Hal's talent in math and science won him a place at an exclusive prep school. It was a lot farther from home than anyone liked, but he adapted well and was always the top of his class. And he made sure to call and visit often. Freddie still had a lot of trouble keeping his mouth in check, but he'd found a constructive outlet in music lessons. He went three times a week to a small music school nearby and was rapidly becoming a god on the guitar, drums, and piano. Star had begun to attend after-school acting classes, and she seemed destined for the stage. Elanor and Quinn hadn't yet found their passions, but the pair were more than content with each other's company. They both had big imaginations and could amuse themselves for hours just fantizising and playing in the backyard.Newt and Anathema hadn't planned on anymore kids, so when both Hal and Elanor told their mother that they were getting a little sister, the parents were stunned. Clover Zeppelin was another happy little girl, named by her siblings for Star and Elanor's favorite flower and one of Hal and Freddie and Quinn's favorite bands. The family adored their new addition.

DS: Daniel Benjamin Huntington-Ackerman (nb)Sunnie and Sandy's last child came as a bit of a surprise, considering the age gap but the whole family was still ecstatic! Their last child and third son, Daniel Benjamin was born in the city just months later. His first name was chosen in a family vote and Benjamin is after Dr. Waldemar, who at 90 is still living at Walnut Manor! The age gap between youngest and oldest is 15 years, but the family is still pretty close. All the other children excluding baby Daniel are all now going to school in Jupiter, all are excelling in their studies. Their oldest Hana is now planning on becoming a doctor or physician. All the other children are just enjoying their school years. Besides school they play sports, read and the girls like helping with the baby.

DD: Sofia Jessica Caitlin Hale "Kate" (nb)Kate was a rather... unexpected baby. When Kat found out she was pregnant with Kate... she cried. It wasn't time for another baby and besides, wasn't she getting a little too old to still be popping out kids? Max was 14 when she found out and Sasha was four. The age difference between her and her newest siblings would be five years! The biggest age difference between consecutive children, at that point had been between Max and Zack and Jake and Sasha, barely three years! She was not ready for this. Fortunately, Hale wasn't as upset about her pregnancy as she was and at first that annoyed her, but then she realized that he was looking at the glass half-full and decided it could be a good thing. Another child to love. Another child to teach their family business too. Speaking of the business, She and Hale had sent Max and Zack to Eddie's for schooling on shoplifting and pickpocketing from their tenth birthdays on. Both boys had gotten pretty good at their respective trade (Zack pickpocketing, Max both) and soon Eddie was going to teach them how to set up a successful heist, on their own. This makes Kat a little nervous. So does the fact that this year, Abbie is planning on going. She will truly miss her little girl. It's not that she doesn't love Sasha and Kate as much as Abbie, but Abbie is just special... so pure. She still doesn't know if she is going to let her baby go. Jake and Sasha still have a few years to go, so they are attending a private school, just outside city limits, where they teach children who think they want to work for the law. That way, Kat and Hale hope the children will better understand the techniques the government uses and ways to not get caught.

They love it at their new school, though, especially Antonia has made a lot of friends, but the quieter Cynthia is also doing well.
After two miscarriages in the past five years, Elizabeth and Mr Darcy have had another baby, a little boy called Hugh Artur.

Elizabeth delightedly agreed, and they jointly decided on Catherine, after Kitty, who Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy bth had become quite close to since their marriage. Cassie, as they call her, has already proved herself to be more active and inquisitive than any of her siblings were as babies, and is utterly spoiled by all of her brothers and sisters and her cousin Emma. Elizabeth now has the most children of any of her siblings: Jane and Mr. Bingley have four (Henry, Margaret, Alexander, and Eleanor), Mary has two with her husband, a Mr.
