Chapter 14: Babies and Coziness

Cami

After getting inside, we remove our boots and begin the awkward process of wrangling Issy out of the sling and Brody out of the backpack. I’m up on my tiptoes trying to pull Brody, who’s surprisingly heavy especially in his snowsuit and boots which keep getting caught on the straps, out of the backpack. Owen is bending low on his knees to help. "Thighs burning yet from having to stay in the squat?" I tease.

"Pretty much, yeah."

I finally get Brody out and almost fall down. Brody’s going back and forth between whimpering and giggling, not having a clue what is happening and why we’re struggling so badly.

"How the heck did you get them in here by yourself?"

"It was a challenge. And I’m sure if someone was recording it, I could have made some good money on America’s Funniest Videos."

By the time we’re finished getting Issy out of the sling, we’re both rolling with laughter and the kids are just happy it’s over.
