Coco and B wake up at the same time sighing and locking around. They had the most eventual and busy day and are still exhausted.
Coco pov
Shit Larry is supposed to be dropping off Alex at 11:00 am and I'm am still exhausted. Me and Alex are definitely taking a good nap before heading to Tyler's house.
B: good morning
Coco: good morning baby
B: shit we gotta get you home
Coco: I know I don't wanna leave you
B:shit me either
They both get up as coco yawns grabbing her clothes and hopping in the shower as B throws on clothes deciding to take a shower when he comes back after dropping off coco since he doesn't pick up Noah until 2:00 pm.
10:40 am
B pulls up to cocos house and parks. They look at each other neither wanting to say goodbye.
B: so what days do you have Alex
Coco: Sunday - half of Thursday why
B: trying to figure out a schedule for us to see each other
Coco: yea it's kind of early to be meeting kids plus I would want you to meet blaze first
B: understandable and I'm not ready to have that talk with Mia
Coco: ok then we'll I'll see you boo
B and coco get out the car and coco jumps on B wrapping her legs around his waist burying her face in his neck.
B: *laughs* ima miss you to mamas but I gotta go 
Coco: *sighs* fine bye
She climbs down and kisses his lips multiple times before he gets in the car and she heads to her front door. She unlocks it turning around waving one more time before he drives off.
11:20 am
*knock on door*
Coco gets up heading to the front door unlocking it's blaze pulls up . She is met with blaze and a sleeping Alex. One thing Alex is gonna do is sleep and he's about to be 7 months which is exciting for blaze and coco their baby has grown so fast and that's means coco and blaze have known each other almost 2 1/2 years.
Coco: hey Larry

He walks out as she shuts and locks the door. She unstraps Alex putting him in his mobile crib as she grabs her phone to call Tyler
Calling Tyler🤣
Tyler: hello
Coco: omg we haven't talked since the birthday party
Tyler: my bad I been busy since blaze eased up on the drugs and gave me more responsibility
Coco: it's cool I've been busy myself
Tyler: I see you been posting new niggas on yo timeline
Coco: *laughs* why you say it like that but I was wondering if later me and Alex can come visit you
Tyler: yea I anit doing shit plus I missed lil man
Coco: ok
Tyler ends call
Coco gets up and grabs a blanket looking at Alex one more time as he sleeps.  She closes her blinds to get rid of the natural light making the living room darker as she snuggles on the couch going to sleep.
1:25 pm
She awakes to hearing Alex whine. She stretches and gets up opening the blinds back as the natural light pierces through. She goes over to him picking him up
Coco: hey big man what's wrong * kisses his cheek*
Alex rubs his face and lays his head in cocos chest whining and squirming.
Coco: you need your diaper changed baby let's change you diaper
She walks into Alex room and lays him in his crib. She decides last minute to give him a bath. She grabs his seat for the bath and puts it there. She grabs his Johnson and Johnson baby wash and his rubber duckie and puts it in the bath. She turns on the water putting it just in the middle as he starts to whine. She gives him his pacifier which calms him temporarily as she finds an outfit for him to outside because it's chilly outside which is weird it was hot yesterday.
She grabs his grey nike onesie
Alex outfit

She turns the water off  and picks up Alex removing his pacifier as she lays him on the changing table taking off his dirty diaper discarding it and taking off his clothes
