I promise you, the kids are always the easiest ones to shop for." Seriously. She had a way of walking into a shop and getting the children waaaaaaay more than was necessary because how could she not? Those four little monsters at home were her world and spoiling them rotten was what a mama does.

"Well at least Frankie and I aren't having anymore?" The brunette laughed. Four was good for them. They were already outnumbered. Unless they decided to adopt sometime in the future which she wouldn't be completely opposed to but that amazingly handsome husband of hers might be. "Let's get started. Toy shops always do the trick." What kid didn't want toys for Christmas?

She nodded in response to it being said that kids were easier to shop for. She was giving her sister-in-law the benefit of the doubt here. Cora didn't finding shopping for anyone to be easy, kid or not. But, given Hady's track record of gift-giving and experience with motherhood, the woman must've known what she was talking about.

A laugh did escape her mouth when Hady mentioned that she and Frankie weren't planning on having any more kids. Was four really the maximum? It seemed like they had no plans for stopping any time soon, given their track record. But, alas, she could see why her brother and and his wife were ready to stop. While she loved her nieces and nephew, she knew they (especially Logan.) could be a lot to handle -- she experienced that first-hand the one time she babysat.

"Probably for the best. Have to give my sisters an opportunity to catch up to you both." Notice how she excluded herself from that. Ahem. No matter how much her mother wanted another grandbaby, this time from her, Cora just ... no, just no.

Anywaaaaaaay. Toys for the kids is what they were after now. "Sounds good to me. Lead the way!"
