    SO: Fallon Eden (24)
    DS: Dominik Alexander (5)
    DD/DD: Matilda Fallon / Ava Sophia (3)
    DS: Jude ZachariahIn the three years since Stellan and Fallon welcomed their twins, it seemed that life just couldn't get any better. Dominik was starting kindergarten soon, Matilda and Ava were perfectly healthy and adorable little girls, and Fallon had just found out she was expecting again. (The couple had been planning on getting married, but Fallon didn't want to be a pregnant bride, and so they opted to wait until after the birth of their baby.) But of course, what can go wrong will go wrong. Out of the blue, a woman named Lauren Clay came forward and identified Stellan as her ex-boyfriend and father of her nine-year-old daughter Annabelle. The news completely rocked the Guilford family. Stellan didn't deny that he had been in a relationship with Lauren during his sophomore year in high school, but it had ended after only a few months, at which point Lauren had transfered to another school. He did, however, completely reject the idea that Annabelle could be his daughter, stating that she looked nothing like him or his other children. Nonetheless, the court ordered him to take a paternity test.The stress of the whole situation negatively affected Fallon's pregnancy, and she went into premature labor. As if this weren't enough, this happened on the day Dominik was supposed to start school! Luckily, Fallon gave birth to a healthy baby boy, who they named Jude Zachariah. But as Stellan awaited the results of the DNA test, Fallon swore that if he turned out to be Annabelle's father, there was no way she could agree to marry him anymore. What other secrets could he be keeping from her? How could be possibly be devoted to her and their children, when he had another family to care for?At the end of the day, however, the test proved that Stellan was not the father of Annabelle Clay, and he was free to go home and enjoy his new son and be with his family. He and Fallon are now in the process of planning their wedding.

    DW: Winter Bellona (27)
    DS/DS/DS: August Sean / Jesse Cleveland / River Johannes (3)
    DD/DD: Evangeline Ruby / Oriana Charlotte After much consideration, Winter and Rohan decided to try IVF again, and they had two beautiful twin girls that have joined their three older bothers.
    These last months have been pretty exciting for the Bates family! The twins were born in the early morning, after 8 hours of labour and they were soon discharged from hospital. Winter was surprised as to how easy this labour was in comparison with the triplets'. The three boys are really happy of having, not one, but two little sisters to look after them.
    Soon after the girls were born, Gus, Jess and River started pre-school. They were really excited with the idea but as soon as they reached the school, Jess and River started to cry ; Gus was really happy and he almost forgot to say goodbye to Winter and Rohan. As soon as Jess and River realised how happy her brother was, they got excited as well.
    On their way back to home, Gus, Jess, River and Rohan found a little female kitten and they took it home. Winter decided it was fine to keep it as long as it didn't bother the baby girls. The boys named it Ms Wiskers, but when they took it to the vet, they realised it was a male, so it became Mr Whiskers.

    DS/DD: Rhett Atticus / Johanna Katherine (3)
    DD/DD: Ruby Evangeline/ Coco Angelina [Possible father: Lowell Frederick Hart]Theron couldn't believe he already had 4 children before the age of 30. He had expected to be a bachelor well into his 30s, but here he was, a young doctor with an seemingly ever-growing brood. He made it clear to Roxanne that he did not want any more children, and Roxanne agreed as she was tired and wanted to lose her baby weight. Secretly, however, Roxanne really wanted more children and was jealous that Theron had a son (Fernando) who was not hers. Roxanne started sneaking around with one of Theron's partners in his plastic surgery practice, Dr. Lowell Hart, who was married and had 3 children of his own. When Roxanne found out she was pregnant she was a bit nervous about what Theron would say but wickedly exciting because she thinks the child might be Lowell's. She became even more nervous about telling Theron when she found out she was carrying twins AGAIN. She finally got her courage up to tell her husband, but conveniently left out the part about the babies not being his. Theron was upset and screamed about how he thought they had "taken measures" to keep this from happening. Roxanne just cried and accused him of not loving her or their children. After several days of not speaking to Roxanne, Theron finally came to terms with the fact that he would be having 2 more children, and the couple made up. Meanwhile Lowell tries to convince Roxanne to leave Theron and move to California with him. The thought of leaving her other children outrages Roxanne and she promptly ends her relationship with Lowell, assuring him that the children she is carrying are Theron's and not his. She, of course, doesn't know if this is true, but she decides to keep the secret to herself.

    My little Noah is growing up so fast! He has started kindergarten, and the first day Rohan and me brought him there, and the kindergarten teacher's wife was there. Turns out she is a woman I went to school with. The world is small, sometimes. Anyway, Noah loves kindergarten, and when I asked him if he was a little nervous before starting, he said: "I am a big kid now, so I'm not scared". Very cute.
    He has now been going to kindergarten for about a month. A few days ago, I gave birth to my second daughter, whom we named Skye Noelle, to honor Rohan's mother, who grew up on the Isle of Skye. Our Skye was born right on her due date, and she was the easiest birth so far. Skye is not as quiet as Pennie was, but what a beautiful baby, if I say so myself.Child number: 2

    Fin started kindergarten. Although he's got many friends, he's not progressing very well in his speeching and talking, so we decided to go in therapy with Fin. That's a half year ago now, and he's progressing very well, so in another two weeks he won't go to therapy anymore.
    With Xander averything is well. He was thrilled having a little sister. He wants to hold and play with her all of the time. We started to call him Derry or Delly because Fin started to call him that.

