Zane

"Lil' man what you babblin' about huh?," I said in my baby voice to ZJ. ZJ giggles and starts blowing bubbles as he babbles and I laugh out loud. I am sitting on the bed while I stand ZJ up on my legs. I lean in and I kiss him all over his face and he squeals in happiness. I turn my head slightly and I see Yani knocked out next to me. I smile and I lean down and I kiss her forehead.

"Let's not wake up mommy. Let daddy get you some food. And let's see what your sister is doing," I said softly. I stand up with ZJ in my arms and I leave the bedroom. I go downstairs to the kitchen and I see my princess making a bowl of cereal.

"Good morning beautiful," I said. Nia turns around and smiles widely when she sees me.

"Hi daddy," Nia said sweetly. She walks over to me and I lean down and I pick her up with my free arm and she kisses me all over my face. She then looks at ZJ and smiles and he giggles.

"Hi ZJ! How you doin' cutie pie?," Nia said in her baby voice. She kisses ZJ all over his face and he blows bubbles again and Nia laughs.

"Daddy I want to help feed ZJ ok?," Nia said.

"Ok pretty girl no problem. He loves it when you feed him," I said. I kiss her forehead and she smiles and then pecks my lips. I set Nia down and I hold ZJ close as I start to make his breakfast. It's been five months since Yani gave birth to our little boy ZJ. ZJ is an absolute joy to have. He is the sweetest little baby. He is always really happy. I think he got that from Yani. He never makes a fuse. If he needs or wants something he might whimper at the most, but that's it. He mostly smiles and I love that. His smile is everything to me. He looks a lot like me. He's like my twin. He has a beautiful caramel complexion, with my eyes, lips, eyebrows, ears, just everything. He got his texture of hair from Yani, but everything else is all me. I love him to absolute death. ZJ, Nia and Yani are my world. I would do anything for any of them. Once I have breakfast ready, I sit down at the table with ZJ in my lap. ZJ is eating a bit of baby food now, along with breast milk. Hopefully by six months we can introduce him to dairy milk. Yani pumps milk every day, so we have enough for the day. Yani is working part time to start and then she will gradually go back to full time. Nia sits next to me and I open the baby food and I hand the baby spoon to Nia. Nia takes a bit of baby peaches and puts it on a spoon and then puts it to ZJ's lips. ZJ opens his mouth and eats the food and smiles afterwards.

"It's good huh ZJ?," Nia said. Nia kisses ZJ's cheek and continues to feed him while also eating her cereal.

"So daddy we are going to have the special dinner for mommy this weekend right?," Nia asked.

"That's right baby girl. I called her mommy and she wants to be here, so I am going to surprise Yani and fly her mommy up here," I said.

"Oh yay!! I can't wait to see my grandma. She's so pretty and nice like mommy," Nia said.

"That's right she is. I have everything set. The restaurant, the ring I even bought her a beautiful dress."

"Oh daddy you're so sweet. I can't wait for you and mommy to get married. And have more babies," Nia said giggling.

"Oh you want another sibling huh?," I said while laughing.

"Oh yes I want like three or four more," Nia said excitedly. My eyes widen in shock and then I laugh loudly.

"Three or four more?! Really??," I asked.

"Yes! You and mommy make pretty babies too," Nia said while smiling. I lean in and I kiss her lips multiple times. I love my baby girl so much. Well I know I wouldn't mind having a house full of kids and the process of making babies with Yani is so much fun. Once Nia is done feeding ZJ, I wipe his mouth and then I put the bottle of milk to his lips. He opens his mouth and sucks on the bottle and I smile as I look down at him and he looks at me. The love I have for this little baby amazes me. This is my son and I still can't believe it at times. Once ZJ is done with the bottle, I put him on my chest and I rub his back gently. A few minutes later, I feel a pair of soft hands massage my shoulders. 

"Is that my queen?," I said. I hear Yani giggle and she walks to my view and we smile widely at each other.

"Morning baby," Yani said.

"Morning gorgeous," I said. Yani leans down and pecks my lips multiple times. Nia comes up to Yani and Yani hugs her tightly and kisses her forehead.

"Morning pretty girl," Yani said.

"Morning mommy," Nia said. Nia sits back down and Yani smiles big as I turn ZJ to face her. ZJ smiles and kicks his legs and we all laugh.

"Is that my baby? Huh??," Yani exclaimed in her baby voice. I kiss ZJ's cheek and then I hand ZJ too Yani and she kisses him all over his face and ZJ squeals out loud. He loves his mommy. 

"Hi baby boy! How are you huh?," Yani asked.

"Say I'm good mommy and I'm full since daddy and Nia fed me," I said in my baby voice. Yani laughs and kisses my cheek.

"You ate huh baby? Probably going to be ready for your morning nap soon," Yani said. Yani holds ZJ close to his chest and rubs his back as she kisses his forehead repeatedly.

"Sit down baby let me fix you some breakfast," I offered.

"I can do it baby," Yani said.

"I got you baby don't worry. Sit down and relax," I said.

"Thank you baby you're so sweet." I kiss her lips and she sits down at the table. I stand up and I start to fix breakfast for my baby. After about 20 minutes, I hear a knock on the door. I look at Yani as she looks at me.

"Expecting anyone?," I asked.

"No baby," Yani said. I shrug my shoulders as I walk to the door. I open the door and I am shocked when I see two police officers.

"Hi....can I help you?," I asked.

"Are you Zane?," one of the police officers asked.

"Yes sir," I said slightly nervously.

"We need you to come with us."
