Babygirl

My thoughts were jumbled as I walked down the large wooden steps of my house. I wondered where Jake was first of all and where my daughter was.

My wonder came to a conclusion as I heard many giggles coming from behind the kitchen door.

Xavier stood at the island in the large kitchen cleaning Eleanor's messy face and arms. Both El and Xavier were giggling, probably at their silly actions, El's head snapped in my direction as well as Xavier's. They were both smiling in my direction. 

"Good Morning mommy!" El sang.

Xavier's  smile faded deeply as El greeted me. 

"We were just making breakfast." Xavier intervened, not looking at me, and continued to clean El's arms.

"Well I bet it's going to be amazing." I smiled, walking over to kiss El's cheek. Ellie giggled as Xavier started tickling her stomach.

"Daddy no that tickles!" El screeched and tried get out of Xavier's grasp and launched into mine. "Mommy help!" El giggled, I laughed at their adorable actions and took off running to the living room with El in my arms.

Xavier chased after us at a slow pace to make El believe she wouldn't get caught at first. El looked behind us as we entered the living room and yelled "Mommy daddy's  very close hurry!" But Els plans where ended as Xavier picked both me and El up over his shoulders and started bouncing us. I started laughing very hard. 

"Hold on El," her laughs could be heard in China as well as Xavier's. He whipped us down on the couch carefully so we wouldn't be hurt. I broke out of his grasp and started tickling Ellie. 

"Hold her down S." Xavier groaned tickling El.

I held El's arms above her head and started kissing her all over her face to try and stop her loud laughs. El screamed "STOP!" So obviously we backed off. 

"Are you okay babe?" I asked El seeing a deep frown etched on her face. El shook her head and Xavier and I let her get off the couch, suddenly she launched into his lap with a large smile now on her cute little face. El tucked her head into Xavier's neck while we just looked at her, I'm shocked she just played us. 

"You guys are silly," she mumbled. Xavier mocked a shocked face at me then slowly stood up with El in his arms 

"Why don't we go eat our breakfasts now, I think the waffles are done."

-
I felt very happy right now, Xavier and I just had a good moment with our daughter and I just ate 4 and a half waffles.

"Do you want anymore?" Xavier laughed at me.

"No thanks," I smiled leaning back in my chair and looking at the diamond chandelier. El came around the huge oak dinning table and sat on my lap. 

"Mommy what are we doing today?" She questioned me. I looked at Xavier and raised my eyebrows. 

"Oh, S, I wanted to talk to you about that." He stated getting up out of his chair and bringing all of our dishes to the kitchen.

"What do you want to do today El?" I asked looking down at her

"Hmm I wanna go to........ Shopping for Greece" She suggested. 

"Greece? Why do you wanna go there?" I questioned.

"I wanna swim with the big turtles I saw there." She explained. Right after El said that Xavier came trudging into the dining room.

"That's what I was going to talk to you about." He said looking into my eyes. I realized he was talking about the trip we would take to try and get Gabby and El closer, I didn't want El to hear this because she might get mad we're taking Gabby on a family trip so I sent her to her room to play with a kiss to her head.
