If you play with fire.. you get burned

Chapter 66

"Terrified. That's how I felt as soon as I was left alone at home with the twins. I didn't say anything to Andy because I wanted him to enjoy some girl time so I tried to be calm. When the house emptied and I was left with Mila and Marcus, well, at that moment I felt quite lost. I didn't know if I was capable of taking care of them. When I'm with Andy it's easier to manage the twins and I didn't know if I could do it alone. But things went well, they were calm and happy and remained so until the time came for me to give them the bottle. They were always used to seeing their mother's face while they ate so I think that was why neither of them wanted the bottle at first. Mila and Marcus kept crying because they were hungry and I really didn't know what to do. I then came up with the idea of taking a photo of Andy so the twins could see their mother while they were getting their bottles. Both Marcus and Mila smiled and then I was able to give them the bottle. Now I know what to do the next time this situation happens. Mila and Marcus are really very sweet and then there's Lilli who enjoys causing trouble. I can't wait for the twins to grow up so we can play together with Lilli even though I already imagine that all three of them together could cause a lot of trouble"

"It was strange leaving the house without the twins. At first I thought I wouldn't be able to enjoy that day, but then I managed. I admit that most of the time I thought about my kids, but I also spent a few hours having a little fun. I don't know if I'll ever get used to leaving the house without my children, I want to try again, but not right away because now I just want to enjoy their growth. The next time I leave the house without the twins, it could be with Robert even just for a short walk... The best thing about that day was when I came home and saw Mila and Marcus sleeping leaning on their dad and it was really a very sweet thing to see. As usual Lilli had made one of her many disasters, and I can already imagine how nice it will be to see Mila and Marcus play with her"

Andy and Robert had written a few words in their diary and then were ready to start a new day. Mila and Marcus slept peacefully that morning in their crib next to Andy and Robert's bed while Lilli, as always, was close to them. Lilli would often jump up on the bed so that she would put her face on the edge of the crib to try to sniff and lick Mila and Marcus's faces. Andy and Robert took the opportunity to have a leisurely breakfast before the twins woke up and also before their family arrived. Since it was a beautiful day they had thought of taking a walk in the park, bringing Lilli too and then returning home and having lunch together. After Andy and Robert finished breakfast they went to pick up Mila and Marcus who had woken up and then Andy breastfed them. After Andy finished breastfeeding Mila and Marcus, Andy and Robert picked up their children so they could spend a few minutes cuddling them. Mila and Marcus were always smiling, all four of them were calm on the bed when suddenly Lilli jumped on the bed and licked Marcus and Mila's faces. The twins laughed while Andy and Robert unsuccessfully tried to make Lilli stop. In the end, to make Lilli stop licking the faces of the two children, Andy and Robert got out of bed and, holding their children in their arms, headed to Mila and Marcus' room to change their diapers. While Robert finished diapering both children, Andy looked for cute onesies to put on Mila and Marcus and chose two onesies with teddy bears drawn on them.

Andy: "They're so cute in the same onesie" she said, picking Mila up.

Robert: "It's true" he replied smiling as he picked up Marcus. "I think our mothers have arrived" he said, hearing the door of the house just close.

Andy: "Just in time at least the kids stay with them now while we take a shower and then get ready to go out" Robert nodded.

Andy and Robert joined their family who in the meantime had settled in the living room and Michelle and Sandra immediately picked up Mila and Marcus. While they cuddled the twins, Andy and Robert went for a very quick shower.
