Surprise! Bluey's pupper has my whole heart! I think the Father is still up to interpretation, but I'd like to think it's Mackenzie. Anyway, couldn't resist cute Adult!Bluey and future family sketches!

Nicky thinks the twins don’t love him, but then they both get ejected from a game for beating the shit out of a guy who illegally hits Nicky hard enough Nicky breaks his wrist.
Nicky thinks the twins don’t love him, but when Eric visits during Christmas, they lock him outside until Nicky stops crying because they fought.
Nicky thinks the twins don’t love him, but when it comes time for Nicky’s wedding, they look at him like he’s stupid because, of course, they are the ones who will walk him down the aisle. Once they are at the end, Aaron shoves Andrew out of the way so he can stand in the best man's spot. Andrew is just about to slam Aaron into the ground before Wymack loudly clears his throat from his spot in the front row (where the parents would usually sit), and they both straighten up. Andrew still kicks Aaron in the shin, and Nicky turns purple, trying not to laugh.
Nicky worries the twins might forget about him, but every week, they hold a group video chat to catch up, and once, when Nicky’s just had an awful day and can’t seem to keep it together, they don’t immediately hang up because he’s started crying.
Nicky worries the twins don’t care about him, but when he and Eric get in a minor car accident that lands Nicky in the hospital for a few days, they fly to him and camp out in his room until he’s cleared to go home.
Nicky worries the twins don’t love him, but Andrew sends him pictures of Neil and the cats, and Aaron sends him photos of the twins and Katelyn.
Nicky doesn’t think the twins love him, but he gets to stand next to Andrew at Aaron’s back when he gets married, and he is put in charge of organizing the not party for Andrew and Neil’s not wedding.
Nicky knows that the twins love him when they stop acting like they hate him and start treating him like they love him.
I’m a firm believer in Andrew Minyard being gentle with kids.
Upholding his boundaries even with children and telling them no when they try to climb all over him, teaching them to say no as well and to set their own boundaries; to say “no thank you” when a relative wants a hug or kiss that they don’t want to give.
Gentle hands catching chubby arms when they almost topple over, tapping knees and toes and distracting aaron’s girls when they get a vaccine because “i can’t hold them both still while they’re freaking out but katelyn is out of town and you’re in town anyway and andrew they’re gonna be the death of me-”
Soft spoken words and made up stories about where twins come from; about horses growing horns when they see rainbows to become unicorns when someone says unicorns aren’t real; tales of a vegetable goblin that comes to your house when you don’t eat them to steal all your food (even though he doesn’t eat them himself).
Buying Aaron’s twins toys for Christmas that are undoubtedly awesome but such an unbelievable hassle for parents. Encouraging them to make a mess in any way he can just for fun. Getting them those electric cars and watching them drive down the street while Aaron chases after them because “it’s bath time we’re done with the cars, girls!” while they just continue giggling and circling him.
