Baby!Coco things:

aziraphalesbookkeeper:

  • Hector 110% cried when Imelda told him she was pregnant
  • (or then fainted maybe, idk which scenario I like better but
    both are pretty plausible)
  • ALSO imelda being super nervous to tell him because they’re newlyweds
    or maybe aren’t even married yet and when he reacts in such a positive way
    she’s filled with so much love and happiness questions why she ever doubted him
  • Hector proceeds to run around town excitedly screaming about
    how he’s going to be a dad
  • Un Poco Loco comes
    from Imelda’s pregnancy brain (because she’s so fiery by herself, imagine her with
    the emotional hormones of two people)
  • When Imelda starts to go into labor she and hector keep
    fighting about contraction times (a la Jim and Pam in the Office episodes “The
    Delivery pt 1 &2”)
  • Hector being frazzled and literally so stressed that
    something might go wrong during the delivery that Ernesto has to calm him down
    multiple times and at one point having to physically drag him from the room because you’re not helping, the midwives know what
    they’re doing she’ll be fine
  • (Because modern medicine wasn’t a thing) imelda’s family
    kept predicting that their child would be a boy because of the way her hips
    were shaped and her belly size, but Imelda always kind of knew in the back of her
    head the baby was a girl, and when Coco is born she feels comforted she knew
    the whole time
  • But she’s a little worried Hector might have gotten his
    hopes up for a boy but he’s like wE HAVE
    A LITTLE GIRL,
    WHO CARES ???!1!!
    SHE’S BEAUTIFUL, THANK GOD SHE DIDN’T
    GET MY NOSE and Imelda just fondly rolls her eyes
  • Hector being afraid of holding her at first and he’s very
    jumpy and it takes a lot of coaxing from Imelda to get him to be steady enough
    to hold the baby without accidentally vaulting her somewhere
  • Uncle Ernesto
  • Both hector and Imelda being equally attentive and loving
    parents to their precious baby girl
  • Neither of them wasting any time introducing music into her
    life (ie: Hector carting her around the courtyard on his hip when other musicians
    are playing, Imelda singing Coco to sleep every night, both harmonizing
    together and dancing with her in the living room to get her to smile)
  • Baby Coco tugging on hector’s goatee
  • The first time Coco walks Hector is playing in the plaza and
    Imelda is there to support him and she’s sitting with Coco on the ground and
    they’re both listening but then coco pushes herself up and toddles over to her
    papa and hector loses his goddamn mind
  • Hector trying to get Coco’s first word to be dimple, ernesto
    trying for it to be chorizo, Imelda being so done with both of them because babies can’t pronounce syllables no matter how
    close you stick your faces to hers you idiotas
