C16 - So many babies

The local bakery was going to make a killing off the Parker-Scott household. Aubrey & Aurora were happy, healthy babies and adored by everyone in the house.

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!


Tad was overjoyed that they both grew up well, so while the other guests enjoyed their cake and trundled off to bed, he immediately started up a batch of smart milk for the twins and commenced with the lessons - talking and potty-training right off the bat & then back to bed for Aurora, as she was worn out.

And then talking for Aubrey before he went back to bed. Tad wanted his special babies to have every advantage, to maybe make up for their less than normal appearance.
