We also celebrated little Anthony's transition to toddler as quickly as possible - those wobbly wabbits were starting to get lonely! That's Caryl in the background, Celeste had picked out several new outfits downtown & Caryl was enjoying a softer, brownish look. Tad prefers to spend most of the summer in his swim trunks to show off his pecs. Anthony thinks that if it doesn't produce milk, he's not interested!
Well, nobody appeared to be interested in watching Anthony transition to toddler, so he thought he'd just hang out for awhile. That's Abraham in the lab coat, just home from his after school job, and Caryl & Celeste hanging out, wondering when they're going to get some cake. Tad's wandered off, since Anthony wouldn't help blow out the candles.
Yes, that's Anthony, showing off the his new levitation trick just a few feet from the stove. Not to be outdone by the green children in the house, he wants everyone to know he's special too!
Caryl knows that if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself. Taking matters in hand, namely Anthony, she rounded up the family again and showed Tad how it's done.
And spin - no suspense here - another Parker-Scott boy, dark hair, dark eyes, blah blah blah.
And for all that, I don't have a single picture of toddler Anthony in my files. Let me just say that he's a chip off the old block - Tad clone of 5/5/5/4/9. I may influence up that playfulness a bit, but yawn! Coming up next, Abraham will be going off to college; he's done everything he can here in Veronaville, filled all his scholarship requirements & is fed up with all the rugrats.
until next time, PS.

Celeste was a welcome addition to the family; she had very high cooking & mechanical skills, with a few skill points in other areas. Her driving purpose in life was to be popular, to meet & make friends with as many people as possible, with an achievable dream of some day becoming a super-hero. She was very neat & outgoing & quickly made friends with the other members of the household. She also took up most of the cooking for the growing family, as Caryl was often too tired to get the older kids off to school. The reason for this soon became clear.
And Caryl soon welcomed Anthony into the house (that's #9 if you're counting). With 3 babies in the house, Celeste quit her job at the post office to help out full time. Tad had gone back to work the day after the twins were born, but he rushed home everyday to snuggle them & take his turn with diaper duty. Caryl had finally finished her first novel & it was selling well, and the older children came home from college regularly to help out around the house and welcome their new siblings. Abraham & Angus helped out as much as they could between school & homework, and often coerced the older twins to help with their skills building. The first few years flew by, as they often do in a house full of babies, and soon it was time for the twins to become toddlers.
(that's some random neighborhood kid that crashed the party for cake, along with Caryl, Abraham, Alex & Archie waiting for the spin)
Celeste helped Aubrey to his cake and after a bit of confetti and a quick toss, he was a handsome, sloppy little toddler. (stats - 2/10/3/3/10) Celeste was just happy that she'd been able to buy some new clothes before the party pictures were taken. She was tired of carrying that mail pouch around everywhere.
Tad then snuggled his little Aurora and brought her out to another cake, thinking about how wonderful his wife was being about her little green step-children.
Angus is just wondering when he'll finally get a piece of cake! And wishing he was in bed, cause he was tired from all this partying. Babies stay up too late!
With a bit of a spin and a blur of green, Aurora became a happy, sloppy toddler too! (stats = 0/8/0/10/10) and red hair - go figure!
