Duchess Holds Forth...
Having The Man home everyday has been an amazing journey. We are all learning to live with each other all the time, rather than long visits. The best part of this has been the one on one time he gets with The Girls. It's enough to bring a tear to your eye, if you were actually sitting outside the door, around the corner easedropping, and then sneaking in for a picture.... like I was.The Man went in to the royal chamber of Duchess to announce that the royal bedchamber had better get clean or it was all going out the royal window... However this is what I found...
Duchess is holding forth from daddy's lap, with her bible in her lap, announcing to her babies the way the cow will eat the cabbage in this royal house! First off, she began by cooking up some "food" in her handy kitchen while The Man held all the hungry babies. She kept warning him that they were gassy and that one had pooped, be careful there Daddy, he's a stinker. To give him credit, The Man was overheard volunteering to change said stinky diaper, to which Duchess announced that she'd just bathe him tomorrow. Dear Lord, she did not get those mothering skills from me!Next came the dinner conversation, well they are having pizza. Except for him (him being the cute IKEA pink hippopotamus) cause he is fat and he needs something else.... The Man suggested a salad. After feeding, they proceeded to prepare the babies for bed, The Man still holding most of them. Duchess whips out her bible and announced that they must be read to so they will sleep. That parenting skill DID come from me thank you very much!
The Man suggested that they put the babies to sleep and go watch TV together. At this point, they both dumped the babies on the floor and ran me over outside the door to get to the livingroom.
Moment over.
