Spralbert: New Baby

*this is based off of a pinterest prompt I found*

Race POV

"Albert. It's crying."

Albert glanced at the piece of paper that Spot gave us before he left. It was our first week with a child and Spot had to go to the store, leaving Albert and I alone with our daughter.

"I think babies are supposed to cry. It's what she's done for the past week." Albert replied to me.

"Albie... how do we make it stop?" I asked, starting to panic.

"I don't know. Did you feed her?" He asked, also starting to panic.

"Yes. you were standing right there when I did."

"Okay. Did you-"

We were cut off by our daughter wailing.

Rocking the baby in my arms, I motioned for Albert to continue.

"Did you put her down for a nap?" Albert asked me, looking at the paper in his hand.

"You just saw her wake up," I answered.

I hear the front door open.

"Spot's home," Albert said walking towards the door.

"Hey, Racer. Where's Albert?" Spot greeted me, looking around the room for any traces of Al.

"I've been squished like a bug, Spooty Booty." Albert groaned from behind the door.

"Whatever. Why is Cara crying?"

'We don't know!" Albert and I said simultaneously.

"And he fed her and she just woke up from a nap," Albert added on.

"Well... did you change her?" Spot asked.

"I was hoping I wouldn't have to do that," I admitted, putting my head on Spot's shoulder.
