Kris chuckled and nodded his head as he stood up as well "Just as well, we should probably get going soon - Ian won't sleep tonight if I keep him asleep now and Estelle has a dance class tonight." Kris loaded up Ian's diaper bag and carrier on one arm "If you could kindly direct my daughter this way, we'll get out of your hair."

Kris finished the last of his drink, pushed his chair in and smiled at Titan "Estelle will be alright with your stinky smell, Titan - she's used to it by now with her baby brother around."

[hockeypreg2]

Titan nodded seriously and let Sidney take him back to the bedroom. Theo and Estelle were jumping on the bed, the room looked like a bomb hit it, and Sidney wasn't sure if that was paint or food on the wall. He wasn't sure which was better.

"Estelle, it's time to go. Your daddy is waiting for you in the living room. Time to say goodbye, boys."

"Awww," Theo pouted and hugged Estelle around the waist. He and Titan were bigger then her even though they were over a year younger. "Bye 'stelle."

Estelle hopped off the bed and quickly hugged Titan before running out of the room. "Diaper time, Titan How is your diaper, Theo?"

[Sam260]

Theo shrugged and squirmed as he jumped off the bed - a wet squishy sound following it "My diaper fine daddy." he said as he toddled over to the toy box and dove inside - his diaper was still squishing, looked full and there was a distinct stench to it as well. "It Titan who have a stinky in his diaper."

Theo dropped onto his rump after grabbing the toy firetruck he had been searching for, pushing it on the carpeted floor of his and Titan's bedroom.

[hockeypreg2]

"I think we'll check yours as well," Sidney said as he lifted Titan onto the changing table with a grunt. They were heavy and with him being pregnant it was getting harder to lift them up. Titan was, for once, calm while getting changed, choosing to watching Sidney's face. "Whew, that's a big one."

Titan nodded in agreement. "Big poopy. Bigger than Theo's poopy."

"Nuh uh. Mine's bigger!"

Sidney watched in horror as Theo squirmed out of his pants and undid his diaper, letting it - and the poop - drop on the ground. Theo's was bigger and now it was on the carpet.

Sidney really wished Silas was home. Why was he adding a third child to the mix? "Oh god Duke, NO!"

[Sam260]

Silas came home about an hour after the 'poop debacle' to a sleeping husband, two giggling toddlers, and a sick looking dog "What..." he turned and looked down the hallway, making sure he had come into the right apartment "What on earth is going on in here?" he asked, shutting the door and walking over to the couch.

Silas placed a hand on Sidney's shoulder, squeezing lightly to wake his husband from the sleep he was soundly ensconced in. The twins had managed to pull every toy from their bedroom into the living room - there were squiggled lines drawn on almost every wall with permanent markers, no less. A carton of milk had been up-ended on the floor, soaking into the carpet underneath the couch and coffee table - all in all, it looked like a tornado had ran through the living room and their names were Titan and Theo.

Silas took a deep breath as he took in the entirety of the destroyed living room - he could feel the anger bubbling, wanting to surface, but he had never lost his temper in front of the twins, and he'd be damned if he was going to do it now. "Sidney... I think we need to work out a new schedule."

(Yay terrible twos!)

[hockeypreg2]

Sidney woke up, startled that he had even fallen asleep. He looked around, his eyes wide. "Oh my god. I didn't mean to fall asleep. We were just cuddling on the couch and ..." He groaned. "I think I was asleep for fifteen minutes at the most. I don't even want to look at the refrigerator if they managed to get the milk out."

He struggled to push himself up, his belly weighing him down. "I'm sorry. There was a poop incident and we had just finished cleaning their room up so we were trying to have some quiet time together." Sidney felt tears pricking at his eyes over the state of his living room and the havoc the kids had wrecked.

[Sam260]

Silas shook his head and moved to stand in front of Sidney, wrapping his husband up in strong arms "Shhh, shhh. It is okay, Sid." Silas soothed, rubbing up and down Sidney's back in soothing, small circles "I will deal with the mess they have made... You go to the bedroom and rest some more." Silas said, releasing Sidney and gently nudging him in the direction of the bedroom.

Once Sidney was secure in their room, Silas turned to the two little terrors "You two are going to help me pick up this mess, and then we are going to have a very lengthy conversation about what you've done bad." Silas said, grasping the twins at the waistband of their pants as they tried running off "No." he said firmly "You will help me, and I do not want to see a single tear about it."

Silas set the twins down, placing a few toys in each of their hands "And make sure that you return once those are put back properly!"

[hockeypreg2]

Both of the twins toddled off with their toys, dropping them in their toy bins. Adda clearly meant business. They went back to the living room, hang dog expressions on their face.

"Sorry Adda," Titan said, his eyes wide. "We done bad. Daddy was sweepy an me an Theo wanna play."

"Sorry Adda." Theo echoed, holding Titan's hand.

[Sam260]

Silas got down onto a knee in front of the twins and pulled them close. He pressed a kiss to each of their heads "I think you should be telling Daddy that you're sorry, not me." The twins tried scrambling off to do just that but Silas held their waists firmly "After we finish cleaning the living room and Daddy wakes up from his nap."

Theo and Titan both nodded their heads, but they had a distinct pout on their lips as they went about collecting more toys in their arms to put them away in their toy boxes. Silas didn't help them much, he cleaned up the milk and then took inventory on the kitchen - Aside from the milk it seemed everything was still relatively the same. Except the bags of Pita Chips that Silas had made over the weekend were completely gone and the few large crumbs he saw around Duke's bed pointed that Duke - and probably the twins as well - had been the culprit to the missing Pita Chips... Oh man was Sidney gonna be pissed about that, it was still his number one craving.

