Ariana 💕

Two days til Christmas and one day til my boys are two weeks old. Time is truly flying by. I have spent a very significant amount of time in their nursery since they were born because they require 24-hour surveillance.

We just set up our Christmas tree yesterday afternoon and still have yet to get gifts. I would send Kyle to do it but he's a guy...and he's pretty busy. Except for today.

"Babe, get up." I say, tapping his torso.

"Why?" He groans tiredly.

"We have to go Christmas shopping." I rub my eyes. I didn't go to sleep until 4 this morning.

He sits up in the bed, looking around for a bit. I was already dressed and ready to go, he was the one that wanted to sleep all day.

"The quicker we get in, the quicker we get out. Come on." I say, walking across the hall to Violet's room.

She was setting up her stuffed animals on the bed. When she finished, she turned to face me.

"Ready?" I ask.

She nods. I hold my hand out to her and she grabs it. I lead her to the twins room so I can get them ready. She sits in the chair, that I usually sit in, and waits for me.

I get them both dressed in red footsie onesies that say 'Thing 1' and 'Thing 2', followed by matching blue hats. Aiden starts to whimper a little and I shush him. I just fed the both of them less than an hour ago.

I carry each one in each arm and begin making my way downstairs, Violet leading the way. I sit Aiden off in his car seat, before doing the same for Jordan. Then I adjust the both of them so they're in correctly. I grab the stroller and make my way out to the car.

After I get the stroller in the trunk, I make my way back into the house. I grab both car seats and head back out to the car, making sure Violet is close behind. Then I get the boys settled in first before helping Violet.

"I'm gonna beat his ass." I mumble.

Just as I close the back door to the Range, Kyle is coming toward the car. He was in basketball shorts and a t-shirt. My outfit looked more bummy compared to his; I was in a nude sweatshirt with black sweatpants and my hair was in a messy bun with loose strands. Black slip on Vans to complete the look. I didn't exactly plan to look good, but knowing Kyle, the first thing he'll try to say is I look good. Only because he knows he's on my shit list right now.

I open the passenger door and get in, closing it behind me. He gets into the drivers seat, grunting as he did. I do my seatbelt and wait for him to start the car. As he does, I make sure the child locks are on.

"You look nice." He said, checking the rear view before backing up.

"Thanks." I mumble.

He looks at me quickly. "What's up with you?"

I shrug and he sighs.

Help is always appreciated Kyle.

"We should've bought the other car with us." Kyle comments. "I don't think either of us planned on buying all this shit."

"Your daughter has to have a Christmas Kyle." I mumble. "I don't think she cares too much about designer shit."

He looks down at me. "Why you so aggy today?"

I ignore his question, looking at the Optimus Prime and Bumble Bee toy. They were about 2 feet tall and perfect. I think that's something Carter will like. Now I need to find something for my niece. Yes, Ariel is having a girl!
