As one morning was beginning to dawn in their own bedroom, Baby Victor was just getting out of his bed and decided to start his day off by taking care of his own business, in addition to putting on his trusty blue diaper cover in their own bathroom, so it could be a sign that the silliest part of the duo was ready to be... well... cute and funny again!

"Hmm..." Baby Victor wondered while looking in the mirror. "You do seem to be looking good, Mini-Victor. But, can you do something like... THIS?!"

As a way to start his silly behavior for the day, he decided to puff up his little cheeks like a pufferfish and even made his eyes go as wide as he was able to do so.

"Huh." Baby Victor gasped. "I see that you can! Okay, then! How about this?"

Just then, he decided to stretch his cheeks, resulting in his own little teeth being revealed... in addition to the gap in his top teeth. But while that was going on... Baby Valentino was already awake as he woke up a few minutes earlier.

But it wasn't because he had a bad dream... but because he ended up discovering something from the day they moved into their new home. A whole bunch of pictures from their early days. Some of them, Baby Valentino completely forgot about!

"Whoa..." Baby Valentino smiled. "That day when Victor and I came to Monte Macabre. But I guess this was BEFORE we knew the trouble that we would soon see."

However, things took an unexpected turn as he soon looked at a picture of himself... with their own grandmother. But, just when you THINK it was a peaceful picture... Victor would think otherwise, as he did the same thing that Baby Victor was currently doing.

"Oh..." Baby Valentino chuckled. "Well... I'm just glad that Victor didn't... uhh... show the camera... something else."

But then... as he examined some other pictures that were around him, like Valentino looking at his coin collection, Victor proudly winking, or just themselves being... well... how they USED to be, that being them constantly fighting... Baby Valentino knew that something seemed... wrong.

Just then, Baby Victor crawled in and sat down next to him. "Hey, Val! What are you looking at?"

"A few pictures that I found." Baby Valentino said. "Remember this one here?"

"Oh yeah!" Baby Victor giggled. "And I just made that face in our mirror! But... I guess I DID get carried away."

"Maybe because you thought it was boring?" Baby Valentino chuckled... before frowning again.

"Val?" Baby Victor wondered. "Are you feeling okay?"

"Well... now that we're babies... forever... something about these seems off." Baby Valentino admitted. "Sure. We STILL act like our normal selves, but... I don't know what's off about these."

"Oh." Baby Victor understood... before pausing. "Wait. Where did you find these?"

"Remember, Victor?" Baby Valentino asked. "We had a photo album of these memories. I kept these pictures in a book, so we could look at them whenever we wanted to."

"Oh..." Baby Victor realized. "Right... I forgot."

"But... since we're babies... what are we gonna... do with this?" Baby Valentino wondered.

Baby Victor then discovered that all of the pictures were now out of Baby Valentino's book and were all right next to them.

"Maybe... we can try and make some new ones?" Baby Victor wondered curiously.

"How so?" Baby Valentino asked curiously.

"Maybe, if there's a camera somewhere, we can take pictures of our NEW selves!" Baby Victor smiled. "And then, we can put those in here! That way, whenever we want to, we can look at our new baby pictures to make us both smile!"
