Heyo everyone! Hope you all are having a happy new years! Have another chapter right before the end of 2022!
With everything finally decorated and ready for Christmas day, the next morning after breakfast the adults wanted to go off to check out the newly opened ski resort up the mountain. Of course, seeing as the babies were a little too young compared to Susie, Angelica, Edwin, Buster, and Alyssa they had them all stay behind with Lou and Lulu in the resort's main building.
"Are you two sure you'll be alright?" Didi asked the two
"Oh yes, we should be quite alright, right Lou?" Lulu replied, looking over to Lou
"It's not like it's our first rodeo taking care of eight kids at once." Lou answered "Now you kids go and have fun."
"Alright, we'll be back later. Now you guys behave for Lou and Lulu." Didi said
Didi then went off to catch up with the others as she waved goodbye to the group of toddlers. Once Didi was out of sight, Lulu suggested they take a look around the building to see what they could find activity wise. Fortunately the resort had an indoor play area for kids as Lou and Lulu took them over to the play area. Lighting up in excitement, the babies all made their way over to the various tunnels of the play set.
Up in the tunnels, Kimi happened to be crawling by one of the viewing windows within the tunnels as she spotted a familiar face. Over in the distance behind a crowd of people near the play area, she saw Taffy and her band. Letting out a gasp, Kimi crawled to find the others as she made it over towards the slide back down to the bottom.
"Guys, I sawed Taffy! We should goes and sees her!" Kimi jumped up and down excitedly on the platform
"Wow, I didn't think Taffy would be heres. Come on guys, maybe Grandma and Grandpa will takes us to sees her." Tommy said, gesturing for the others to follow as he made his way down the slide.
The group then made their way over to Lou and Lulu as Tommy proceeded to tug on Lou's pants leg. Notcing the tug, Lou looked down to Tommy as he bent over to his level.
"What's up, scout?" Lou asked
"Ganpa, Taffy!" Tommy exclaimed, pointing in the direction of Taffy and the small crowd gathered around her and her band.
"Oh my! Youngin is right, I forgot that Taffy mentioned the resort was letting her band play during opening week. We should go stop by and say hello." Lulu chuckled
"Well then, what are we waiting for?" Lou asked, slowly standing up from his spot on the bench he was sitting on
Making their way over to join the crowd, they all listened to Taffy's band sing their own edition of "I saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" and "Silent Night" as the crowd clapped and dispersed slowly but surely. Once there was a break in the crowd, Lulu waved down Taffy hoping she would notice her.
"Aunt Lulu! Hi, I didn't know you all were going to be here with the minis." Taffy said, sitting down her guitar as she went over to great the group
"Oh yes, we were invited up to the cabins for Christmas and we're spending the day with the little ones while their parents are off skiing up in the mountains." Lulu replied
"Well, I hope you minis are having fun and you have a great Christmas." Taffy said with a grin, "Oh I gotta get back to playing, see you all later."
With that, Taffy went back to her band as they continued performing their own editions of Christmas songs. Soon the day turned into the evening as the parents all finally returned from the mountains. Meeting up with Lou and Lulu over by the play area they all then returned back to the cabin.
Getting back to the cabin, everyone settled in for dinner for the evening as everyone had another wonderful night of dinner. Of course, like the night before the adults got the kids ready for bed and got them settled into the bedroom. However, unlike the night before, Samayah wasn't easily falling asleep this time around. Not long after being put down in her own crib, she began getting fussy as she started crying alerting the others and disturbing them from their sleep.
"Savannah, make your sister stops crying!" Lil huffed
"Yeah some of us are trying to sleep!" Chuckie whined
"No ight ight!" Savannah yelled, kicking and crying in her crib not wanting to go to bed.
Climbing out of her and Dil's shared crib, Savannah made her way over to her sister's crib as she reached for her sister's hand through the bars of the crib.
"Bannanah!" Samayah squealed happily, calming down upon seeing her older sibling
"Mayah, you gots to go night night so we can wakes up and opens all our presents from Santa." Savannah said to her sister before backing away from the crib
"No ight ight no ight ight!" Samayah yelled again
Seeing as it wasn't going to be as simple as it looked, Savannah turned to the others hoping they'd be willing to help get her sister to sleep.
"Guys, help, she won't go night night." Savannah whined
"I know, maybe we could all sings to her to help her go night night she likeded when we were all singing afore." Dil suggested
"Hmmm, that might actually works." Tommy agreed with a nod
"What should we sings to her?" Kimi asked
"Oh I know, I know!" Savannah exclaimed
Going back over to Samayah's crib, Savannah then began singing another song which was a parody of the infamous Driedel song.
Mayah's gots the coolest cradle she rocks in every night
And when she gets to rocking she holds on really tight
her cradle cradle cradle she rocks in every night
And when she gets to rocking she holds on really tight
Samayah let out a happy squeal hearing her sister start singing as the others began to join in with the singing.
Mayah's gots the coolest cradle, has wheels that'll spin
And when we turn her real fast she landed on her chin
Mayah's cradle cradle cradle has wheels that'll spin
And when we turn her real fast she landed on her chin
"My cadle!" Samayah giggled, wiggling about in her crib, while Savannah and the others continued to sing
I had the bestest cradle, it used to be for me
Till my mommy gaved it to my sister so you see
Now that's Mayah's cradle
That's how it's gonna be
I'm no longer a baby baby sos it's no big deal to me
Mayah's gots the coolest cradle to jump and bounce up high
We gets to really jumpin it's like we touch the sky
Mayah's cradle cradle cradle
To jump and bounce up high
We gets to really jumpin it's like we touch the sky
Mayah's gots the coolest cradle, we filled it up with soup
And when we tried to drink it, it mades us want to poop!
Oh cradle cradle cradle we filled it up with soup
And when we tried to drink it, it mades us want to poop!
Mayah's gots the coolest cradle she rocks in every night
And when she gets to rocking she holds on really tight
her cradle cradle cradle she rocks in every night
And when she gets to rocking she holds on really tight
Mayah's gots the coolest cradle, we filled it up with soup
And when we tried to drink it, it mades us want to poop!
Oh cradle cradle cradle we filled it up with soup
And when we tried to drink it it mades us want to poop!
Giggling as they finished up their song, the group all looked over to Samayah who was finally getting sleepy.
"Ight...ight..." Mayah muttered as she yawned and finally closed her eyes to go to sleep
"Yay." The group quietly cheered, happy to see that their plan worked
"Thanks. you guys." Savannah thanked as she let out a yawn
"You're welcome, Savannah." Dil replied with a sleepy smile
"Now we can go sleep too." Chuckie said, crawling back under the blankets
Nodding and muttering in agreement the rest followed suit as they all climbed back in their respective resting spots to finally get some sleep for the night.
