Chapter 10 - Chapter Ten: Christmas Wrapped Up

Kate and Yelena both couldn't get over how cute you were, of course it had been a shock to see you in an infant's body; but they got over it pretty quickly. Lucky's tail wagged happily as he smelled you and gave you lots of puppy kisses. He had a look of confusion on his face as he couldn't understand how you had gone from big to super tiny.

You fussed a little when you felt overwhelmed by all the love surrounding you.

"It's okay, malen'kiy." Wanda said in a soothing voice as Yelena handed you to her.

Natasha couldn't stop smiling as she watched her family mingle with each other as she prepared Christmas brunch. Her heart was filled with the brim as she realized that this had been the first year that she had truly felt complete.

"Nat, are you alright?" Wanda asked as she came over and gently wiped a tear that was falling down her girlfriend's face.

Nat let out a shaky breath as she nodded her head, "I'm okay. I'm just so thankful. This is the first time that I don't feel alone. I think this is the closest thing to a real Christmas Yelena and I have ever experienced." Natasha smiled as she watched how happy her sister looked sitting next to Kate and Lucky in the living room.

Wanda knew all too well what loneliness felt like and she also knew how lonely the holidays could feel without children or a family. Before you or Natasha, she didn't really have anyone and she would often spend her holidays locked in her room. "I'm thankful that I now have a family with you and y/n."

Natasha wrapped her arms around you and Wanda, she let out a laugh as she felt Yelena and Kate join in on their family hug.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------You sat patiently in your high chair as everyone began to sit around the table. The food smelt amazing and you were making grabby hands at everything.

Wanda sat next to you as she had a few jars of food in front of her with a baby spoon in each of them, "are you hungry my little tiger? You mama has made you some special Christmas food. Let's see which ones you like."

Natasha was quick to put a cute tiger bib around your neck as she had a feeling that you were going to make a mess.

You opened your mouth as you waited for your mommy to feed you. You weren't too sure how to feel about the first jar as it was green and mushy. When you had been an adult you were never too fond of peas and you hoped to god that your mama had remembered. The moment the green mush hit your tastebuds you made a face and spit everything out!

"Doesn't y/n hate peas?" Kate asked as she was trying her best not to laugh at Wanda who was wiping green peas from her blouse.

You let out a fussy cry as you continued to wipe your face from the yucky taste in your mouth. You almost didn't trust as you mommy held up a different spoon up to your mouth. This time the mush was a golden yellow color. You made happy sounds as you ate bite after bite.

"It seems that our little tiger loves Sweet Potatoes." Wanda spoke in a baby voice as she felt relieved to finally find something that you enjoyed. When you were a little but in an adult body you were still able to eat adult foods; but now they would need to teach you how to eat solids and how to drink out of a sippy cup.

You were starting to get full of the sweet potatoes and you whined when your mommy tried to feed you another bite.

"Do you think she might be thirsty?" Yelena asked as she got up and went to fill up a sippy cup with breast milk that her sister had pumped earlier.

You looked at the purple sippy cup in front of you with curiosity as you attempted to pick it up. Picking anything up with your little baby hands was proving to be a challenge. It took many times before you managed to get the spout into your mouth, you sucked and after a few attempts you managed to get the milk to come out.

Everyone clapped at your accomplishment and you felt so full of love. You continued to drink your milk as everyone ate their own meal and told stories around the table.

"Is it time for presents yet, sestra?" Yelena whined as she gave pleading eyes at her big sister.

Natasha chuckled at her impatient sister. It reminded her of all the Christmases in Ohio where they had both been excited to open the empty presents around the tree. This time the presents were real and that alone brought joy into her soul.

"Yes, sestra. Come let's go open presents!"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Yelena and Kate handed you their present first and they helped you unwrap your gift, of course you had no idea what it was. You were more interested in the wrapping paper and the glittery bow on top.

"Please tell me that you didn't get y/n a harness and leash." Natasha said as she tried to stop herself from laughing.

"What? It matches Lucky's." Yelena joked as she pointed at Lucky with his brand new rainbow harness that had a bow tie in the front.

Kate smirked as she too was also trying to hold in her giggles. "Y/n will be the safest toddler when she starts walking. We've also placed a security chip on the harness… should there be any accidents."

Wanda rubbed her temples as she shook her head, her lips curved into a smile, "so you're telling me that you both bought y/n a harness and leash and you in a sense have chipped her?" Wanda laughed as both girls nodded their heads.

You were playing in the wrapping paper and boxes as everyone opened their own gifts and helped you open your own. You had been given toys and outfits that would need to be exchanged for the right size and the correct age appropriate toys.

Lucky was laying happily in his new doggie bed that his aunt Natasha had gifted him and he was also surrounded by toys and a giant bone which he was currently chewing on.

Wanda took pictures of everyone opening their gifts and she especially took pictures of you exploring everything around you.

You looked up at your mommy with happiness and love in your eyes as you made grabby hands at her and babbled, "mama."

Tears threatened to fall down Wanda's cheeks as she nodded her head and smiled down at you, "that's right, detka. I am mama and this is also your mama." She said as she pointed at Natasha.

"Mama. Mama." You babbled happily as some drool landed on your bib. Of course you knew who your mama's were, they were the ones who had loved you the most.

Deep in your mind you knew that you used to refer to Wanda as mommy; but mommy was such a hard word to say at six months old. For now calling them both mama would have to do, and judging by the look in their eyes they didn't mind being both mama.
