Protective Heroine and her Ward

[Sephy]

"Me kay" Bryan cooed. The boys might have been five. but were often treat much younger. In Tot-town hesitant child raising was expected.

"That's good to know, snookums." Mona said and gave him some kisses and checked Bryan's pull-ups.

[Sephy]

Bryan was soaked.

Phil was playing with Ryan on the side.

[Anon17a]

"Oooh looks like someone made a big tinkle." Mona said as she removed Bryan's pants and pull-ups. "Honey? How are Ryan's pull-ups?" She asked

[Sephy]

"Soaked. Are you sure they're ready for this?" Phil asked.

[Anon17a]

"I suppose not yet, honey. But these are pull-ups are as absorbant as diapers. I really just put them on them because since they're bigger and more mobile, it's easy to just slip them on and off. Especially for Ryan. You know how he gets about changes sometimes." Mona said as she took some wipes and wiped up Bryan and cooed to him. "Did you make lots of tinkles in your pull-ups huh Bryan baby?"

[Sephy]

Bryan nodded as he suckled his paci.

[Anon17a]

Mona giggled slightly as she got him cleaned and placed another pair of pull-ups on Bryan. "Although I think Bryan prefers diapers cause he likes laying down when I change him than when I do when he's standing up."

[Sephy]

"We could always get supplies of both, but Ryan still needs diapers at night. Otherwise we'll have laundry to do" Phil told him as he started changing Ryan.

[Anon17a]

"Both of them do. They're quite the heavy wetters in the night." Mona said and kissed Bryan.

[Sephy]

Bryan giggled as his mommy's kiss.

Ryan was changed and was let go to play.

Phil smiled saying "Should we talk about preschool again?"

[Anon17a]

Mona nodded. "They're definitely ready to go by now. I know we've taught them plenty at home but they need to socialize with other children more."

[Sephy]

Phil nodded. "Are you going to be ready for that?" Phil sighed realizing how bad it's going to be for Bryan.

Ryan went to his mommy wanting her attention now too.

[Anon17a]

"I'm not sure, honey..." Mona said as she looked to Ryan. "Hi, snookums."

[Sephy]

Phil sighed back. "I hope so, but tell me if by chance you need comfort"

Ryan kissed his mommy before nuzzling into her empty side.

[Anon17a]

"Of course, babe." Mona said as she switched Bryan for Ryan with Phil. She took Ryan and cuddled him in her embrace. "There is also the fact that these boys are still nursing too. Should we start weening them, honey?" She asked

[Sephy]

"Most parents haven't weened their babies around here. Even Mayor Leon and his wife promote continuous breastfeeding. But it's your body hon, so I'll let you decide" Phil said as he took hold of Bryan. Phil treated Bryan similar to how Mona does. Bryan was their baby boy and needed to be protected and given a little more doting.

[Anon17a]

"Yes, I do love nursing our little ones as well." Mona said as she played with Ryan's hair a little. "I mean, they'll throw a fit if we even tried stopping them."

[Sephy]

Phil gave Bryan a plush to hold on to. "True, I don't think the crying would ever stop"

Ryan cooed happily. "Hungie mommy" Ryan was more of the talkative of the twins while Bryan was still more baby talk and some times just baby babble.

[Anon17a]

"True. Especially Ryan. He'd probably tear the whole house down." Mona said and looked to him. "What do you want to eat, baby?"

[Sephy]

"Cookies" Ryan cooed happily.

Phil was playing crawling games with Bryan.

[Anon17a]

Mona sighed a little. "Cookies are after your meal, honey. How's about some oatmeal first hm?"

[Sephy]

Ryan nodded back drooling slightly.

"Bryan say dada" Phil loved Bryan and was needing to help him advance a bit more before preschool.

"Da" Bryan cooed

[Anon17a]

Mona smiled. "He really is progressing with his talking but he understands everything like Ryan does." She said as she prepared some oatmeal and started to feed Ryan.

[Sephy]

Phil nodded. "Bryan is just a little stubborn on it is all"

"Da da" Bryan came out with.

Phil smiled proudly. "Good job Bry"

Ryan ate his meal, proving he still needed a bib.
