Shourtney AU - Loving So Hard (Mature)

#92 - The First Month

*Courtney*

One month. It had been one entire month since mine and Shayne's baby girl was born, and life was absolutely perfect. Actually, that's an understatement. It was better than perfect.

Skylar was such an angel, and she made us laugh every day by doing the simplest, stupidest things. Sure, the act of changing dirty diapers and frequent cleaning up of baby vomit weren't all that enjoyable, but I guess it's all part of being a mom.

My belly was almost back to its regular size now, deflating ever so slightly by the day. Shayne was so sweet about everything though, reassuring me of my good looks and whatnot. I honestly couldn't imagine where I'd be without him. He was more than my other half, we were simply one in the same.

Olivia and Kari were probably the most frequent visitors, happily offering to babysit Skylar whenever possible. Luckily for Olivia, Sam thoroughly enjoyed it too, and so Shayne and I were lucky enough to take a couple nights off to ourselves to recuperate and... spend some alone time.

Skylar was such a joy to be around though that my husband and I really couldn't imagine anything worse than being away from her for more than a few hours. She was ours. Our creation. 'Shayne and Courtney's gift to the world.' And she was the most valuable, important, utterly irreplaceable thing to the both of us.

Jango absolutely loved Skylar, and of course we ensured to keep him on the lead when he was around her, just in case he got protective or jealous, but so far all was good. His ears perked up whenever he saw her, and he'd ecstatically wag his tail and sniff the air, sticking his tongue out like an absolute dumbass and giving Shayne and I literal puppy dog eyes in an attempt to convince us to play around with her. Skylar was too young though, and Jango didn't have any concept of boundaries, plus, he wasn't all that aware of his own strength, therefore, it simply wasn't safe enough to let him loose around her yet. However, Shayne and I couldn't wait for Skylar to be old enough to play around with him. Our two adorable children, if you will, with one being far more hairy and stinky, well, perhaps not the latter seeing how often Skylar's diapers needed changing!

The Smosh fans had all been introduced to Skylar via a video shot at our house just a few days after she was born, with Shayne and I sat in the centre of the couch, cradling our baby girl between us. Everyone else surrounded the packed-in, hive-like Smoshy conglomeration.

My family were present too, with my mom and dad continuously bursting into tears at the fact that they were now grandparents. I blissfully obliged to reminding them of their old age, and I was met with a fierce telling-off, as was Shayne, in a playful manner of course!

The first month had been arduous and long and completely draning, sure, plus, Shayne and I probably got about thirty hours of sleep between us at the most, but we didn't care. Skylar was our everything, and we'd do absolutely anything for her. Anything.

A/N: Hey everyone. Again, I'm sorry if this seems rushed, I'm writing whenever I get enough free time, so I hope you enjoyed the chapter nonetheless!
