I have a personal headcanon that Andrew and Neil never have children for multiple reasons. But you know who does have children? Matt and Dan. And they just moved to town.

Uncle Andrew and Uncle Neil spend extended amounts of time with the kids only three times. It goes as follows: 

Incident 1: The Presents

• The second time that Neil and Andrew see Matt and Dan’s children is when the kids are 6, 8, and 9.
• The first time was when they were born.
• Around Christmas time, the foxes always make an effort to see each other.
• It’s hard for them to all get together at once, so they make rounds as they can.
• This year, things were more convenient for Andrew and Neil seeing as Matt, Dan, and the kids had just moved closer.
• Dan got a new job and Matt was able to sign a new contract with a team in the same area.
• They decide to meet up the week before Christmas this time.
• Which means that Andrew and Neil need to buy some presents.
• Except Andrew and Neil honestly know jack shit about children.
• They have no idea what kids were into these days. They didn’t even know when they were children.
• All that Neil knew was that he never had any toys. Ever.
• All that Andrew knew was that toys were bribes and tricks and never anything he got to keep.
• Which is how Andrew and Neil end up at Toys R Us.
