With the children in tow behind her, Romeo and Moon arguing with each other about something, and Greg slowly toddling behind her, not to mention her swollen stomach - she was the perfect image of a genuine soccer mom, well other then her oh so young appearance. This cold and wet weather was making everyone a little grumpy along with Kaleb’s long shift this week, apparently someone got sick and he was covering for him. A sigh escaped her as she sent the kids inside to get dried off and cleaned up before she went about picking up Greg and laying him on the couch proceeding to strip him of his clothes - he had taken a topple into a mud puddle - and put a warmer outfit on him. The last thing she needed was any of the kids getting sick. “Hey, guys…” She called out to the twins. “I think Aladdin is on, do you want to watch that and mommy will make you some sandwiches?” She took their enthusiastic jog to the couch in front of the TV as a yes and just shook her head with a laugh, settling Greg in-between them before she headed into the kitchen to find some peanut butter and jelly. Even a simple trip to the lodge was exciting for the kids, they just didn’t want to be cooped up in the house anymore and honestly neither did she. A few moments later she came out with the sandwiches and juice boxes, passing them out before she headed back into the kitchen to wash her hands and then pull back her hair. As much as she loved her kids – having them all week this week had been tiring – she had gotten so used to days off thanks to Sebastian taking them, not to mention having Kaleb’s help, the past week had been taxing. The rain had forced them to be inside all the time and more then once Gabby had threatened to take all of them to grandma’s, including the dogs, and tell her how bad they were being. That had gotten them calmed down for about a half hour before they were at it again. A smile crossed her lips as she noted that they were fine and was about to – out of habit – step out onto the porch for a quick relaxing smoke. Just as she was heading that way though, the baby gave a little kick which served as a reminder and she just turned, heading towards the couch and flopping down - disgruntled.
