Riley was happily sitting on the couch, watching a random preschool cartoon in her pajamas. A sippy cup with juice was situated next to her. Hunter walked in, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.
"Morning, lil rascal! Whatcha watchin'?" He asked, and she shook her head. "Dunno."
Hunter sat down. "Are you hungry?"
"Yeah."
Hunter scooped her up. "Let's get you changed first."
Riley pouted.
"You're not getting a rash on my watch, Riley Lilah." He said
"But jammies!" She whined, and Hunter looked at her.
"You can stay in your jammies. That's fine. And after that, how about some cereal?" He asked, ruffling her hair.
"Oday!"

Although it was now over, Hunter still felt nauseous. What the hell were his parents feeding the damn child?
"Alright, Riley! It's time for breakfast!" Hunter exclaimed, walking from the nursery into the kitchen.
Hunter sat Riley in her high chair, buckling her in and locking the tray in place. As he started on making two bowls of honey nut Cheerios, his mother came into the kitchen.
"Morning, baby bird!" Said Night.
"Not good morning, mama. I have one question for you: what the fuck are you feeding Riley?! Because I went to change her diaper this morning, and now I'm traumatized."
Night laughed. "First off, thank you for taking care of your sister for me. Second, welcome to mama's world, baby boy."Hunter rolled his eyes, taking his bowl of cereal into the living room.
Night turned to Riley, who was looking back at her. The woman kissed Riley on the head, sitting down next to her.
"Alright, baby girl. It's just us today. Hunter's going to go play with his friends, Cyrus is going to a basketball game with Audrey, and Seren's with daddy at the planetarium. Do you wanna do something with mommy?""Yea!"
Night smiled. She had been holding onto these tickets for months, waiting for this day. "Well, I have a perfect idea for a mommy and Riley day! Guess what we're gonna see!"
"What mommy??" Riley asked, grey eyes filled with curiosity.
"Well, she's your favorite puppy, and she talks just like Granddad Dal!"
Riley thought for a moment, still confused.
"WE'RE GONNA GO SEE BLUEY LIVE!!!" Night shouted, and Riley's eyes widened, and she began to yell and kick excitedly. Seeing her daughter this excited made Night's heart swell. Cyrus appeared into the kitchen, clearly pissed off. " Thanks for waking me up.." he muttered, and Night patted his head. "You're welcome, twilight."
Cyrus gave a small hug before trudging away, back into his room."Let's get ready to go!" Said Night, and the duo walked into the nursery.
Riley wore her Bluey shirt that had both heeler sisters on it, while Night wore her 'Bluey mum' shirt with Chili on the front; the shirt being a gift from her mother in law. Night kept her daughter's hair down, but clipped in a small Bluey bow near her bangs. "Ah! Look how cute you look!" Night picked up her daughter and the mother took a selfie with her little one.
~~~
To say the show was packed was one hell of an understatement. Night sat down with Riley in her lap, playing with the girl's hair. This was Riley's first time ever going to a live event, so the mother was hoping Riley could handle it.And safe to say, she did.
"Mommy! Mommy!" Riley exclaimed as the show began, pointing to the stage.
"I see, baby. But you gotta use your inside voice."
"Oh. Oday!"
"Atta clever girl."
