The morning sun was just peeking over the horizon as Emma steered her car down the familiar streets leading to her mother Vicki's house. In the back sitting in his car seat was her husband Max fast asleep with drool dripping down his chin and onto his onesie. It would be an adjustment, Emma mused, going back to the office three days a week after working from home for the past year. But her mother’s house was only a short fifteen-minute drive from Emma's office, making it the ideal spot to drop Max off on her way to work. Emma exhaled, ready to dive into this new routine. The roads were clear, the birds were singing, and the day held promise.
Emma gently turned into the winding driveway, her car gliding past the manicured hedges and flower beds leading up to her childhood home. The stately colonial stood tall and proud, bathed in the golden light of the setting sun. As Emma parked behind her mother's SUV, she gazed fondly at the place that held so many happy memories. In the backseat, her husband Max was still sleeping soundly sucking rapidly on his pacifier. The soft snores barely audible over the quiet rumble of the engine. Emma sent a quick text to let her mom know they had arrived, before taking a moment to appreciate the tranquil scene. Soon the front door swung open and Vicki hurried down the steps, arms open wide to embrace her daughter. Emma stepped out of the car, breathing in the fresh air as she hugged her mother tightly.
Emma's voice bubbled with gratitude as she thanked her mother for babysitting Maxi. "These next few weeks will definitely take some adjusting for all of us," she said. "But I'm so thankful to have such a great mom - I really don't know what I'd do without you!"
Vicki waved off her daughter's praise with a smile. "Oh honey, it's no trouble at all. This will keep me busy and a chance for Maxi and me to really bond." She opened the back door and gently unbuckled her sleepy son-in-law from his car seat. Sliding one hand under his crotch and wrapping the other around his back, she gingerly lifted him up and settled him on her hip.
"Here, let me get his things," Emma offered, grabbing his diaper bag and detaching the car seat. Vicki cradled Maxi, his head nestled perfectly in the crook of her neck as they headed inside. Emma followed behind, comforted by her mother's willingness to help and the natural way she cared for a baby.
“Well mom, if you're all set, I'm going to get going so I'm not late," Emma said. “Oh there’s a few bottles of formula, some jars of baby food, and a change of clothes in his diaperbag. Call me if you need anything!"
"Oh honey, we'll be fine. We'll see you tonight," Vicki replied. Emma kissed a half-awake Max on the forehead, telling him to be good for his grandma. Then she left, closing the door behind her.
Noticing Max’s diaper felt heavy as she held him, Vicki put him down on the plush carpet. She checked his diaper by inserting her finger into the elastic leg band of his Pamper, finding it was wet and realizing he had leaked through the bottom of his onesie.
Vicki joyfully reached for Max's diaper bag, gently pulling out his soft changing mat and sliding it beneath him. As Max's sleepy eyes fluttered open, he caught sight of his beloved Nana and broke into an ear-to-ear grin. "Why hello there, my sleepyboy," Vicki cooed. "Did you have sweetdreams?" Max squealed with delight, his legs kicking and arms waving animatedly. "I'll take that as a yes!" Vicki chuckled, deftly unsnapping Max's damp onesie and lifting it over his head, leaving him in just his diaper.
Vicki's delicate hands danced gracefully as she retrieved a package of pampers baby wipes and unfastened Max's soaked diaper. With tender care, she gently cleansed her son-in-law's infant sized peepee before lifting his legs high to wipe his bottom. A giggle escaped Max's lips as the cool wipes tickled his skin. "What's so funny, sweetheart? Is baby being silly?" Vicki cooed affectionately. She laid out a fresh pamper under him and powdered him thoroughly, ensuring he was comfortable and dry. With a nurturing touch, she taped the clean diaper snugly in place. Next she slid a red t-shirt over his head, the bulldozer design bright against the soft fabric. Max’s nana then pulled his arms through, pulling it down over his belly.
With a smile, Vicki handed Max a set of oversized plastic car keys to entertain himself while she prepared his breakfast .The cheerful sound of Sesame Street played from the TV, filling the room with color and joy. Vicki gathered the ingredients for Max’s breakfast- a bottle of formula, two small jars of smooth banana and pear purée, and two more jars of blended blueberries and apples. She set them out neatly on the counter. With care, she glided Max's highchair from its place in the hall into the kitchen, the wheels noiseless against the tile. From a drawer she retrieved a soft terry cloth bib, the fabric still warm from its recent trip through the dryer. Tracing her finger over the stitched words "I love my nana" above a vibrant red heart, she couldn't help but smile. Soon her son-in-law would be sitting I. his highchair , babbling happily as she tied the bib around his neck for num-nums.
Vicki heard the cheerful sounds of Max’s playtime drifting in from the kitchen as she warmed his bottle. Watching him through the doorway, enthralled by his toys, she couldn't resist capturing the moment to brighten her daughter's day. Phone in hand, she recorded a quick video of the baby blissfully jingling his keys, captivated by the colors and noises. The innocent joy on his face was contagious, even through the screen. Vicki smiled as she sent the video off, knowing it would make her daughter's morning to see her baby immersed in happiness.
Vicki sang out to Max that it was time to fill his belly. Sweeping him up into her arms, an unpleasant scent assaulted her nose, alerting her that his diaper was likely in need of a change. Peering into the depths of his diaper, her suspicion was confirmed - it was quite loaded. She decided a fresh diaper could wait until their stomachs were full. Carrying Max over to his high chair, she nestled him down, the mess enveloping him causing him to fuss in discomfort. Max's fussy whimpers turned into full-blown wails as Vicki fastened a bib around his neck. "There, there, my little stinker," she soothed, tickling his belly. "Nana will change your yucky diaper just as soon as we fill that tummy of yours." Max's cries dissolved into giggles at her touch. Seizing the opportunity, Vicki loaded up a heaping spoonful of banana and pear purée. Max's mouth fell open instinctively, and his eyes lit up as the sweet taste hit his tongue. He rewarded his nana with a big, messy grin. Vicki chuckled affectionately at the baby's enthusiasm. "There’s my good boy," she praised. "Let's get some more yummies in your tummy!”
