Round 1!
Sorry about that, I had a really busy week of college this week.
Cassandra Grace Logan
The O'Connell Family:
DH: Declan Amadeus O'Connell (30)
DW: Dr. Eliora Tikva Cohen "Liora" (25)
ADS: Gideon Rory O'Connell (nb)
Not that long after Liora began her internship, she was working in the Obstetrics department. One morning, an ambulance radioed that they were bringing in a young pregnant woman. The woman, in the last month of her pregnancy, was in labor. No one came to the hospital with her, and she was able to tell the doctors that she had no immediate family to call. Suddenly, her pain got worse and she was rushed to the delivery room. Liora and the rest of the doctors were able to get the baby delivered safely. However, the woman soon passed away from too much bleeding.
Left with a newborn baby boy, Liora's duty was to try to find the father or any of his family. By the end of the day, she had discovered that the father, an only child with no immediate family just like the mother, had been a police officer killed in the line of duty a few months prior to the birth. The child would become a ward of the state, unless Liora could do something about it.
Her next call was to Declan, who immediately jumped on the idea of fostering with the intent to adopt. As the O'Connells had recently become certified foster parents, it was easier for Children's Services to agree to give them emergency custody of the baby boy. Somehow, they were also given almost immediate word that they could adopt the boy after a mandatory fostering period. This was almost certainly Liora's adoptive grandfather Sergey's doing, as he had a good amount of influence in the country from his longtime position as an ambassador.
The resident on the boy's case gave Liora the duty of working through all the normal tests a newborn would have before leaving the hospital. This was how she discovered that he appeared to have some level of hearing issues - though they wouldn't be able to confirm for sure until he was older.

Question...
Will there ever be a time when, if we're choosing adoption, to get more than one kid at once (as long as all obey the naming rule(s))? Such as siblings or friends or a pregnant mother and baby?

The Charbonne / Hall Family:
Dgf: Clarisse Marine Charbonne (32)
Dgf: Vanessa Leigh Hall (29)
--DS: Maurice Anthony Benton-Charbonne (10)
--DS: Oliver Martin Hall (3)
--DD: Rachel Kaya Charbonne (2)
Clarisse and Vanessa decide to adopt, but the process is not an easy one, especially for an unmarried lesbian couple. They are open to adopting a child of any age and from any country and background. With two boys in the household already, they would prefer a girl to become part of the family. Finally, they find their new daughter only a few miles from their hometown. Rachel was given up for adoption at birth, but because she has deformed legs that will need a lot of medical care, therapy and training, it has been difficult to find a family for her. Clarisse and Vanessa aren't doing great financially themselves, but they are determined to do whatever they can to help Rachel grow and be happy. There's only the problem with the last name... they decide on Clarisses', but the discussion has made them begin thinking about marriage...
Oh, right a description. Rachel is the most adorable two year old you could find. She has curly brown hair and dark, warm eyes that light up when she laughs, and that she does a lot. She is generally a very happy and curious child, learns most things quickly, but doesn't get frustrated if she doesn't. She's seeing a physiotherapist to help her learn to walk and will probably have to have corrective surgery more than once as she grows, but the family is positive she will be able to deal with it well.

My Round 1

The Williams Family:
DH: Jenson Isaac
DH: Elias Joseph
AD: Poppy Beatrice
Jenson and Eli decided to adopt a baby girl! It was a fairly long process but she was definitely worth the wait. Her original name was Poppy Olivia, and she was given up as her mother just simply could not look after her, and thought she would be better off with another family who could give her the love she needed. Jenson and Eli have decided to keep her first name, Poppy, but have changed her middle name to Beatrice, a name they both like, and that of Jenson's mother.
Poppy Beatrice is settling in very well, and Jenson and Eli are enjoying every minute of her. They are doting parents, but Eli is annoying Jenson about how worried he is over every little detail, such as the temperature of the milk! Nevertheless, the family couldn't be happier.

AD: Poppy Beatrice
Poppy is so excited to be getting a little brother or sister! Jenson and Eli decided to adopt a newborn, but are not bothered what sex it is. They were toying with the idea of having a surrogate mother, but decided that Poppy may feel less part of the family if she is adopted but the other baby is biologically related.
Jenson, Eli and Poppy are now proud to welcome another baby girl to the family! Her name was Alice, but neither parents were keen on this and so have named her Isla Grace. She has lovely brown eyes, and has a mass of dark hair at the minute. Poppy is delighted with her new sister, as she also has dark hair and thinks they are going to be like twins! Isla was a small baby, weighing just over 5lbs and is still quite small.

