Triplets are 9 months old. Elliott is 6 months.
Harry we should probably go shopping for presents, I say as a plop next to him on the couch.
It's the 23rd cant we wait until tomorrow? He asks as he changes the channel.
No! Tomorrow is Louis's birthday. We have to get presents today! I say as I take the remote from his hand.
Fine, let's go, he says standing up. I'll get Darcy ready. You can get the other two ready. Wheres Gabbi?
She's at Colin's. She's coming home tomorrow, I tell him as I walk upstairs. I open the girls room and tickle Michelle's tummy. She opens her eyes and smiles. Hey baby girl, I coo as I pick her up. I lay her on the changing table and grab her clothes. Long sleeve red onesie that says Merry Christmas. With blue jeans and some socks. I change her diaper then slip her onesie over her head. I snap the crotch buttons and slip her pants on. I grab some fuzzy pink socks with non slip bottoms and put them on. She kicks me in the nose and I gasp.
Michelle! That hurt! I yell at her as I hold my nose. She looks at me in horror and starts crying. Oh baby, I'm so sorry, I coo trying to settle her down. She stops and sniffles. I pick her up and have her sit. I grab a reindeer antler hat and put it on her. I set her on the floor and go get Enya.
I dress her the same as Michelle and set her next to her. I pick out Darcy's clothes and throw them at Harry as I pass our room. Hey! I was gonna get her ready! He shouts as I walk by. I wait for him to go with the girls before I go into the bathroom. I turn the shower on super hot and strip from my clothes. Once I get in the shower I just let the water warm me up.
***
I step out of the shower and into the freezing cold air. I grab the closest towel and wrap myself up. I run to my room and I'm engulfed in warm arms. Harry! Where are the girls? I stammer trying to break free from his arms.
They are in their car seats asleep waitinf downstairs. Now get dressed. We got presents to buy, he says releasing me onto the bed. I stand up and drop my towel. He covers his eyes and I giggle. I grab some under garments and put them on. I grab a red sweater and some blue jeans. Once I put them on I grab some brown tall boots and my yellow scarf. I brush through my hair and grab a white crochet benie. I hurry downstairs where Harry is loading the last girl.
Im ready, I chirp excitedly. He smiles and grabs Darcy. I grab the diaper bags and lock the door. We climb into the van and head to the mall.
****
Could you have bought anymore presents!? Harry asks practically tripping over all the bags.
Sorry, we had to shop for about 11 people, I say pushing the triplets in their stroller. I unlock the van and open the trunk. I take the bags off of the stroller and set them in the trunk. I grab the girls one by one and buckle them into their car seats. I sit down in the passenger seat and lay back. Harry! Hurry up. Im tired. It's getting late and the girls wanna go to bed!
Oh shut up. Your the one who thought that every one needed 5-10 gifts, he jokingly scolds me.
Let's get home gives the girls a bath, put them to bed and wrap gifts, he says as he shuts the trunk. He gets in the car and we head home.****
Come on Michelle, let's go take a bath, I coo as I follow her crawling to the bathroom. Im carrying Enya and Harry is already waiting with Darcy. I grab three small plastic baskets (meant for clothes) and set them in the tub. We strip the girls from their clothing and set them in the baskets. The baskets keep them in one spot with out falling. It lets the water through and the toys stay in. Enya is very curious about the bath and water. Michelle loves it. And Darcy tolerates it. We scrub them up and rinse them off.
