Though there was still that small handful of people that still always puzzled her and made her really put serious thought into what to get them.

Cora's laugh made her smile and she couldn't help herself from asking randomly, "So when can we have you babysit for them all again? You know they miss their auntie Cora." There was a hint of a smirk on her lips showing that she was teasing around. Maybe. Any chance she could get a break for a bit, she was taking it! As much as she loved her babies, she needed a break too. Nova and Melody were really good girls now that they were getting older but Logan was still her little Wolverine. That kid was everywhere all at once. And Bryony, at almost two knew how to play the 'I'm the youngest' card to the fullest already. Not to mention she was Logan's shadow and a biter!

Hady laughed fully at this. "Catch up to us? Oh, they can catch up and double what we have and I'm not having anymore." She was done. Four was enough. Just taking her own siblings and younger cousins for a day so they could spend time with her kids she ended up with twelve kids. It was insanity. This wasn't even including all the Paton nieces and nephews.

"This way. There's a shop close by I know the kids love." Thank you, Frankie for bringing the children in there often enough for them to have a constant up to date list of things they all 'HAVE TO HAVE'. The list of items that was currently folded neatly inside her bag.

When the question about babysitting came up, she couldn't tell whether she was joking or not. The smirk that was on her sister-in-law's face indicated it was all in jest, but Cora could only imagine what Hady and her brother would do to have just one night away from their kids. Just one night in charge of their care was enough for Cora to understand that parenting wasn't all it was cracked up to be.

"You might be better off getting your mum or mine to watch over them," the blonde responded truthfully. She knew she would be fine with the older two, but Logan was just too much to handle and Bryony probably still required diaper changes. Sure, she was smart and would probably figure it out, but children were a whole other matter in comparison to the safety of her world of potions and alchemy.

She couldn't help but roll her eyes as a grin played on her lips at Hady's comment about not having anymore kids. "Better knock on some wood then" was all she had to say on that matter as she trailed along after her in the direction of the toy shop.