(Her name is: Rowena Maiara Lewis) (You are allowed to bend the naming rules if you decide to do this)Ryan and Carrie were thrilled to welcome the newest addition to their family, a baby girl they named, Ava Maria. Her first name was one they both liked, and her middle name is in honor of Carrie's cousin (the two are very close), whose middle name they switched up slightly from Maiara to Maria.Ava was joyously welcomed to the world by her big brother Grant (now 5) and big sister Kate (now 3). Grant just started kindergarten, and being the active little boy he is, his parents were a little worried with how he would do sitting in class for most of the day. But to their surprise (and thankfulness), he has taken wonderfully to school and is quite the little scholar. He already knew how to write his name, but now finds that he loves reading and adding numbers. He has made many friends and enjoys playing ball outside.Kate is a mommy's girl and loves to help take care of her baby sister. She's a sweet little girl with a wonderful disposition. Grant thinks he's quite the teacher, since he's showing her the ABCs and how to count to 10. She loves every minute of it, and can't wait to go to school, herself. Her favorite activities are playing with her dolls and coloring.Child number: 7

Leo and Digby were surprised to hear that, because he's usually not much trouble at home. They hope it'll get better soon when he's more used to being around strange kids. Orion is doing really well. He's really bright and curious. Leo and Digby had decided not to send him to pre-school, and keep him at home, since Leo is at home anyway. Digby and Leo got pregnant again. They didn't really try to get pregnant, but they were not really trying very hard to prevent it either. They were both very happy to find out that they were expecting and had waited until the birth to find out if it was going to be a boy or a girl. It was a good thing Jonas turned out to be a boy, because mom and dad were still arguing about whether to name their new addition Ruby or Nina two hours before the arrival of Jonas. Digby's sister also just had a son, and asked Digby to become his Gosfather. Digby was flattered by the idea and was happy to accept. Child number: 7

    DS/DD/DS: Thomas Boaz / Bianca Iphigenia / George AugustinePaul was so excited for the start of kindergarten. He couldn't stop talking about his teacher, Mrs. Briggs, and about the new friends he was making. He hit it off right away with a girl named Elaine, who they had at their house for playdates very frequently after that.Tova decided to try to get pregnant through IVF again because both she and Hero wanted more kids. They were shocked to find out she was pregnant with triplets! Paul was very excited to have more little siblings. Gwendolen wasn't so sure, being used to being the baby of the family, and didn't enjoy having Momma's attention taken away from her. The allure of having a sister, though, won her over and she warmed up to the idea. Child number: 13

Nora absolutely loves school because she gets to play with so many other children and has sudden exposure to new books. Growing up around the university, she had plenty of influence to read and learn and has been reading to Mareis and Justis since she was about 3. When Fiona Charlotte was born, the big kids were asked to help pick out a name. Nora championed that effort, choosing Fiona as her first name after the princess in Shrek and Charlotte after her favorite book that she and mommy read together, Charlotte's web. Sabia and Raphael loved her choices and since they fit very well with the other kids, they made it official. Mareis has a little trouble pronouncing her name though and an unofficial family nickname has been the result, "Fifi."Child number: 8

This time, Vic was around for the labour, and got to choose the name-- he was not at all impressed with my choice of Prarie Rose. Ginny's name was chosen in honour of his grandmother, Ruth-Ann Virginia. Lately, Vic and I have been discussing adopting a child from Japan.

    DD/DD/DD: Isabella Destiny, Charlotte Serenity and Bianca SkyeDCat: SimbaLiam has started school. My baby is growing up way too fast for my liking.
    So far he is enjoying school, his first day was hard, he cried a lot and so did I. Whenever he brings home homework we get special time together because he refuses to let daddy help him.
    We recently gave birth to the triplets. I was hoping for atleast one girl but got 3. They are so tiny and perfect.
    Even though they are still in the hospital, Liam has been such a great help. Every night before we leave to go home he kisses them before bed and says a prayer for them.
    We are hoping to bring them home in a few weeks.Child number: 9

    Girls: Elsa, Katherine, Eliza, Claire, Gretchen, Naomi, Leah, ClaudiaRowan and Colleen have started Kindergarten. After debating (and many discussions with Rowan's preschool special ed teachers) we have decided to enroll him in a special School for the Deaf. We are hopeful that in a few years he can transition to a Public School. Colleen attends kindergarten at the local Elementary School just down the street from us. The initial spereration was very hard on both of them, but they seem to be adjusting and have both made new best friends. Charlie for Rowan (he also attends the School for the Deaf) and Abigail (who lives 3 houses away) for Colleen. Both of the twins are very athletic and belong to both Soccer and T-Ball Teams (together for both). Margot is growing like a weed. She's a very precosious 3 year old that loves going to Preschool and taking gymnastics and dance class. She's a very girly-girl unlike Colleen who is all tom-boy.We were blessed with the arrival of our 4th child (a total surprise!!!). Although she wasn't planned we are thrilled and can't imagine our lives without Sarah. The pregnancy was rough though. Carys developed Gestational Diabetes and had to go on insulin. Sarah was also breech and Carys didn't get to attempt another VBAC. Rowan and Colleen are thrilled with their new little sister. Margot wasn't so sure at first and displayed alot of jealousy. BUT the "little mama" in her kicked in and now she adores little Sarah and loves helping Mama take care of her.
