"did daddy get the wrong size." i say laughing

"phil, it's a bit big." i say calling him in

"shit, i got the small." he says

"in children sizes?" i ask

"yeah." he replies

"he's still classed as a baby/toddler i think." i say

"damn it." phil says

"it's fine, he'll grow into it." i say

"you're right, so i've put juice and snacks in his bag, what else?" phil asks me

"nope, that's perfect." i say

"okay, we better be off. hurry up jack, what's he doing?" phil asks

"i don't know, upstairs somewhere." i say

phil puts bentley down on the stairs and puts his arms around me, i go on my tiptoes and kiss him. he pushes a piece of my hair behind my ear.

"you're so beautiful." phil says

"thank you." i say with a massive grin on my face

"jack!" phil shouts again

"coming." the birmingham accent says

jack comes down with cali in his arms and hands her to me. he puts his trainers on and leaves the house.

me and cali stand in the doorway.

"wave bye to daddy." i say holding her arm and moving it

phil blows a kiss before getting in the drivers seat and pulling out the drive. i close the front door when i can no longer see the car.

"lets go get your sister up, she's a sleepyhead." i say

i take cali upstairs and put her in her cot while i get addi up.

"what outfit should we put your girls in today?" i ask myself going through their wardrobes

i dress them both up and put their hair in two buns. i made them look quite nice, i was going to take them on a walk but nothing special.

they were in matching outfits

*what they both looked like*

i take a photo of them and send it to phil

"right girls lets go get your shoes on." i say picking them both up

i take them downstairs and sit them on the lowest stair.

"walk." addi says

"we're going on a walk yeah." i say

"walk." she says again

"you're going in the pram though aren't you." i say

"walk." she says

"you can't walk." i say as she starts having a meltdown, "you can try, but you can't walk sweetie."

i pick them both up again and put cali in the pram, addi won't let me.

"hold my hand then." i say reaching down

i'm more dragging her along then she is walking, and it's very slow. i stop the pram and bend down and pick her up, i strap her in the pram and she's very not happy about it.

"addi calm down." i say rubbing her head as she's screaming, "what are you gonna be like as a teenager?"

i don't take them out for long, only ten minutes. addi managed to cry the whole time, so when we got home i took her to her room and put her straight to sleep. i gave cali some lunch before my phone rings, i see it's phil and answer.

"hey what's up?" i ask

"we're on our way back, bentleys eaten all his snacks but i think he's still quite hungry." phil says

"i've got lunch ready, cali's eating hers." i say

"what about addi?" he asks

"she threw a fit, i took them out on a walk and she wanted to walk and not go in a pram. but she can't walk and didn't understand, so i put her in the pram." i say

"that girl knows what she wants." he says laughing

"i've put her to sleep, she's obviously very tired. i also don't want a screaming baby down here." i say

"don't blame you, we'll be ten minutes at most." phil says as i hang up

"good girl!" i say seeing cali's eaten all her food, "come here." i say picking her up out of her high chair

i take her into the living room and put her on my chest, i hold her tight as she closes her eyes. i turn the tv on and watch the news.

i hear keys in the lock and the door open, i don't get up because i don't want to wake cali up.

"in here." i say

i see phil enter with bentley in his arms, he reaches out as he sees me. me and phil carefully swap babies and i kiss bentleys cheek.

"did you have fun?" i ask as bentley smiles at me

i give him a hug before standing up and carrying him on my hip, "lets go get you some lunch."

"can you go check on moody boots?" i ask phil

"yep, i'll be back." he says putting cali in her high chair even though she's already eaten

i give bentley his plate of food and grab some for myself aswell, suddenly i see a manly figure walk in with a tired little girl on his chest.

"she was awake, also crying." phil says

"do you feel better now?" i ask her as she gives me a death stare

"oops, i'm on someone bad list." i say making phil laugh, "let me have her." i say reaching out

addi squirms as phil passes her to me, i give her a big hug and kiss the top of her head.

"oi missy." i say making her giggle

"ma." she says

"i love you." i say
