A wonderful gift from my good friend and featuring the awesome artwork by . Once again, thanks for the surprise gift you two!

A few months ago, Marshall had a school project assigned by his teacher, Mrs. Nuttkins on how to look after a baby rat, namely Mrs. Nuttkins pet rat named Xerry. So on one weekend, Marshall learned the ins and outs of looking after Xerry while writing out an essay along. Marshall also quickly learned on what to do and on what not to do, such as feeding Xerry the wrong foods, which nearly ended in disaster for the poor rat (not to mention for Marshall nearly getting a zero on his project). But after learning from his mistakes, Marshall and Xerry became fast friends, along getting an A+ for his school project and essay.

But then, one day Marshall's witch friend, Mz. Curl, gave Mrs. Nuttkins a surprise by transforming her pet baby rat into a handsome adult rat. While Xerry can now walk, talk, and doesn't need a pet cage to stay in, Xerry still has a mind of a baby rat and still eats baby food, drinks from a baby bottle, sleeps in a huge crib, likes to play with baby toys, and prefer hugs and head pets from Mrs. Nuttkins.

But most importantly, since Xerry's never been potty trained at all, he's now diapered dependent 24/7. But it doesn't matter to the big baby red rat at all. Xerry loves his nice thick AB designed diapers as well as getting changed here and there. And Xerry puts his diapers to good use too. He goes through about 6 to 8 diapers a day, just as much as Marshall goes through in a single day!

However, since Mrs. Nuttkins works as a school teacher and is gone for most of the day, she's worried on who would look after Xerry when she goes to work. Thankfully, Marshall's parents has stepped forward on looking after Xerry. And since there are some big babies in the family, noticeably Marshall, Frostbite, and Gottlieb who are still in diapers, Laura has no problems looking after a big baby red rat. And Xerry was very easy to look after too. Xerry was nice, friendly, and didn't put up a fight when it comes to nap time or changing time. And after looking after Xerry for a few days, Laura fell in love with the big baby red rat.

But while Xerry's enjoys Laura and Howard's company, Xerry still favors Marshall as his most trusted caretaker. And Marshall treats Xerry like the big brother he never had. Once Marshall returns home from school and after he finishes his homework, he goes into the playroom where Xerry waits for him inside his giant playpen. And once Marshall climbs inside Xerry playpen all decked in a thick fresh diaper, the two would have a grand time as they with baby toys while watching cartoons from the giant widescreen TV that hung on one side of the playroom wall.

But even after a long round of playtime, the two diapered playmates would wind down and relax for the evening. As Xerry laid down on one side of playpen, Marshall got out Xerry's baby bottle filled with chocolate milk (since Xerry's now an adult, his digestive system is not as fragile as before and he can easily digest the foods he's originally not allowed to have). "Drink up, big brother!" yapped Marshall as he gently squeezed the baby bottle nipple into Xerry's lips, allowing Xerry to sip down the chocolate milk with ease like a real big baby should.

Once Xerry's done with his bottle, Marshall then gently snuggled up to Xerry as he tucked a nice warm blanket around the two of them. Marshall then plopped a paci in Xerry mouth and gently petted his soft red fur. "Sweet dreams, big bro." whispered Marshall while Xerry whispered back, "You too, little bro." as he placed a paci in Marshall's mouth in return as the two babies soundly fell fast asleep.
