Author's Note:
Hey guys! I'm not dead! Just getting used to a new house and trying not to fail my sophomore year and not have a mental breakdown! *laughs nervously* In all honesty, I apologize it's taken so long for me to update. I just moved and it's been really stressful. I didn't even want to LOOK at my stories for a good week and a half because of all the stress. But I'm back now! Just don't expect weekly updates. I can't stick to a schedule because it makes me not want to write. So yeah. Enjoy!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Percy & Annabeth
Percy had slowly begun to notice that you were becoming more vocal over the course of several weeks. He didn't ponder on it at first, of course, but when you started making noises to indicate what you wanted, he started paying attention. Annabeth had told him that the older you got, the more you would try to communicate. And since babies can't fully communicate until they're 3 to 4 years old, it's frustrating to the infant. Which is what causes the terrible twos. (This is true. The terrible twos are terrible because toddlers can't fully communicate what they want and as a result, they get frustrated and throw tantrums. My mom can confirm this.) Percy was excited that you were slowly learning to speak. But he was also terrified at the idea of you randomly screaming and throwing tantrums in public. Annabeth had tried assuring him that the terrible twos are different for every baby and that you might not be the terrible twos poster child. (That was me. I was practically the terrible twos poster child. XD) Percy was unconvinced.
Jason
He had been expecting you to start talking soon. At least, that's what the parenting books had been telling him. (Those things are garbage. Every baby is different and they develop differently. I do not have kids btw.) But you were a stubborn one and refused to cooperate. You were going to babble at your own time and no one is going to say otherwise. Looks like your going to have your hands full Jason. Good luck.
Leo
You started babbling the moment you learned how. Granted, you aren't very social towards strangers. You're a shy introvert and would much rather stay home with your father than play with other children your age. Leo was perfectly content with this but trying to get you to shut up was a struggle. It was cute the first two weeks, but it was starting to get annoying. He was actually contemplating taking you to the park because that's the only you DON'T babble. But the more he thought it, the more he decided to just deal with it. He wasn't going to torture you with social interaction with others just so he could get some peace and quiet.
Nico & Will
They loved you with all they're hearts and souls, don't think they don't, but they were wishing you'd shut up. You were babbling and babbling and babbling and it was getting on their nerves. Nico had tried everything to get you to stop. From bribery to flat-out begging, nothing worked. Will was perfectly content on just staying in a room on the other side the house. The only time you would shut up was when you went to sleep. Those little 2 hours of silence when you took your naps were heaven to the two men's ears. Eventually, you learned that you were irritating your fathers with your constant babbling and started to quiet down a bit. You were rewarded with some Pepita chocolate cookies. (Those are Italian. I had to look up some Italian candy.)
