A/N: This was written for a prompt on tumblr.
Devon's sleep mussed hair hung in her eyes as she managed to settle the hungry infant to her breast. She gently stroked her tiny cheek and couldn't help but smile down at their newborn daughter. It had only been three days since she'd made her way into the world, and already Devon couldn't imagine life without her. She rocked the chair gently as their daughter began to suckle her middle of the night meal.
She let her head all back onto the back of the chair as she softly hummed the same lullaby that she'd sang to Uly back on the stations when he had trouble sleeping. She rubbed the baby's back as gently as she could as she ate almost greedily. Something she had no doubt gotten from her father's side of the gene pool.
She could feel eyes on her as she lifted her head and met the beautiful oceanic blue eyes of her husband. "It's not polite to stare," she teased him. Her voice was sleep filled and almost incoherent. She moved her hand to her mouth to stifle a yawn.
He moved into the room. As he knelt down in front of both of them, he kissed the baby's head first then Devon's lips softly. "You're so cute when you're sleepy."
She couldn't help but smile. "I am just so happy that she's finally here. And healthy." She didn't know what kind of true blessing that was until Julia had given her the clean bill of health. Uly's illness had terrified her, and she had been worried the entire pregnancy that something else would go wrong.
He cupped Devon's cheek and kissed her once more before turning his full attention to the baby in her arms. "Me, too, sweetheart. Me too."
