No Baby

July 4, 2016

"Adan. Do you want to be a good boy and let mama put you in you shirt?" I ask my 5 month and some change year old son.

Adan blows a bubble and squirms, trying to get away from me.

"Baby, please. Mama needs to get sister ready." I begged Adan.

I'm not one to force my babies to do anything, so I ask them.

Adan still stayed stubborn.

"Fine. No Banana then." I shrug my shoulders, hiding my smile because I knew Bananas are his favorite.

"Will you let mama do it now?" I asked him, to which he responded by laying still.

I quickly slip on the royal blue shirt I'd chosen for him and the white shorts, paired with white shoes.

Adan's hair has grown long, and its color had darkened drastically, to the point where it looks black.

My son looked like he was going to be a heartbreaker when he got older, his pouty pink lips, beautiful golden brown skin and grey eyes. So cute.

After I dressed him, combed and styled his hair I'd hurriedly ran him to Deja who was downstairs so she could keep an eye on him while I woke up and dressed Heavenly.

"Baby girl." I coo, rubbing her back as a way to wake her up.

Heavenly reacted better to a gentle wake up call, while Adan needed to be woken up quick and fast, otherwise he'd fall back asleep.

I was awarded with Heavenly opening her eyes ad smiling at me. My cute baby.

Even though Adan and Heavenly are fraternal twins, they look almost identical except she's a girl and he's a boy.

He skin color was similiar to my own, and her hair was identical to Adan's, her eye color was blue though, still the blue she was born with.

I picked my daughter up, gave her a quick bath, and dressed her up in the same outfit as he brother, except I tied her hair up into a small bun.

She did it without any fuss, and I was eternally grateful.

"C'Mon hunny. Let's go get some food." I smile at her, bringing her downstairs to her twin brother to whom she instantly clutches onto.

"Thanks Deja." I called out while I was going into the kitchen to make A and H some food.

Adan heavily prefers Banana while Heavenly loves sweet potato, and I love making the pureed food from scratch.

After I finished making their food, I got a towel to lay over my chest and a bib per child.

I grabbed the first twin I saw, and she so happened to be Heavenly, my messy eater. You'd think it'd be Adan who doesn't know foot from fist, but he's my easiest child to feed.

"Heavenly. This is how this is going to go, you're going to eat without making a mess, and then I'm going to take a shower so we can all match. Okay?" I demand, setting her in her high chair after stripping her.

Why'd I have to be so damn slow and bathe them before feeding them?

She blows her lips, making a sound as she bounces and claps her hands, trying to grab my hair.

"Baby, no. Mama has to hurry up." I sigh.

These kids be doing too much all the time, but I love the little boogers. Even when they get sticky shit in my hair.

I fed Heavenly without problems to heavy, and feeding Adan is always easy so I was done after 15 minutes.

I wasted no time in wiping them up and re-clothing them, and then rushing to take my shower.