Poppy is so excited to be getting a little brother or sister! Jenson and Eli decided to adopt a newborn, but are not bothered what sex it is. They were toying with the idea of having a surrogate mother, but decided that Poppy may feel less part of the family if she is adopted but the other baby is biologically related.

Lee is hardly a year old when Lou stomps up to her much older cousin and yells, "Ulysses Daniel Cather! Look what you've done to me! I already have one kid, and now I'm gonna have two, and I'm only seventeen! You've ruined me!" She runs off and hides in her bedroom, pulling Lee close to her.
Nine months later, Lou gave birth to a beautiful baby girl--Briseis-Andromache "Andi" Susannah Holmesworthy. ( http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/200490872-001/Photographers-Choice-RF )
Unfortunately for Lou, JJ and Nikki are both jealous that she has two babies and they only have one each--and they're both toddlers, too. Poor Lou!

-dFinace(Deceased): Miguel "Mike" Alejandro Jimenez (26)
--DD: Claudia Rajani Singh-Jimenez (3)
--DD: Lola Anjali Singh-Jimenez (1)
After much consideration, Meera decided to adopt a daughter from India. All of her grandparents and her father were born there, so she felt that she wanted to help. She adopted a one year old from India, who had been called Anjali. The baby had dark black hair and dark eyes. She was skinny, but very happy and laughed at everything. Meera named her new daughter Lola, but kept Anjali as her middle name. She chose to make her last name hyphenated as well, mostly because she didn't want her to feel less important than Claudia.
Meera's friends and family were very supportive of her decision. And everyone in the family is quite happy. Lola is adjusting well to life in America, and is now better fed. Claudia likes having a sister, though sometimes she gets a bit jealous.
Meera is content with two children for the moment, but in the future, might wish to have another child, either by adoption or her own. She is finally starting to get over Mike's death and perhaps would consider starting to date again, though she has yet to find the right guy.

Theodore and Simon aren't quite sure what to make of the new addition since they can't play with him yet but they try to be quiet when he's napping.
Shaina has gotten her required credits and is going to be going to school at the local college next year to become a nurse.
Charlotte has made a lot of friends at the church and has started helping out with most of their charity events. She also runs the GSA club in her High School and has been getting stellar marks in school.

Round 1....
The Rodriguez-Shafir family had only been living in their new home of Italy for a few weeks when Cate discovered she was pregnant. It was a big of a shock for the couples, as they had planned to hold off on having kids for a few more years, just until they got the hang of living a nomadic life. Still, by the time baby Molly arrived, everyone was thrilled and ready for her. Cate and Carlos decided to name her after Carlos's mother, Maria, and they liked the name Alessia, and so their child came to be named Mary Alessia. The family has decided to call her Molly for short. Molly has blonde hair and blue eyes, eyes that Kate thinks may change color later on in her lifetime. Cate, Carlos, Talia, and Elad have decided that they will parent their children together. Cate will be known as mom, Talia as ima, Elad as abba, and Carlos as papa. Molly is a very happy baby and loves to be held, especially by either of her two mothers.

DW: Catherine Jane "Cate" Rodriguez (29)
DD: Mary Alessia "Molly" Rodriguez (2)
A few weeks after Molly was born the family left Italy for Spain and soon after left Spain for France. Right before their departure from Spain, Tali discovered she was pregnant. Although it was planned, Tali was still worried when she found out. Molly had proven to be an ima's girl, above anything, and she did not want to ruin her relationship with the little girl (and at the same time, she worried that if both children were drawn to her it could cause Cate to feel resentment to her, and Cate was her best friend). Fortunately that was not the case. After the birth of Amit, the family decided to spend an extra few months in France, adapting to being a family of six, before moving on to a new country.
The days of the family go on at a relatively slow pace. Every morning Elad and Carlos head to work at their hospital, a small, nearby one. Molly attends a nearby preschool, something Tali insisted on so that the little girl learns the language. Then, Cate watches the baby while Tali works as a blogger (Cate's father's best friend's fifth wife expressed interest in their lifestyle, when she heard about it, and offered to pay them to blog about it). After their work is done, Cate and Tali do the chores, and Tali eventually heads over to the preschool to pick up her favorite little blondie.
Weekends are always fun for the family. Carlos, Tali, Elad, and Cate take turns planning what to do, each getting their own weekend per month. Sometimes they take the kids with them, and other times they leave Molly and Amit with the sitter.
Molly speaks French fluently now, as well as Spanish, and the parents are working on English, Italian, and Hebrew with her. They hope, one day, she will thank them for her unusual upbringing.