[hockeypreg2]

Sidney got up to pee after a short nap. He made his way back into the living room which was cleaned up aside for the marker on the walls. They were going to have to paint that. The twins were quietly coloring on the coffee table with Silas watching over them, Duke asleep with his head in his lap.

Sidney sat down next to him, resting his head on Silas's shoulder, still a little bleary. "Did they help with the clean up?"

[Sam260]

Silas nodded and slid his arm around Sidney's shoulders "They got tired about twenty minutes into cleaning up, so I told them they could either sit in their room and stare at the walls or they could sit in here and color quietly on paper. They chose the more fun option, obviously." Silas said as he looked down at their twins.

Silas reached out a foot and lightly kicked Theo and Titan in the back "You two had something to say to daddy, didn't you?"

Two heads of dirty blonde nodded and they got off the floor, climbed up onto the couch next to Sidney and cuddled close to him - but neither twin touched his stomach, still completely avoiding their growing sibling - "We sorry daddy. We no mean to make a mess in the libing room." Theo and Titan said simultaneously, pouting up at Sidney.

[hockeypreg2]

"I accept your apology," Sidney said, pressing kisses into their hair. "Next time wake me up if I fall asleep. Your baby brother or sister makes me sleepy, but if you wake me up, I can still play with you."

Sidney hugged them close. He loved them so much, even when they were being crazy little monster like today. "Why don't you show me what you colored? Adda and I love to see your pictures."

[Sam260]

The twins scramble off of the couch, making faces about talk of their impending sister or brother and then grabbed their pictures - they were just a jumble of multi-colored squiggle lines. They climbed back up onto the couch and plopped themselves in Sidney and Silas' lap.

Duke whined about getting his nose sat on and huffed as he found a new position, head safely away from Titan's bottom.

Silas sighed and rubbed Duke's head lightly "Well that was surely a nice thing." Silas said sarcastically, but let it go in favor of looking at the squiggled drawings on Titan and Theo's coloring pages. They were supposed to be of Marvel superhero's, but neither were interested in 'staying in the lines' as of yet, more preferring to just scrawl messily on the pages - as evidenced by the walls as well.

((Skip whenever you want.))

[hockeypreg2]

Sidney wasn't quite sure how one baby was causing so much trouble compared to the twins. He was constantly exhausted, still throwing up most mornings, had terrible heartburn, was itching constantly, and his hip kept going out of joint. Plus unlike the twins, he was gaining so much weight. He had put on more weight already at 7 months then he had when the twins were born and he was twice the size with the twins. It was disheartening to say the least.

He stared at himself in the mirror, feeling extremely unattractive as he brushed his teeth. This was definitely the last baby. He looked pale and exhausted, not like he was enjoying pregnancy this time. Which was pretty much the truth. He felt like he just needed to get through it at this point and once the baby was here he could enjoy the baby.

[Sam260]

Silas watched the miserable look come across his husband's face and frowned. He stood behind him and set his hands against Sidney's hips - he hated to ask, but he didn't know what else to do "Is Marc absolutely certain you are only carrying one child?" Silas asked quietly, moving his hands firmly across Sidney's back and hips to massage the tension and pain he knew to be there.

[hockeypreg2]

Sidney nodded and leaned over to spit out the toothpaste. "Definitely one baby. If there's another one in there, it's hiding really well. He's done a bunch of ultrasounds at this point to check the size in case I go early."

He looked at Silas in the mirror. "I don't want to do this again."

[Sam260]

Silas hooked his chin over Sidney's shoulder and pressed in close behind him. Silas was hard and throbbing against Sidney's ass "I'll get a vasectomy... This way we will not have to worry about any more children coming as a surprise to us. Three will be our limit." Silas said as he slid his arms around Sidney's waist, cupping his hands underneath the wide curve of Sidney's baby bump.

[hockeypreg2]

"How do you even find me attractive right now?" asked Sidney seriously. It was a little easier to breathe with Silas holding the baby up and he took a deep breath. "I don't look anything like myself right now."

He knew Silas wasn't actually asking for sex right now and he was grateful for that. He had never gotten the burst of horniess that he'd gotten with the twins. He didn't know if it was because he was so tired from chasing after two toddlers as well as being pregnant, but either way, sex hadn't been very interesting to him the last few months.

[Sam260]

"How do I find my husband attractive?" he asked back, kissing Sidney on his cheek lightly "because you are beautiful, strong, brave... You are carrying our child. You look exactly as you did when I first fell in love with you two years ago." Silas adjusted his hands a little further underneath Sidney's stomach to take more of the weight in his own hands.

"You are the father of my two other very active little boys. You work hard, you stick to your guns about decisions even when all you want to do is break down and give into Theo and Titan's every demand. You always have a smile on your face, even when you are feeling miserable, and disgusting. You are neither of those - by the way - I think you are perfect, just the way you are." Silas kissed Sidney on the side of his face and smiled at their reflections "I wouldn't change a thing about you, Sidney Flint."

[hockeypreg2]

Sidney sniffled a little and reached up to wipe away the tear that made its way down his face. He turned in Silas's arms to hug him, hiding his face against Silas's chest as he cried. He just felt so gross and miserable and then Silas had to go and say something so beautiful and sweet like that. There was no way he wasn't going to cry at that.

"I love you," Sidney said in between sobs. "Don't ever change."
