"Harry, sausage or eggs?" I call to him from the kitchen.

"Um, both please. With some toast and jam. Oo and don't forget the orange juice," he replies as his requests become greedy.

"Lazy ass," I mutter to myself.

"Mama!" Michelle screams from her high chair. I glance in her direction and she is signing more. I taught them the basics in sign language. They don't cry and fuss as much. They know please, more, thank you, and milk.

"You want more?" I ask in a baby voice. She vigorously signs please and I give her some more cherrios. Enya signs more then please so I give her some too. Darcy just sits there playing with the cherrios she already has.

"Lizzie, the bacon is burning!" Gabbi yells as she walks by. I turn around and quickly take the bacon off the fryer. I put it on a plate and fan out the smoke.

"I burnt the bacon babe!" I tell Harry as I hold a strip up.

"Give it here, I'll eat it," he replies while watching football. I bring it to him and he takes it all. "Thanks" he says with a mouth full. I push him in the head and walk back to the kitchen. I take the toast out of the toaster and set it on the plates. Quickly I scramble some eggs and set them with the toast. The oven beeps just as I put the pan in the sink. I take the sausage out and add it to the plates.

"Breakfast is done!" I yell through the house. Gabbi runs down the hall upstairs and Harry comes from the living room. He has one piece of bacon in each hand.

"You ate all the bacon!" Gabbi whines at Harry. He smiles a messy smile and eats the last two.

"Here," I say as I hand them both a plate of food.

"Orange juice?" they both ask at the same time. I open the fridge and give them each bottles of orange juice. "I guess this will do," they both groan as they take the orange juice. I kick them both in the butt as they leave and I snicker a bit.

"Mama! Mama! Mama!" the girls all scream. I grab their sippy cups and give it to them. They all grab them and start drinking.

I sit down on a stool and eat my own plate of food. Gabbi and Harry bring there plates to the kitchen and set them on the counter. "Excuse me?" I ask. They look at me with confusion. "I didn't stutter." They look at each other then their plates. Finally the light bulb turns on and they put their plates in the dishwasher. "Thank you," I say as they walk back to the living room. I finish my breakfast and put my plate in the dishwasher.

The girls are done and have tossed their sippys on the ground already. I take them out of their highchairs and set them on the ground. They still don't wanna walk. Standing is even a rarity in this house. They crawl into the living room and play with their blocks. I clean their trays and collect their cups.

I decide to check the calendar and see what's planned for today. We do a major part of wedding planning every Wednesday. And today is Wednesday the 24th of February. Today we have dress shopping written on the calendar. That means dresses for me, Gabbi, Chloe, Erin, Jozee, and the triplets. I grab the mini notebook from the calender pocket and look at the extra details.

"Harry, remember you, Liam, and Niall are watching the baby boys from noon till 9ish," I tell him as I bring the notebook to him. He takes it from my hands and looks it over.

"You deserve the break. You need your gal time," he says as he hands the notebook back. I smile and give him a peck on the lips. I take the notebook and put it back. It's 10am right now I guess the girls should go down for a nap.