DD: Lyla Kearney Winchester-Gray (3)
DD: Amabel Ione Winchester-Gray (nb)
A few months before Lyla's third birthday Aurelia, Linus and Adrian decide it's time to have another child. The first attempt of insemination fails but the second one is a success and Aurelia gets pregnant. All three parents are excited about the pregnancy and Lyla can't wait to meet her little sister or brother. As Lyla resembles Linus so much, the parents are also very curious to see what Adrian's child will look like. Pregnancy goes otherwise well but Aurelia feels very tired and spends most of her days in bed drawing cute animal pictures for Lyla to color and browsing baby name books. Sometimes Aurelia feels sad as she knows that her parents don't accept her choice to have a family with a gay couple and don't even want to meet her children. But seeing little Lyla being happy and loved makes her absolutely sure that she wouldn't ever trade her family with Adrian and Linus to anything.
Little Amabel Ione is born a month early and is quite small but otherwise perfectly healthy. She has Adrian's brown hair and seems to have Aurelia's blue eyes. She is a calm, happy baby who loves being cuddled. Lyla is a great big sister and likes to help her parents to take care of little Amabel. She can't wait when Amabel is old enough to play all her favorite games with her. All three parents are very happy about their two daughters and are hoping to have more children in few years.

The Harrison Family:
Parent: Elinor Daphne Harrison
DD: Estella "Stella" Kathleen Harrison [3]
DD: Amelia "Amy" Jennifer Harrison [nb]
Elinor is overjoyed when, on the morning of Stella's third birthday, she gets a postive pregnancy test! Donor 118E has been lucky for her again, this time in only two cycles, leaving 3 vials still in cold storage. She's on cloud nine, eagerly anticipating the near future when a baby boy or girl, perhaps with hair as red and eyes as blue as Stella's, will be in her arms.
Her second pregnancy seems as "textbook" as her first until she starts to throw up. Initially, she's not concerned; she had morning sickness with Stella, too. She knows it's a common symptom, and it can even be a positive sign that things are progressing normally. As the weeks pass, however, this proves to be anything but normal. Her nausea and vomiting intensify, and her weight begins to drop alarmingly as she begins to vomit up to 20 times a day. When she almost passes out after being unable to keep down even small sips of water, her neighbor takes her to the emergency room. The diagnosis: hyperemesis gravidarium resulting in dehydration and malnutrition. She is prescribed antiemetics, intravenous therepy to be administered by a home care nurse, and, when she can stomach it, a diet of clear liquids and bland foods.
For the first time, being a single parent is truly hard for Elinor. How can she care for Stella, to say nothing of working full time and taking care of their house, when she can't pick her head up from her pillow without the world spinning? She weighs her pride against Stella's needs and does the hardest thing: She asks for help, and she feels touched and blessed as her family and friends respond. Her beloved sister-in-law leaves her own family and comes to Elinor's aid, staying with her for up to a week a time to help her through the worst of it. Her neighbor's teenaged sons take over caring for her lawn, feeding the dogs, and bringing in her mail. Dear friends made through her local Single Moms by Choice chapter show up offering to mop floors or handle the grocery shopping. With their help and with an eye on the prize--her due date--Elinor and Stella make it through.

If its a girl Micah wants to name it "Emy" Emlyn Shea Ferrell, if a boy Kieran was his first name to be after his Father, Nolan and his middle name to be Denver, to carry on Micah's family name.

Just after Lily's adoption went through, Amelia found out she was pregnant again. She and the kids were all ecstatic to find out there would be another baby added to the family, especially Sophie. She is quite mature for her age and loves the idea of being a big sister. The ongoing fight with Bennie's biological mother over Amelia's desire to adopt him couldn't dampen their spirits. When they found out the baby was a girl, they all sat down and talked about her name together. It was Lily who suggested Evangeline, a name from her favorite movie, The Princess and the Frog. The entire family loved it, even Sophie, who says "Evanglee." Leo selected Violet, tocontinue the flower theme with Lily and Sophie and also after his grandmother.
The excitement turned to fear when Amelia began to experience pain and nausea late in her pregnancy. What was expected to be a routine trip to the doctor turned into a rush to an operating room when it was discovered she was preeclamptic.

