Niels smiled, hearing little Angelo cry. It was a nice sound to wake up to. It had been a while now, since they had left the hospital and took the little boy home. But it still was amazing to have new life in the house.
Today however was a special day, a special day, for it was Halloween, Angelo's first one. He and Amanda had been looking for a costume for their little boy. And they had found a perfect costume for the little boy. As Niels gently woke Amanda, he could hear noises from Emi's room already. The little girl was probably excited, having overheard talks the evening before, discussing today. They had allowed her to choose her own outfit, and when she was ready, she would be stunning, Niels knew that for sure. But before that was happening, it might be better to get Angelo in an outfit first, even if just for some pictures. Niels got Amanda out of their bed, playfully pulling her to the dresser, asking her to take their little angel's costume. Amanda giggled, taking it out before handing it to him. Niels smiled widely, thanking her before beginning to walk towards Angelo's room. The little one woke as they entered, fussing a bit until Amanda started talking, immediately triggering a soft coo from Angelo. Niels laughed softly, walking up to him, lifting him and taking him to the changing table. Slowly he started moving Angelo's left arm, making him fuss. The fussing and crying when they were moving his arm was still painful, but the crying got less every day. That gave Niels and Amanda hope, hope of his injury healing. It took some time, they were aware of that, and it was healing slowly, but slowly was better than not. After the exercises were done, Niels changed his diaper, and put on his boy's costume. They put him back in his crib, taking a few pictures of him. He looked great, the next thing they had to do was getting Emi ready...
