Mon opened her eyes when she heard sounds from the baby monitor. She checked on the bedside clock and its just 3AM.  She looked beside her and her wife is sleeping and cuddling her.

Mon carefully took her wife's arm thats wrapped around her and went out of bed to check on their little Bunny. She smiled when she saw her wide awake and wiggling on her swaddle.

"You and your big stomach Sunaree. Its not even two hours after your last feeding." she said and took the baby out of her swaddle and start nursing her. She then walks back to bed coz she knew its going to take some time before this little one sleeps again. Its their new morning routine. Waking up at 3-4 AM and getting back to sleep when she wants to.

Mon now used to holding Bunny with one hand, arranged the pillows against the headboard, put the nursing pillow support and leaned back while nursing her little one. While feeding, she reached for her tumbler and drink some water too. She then checked her messages and emails. Then went back to ogling Bunny.  After feeding she laid Bunny in between her and her sleeping wife while gently tapping the baby's tummy. But the thing is, instead of the baby sleeping, its Mon who fell asleep first.

Sam woke up with some gurgles and wiggles. She opened her one eye and smiled when she saw her darling little Bunny between her and her sleeping wife. She kissed the baby's head and caressed her smooth cheeks. She checked on the time and its just past 4 AM.

"You woke up Mami again Bun?" she whispered and held Bunny's small hand. "You should really give her time to rest and sleep little girl."

On Bunny's first sign of crying, Sam immediately carried her and went out to prepare a bottle for her. She wants to give her more time to sleep since its Monday and she's off to work later. 

When they arrived downstairs, Singha immediate followed then to the kitchen. She puts Bunny on her rocker that is permanently on the kitchen counter. She took a milk bag from Mon's B-milk stash and prepare it for her daughter who's not busy looking at the mobile installed on her rocker. While waiting for the milk, she gave Singha food and water then washed her hands. She prepared a cup of coffee for herself too.

While feeding her daughter, she walked out to the pool area and took a seat on the rocking chair. The sun started to illuminate the surroundings and its still cool outside.

"I can't believe you're two months out here with us Bun. It seems like yesterday, you're growing up real fast too. Im not yet ready, can you slow it down?" her daughter just stared at her.  "Im not yet ready to let go of your baby phase."

Yesterday, they made merit giving to celebrate Bunny's 2nd month. Everyone came with them except Fah, they had lunch at her Grandma's house. Aside form their weekly gathering, Reen's monthly celebration has become a thing to them too.

When Bunny finished her milk, Sam help her burp and the baby immediately cried Sam rocked and danced her to sleep. Walking around their front lawn with Singha following her.

Mon who's now awake and looking at her family from the living room smiled.

"Lady Mon?"

"Good morning Auntie Len. How's your sleep?"

"Its good my Lady. But why are you down here so early? Its still 5 AM." the older woman wondered.

"i woke up alone in bed so i  looked for them. Seems like they decided to start the day early and without me." Mon said pointing at the three outside.

"Ow, would you like something? Should i prepare breakfast now? Seems like you don't have a plan to go back to sleep."

"That would be lovely Auntie. Its actually going back to the hospital for Bunny's immunization schedule so i think breakfast is great. Is Ran awake?"
