Re: A very OP Christmas Part 1...

Alexis: I don't exactly... but isn't that one of the things they notice in ultrasounds, if a baby has their umbilical cord wrapped around their neck?

Jabberwocky Tue Jan 17, 2012 5:39 am

Colin:"...They are also suppose to pick up four babies when there is..."
he smirks
Colin:"Maybe he was smart enough to get the chord off of the neck before the cameras showed up...In which case, you might have the makings of a heel on your hands here..."

Pockets Tue Jan 17, 2012 5:42 am

Alexis laughs.

Alexis: Anything is possible at this point.

Jabberwocky Tue Jan 17, 2012 5:49 am

Colin:"Heh I suppose so..."

He puts the warrior baby down and picks up Nathalie, prepping another bottle. For a moment he looks somewhat dismayed

Pockets Tue Jan 17, 2012 5:50 am

Alexis notices the look and nearly panics.

Alexis: What is it?

Jabberwocky Tue Jan 17, 2012 5:57 am

Colin looks over at Alexis

Colin:"Huh? Oh no nothing I was just...just thinking is all."

Pockets Tue Jan 17, 2012 5:58 am

Alexis: What were you thinking about?

Jabberwocky Tue Jan 17, 2012 6:12 am

Colin:"Its not exactly positive thinking, you got enough going on to have to worry about my concerns of 'maybe'"

Pockets Tue Jan 17, 2012 6:13 am

Alexis: If you're looking at my kid and thinking "maybe" I'd like to know what you're thinking about.

Jabberwocky Tue Jan 17, 2012 6:25 am

Colin:"Its just...I can't but help shake the feeling that this is the one and only time I'm going to get to spend this kind of time with them without having...people...breathing down my neck watching every move I make. Like I'm bad for their health or something. I mean...I would love to sit them sometime. Just me and Amber...but...gah...Am I just being paranoid? I...I can't help but think that I'm not...I want to be wrong about this, I really do..."

Pockets Tue Jan 17, 2012 4:18 pm

Alexis sighs.

Alexis: You know what happened on the way here. And that was to a total stranger who was just being a jerk. If anyone on Alex's side of the family didn't trust you with your nieces and nephews you wouldn't have been allowed in the same building much less holding and feeding them. It might take a little bit for us to let them out of our sight at all, but when we do you are definitely on the list for babysitting duty.

Jabberwocky Tue Jan 17, 2012 4:29 pm

Colins face angers a little bit at the mention of what happened earlier, the cogs in his brain obviously turning.
Colin:"..."
he sighs
Colin:"Thanks sis.."
he puts Alexis daughter down and picks up Conner
Colin:"Has dad got to see them yet?"

Pockets Thu Jan 19, 2012 10:04 pm

Out of all the babies, Connor seems the happiest in Colin's arms. He takes to the bottle immediately with a look of supreme contentment on his face.

Alexis: I don't know. I haven't seen him since I was in the act of giving birth.

Jabberwocky Sun Jan 22, 2012 7:21 pm

Colin:"I'm sure he has a lot on his mind. I know he's around the hospital."

Pockets Sun Jan 22, 2012 7:23 pm

Alexis: Well, since it seems we'll be here awhile, I'm sure he'll get the chance today if he hasn't already.

Jabberwocky Sun Jan 22, 2012 7:29 pm

Colin:"You do realize at some point they are going to have to boot you out of here right?"

Pockets Sun Jan 22, 2012 7:31 pm

Alexis: Of course. Whether or not Alex has woken up might complicate things just a little.

Jabberwocky Sun Jan 22, 2012 7:47 pm

Colin glances over at Micah for a moment then back at his sister
Colin:"Ah I...didn't think you knew about that..."

Pockets Sun Jan 22, 2012 7:49 pm

Alexis notices the look, and her eyes narrow slightly.

Alexis: Was I not supposed to?

Jabberwocky Sun Jan 22, 2012 8:01 pm

Colin notices the change in expression in her face

Colin:"Alexis, you just gave birth to FOUR babies. Obviously its understandable if you are emotionally and physically drained. The last thing that anybody wanted to do was give you another thing to be worried about. When you got rested you would have been told what had happened, without risking you not being able to get the kind of rest that you NEED."

Pockets Sun Jan 22, 2012 8:03 pm

Alexis makes a face.

Alexis: I'm getting rest. I'm literally attached to the bed.

Jabberwocky Sun Jan 22, 2012 8:06 pm

Colin:"Stress free rest Alexis. You had enough on your mind as is with everything going on BEFORE what happened with Alex..."

Pockets Sun Jan 22, 2012 8:22 pm

Alexis: I don't even know if that's possible anymore. Something always seems to happen.

Jabberwocky Sun Jan 22, 2012 8:31 pm

Colin sighs
Colin:"Believe me, you're preaching to the choir on that one."

Pockets Sun Jan 22, 2012 8:35 pm

Alexis: I'm afraid to imagine what could possibly happen when we all get out of the hospital... this time....
