Gen 3- Chapter 7

Giana loves dressing up. She acts like a princess. She is so cute when she walks around waving at the pretend crowd.

I am loving fatherhood. I read to Giana a lot at bedtime. She really likes the time we share together, and so do I.

Photobucket

I read to her in my bed, and when the story is done she goes straight to her bed. Such a good little girl!

Photobucket

One night, while laying in bed...

"I want another baby."
"Now?"
"Yes, I am really enjoying Giana, and I wish we could have 2 babies total."
"I suppose it wouldn't hurt to have one more..."

...and we got right to it.

It wasn't long before Venessa was pregnant again. When she told me, I was very excited! I wanted another girl, and Venessa wanted a boy.

Photobucket

Giana was becoming more interested in improving her logic skill, afterall she is a Genius. She likes to search the galaxy at every chance she gets.

Photobucket

We like to bond over a game of chess, too.

Photobucket

Giana is so excited o become a big sister!

Photobucket

After a long and stressful pregnancy, Venessa finally went into labor.

Photobucket

Why Venessa walked outside, I will never understand, but she had Giada out there. Giada is Neurotic and Friendly.

Photobucket

Then there was Gia. She is Neurotic and Athletic.

Photobucket

And last but not least, Gabriella. She is Artistic and a Heavy Sleeper.

Photobucket

Yeeeaaahhh. Triplets. I just wanted one more.

Photobucket

They are somewhat easy kids though. They cry around the same time, but it does take both me and Venessa to care for them. 3 crying babies and only 2 adults can be tough.

Photobucket

Venessa and I take turns sleeping in a sleeping bag in the nursery, which makes caring for them a bit easier.

Photobucket

For reasons unknown, I wanted another child. Venessa calls it a moment of insanity. The babies were not even toddlers yet, but I wanted a boy.

Photobucket

So we tried one more time.

The next day, the triplets turned into toddlers.

Gia:

Giada:

Gabriella:

Photobucket

Family meals have become almost non existant, as we feed the triplets in high chairs only when nothing else is going on. If we are really busy, everyone gets a bottle on the floor.

Photobucket

The house is really taking a hit as well. Venessa never has a chance to clean anymore, but we refuse to hire a maid at this point. With so many children, we just don't have the funds to hire a maid.

Photobucket

Oh yeah, Venessa is pregnant again.

We are really taking turns teaching all the toddlers their skills. We are doing the best we can, but it is so tiring!

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

We still make time for Giana. We still have our bedtime story bonding time.

Photobucket

Giana pretty much lives on cereal and plasma juice. Since Venessa and I are so busy, we never have time to cook meals for the poor kid.

Photobucket

We have been so busy caring for the triplets that Venessa's pregnancy flew by. She went into labor in the bathroom.

Photobucket

Gardenia was born quickly. She has the Clumsy and Athletic traits.

Photobucket

And Galiena followed shortly after, born with the Heavy Sleeper and Insane traits.

Photobucket

Twins. We should have known that we couldn't just have one more....


**I started randomly generating traits for the children to mix things up and add some strategy to the game. I That explains the insane and neurotic traits that the children are ending up with.**