The two of them had gotten really close and she didn't want to hurt her feelings. One evening they all sat down and talked about the future, and Cora admitted to Sophia that she was expecting once again. Sophia bursted into tears. She was happy for the whole family, but afraid that she might never get pregnant. Maybe she couldn't even get pregnant?
This pregnancy was hard for Sophia, and because of that Elliot and Cora decided that she could name the baby. It was another girl - named Alice Rhiannon.

They're currently talking about having their own kids since Stella's birth. The baby has Heath's black hair and Laney's grey eyes. She's tinier than the other babies were when they were born, and because she was born a few weeks early, the doctors had to keep her for observation. Ria spent everyday in the hospital with her Aunt Remy and new baby sister. Though she has explained that her aunt is having her baby sister to her kindergarten teacher, which caused some confusion. Sophie doesn't really seem fazed. She loves playing with little Declan, but adding another baby into the equation never seemed to interest her. Laney's a tad disappointed that she cannot bear children, but it doesn't stop her or Heath keep them from loving Stella with all of their hearts.

After hearing that Laney couldn't have children, and knowing that her husband didn't want any children of his own, Remy decided to help her little sister by acting as the surrogate for Laney and her husband.

Finished my round 1 (now with photos!)
The Foster-Lucas Family:
DH: Logan Jeremy Foster-Lucas (29)
DH: Benjamin Nathan Foster-Lucas "Benji" (24)
DS: Smith Valjean Foster-Lucas (nb)
Logan & Benji have recently welcomed a son, whom they have named Smith Valjean. Their little boy came to them with the help of a surrogate, a lovely woman they found via an agency. There was much debate once they decided to go down that path as to which of them would be the biological father, but they couldn't decide on a fair way to do that so they decided to let fate decide. Their surrogate was implanted with two embryos, one biologically related to Logan, and the other to Benji. Only one took however, and they do not know, nor do they care, which of them is Smith's biological father at this point, though they realise that it may become obvious as Smith gets older.
Now, Smith Valjean is obviously a rather unusual name, but Logan & Benji love it as their baby is named after two of their all time favorite characters... Smith Jerrod from Sex and the City, and Jean Valjean from Les Miserables.

The Foster-Lucas Family:
DH: Logan Jeremy Foster-Lucas (29)
DH: Benjamin Nathan Foster-Lucas "Benji" (24)
DS: Smith Valjean Foster-Lucas (nb)
Little Smith is three when Logan and Benji decide he needs a sibling. The surrogate worked last time. Do they want to use that method again or do they want to try adoption? How does little Smith react to his new brother/sister?
The sex and name of the child is your choice, but either their first or middle name must start with the letter H or N.
Also, either use a picture or give us a short description of this child’s appearance.

DS: Smith Valjean Foster-Lucas (3)
DD: Annie Nala Foster-Lucas
Logan & Benji's careers have really taken off with Logan having 3 exhibitions in popular New York gallerys planned for the next 6 months, and Benji just getting a job as choreographer for 'The Lion King' on broadway! Smith is a handsome boy, and while they still don't really care which of them is in fact his biological father, time has pointed that arrow firmly in Benji's direction as the resemblance between them as Smith grows is becoming very obvious.
When Smith was 2 and a half, they decided that they were ready to expand their family. After much discussion as to their options they again decided to use a surrogate and contacted the same agency they had used to conceive Smith. They asked if they were able to use the same woman again, but were disappointed when they were told that she was no longer on the agencies books. They queried if perhaps the agency would be willing to contact her just to make sure she definitely wasn't interested seeing as it was a sibling for a child she'd already carried, and they were thrilled when she agreed given the special circumstances. With the same surrogate secured, they then turned to the subject of this childs paternity. They knew by now that Smith was Bemji's biological son, the resemblance becoming uncanny, so decided that it was only far that this child be fathered by Logan. Once again their surrogate went through IVF and all parties concerned were so excited when she became pregnant on the first round.
The pregnancy went smoothly and their excitment only grew when they found out that they were to welcome a little girl. Logan and Benji have been talking to Smith a lot about what it means to be a big brother and have a little sister to look out for, and Smith is very excited to meet her when she arrives. They decided to once again name their daughter after things that are important to them, and have choosen the name Annie Nala. Annie is after the photographer Annie Leibovitz who has been an inspiration for Logan throughout his career, and Nala, well everyone knows who Nala is, and it seemed fitting with Benji now working on 'The Lion King'.
