from the fur of Pepe but the dog let them do anything to him. Emily's eyes got bigger as she said very louder…
Emily said very excited. – "OMG! OMG! OMG! Ali! Come quickly!"
Alison yelled from the kitchen. – "Why?!"
Emily smiled. – "They're crawling! They're crawling for the 1st time! OMG! You have to see this! Hurry up!"
Alison ran to the living room and a big smile appeared on her face as she saw her babies crawling
Alison smiled. – "Wow… look at them go…"
Emily smiled. – "I know! Good thing that I was taking some pictures so I could take their 1st crawling in a video…"
Alison. – "OMG Em! They're growing up so fast… it looks like it was yesterday when they just born…"
The girls were admiring their babies crawling when Alison watch up to the clock…
Alison. – "I need to pick-up Jason at the airport but your parents aren't here yet…"
Emily. – "You should go now or you will be stuck in traffic…"
Alison. – "Can you stay alone with them?!"
Emily smiled. – "Off course I can! Beside my parents may arrive in any minute so…"
Alison hesitated
Emily patted Alison's arm and said. – "It will be ok…"
Alison sighed. – "Ok…" (She kissed Emily in the lips and then she put a kiss on each baby as she said) "Stay with mommy, I will be back with Uncle Jason ok…"
The blonde left and Emily followed her wife with the eyes…
Emily. – "Me taking care of you is no problem right, boys? You feel safe with me right?"
(Babbling babies)
Emily chuckled. – "I'm gonna take that spit bubble as a 'yeah, I do!'…"
The Fields rang the bell and Emily yelled that it was open; she just got distracted for that second, looking at other direction and when her look turned back to the boys…
Emily said with big eyes to her boys who were crawling. – "OMG! Where is Wayne?! Well, you two can't answer…" (She started panicking and said) "Wayne! Where are you, Wayne?!" (She was looking around and said) "Wayne! Now would be a good time for your first words!"
Emily was looking for the baby on the living room but the baby boy crawled to the front door and welcomed his grandparents with a big smile…
Wayne took the baby on his arms and smiled. – "Oh! Look at you! Already crawling!"
Pam grabbed the tiny hands of the boy and said to him in a baby-talk. – "Oh baby, baby you crawled to welcome us… how cute you're!"
Emily approached towards her parents with the other two boys on her arms; she sighed of relief as she saw the baby boy with her parents…
Pam patted Emily's back. – "Breath Emmy… breath…"
Emily. – "I just got distracted one second! And he was gone!"
Pam chuckled. – "Well, wait to see when they started to walk…"
Emily. – "Don't scare me mom…"
Wayne. – "Come on Emmy, you're doing great… everything is going to be ok…"
The Fields were with the boys on the living room when Alison arrived with Jason; Jason smiled and walked towards the boys as it was his 1st time seeing them.
Jason smiled. – "OMG! They're so big?!"
Alison. – "I know…"
They had a nice familiar Thanksgiving; Jason shared some anecdotes of his benevolent work on South America; it will be almost a year since he left the company in hands of Mr. Cohen and Alison. The blonde had missed him but she smiled seeing how happy her brother was. They continued talking during the meal…
Jason asked. – "So now that you finished college, do you know what you are going to do next?"
Alison. – "I'm staying on the company and Emily just found a job as swimming coach and sport teacher on Rosewood school…"
Wayne. – "Is that right Emmy?!"
Emily nodded. – "Yeah… I started in some weeks…"
Jason. – "What are you going to do with the boys then…?"
Alison sighed. – "We're thinking in hiring a nanny or maybe put them in a daycare…"
Pam murmured. – "Or… you could let them with their grandma…"
Emily. – "Mom… we don't want to disturb your lives… three boys is a lot of work…"
Wayne. – "But she's not alone! I got retired so we can watch over the babies…"
Alison. – "Isn't really a problem for you?"
Pam smiled. – "Off course not! I love my baby boys! Besides; they had a grandma to take care of them so why hired or let them with a stranger when they can be better with me…?!"
Both girls chuckled seeing how the old woman was begging to take care of their kids and just smiled and nodded.
Alison smiled. – "Ok Pam… we really appreciate your help…"
Pam jumped of happiness and since that day; they programmed their lives around the baby boys; the work schedule of Emily was the most flexible between the two of them; at the beginning Emily hadn't too many hours so just when she needed to be in practice for the swim team or teaching classes; she left the boys with her parents. Emily smiled each time that she left her boys with them; she never thought that she could bring so much happiness to her parents. Pam was a little worried that her husband could get depressed for not working after he got retired; but thanks to the presence of the boys, that never happened because, he was always active building something for the boys; Wayne took as a hobby working with wood and he started to make wood toys for the boys: trains, rocking horses; alphabet cubes... He was just so happy around his grandsons.
(1st birthday of the boys)
The couple did a huge celebration of the 1st birthday of the boys; all the friends and family came to the party. Spencer, Aria, Hanna and Blair, they were with the babies in the middle of the carpet of the living…
Spencer said to the boys as she pointed out to the stuffed animals. – "Another way to organize your stuffed animals is by size…"
Blair smirked. – "I'm sorry Spencer… is this a game for them or for you?"
