Write a sentence, a paragraph, or more about your family! I will give you prompts for each round and you can decide how much detail to provide. Round 4:
Just a year after the last child, your family welcomes another baby! This baby is the opposite gender of the older children, and his/her name is up to you. How did the couple choose this baby's name? How are the older kids adjusting to the new baby? What does a typical day look like for your family?

Kaia and Bennett are overjoyed to have a daughter as well and the boys are in love with their little sister, most of the time.

DDog[4]: CocoOnly a year after Rose, a baby boy has been welcomed into the Smith family. His first name is Jack, which is Henry's Dad's name, and his middle name is Oliver, Alice's friend's middle name. Life is very tiresome, but the couple are coping. Lily is becoming a very arty girl, while Rose has developed an interest in sports, especially swimming with Lily and Alice. Each day is similar, Henry goes to work, Lily goes to school, Rose goes to nursery. They have lots of friends!

DD1 (4): Adeline Kia

DD2 (1): Noble Mia
DS1 (NB): Oberon Zia

Ddog: Puff (Chinese Crested Dog)Nova and Stetson have just welcomed their third child, a boy!
They named him Oberon Zia, because Oberon shares some of the same laters as Noble, and Zia, because it rhymes with Kia and Mia.
Adeline is not happy about this, as she had just finally adjusted to Noble being around.
Nova again takes a break to care for her new baby. This also gives her time to care for Noble, who is too young to care much about Oberon. Adeline starts kindergarten. She is very smart for her age (most of her classmates are 5), but her behaviour could use some work. As if two new babies and starting kindergarten weren'g big enough changes, the family has moved from their apartment into a house. Mornings are hectic as Stetson prepares for work, while Nova gets Adeline ready for kindergarten, and keeps up with her younger two children!

DD [1]: Violet Stella Stephens
DS [nb]: Jasper Conrad StephensDDog [3]: BlakeAs much as they love their daughters, Felix and Jess have been praying for a baby boy, and they finally got their wish! They were so thrilled that, when it came time to pick the name, they let Annabelle choose. She insisted right away on Casper, after her favorite movie; Jess then modified the name to Jasper, which she (Jess) liked better. Annabelle liked that suggestion, so it stuck. Jasper’s middle name, Conrad, is honoring Jess’s maternal grandpa who died when she was a little girl.Annabelle is in love with her baby brother, always asking to help with him. Violet is the same way, and she loves to snuggle with Jess as she nurses Jasper. As for Blake, he’s just as curious about Jasper as he was about Violet. He’s also very well-behaved around him; he’s been trained to wait for a command before he can interact with Jasper.A typical day starts at 6 am, which is when Felix needs to get up for work. Felix is pretty fast when it comes to getting ready, so by the time he’s all set, 6:45, he has time to kiss the kids goodbye; Jess is now also up and giving Jasper his morning nursing.

Evie was just 6 months old when Anya found out for was three weeks pregnant! This third baby wasn't particularly planned but the family are excited nonetheless. For Evie, she doesn't know much different while another sibling for Octavia is like water off a duck's back.
When the newest nipper is born, everybody is delighted he arrives a boy! Anya and Stefan waste no time is naming him the boy name they have had picked out for four years - Parker - unlike his sister's, they give him only one middle name, after his dad.With Evie still at home fulltime, barely toddling, fairly nonverbal and no where near potty trained, having a newborn baby is much tougher than when Octavia was a toddler and Eve was born. But now Octavia is starting school five full days a week and she's much more interested in keeping Evie entertained now that the child can move and understand toys. Octavia is fascinated with Parker and enjoys helping out in any way she can but she's also good with Evie, telling her not to get upset when Anya's busy with Parker and telling stories to her of when she was younger and Eve was born.A typical day for the Lovejoys:
6AM - Stefan and Anya are up; usually with Parker too.
7AM - Stefan wakes the other kids if they're not already up and heads off to work.
8:15AM - Anya bundles Eve and Parker into the double buggy and heads off with Octavia in tow to the local nursery school.
10AM - mid morning is snack time for Evie.
12:30PM - Anya makes lunch for Evie.
2:30PM - Evie and Parker are once again in the buggy and off to school to pick up Octavia; Anya's packed a little snack for Eve and Octavia on the way home.
5:30PM - Stef is home by now, tea is cooked and the family sit down for their evening meal together. Afterwards it's bath time for Eve and Octavia then straight to bed for Evie.
7PM - It's bed time for Octavia with a story.
And the rest of the evening is for Stefan and Anya [and Parker].

DS: William August Avery
DD: Amelia Penelope AveryDdog: Bess
Taylor got pregnant quickly after giving birth to Will. They were very happy to find out that they were expecting a baby girl! They had trouble agreeing on a name this time around as well, and they both wanted a name that contained the letters I and A, as the boys names. They ended up with Amelia as the first name and wanted something just a little bit less popular for the middle name and thus went with Penelope.

With Nani and Flora being 3 years apart, and Esmeralda being only one year apart from one of her sisters, the couple is excited to have a new baby- a boy, to Sasha's delight. Sebastian gets his middle name and nickname from his great-uncle Mikhail (Sasha's maternal uncle). Nani adores little Misha, but Flora doesn't quite understand what's going on just yet.

DS [nb] Elian Madoc KleinDDog [3] BeeWelcome Elian! As with his sisters, Elian’s first name is very Dutch and his middle name is very Welsh. While Elian was a surprise, Pascal and Bronwen are happy to have him. Di, who just got used to Sam, is not so pleased. She's started kindergarten recently, though, and so far she loves it. Sam is still too little to really know what's going on, and Bee just loves to investigate Elian. Bronwen has been thinking of working from home, but so far has not begun to look into it.

After an easy pregnancy, the Fairchilds welcome a little girl - Josie. She was named after Eleanor's grandmother, who passef away about 3 months before her birth. John is frustrated by the diversion of attention, but also fascinated by Josie's serene sleeps, and before long he wants to help out with his baby sister!

DS: Elijah Jude Lennox "Eli" (4)
DS: Isaiah Levi Lennox (1)
DD: Rebekah Faith Lennox "Bekah" (0)
Dog: Max (male Black Lab mix)(7)Jon and Katie were surprised to find out that Katie was expecting just six months after Isaiah's birth; however, they were so excited when their daughter, Rebekah, was born. Although Eli loved Isaiah when he was a baby, he now knows what babies are like and really didn't want another one around. Jon and Katie are needing to spend a little extra time with him, and are hoping that he'll warm up to his little sister soon. Isaiah doesn't have much of an opinion about Rebekah, except that she's a baby and that Katie is always telling him to be gentle with the baby. When Jon and Katie found out that Katie was expecting, they took a hard look at their lifestyle and decided to cut out a lot of their "extras" so that Katie could quit her job and stay home with the kids. Daycare for three kids under five was going to be expensive. Katie loves staying home with the kids and takes them out to the park or the playground or the library almost every day. Eli likes having Katie home, but doesn't yet understand that she is not going back to work once the baby is older, like she did with Isaiah.
