I'm playing with characters from a story of mine. Don't let their names confuse you.
Shea is the boy. Finley is the girl.
LN: Avery
Your name: Ryan Fionán "Finley"
Age: 29
Occupation: Stay-at-home mom, but often helps a local sanctuary with caring for animals that need a little extra care.
Interests: animals, classic reading, The Beatles, flower gardening.
Disabilities: Not a disability, but I have recently undergone gender reassignment and am on hormones.
Your SO's name: Shealyn Moana "Shea"
Age: 31
Occupation: Fashion Designer
Interests: fashion, travel, music, politics
Disabilities: Occasional mild depression (like every other human being except it's diagnosed.)
Child(ren) living with you (names, ages, interests, disabilities): Son, Briar Xol (21mo). Enjoys cartoons, playing outside, and sorting things into colors, shapes, etc. No disabilities.
Others living with you (names, relations): My older twin sister Siân and her family live on the same property, but not the same house. The property is rather large so there plenty of space between us. Her children are only acres away whenever a playmate is needed though.
Pet(s) (names, species): Georgiana (fennec fox) and Magnolia (teacup yorkshire terrier) and a decently large saltwater aquarium. Will possibly be hand-raising a baby otter soon.
Location: Kyle, Scotland
Do you travel often? If so, where to and how often: Shea travels often for business and we sometimes travel back to his native home of Tahiti. We don't usually travel with him for business, but when he goes home, we all go to Tahiti as a family. This usually only happens once or twice a year.
What is/are the household’s religion(s): None. But I like to keep a decent sense of balance for personal security reasons.
What language(s) do household members speak: English primarily. Shea also speaks fluent French and Tahitian. I speak some French, some Romani ("gypsy"), and some Gaelic. I'm also fluent in sign language (I've had a deaf best friend over half of my life).

Elijah & Aidan are doing wonderfully in the Russell household! Angela, Kristen, & Lauren really love having two younger brothers. Especially Lauren, she has a brother her age to play with and have fun. Angela loves that she and Aidan have the same first letter for there first names. She loves to me the "other mommy" to Aidan. She's a big help to Lydia. Kristen loves playing with both boys, she thinks that having two brothers is the best.
Anthony's loves having two boys, he can't wait til they're older to teach them how to play baseball and football. Lydia also loves having two boys, but it's very different from raising 3 girls. It's a good challenge and can't wait til the 5 of them grow up together and be best friends for life.

Ryan took to James straight away; they found common ground in their love of acting. Sam however took a bit longer to come out of his shell but now he's doing great, I think he likes me best. Both boys spend every weekend with their uncle Joseph. Rex has learnt not to bother their cat...he will always lose.
Jess and Chloe have become inseparable. Jess gave birth a few weeks ago to a baby girl called Bethany, both are doing fine and she has taken to motherhood wonderfully. The whole family gives her lots of help and support and the new baby has brought out a side of Chloe neither me nor James knew was there, responsibility.

Please update on Aldo and Luca!
Aldo Giuseppe (7) and Luca Vittorio (8) are brothers from Turin, Italy. Their single mother died in a car accident about a year ago, but they would still like to keep in contact with their only living relative (their grandmother). Both boys have been raised Catholic, their first language is Italian and they are learning English as a second language. Aldo is a more quiet boy, he enjoys reading, art and history. Luca is very social and outgoing, and he enjoys most sports, video games and playing outside. Both Aldo and Luca have dark brown hair and brown eyes. They would also like to keep their dog Vito if possible.

Update
Aldo and Luca have been living very happily with us now. Luca spends most of his time with me, chattering about his achievements with the Xbox or asking to play football. He loves watching me working around with the up-and-coming games (especially since he thinks Pappa Gabriele always has sneak peeks at new games). His English is progressing rapidly, and he has taken a new interest in training Vito.
Aldo, on the other hand, prefers to trail Louisa Anne around. He has proved himself to be a very clever boy, and he is catching up with Luca's English at a very fast rate. He likes to spend his time reading books to Zio Franci, with whom he has proved a concerned and patient companion.
Thank you for bringing these two wonderful boys into our life!