Spencer. – "Game?! Who said that this is a game? This is me, sharing some wisdom with them…"
(Chuckles)
Aria chuckled. – "Hey boys… do you even know it's your birthday today?"
Hanna said to the boys as she showed her index finger up. – "You're '1'… One year old! That's little!"
The boys looked up towards Hanna and babbled as they mimicked her and showing up also a finger…
(Gasps)
Hanna smiled. – "That's it, boys! One! That's how old you're!" (She looked at her other two friends and said) "Did I teach them that? Did I just impart wisdom?"
They chuckled and then the couple was coming in with the cake around with the Fields and Jason…
Hanna said looking towards Alison and Emily. – "Hey, guys, come on, you gotta see what they just did!"
Emily. – "What?!"
Hanna looked up to the boys and said as she showed just her index finger up. – "Hey boys, how old are you today? Huh?! How old…?"
The boys babbled and raised their tiny hands with a finger just as Hanna did; everybody looked amazed.
(All gasps)
Alison smiled. – "Oh boys! That's right, you're that many!"
Emily smiled. – "OMG! Our kids are genius!" (She looked up to her wife and said) "Ali! This means-…"
Alison rolled her eyes and said. – "No! No science camp!"
Emily sighed disappointed. – "Oooo…"
Pam chuckled. – "Oh Emmy… let put some candles on the cake…"
Alison looked up to the toys of the boys and said. – "Oh boys… look at your stuffed animals lined up so neatly…"
Spencer smiled and blushed. – "Thanks…"
(Chuckles)
Emily said one she turned on the candles on the cake. – "Ok… here we go…" (She put the cake in front of the three boys and said) "Your 1st cake birthday, boys!"
Everybody sat around the boys on the carpet of the living room…
Wayne smiled as he was grabbing his phone and taking a video. – "Go ahead boys! Blow out the candle…"
Pam. – "Come on boys, you can do it!"
The 1st birthday of the boys was even better of what the couple imagined; it was magical.
Some months after their 1st year, the couple was getting it, the parenthood thing.
It was a Sunday when the boys, playing with Pepe. Emily was working on her lap top about the schedule of the practices for the season as Alison was with the boys, trying to persuade them to walk…
Alison was shaking a stuffy animal in front of the boys and said with baby-talk. – "Come on boys, come to mama… come on… you're the cutest boys in the entire planet! Come on…"
Emily chuckled as she continued working on her laptop. – "Stop pressuring them babe…"
Alison. – "They are gonna take their 1st steps in any minute… I can feel it!"
Emily chuckled. – "Well, they aren't gonna do it on a cue…" (She turned her head towards the boys and said) "You're gonna surprise us, isn't that right boys?!"
(Laughs and babbling babies)
Alison sighed as she sat on the couch. – "They're gonna start walking on your mom's house and I will not be there then and I'm gonna kill myself if I miss their 1st steps…"
Emily chuckled. – "Don't be dramatic Ali…"
Alison sighed and looked at her boys and smiled. – "They're getting bigger…"
Emily. – "I know… they're growing very fast…"
Alison sighed and stood up from the couch. – "I'm gonna to the kitchen for a glass of water… do you need something?"
Emily shook her head. – "Nop… I'm ok thanks…"
Alison said as she walked towards the kitchen. – "Watch over them ok…"
Emily nodded and was over watching the kids by the corner of her eye as she was on her laptop. The boys were crawling around Pepe; Enzo was the first who stood up as he pulled Pepe tail, the dog felt hurt but he let the baby do anything to him; the other two boys saw Enzo up and they mimicked them, pulling off Pepe's fur, the boys were up, and taking Pepe as support, the dog slowly walked away from the boys and the boys stood up watching the dog walking away from them. Emily's eyes got bigger of surprise when she saw her three boys up alone, hesitating to walk or not in order to follow the dog…
Emily jumped from the couch and yelled to her wife. – "OMG! It's happening! Ali! Come here! Now! They're standing! Hurry!"
Alison yelled. – "What?! Hold them! I'm coming! I'm coming!"
Pepe wagged his tail and jumped, prompting the boys to follow him and the boys laughed, they slowly started walking towards the dog when Alison arrived from the kitchen.
Alison smiled. – "OMG! They're walking! They're walking Em!"
Emily smiled and then she moved around her, looking for her phone. – "Where it's my phone! I need to take this in a video! Where is it!"
The boys caught Pepe and they tackled him on the floor; they lied down over him; Emily found her phone but it was too late, the boys were not walking anymore…
Emily. – "Oh! I missed it!"
Alison smiled. – "No you didn't…" (She gripped Emily's hand) "You were here… we were here…"
Emily smiled and they grabbed their little boys in a huge hug.
Alison's thoughts as she was hugging her family. – "It seems like even when we get the chance to prepare ourselves… we're still never quite ready for life's grand moments…"
