Story CAF Part 6/?
It has been a little under a year since you and [love interest] welcomed your multiples into your home and while it's been hectic, you and [love interest] would not have life any other way. Things have been good at work as well. [Love interest] has just sent off their first book - [insert book name] - to the publish and it has been approved and will be coming out for publication very soon. Then on your end, you recently appeared on [roll] on the Food Network, (Give Details!) and it's increased business at [restaurant] by tenfold. Unfortunately, a big wrench has been thrown into your life despite all the good news.....[You/LI is pregnant or your/LI's younger sister/cousin is pregnant].
(If Pregnant/Your LI is pregnant) - You're totally shocked, you thought the two of you were being more careful, after all your multiples aren't even a year old and have another three months before they turn a year old. While you and [love interest] want to have a big family, this seems a little quick in succession after you have had your multiples just under a year ago! While the news is disconcerting, you and [love interest] still feel that you want to have this baby in your life and though it delays for plans you had concerned your career - opening a second location - you don't have as much trepidation about it. You find the thought shocking for a moment because you know that before your life with [love interest] anything that could have delayed your career would have been devastating to your life.
As the pregnancy progresses you and [love interest] find out that you're expecting [Roll]. This pregnancy, while unexpected, is still a gift in your eyes and the eyes of your family. In fact, [insert closest relative] set up a magnificent baby shower and it was a total surprise to both you and [LI]. It makes you feel a lot more at ease knowing how much familial support you and [LI] have at this stage in your life. While it may make you wait longer for your career, you are at so much peace with it, with your new baby. The next three months breeze by and its time for you the multiples birthday party, it has a [Pick Theme]. Everyone plays tons of games - share some if you like - and has a wonderful time, though, [child #3] got into a little trouble - (Explain how they did this.) but everything else ran rather smoothly.
After that, the time came and you and [LI] set up a beautiful nursery for the baby - [Roll]. It looks fantastic and you joke with [LI] that after decorating all these nurseries maybe you missed your true calling as an interior designer. You both laugh as you each know that if you were not working in a kitchen, cooking and baking you would lose your mind. It brings a smile to your face knowing how much [LI] truly does understand you and you [rub your hand against your pregnant belly/lean down and kiss [LI]'s pregnant belly]. You/[LI] remark how compared to your/their previous pregnancies this pregnancy seems to be a little smoother, less morning sickness, late night cravings and back pain.
As the end of the pregnancy draws nearer and nearer, you start to notice [child #1] is acting out more and more, just last night they stole [child #4]'s stuffed [Roll] and shredded it to bits with a pair of safety scissors, thankfully being a parent to [insert # of children] you make sure to have a bin of backups in your closet for their favorite stuffies, after giving [child #4] a new stuffed animal you and [LI] had a stern talking to with them that night and [child #1] seemed apologetic, but just today you received a phone call that they [Roll] while at school and are being suspended for a full week. You drive to the school and pick them up, feeling terribly embarrassed as you load them into the car. However, it does not stop there, when you leave them alone for one second to make lunch, you come back to find [Child #5 or #2] crying and covered in [insert your favorite color] pain with [child #1]'s hands covered in paint as well. You're frazzled, you put [child #1] in timeout, but they seem gleeful.
You're at your wits end so you call [pick one of your parent's] and they suggest maybe instead of just simply admonishing [child #1] you try talking to them more about why they are doing what they're doing at the next instance if there happens to be one - of course there is one. At the end of the night right before bed, they pull on [child #6 or #2 or #3]'s hair and make them cry. You separate the pair and have [LI] comfort [injured child] while you sit [child #1] down and try and talk to them, at first you get nothing, but finally, they break down in tears and hug you, asking you not to be mad and that they just want your attention and are worried that with so many younger siblings you and [LI] will not want them anymore or love them. It breaks your heart. You promise [child #1] that that will never, ever happen that you will love them no matter how many other siblings that they have. You promise them this and make an agreement that once a month you and [LI] will pick a day just to be for the three of you. The first one will be in two weeks, after they are done being punished for their bad behavior and as long as they continue to behave from now on. It goes smoothly and you all end up having your first Mommy, Daddy and [Child #1] Day enjoying your time at [Roll, Describe Day].
Thank goodness that that is put behind you because just one week after that day you/[LI] go into labor a week and a half early! The time finally arrives and your baby comes after a full twenty-three hours of grueling and intense, not to mention painful, labor. (Tell us what happened, how it went, was [love interest] there? Parents? Siblings? Make it interesting!]
As you look at your baby and hold him/her for the first time you feel a tug in your heartstrings. (Roll for Hair and Eye Color). You love him/her so much and surprise or not, you just know this little one was meant to be a part of your family. You name them [See Name Lists] and it fits him/her perfectly.
