How To Be A Baby

It's been a month now since me and Death have come to this world. Now that its been some time, I can open my eyes and see a lot clearer. I really enjoy being able to hear the sweet cooing of my mama as it puts a smile on my face and makes me giggle.

Death doesn't seem to be taking it too well though, he's always sleeping and I don't even know what he's thinking. Mama seems really worried about him, so she never leaves our side.

Besides that, I'm living my best life I can ever wish for, mama and papa are both caring and love us soooo, sooo much. It not just them, all the other people love us too. Well, especially me, since all Death does is sleep, he not fun.

I figured out that my name is Charlotte, It's such a beautiful name, I couldn't think of any better name than this. I was overjoyed and glad to have parents who have a good naming sense.

By the way, Death's name is so cool, they call named him Prince, just WoW. I am speechless, who's prince is he supposed to be, I bet if the princess is too much of hassle he'll just abandon her in middle of a desert.

I can tell for sure he's going to be a lady-killer in the future with those bright gem green eyes and black hair. I might have to protect my friends from getting too close to him... Hmmm.

Anyways...

Our family is pretty big, there's me, Death, Mama (Madeline), Papa (Joseph), Linda, Summer, Mike, and Sabastian. I know, it a pretty big family, but more the merrier, right?

Everyone gets along well and normally...except mike, our family 'dog'. There's something strange going on with this 'dog', I'm sure of it. First of all, he refuses to eat dog food, instead, he eats dinner with the rest of the family with a towel around his neck which he ties on himself? what? And also, he doesn't like me, and that's the real issue here. I could care less about how strange he is, but how can he not like the adorable me. It's way too unacceptable.

~~~~3 Months later~~~~

"Come on, come to mommy~

Come to me my little angle~

Come give mommy a big hug~"

In the living room of the Young White household, Madeline could be seen sitting on the floor with her arms wide open ready to receive a hug. She was looking at Charlotte her little angle slowly but surely walking towards her one step at a time. They have been practicing for the past two weeks for this one moment.

Charlotte had a determined look on her face which looked absolutely adorable in the eyes of Madeline, her mother. Charlotte was convinced that today was the day. She had enough of falling face-first towards the floor the past two weeks. Luckily for her, she had only hit the floor once, she cried her heart out that time and Madeline became heartbroken seeing her beautiful angle cry with a bum on her forehead.

Since then, each time Charlotte was about to fall, Madeline would instantly be there to catch her, it was as if her motherly instincts went off even before she was about to fall.

Can she tell the future perhaps?

But Today Was Different

Charlotte had gotten off the floor and onto her legs beautifully, she felt confident from the very start.

The distance between Charlotte and Madeline was 10 feet, it was a big distance for little Charlotte, which meant each and every step has to be perfectly placed.

Taking her first step, she placed her right foot forward firmly on the ground, a cute smile showed on her face. Lifting up her left foot, she needed to be quick before she lost her balance.

Placing her left foot forward, an obstacle had shown itself, a strand of noodle from their lunch earlier had made its way to the spot she was about to place her left foot. But this didn't stop her, she swiftly dodged it and placed her left foot on the ground.

Her balance was a little off because of the big distance between her two feet, but she held on and shortly got back her previous balance. A light sigh escaped her mouth as she continued on her journey.

Charlotte then went step by step as the distance between her and her mother became closer and closer.

Finally, they met as Charlotte hugged her mama with a face beaming with excitement and accomplishment waiting for her praise.

"Ahhh! That's my daughter!

Mama is so proud of you my angle!

Did you all see that! My baby girl is the best!"

Madeline was so excited for her daughter, even more so she was proud of her.

Everyone was watching the show secretly to not make Charlotte nervous and cheering for her in their hearts. Especially Joseph who was so proud of his princess taking the big lead of walking at only 4 months old. A single proud tear fell from his eye.

Joseph walked up to Madeline with Prince in his hand as they came to congratulate Charlotte.

He passed Prince to Madeline as he switched and picked up his daughter and threw her in the air again and again as Charlotte giggled and enjoyed the attention she was getting.

"Aweee my baby girl is growing up too fast!

Daddy doesn't want to marry you off yet! Never!" Joseph joked as he embraced Charlotte and pinched her rosy chubby cheeks.

Even though Joseph had just become a father 4 months ago, he can't even compare life with and without these chipmunks. He has never loved as much as he has now. It felt like his life only start 4 months ago. Becoming a father had him feeling like never before, it was truly magical what it does to you.

He's become so loving and protective of his family that he's ready to destroy the whole world for them. He loves and spoils his daughter the most, even sneaking in ice cream for her as an evening snack before bed. But he never forgets his tsundere son, he's been working overtime to get a reaction from him, his absolute pride and joy come every time he smiles, every time he giggles or acts cute, all of it is a special moment for him.

Madeline put Prince on her lap as she played with his hands like a doll, making him clap and wave from side to side while she cheered.

"When is my little Prince going to start crawling?" Madeline questioned as she pouted.

Prince (Death) is very lazy and sleeps almost all day long, he's not very expressive so each and every time he gives a smile or laughs is celebrated. But neither has he been a problem to them, he hasn't cried a single time, and isn't a picky eater.

"Come on Prince~, if you crawl from here to Linda I will give your favorite candy~" Madeline encouraged her baby boy with the bribe of giving him candy and it seemed like it worked.

Prince stared at Madeline's eyes for a couple of seconds before finally making his move, slowly but surely he moved his chubby arms and legs into position after his mother let him down from her lap.

He moved his heavy ass head from left to right as he spotted a girl in a short-sleeved, knee-length blue dress with lily patterns, and white short heel shoes while also rocking some white stockings on. Setting his eyes on the destination he tripped and fell face-first towards the floor. It seems like he had severely underestimated the level of difficulty of the task at hand.

Will he be able to reach Linda or will his motivation give out before then? Find out on the next season of No Snack, No Life!
