Everyone sits around eating breakfast↓↓↓

There was a bit of atmosphere at the breakfast table, over the loud groans from the parent's bedroom, early in the morning...↓

  Dad slipped out with the dog↑↑

"Just taking the dog out...."Said Dad
 "You could take the baby with you...." said Mom 

"Dogs don't talk..." replied Dad.

Debbie breaks her news to Dad over coffee↑↑

"I'm pregnant!"

"Woof" shouts the dog.

 Mom meets up with Shirley to break the good news↑↑

"How do I tell him I'm pregnant Shirley?"

"Dadddddddd?" asks the baby.

 "Is it Bob's or Phil 's?" Asks Shirley.

 "No, it's Derek's!"

  Mom meets up with Derek to tell him the good news↑↑

"You are going to be a father again!"Says Mom

"That's number 4 child with you," Derek replied

 "Hubby blames the vasectomy for the lack of kids...."Replied Mom

 "How does you explain the 3 kids you have had?" Asks Derek

 "The Stork leaves them on the front step" she laughs.

Derek bumps into Dad while out for a walk↑

"Hi Derek, how's things?" Dad asked.

 "Great, you?" "Going to be a dad again." Dad replied. 

"I heard..."

 "Who from?" asks Dad 

"The Stork!" replied Derek.

Debbie and Mom enjoying coffee↑ 

"I have put my name down for the parent class at the hospital." Debbie said to mom.

 "I have had 3 kids, I don't need to go," laughed mom.

 "That's a shame, our partners could meet up!" laughed Debbie.

 "Dad is a hands on father!" said Mom.

 "That's good to know!" winked Debbie.

While the Dad and Shirley watch the Mom feed the baby...↑

The Dad turns to his wife's best friend... 

"You know Shirley, if you ever want to take part in one, you only have to ask?" Asks the Dad .

"In what?" Asks Shirley
