ONE YEAR OLD
Can grabbed Nova before she tried to grab papers off Tin's desk in Tin's home office, Tin would get an ear full when he got home for leaving the door open again. Tin's home office is the only place Nova ever wanted to be when Tin is not home, she is such a Daddy's girl it isn't funny. She would be a Papa's girl when Tin left but when Daddy comes back, she abandons Can and immediately crawls to Tin. She had mastered the crawl and was on the way to becoming a pull up and take a step master. Nova is independent when it comes to playing with her toys or eating, a little more on the toys than eating. She tries to be more independent eating but ends up with applesauce all over her. Nova would just laugh which would make her parents smile even though she was becoming sticky which ends up with them having to give her another bath. She was just like her parents, laid back like Tin and loud and stubborn like Can. Though she is like both of her parents in personality wise she looks more like Can than Tin. She has Can's face except the eyebrow which looks like Tin's. God have mercy on them when she grows up.
"You know you aren't supposed to be in here Nova." Can said closing the door as he left the room. Nova babbled as Can went back to the living room.
"Your Daddy is getting an earful when he gets home." He said right as the door opened and Tin walked in.
"What am I getting an earful of?" He asked.
"You left your office door open again and she almost pulled all of your papers off your desk. You know that she is learning to pull herself up and you know she loves to grab things. What if she had pulled the papers off and your rather large and heavy folders landed on her head." Can said as Tin took Nova from him.
"I thought I closed that, I'm sorry." Tin said.
"Just close the door or put up the gate." Can said before sitting down on the couch.
"Has she said anything yet?" Tin asked.
"No" he sighed. "I tried really hard this time, all she does is smile and babble."
"Maybe we should just let it happen naturally." Tin said sitting down next to him.
"She is going to say your name I just know it." Can said.
"You don't know that, my nephew's first word was no." Tin said.
"I heard they learn that word quick." Can chuckled as they watched Nova get down off Tin's lap and hold on to one of his legs.
"Has she taken her first-" Tin said but was interrupted by Nova letting go of his leg. She took a few wobbly steps towards a toy she liked, she did it like it was nothing before landing on her butt to pick up the toy. Tin and Can stared at her before looking at each other.
"She just walked like it was nothing." Can smiled. They both stood up and went over to her and picked her up, they kissed her cheek and told her that she was a good girl making her smile and stick part of the toy in her mouth. They spent a good thirty minutes getting Nova to walk to them.
A few hours later, Tin sighed as he held a tired Nova in his arms in Nova's room, she was refusing to sleep for some reason which means they were in for a long night. Can came in with her sippy cup of milk looking tired.
"Here's her milk" he said handing it to Tin.
"If this doesn't work, we are screwed." Tin said giving the sippy cup to her. Nova looked at him with angry eyes before looking at Tin and throwing her bottle down and yelled.
"Da-Da" They froze at that. Her first word. Can knew she wasn't going to say Papa since she was a big Daddy's girl but a small part of him hoped she would say Papa.
"Yeah sweetheart, I'm your dad" Tin smiled. Nova wiggled and scrunched her face before crying, she tried to push Tin away and cried more when she couldn't so she reached for Can.
"Pa-Pa" she cried. Can's heart lifted and he smiled before taking her from Tin. She put her head on his shoulder and slowly calmed down till she fell asleep, Can looked at Tin who was looking at them with totally love and adoration. Maybe she is a Papa's girl as much as she is a daddy's girl.
