Non-Traditional Family Congrats Round 3
Welcome to Round 3! I've decided to update more often, as soon as I see that most people have finished. I know I usually hate waiting a week between rounds of a game. I'm going to try to post at least once during the week and then once on the weekend.
So, without further ado, let's get to it!
The Rules
1. If you miss more than three rounds period you will be dropped. You do not have to make up missed rounds, but you do not get the children for the missed round.
2. Make sure you keep your family type listed before your family so I can keep up with who is doing what.
3. Please bold new additions. This can be done by using < b > name here < /b > without the spaces.
4. Ages are required.

After only a few months of dating Hallie got pregnant. She wasn't ready for another baby, but Kyle surprised her by being very excited about it. He made plans for them to get a small house with the three kids and Hallie let herself believe him and get excited too. Unfortunately, when it got closer for the baby to be born Kyle left her for another girl. Hallie was upset, but forgot all about it when she laid eyes on little Maxellendis Brownie Edgar Carter "Brownie" (Edgar after her grandfather and Brownie after one of her favorite blues singers, Brownie Mcghee.

In the two years since Celeste gave birth to James, she found a lovely single father named Matthew. He had a newborn daughter and was still getting over the heartbreak of losing his wife because of complications during the birth of his daughter. At the time Celeste had been a friend, offering to help him with whatever he and his daughter, Emma-Marie Grace, needed. Less than a year later they were dating, and within six months married. Emma-Marie's first birthday, and the anniversary of his first wife's death, had just passed when Celeste found out she was pregnant. Both she and Matthew were excited, though Matthew was desperately afraid of losing his wife again. Nine months later, Christopher Matthew Harrison was brought into the world, and their family couldn't be happier.

“We‘ll be waiting at home sad and lonely,” Leo reminded Rónán as he stood behind the kitchen counter and watched Rónán throw his things over his shoulder in the foyer. “So, come home as soon as this thing is over. Also, remember Murray and I are home with not only two rambunctious little ones, but Mabel times two as well.”
“That certainly makes me want to hurry home,” Rónán joked as he shoved his keys in his coat pocket.
Leo walked into the foyer and kissed Rónán goodbye. “No seriously. As soon after two as possible would be fabulous.”
“If I‘m not home by three, I‘ll call and make sure you and Murray are still alive.” Rónán joked and kissed Leo quickly.
“Nooo!” Mabel could be heard calling. “Promise me you won‘t do that tonight!”
“And why not?” Leo laughed and Murray came hurrying in with pink boots in his hands.
“Shoes!” Murray reminded and Mabel took them and sat down. She looked up at her father with an exasperated expression.
“Because you‘ll gross Gemma out!” she exclaimed and the three men laughed. “I told her you were not all gross and stuff.” She looked at Murray as she slipped her second foot into the fuzzy pink boot. “Dad already had to meet with her mom and pretend to be normal.”

Question!
I know you mentioned that we could adopt siblings.
Mabel was a character I started the game with, but would you mind if my family adopted her half-sister or half-brother?
I just want to see how it would affect Leo (and the others) to adopt a child related to his daughter, but not to him.

That would actually be really interesting...go for it!
With adoptions, will it ever be possible to choose to adopt twins/other multiples/siblings?

Eliora has been doing pretty well since she started therapy following her arrival to the United States. She's had some nightmares on and off that cause her to wake up crying and screaming a bit. Usually in the few minutes that it takes Julia or Ari to get to her room down the hall, Misha's already beaten them to calming her down.
The two kids get along great. Misha has been teaching Liora, as he still calls her, a bit of Russian and she's taught him some Hebrew in return. Having them at the same school has also helped - Eliora knows where Misha is during the day if she gets scared, since she's had some of the same culture shock he had when he started. Auntie Julie and Uncle Ari, as Eliora has been calling them, even enrolled her in a ballet class and she's taken to it very well. It was great for them to see her make some new friends. Misha walks her to the community center after school for class, where he is enrolled in a science/robotics activity.

Answer, everyone who adopts please read!
I didn't think about it at first, but now that you mention it, yes. Starting this round, if you would like to adopt multiples or siblings, you may adopt up to twins or three siblings (or any combination thereof). Just let me know you want to adopt more than one kid and I'll give you the genders/ages for the other one(s).

Evan & Heather recently welcomed their 3rd child together, Mason. With 8 children in a tiny house that was only meant for a family of maybe 4 or 5, the house was getting very crowded. Evan decided to surprise the children and found a new house, on the edge of town with a large property and lots of bedrooms.
The children were very excited. The new house has 6 bedrooms, lots of trees and even a tire swing! Despite the heavy amount of bickering, the new house created a much more peaceful atmosphere.

A few months after Gabe was born, the agency that put them together with Camilla put them with a baby boy only a year old. His name was Sam, and his story was a sad one. His father had been a drug addict who abandoned his mother when he found out she was pregnant. Sam's mother, who had battled depression all her life, committed suicide only a few weeks after giving birth. He had ben in foster care ever since then, and he was eventually placed with the O'Neals, who were registered as foster parents. They loved him dearly, and after only a few weeks he felt as if he had always been part of the family. They wanted to adopt him right away, but legal red tape and then the father's interference kept the adoption from being finalized for almost two years. But recently everything was settled, and Sam became an official part of the family!
