Adjusting

Emma was up when Sienna needed to be fed and changed. Killian was up with his daughter, he would changed Sienna's diapers and walked around the room with her letting Emma the sleep that she needs. He knew Sienna was missing her twin sister. He took her to her nursery. "This is your nursery, baby love. Papa made your crib. Your Mama chose the blankets , sheets, and your cute outfits." Sienna cries less. "You like your bedroom?" Sienna looks around. "You and Hope will be in the same room." He gave his daughter a tour of her bedroom. He sits on the rocking chair.

"You made me Papa from the very beginning. I only met your Mama and Henry less than a year ago when your Mommy returned home after being away for so long. She came to my pub where I met her and Henry. She was on the run from Henry's father who was very mean to her. I just knew she needed someone to care for her and be the right man for her. I fell in love with your Mommy from the moment I lay eyes on her. She surprised her parents with Henry afterwards." Sienna looked up at her Papa. "You want to know more?" Sienna chews on her Papa's hook. He continued telling her how he and Emma got to know each other. Emma hears Killian's conversation with Sienna on the baby monitor and continues to sleep.

The following morning, Emma got up and took a very needed shower being covered in baby puke, poop and pee. Killian was sleeping with Sienna on his chest. She kissed him on the head for letting her sleep and being up with Sienna. She got dressed for the day and packed milk supplies for Hope. She left enough milk for Sienna for Killian to bottle feed. Sienna wakes up crying. "Hi, baby girl." She holds her daughter in her arms. "You had a fun night talking with Papa? You are hungry now." She takes her daughter into her nursery to breastfeed her on the rocking chair with a boppy pillow. "I am going to visit Hope today in the NICU. You are going to be here with Papa and Henry."

Henry enters the room. "Mommy and Sea-Sea!"

"Hi, kid. I am feeding your sister."

"Is she okay?"

"Yes."

"She cwy a lot at night."

Emma chuckles. "Yes, she does. She needs to get used to sleeping at night."

"She cwy for Hope too?"

"Yes, she is missing your sister at night."

"I pway wif her today. She be happen at home wif me."

"You can play with her while I visit Hope in the hospital."

"When she come home? I want both sissys home."

"Her doctor will tell us when she come home. Her lungs need to get stronger."

"Like Sea-Sea's lungs?"

"Yes."

David arrives at his daughter's house, using his spare keys. "Emma?"

"Dad, I am up here!"

David arrives to the nursery. "There is my grandson!"

"Gramps!"

He hugged his grandson. "I always end up seeing you breastfeeding."

Emma chuckles. "It is alright, Dad. Sienna is almost finished eating."

"Killian is sleeping?"

"Yes, he was up all night with Sienna, when I was not feeding her."

"Your Mom was with Hope most of the night. She came home a few hours ago."

"I am going to visit Hope this morning."

"I can drive you."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I can." Sienna finishes eating. He hands her a burp rag. Emma burps Sienna. "Hi, Sienna!" He takes his granddaughter from his daughter. "You are happy to be with your Mommy and Henry at home?" Sienna moves around.
