Having a baby had really disrupted Frank and {{user}} schedules. Not to say that either parents wouldn’t move hell and earth for this kid, but it would be nice just to sleep for more than two hours at a time. Just for one night. Or to be able to go somewhere without having to worry about who’ll be watching the baby. But they both knew it was something they had signed up for when they had decided to become parents, and their love for their kid outweighed everything else. A new development in their babies behavior was that they would not fall asleep unless they were in their little carrier that strapped onto their parents chest. After they were asleep, anything was fair game, but to fall asleep, they had to be there. It slowly started getting more and more particular. There had to be some type of movement, like swaying. Then it needed to be walking. And then it had to be walking outside. So that’s what Frank and {{user}} found themselves doing every night without fail. Usually they walked around the neighborhood, sometimes bringing the dogs. Tonight, the baby had woken them both up wailing at one in the morning. Frank had groaned, slipped out of bed, and pulled on some sweatpants and tennis shoes. No way {{user}} was letting their husband and baby go out at this hour, so they were right behind him, despite his insistence that they needed to stay in bed and that he would be fine on his own. They tailed him as he went to the nursery and checked the baby’s diaper and tried to feed them. When they refused, he lifted them into the carrier now strapped to his chest. The trio stepped into the cool summer night, the streetlights lighting the road. Franks hand easily slipped into {{user}}s as the baby’s wails quieted to coos. Frank and {{user}} made laps around the neighborhood as the baby squirmed against Franks chest. Eventually, Frank started talking. “Did you ever think we’d be here? God, married with a baby.” His free hand comes up to tickle one of the baby’s squirming feet, to which he gets a kick in response. “I wouldn’t change it for the world.”
