chapter 18 (christmas eve/day)

so i completely forgot to put kojo in the first one so here's it redone!

in the morning rico wakes up first and goes downstairs but nobody's down there and he can't reach the remote nor does he truly know how to work it so he goes upstairs and climbs into tim and lucy's bed and lays right inbetween tim and lucy witch is on top of them as tim's head was on lucy's chest he falls back asleep after getting some blanket. bellamy and the girls wake up at 9 and he makes them oatmeal along with himself and he's on his phone while the girls play. blah blah blah now everybody's up and angela and wesley come walking in
Z-MOMM
Ang-hi baby
J-hi mom hi dad
Ang+Wes-hi baby
Ang-ready to go home
Z-yess
Ang-okay let's go
she leaves with wesley and angela goes over and thanks tim and lucy and then her and jackson leave. anyways afew days later and it's now christmas eve and the basement has been shut off to all kids so tim and lucy can put there presents down there and wrap them. tim's downstairs wrapping up the last of the gifts and lucy is out getting kojo and afew things for him like cage toys ect but they are wrapping up the dog toys and brining them out as the last gift and as there opening it lucy's going to bring up kojo. tim finishes wrapping up the gifts to the best of his ability definitely no where near as good as lucy's as your can see the diffrence. he heads upstairs and everbodys in there pjs drinking hot chocolate
T-what movie are we watching
B-snow buddies
(it's like 5 dogs and like a "kid" movie)
T-good one
tim gets a cup of hot chocolate and lucy texts him to get the kids outside or somewhere else so she can come in so he gets them outside and shuts the blinds so they can't see in and lucy brings in kojo and gets him downstairs and settled in the room in a big cage since he will get bigger and with puppy pads and food and water after he's settled then she does upstairs and outside and all there kids are playing on the trampoline and she sits next to tim
L-he's downstairs in a cage with puppy pads and all that stuff
T-good everything is wrapped up
L-good
T-i'm gonna make dinner
L-no your disabled
T-i am NOT disabled
L-yes you are
tim rolls his eyes
L-what should we have
T-i was thinking fettuccine
L-o yes that sounds good
lucy goes in and starts to boil the water when everline notices she's not out there
E-where's mom
T-making dinner
E-i'm gonna help
T-okay
she goes inside
E-can i help
L-of course you can
she goes over and helps make the sauce
E-where's the italian seasoning
L-should be in the cabinet with the rest
E-ion see it
L-let me look
lucy looks and sees that it's on the top shelf so she obviously climbs onto the counter and gets it! 🥳 once there done cooking they plate it up and bring it outside because the kids were still playing and they all sit on the couch with the fire on and a christmas story on as the background movie once there all done they go inside and lucy gives them there pjs for them to match

after they are all changed they watch elf and then make reindeer food witch is like carrots, cherrios, glitter, oatmeal, sprinkles all that type of stuff and when there done they throw it out in the yard and everybody picks out one cookie and places it down on santa's plate along with milk and everybody goes up to tim and lucy's room as everybody always had a sleepover on christmas eve with them. lucy reads them the polar express and surprisingly all of them fall asleep so tim and lucy shuffle there way out of the bed to get the presents from downstairs and bring them up. lucy had bags of stuff she got from target with candy, little toys and stuff like that for there stockings and she hadn't put them together yet as they were on the mantle so she made tim do it so he's not going up and down the stairs and he makes them all cute per lucy's request and she finishes bringing up the presents and sets them nicely and takes a picture because obviously then her and tim have the cookies and milk and head back upstairs kiss a lot and fall asleep!
at 7am tim and lucy are woken by autum and rico jumping on them yelling it's christmas and the twins groaning rolling onto there stomachs. tim and lucy look at eachother with pure love in there eyes laugh and grab there littles closer into them and they whisper to them to jump on the twins and they do so and finally everybody is awake and they all get out to bed lucy heading down with her phone in hand taking pictures as the kids are coming down. (guys i genuinely have no idea what to write as i don't do christmas i mean i celebrate it but i don't yk because i go on a trip instead of getting presents and that type of stuff) anyways as the kids are going through there stockings (the first thing you do people) lucy gives tim her phone and demands he takes pictures and she goes into the kitchen and puts the casserole 🥘 ( SINCE WHERE WAS THERE A CASSEROLE EMOJI!?) into the oven so it can bake and be done when they are and she goes back over and the kids open up there presents (i also don't know what to put because im turning 15 on october 17 😉 anyways i don't even know what i want to put on mine and i don't know what a 7 and 3 year old would necessarily want) after they are done they go and eat and everline decides to try and eat a full meal as she hasn't in forever and she does without throwing it up 🥳🥳. after there done bellamy and everline immediately run upstairs and grab the presents they had bought and the littles had made tim and lucy look at eachother confused and then the twins come downstairs with the presents and give them to tim and lucy. in the presents they open the twins had made lucy a photo album/ scratch book kinda thing and she cried because it was so cute and they had made tim

that with angela buying it and a swear jar as he is the one the mostly does along with little other things they all made together with tim and lucy loved even more as they didn't expect it. after they are done with that tim gets the kids outside while lucy sneaks downstairs and grabs kojo and brings him outside
E-oh my god.
B-what
E-look at mom
B-oh my god
they go back over to where the couch is and sit down with rico and autum not far behind
A-IS THAT A PUPPY
L-yes it's a puppy
A-can i hold him
L-yes sit down
everybody sits down on the floor and in a circle so kojo can't escape
E-what's his name
L-he was named kojo and i was thinking we keep the name
E-yes it's cute
they continue playing with kojo all day long and the kids fall asleep on the couch with kojo (even though tim said no) because they wanted to sleep with him and well lucy helped tim out that night to 😉
