Friday, 7:56 am

I roll over in bed, and a small body belonging to a certain little girl I know comes into my view.  I have no idea when Aviella got into bed with me and Justin, probably because I was literally knocked out.

I pick up my phone from the nightstand and start my morning routine of having absolutely no life while I stalk people on Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat.

"Morning, baby." Justin says.

"Hey." I turn my phone off and drop it on the bed.

"Feel better?" He reaches his arm over Aviella and tucks a loose strand of hair behind my ear.

"A lot." I smile and Aviella sighs, laying on her stomach.

Her shirt was slightly lifted, revealing the waistband of her leggings and the small of her back. Justin rubs her exposed back and she lifts her head up to sneeze.

"Who touch me?" She says.

"Daddy." I tell her immediately.

She looks at him and he shrugs.

"Who let you in our bed?"

She lets her head drop back onto a pillow, face first.

"That's what I thought. Any more questions?"

"Shut up, Justin." I sit up and pull Aviella into my lap.

She sticks her tongue out at him and he nods.

"I got you, Aviella. I got you."

"Can we go swimming today? Please?" Aviella looks at me, ignoring Justin completely.

"That's a good question. We do have a pool." I answer her.

"We definitely do. That we never use." Justin says.

"Is that a yes?" Aviella asks.

"Sure. After we eat, because I'm hungry."

"Breakfast!" Aviella squeals.

"Come help me make it. Mommy can do whatever she wants because she doesn't help me at all." Aviella smiles and jumps into Justin's arms.

"I cut some onions yesterday." I tell Justin, getting out of bed.

"And your finger." He adds.

I giggle, heading towards the bathroom. I brush my teeth and wash my face before Aviella shows up in the doorway.

"Daddy said I need to brush my teeth before I can help him." She tells me.

"Okay. Come on." I take her upstairs and into her bathroom to help her brush her teeth.

"All done." I lift her off the counter and place her on the ground before she runs out of the bathroom.

I turn off the light before going back downstairs to finish my usual routine. I don't put on any makeup today, since I don't feel like it. I decide on taking a shower later and walk into the kitchen where Justin is showing Aviella how to do something with a fork.

"We're making omelettes." Aviella tells me.

"Sounds good." I sit at the island with my phone and watch them both make their way around the kitchen.

"Mommy, get off Snapchat. Your omi latte is ready." Aviella says.

I giggle as Justin helps her place my plate in front of me.
