Alex and Ryan met their third daughter for the first time couple of days ago. She’s three years old and was put up for adoption when her aunt, who raised her, had a nearly fatal overdose and went to drug addiction therapy. She has been struggling to understand having a new family, but Alex and Ryan are confident she will fit right in eventually. They kept her birth name, which is related to nature, and gave her a new middle name, something used by Shakespeare.
Rory and Islay have been begging for a pet for a while now and Alex and Ryan finally decided, “Why not?!”. After much discussion over what type of pet they would like—Rory wanted a orangutan, Islay wanted a dragon or a zebra—Alex and Ryan decided to go for an Irish sheepdog puppy. Rory and Islay eventually picked out a name that is either a word characteristic they feel the dog has or a type of food they enjoy. Alex and Ryan moderated the choice.

It’s a girl! Alex is delighted to have a little sister, but is wondering where the baby came from.

Round 1: Gaia and Siobhan met their baby boy and brought him home just days ago. They decided to give him an entirely new name as his birthname, a Swahili name, was too hard for many Americans to pronounce. He has a cute, short first name and a longer, more elaborate, middle.Round 2: Siobhan has always wanted to experience pregnancy, so she and Gaia came to the decision that they would try to conceive via sperm donor. Siobhan is now expecting a little girl. They have already decided on an unusual first name that seems vintage, but they are having trouble deciding on the middle name. They would like it to be unisex or related to nature.Round 3: Siobhan and Gaia decided to adopt again. While Siobhan didn’t dislike pregnancy, she wasn’t altogether keen to do it again and Gaia had no interests either so adoption was the logical option. They took their two children on vacation in Mexico for a week before they picked up their newborn daughter there. They decided to give the little girl an unusual nature name for her first name and they kept her birthname, a Spanish name, in the middle name slot.

They are considering whether or not to give her a nickname, you choose the outcome of their decision.

After the twins were born, James and Maxie decided that any more kids would put too much strain on Max’s body. This wasn’t the end of the matter though, because Max began again to suggest adopting a set of local siblings in need of a home. James has never been fond of the idea, and reasoned that doing so would bring up the amount of children to five or more, which both agreed originally would be too hard to handle. In the end they decided to adopt, but only one child, a little two year old. Phoenix chose her first name, also the name of a constellation, and the twins chose a name popular in Britain for the middle name.