The ordeal of a near full day laboring has tuckered both you and [LI] out and as you lay together on the hospital bed watching [Child #1] holding your new baby while [Child #2] kisses the baby's head and [Child #3, 4, 5 and or 6] watch on with wide eyes while [LI]'s parents keep watchful eye on their beloved grandchild, the pair of you feel exhausted and end up falling asleep feeling more blissful then you ever have in your entire life watching your beloved children.
OR
(If your/LI's Younger Sister/Cousin is Pregnant) - Recently [roll] had come to both you and [love interest] in a state of a fit. She is pregnant, just shy of two months along, and not only that, but the pregnancy is the product of a one night stand with a guy she barely knows and has no idea how to locate him. She is only sixteen years old and knows she is not mature enough to raise her baby. So, as hard as it is for her to do it, she wants to give up her baby, the thing is though, she wants you and [love interest] to adopt the baby. [Cousin/Sister] is worried to give her baby up to someone she doesn't know and out of every adult relationship that [Cousin/Sister] knows your and [love interest] is the most stable and loving one and she wants that kind of family for her baby. You look to [love interest] and inform [sister/cousin] that you two need to talk and she accepts and leaves, asking you to let her know as soon as you can. The two of you walk, you already have [# of kids] who are six years of age and under, but your finances are stable, very stable as is your relationship with one another, you both want a big family and have always liked the thought of adoption. You go over some more pros and cons - (Description!). You and [LI] spend two weeks debating on what the right choice is, but in the end come to the conclusion that you will adopt [cousin/sister]'s baby. You call her and let her know your choice and she is thrilled.
The three of you sit down and outline an agreement with your lawyer present. In the agreement you and [LI] will be adopting [cousin/sister]'s baby and will be given full parental responsibilities and [cousin/sister] will sign away all rights to her baby, the baby will known that they are adopted when the time is right, but they will not learn that [cousin/sister] is is the biological parent until they are eighteen years of age. [cousin/sister] will not be the one to inform them and their contact will be of the typical familial role. In addition, you and [LI] will pay for all medical bills in regards to the pregnancy. You also include a cause that [cousin/sister] enroll in some form of therapy and or support group in regards to young mothers giving up their babies for adoption and dealing with those emotions and she must be in the program from this point until the end of the full year after the baby's birth at minimum. If there is a fee, you and [LI] will pay for it. As much as you want a healthy baby, you want to ensure [cousin/sister]'s well being in the situation as well. The documents are signed and you cannot wait to see this process through.
As the pregnancy progresses we find out that we're expecting [Roll]. While you hadn't expected any other children since the multiples, you feel that this baby is still a gift in your eyes and the eyes of your family. You and [love interest] are thoroughly excited for the new baby. In fact, you and [LI] set up a magnificent baby shower and while you were worried that [cousin/sister] might be upset or uncomfortable, she seems joyful and truly happy to see that we are excited to be welcoming her baby. Seeing that makes me feel a lot more at ease knowing that [cousin/sister] is doing okay with the thought of the adoption still, you've hears such adoption horror stories and considering that this is also within the family the fear that this could all fall apart is very real, however you and [LI] are doing your best to be optimistic. While it may make you wait longer for your career, you are at so much peace with it, with your new baby. The next three months breeze by and its time for you the multiples birthday party, it has a [Pick Theme]. Everyone plays tons of games - share some if you like - and has a wonderful time, though, [child #3] got into a little trouble - (Explain how they did this.) but everything else ran rather smoothly.

You both laugh as you each know that if you were not working in a kitchen, cooking and baking you would lose your mind. It brings a smile to your face knowing how much [LI] truly does understand you and the pair of you hang up the sonogram picture you received at the last doctor visit of your coming baby.
As the baby's arrival nearer and nearer, you start to notice [child #1] is acting out more and more, just last night they stole [child #4]'s stuffed [Roll] and shredded it to bits with a pair of safety scissors, thankfully being a parent to [insert # of children] you make sure to have a bin of backups in your closet for their favorite stuffies, after giving [child #4] a new stuffed animal you and [LI] had a stern talking to with them that night and [child #1] seemed apologetic, but just today you received a phone call that they [Roll] while at school and are being suspended for a full week.

It goes smoothly and you all end up having your first You, [LI] and [Child #1] Day enjoying your time at [Roll, Describe Day].
Thank goodness that that is put behind you because just one week after that day [cousin/sister] go into labor three weeks early! The baby while a little small, is thankfully very healthy. (Tell us what happened, how it went, was [love interest] there? Parents? Siblings? Make it interesting!]
As you look at your baby and hold him/her for the first time you feel a tug in your heartstrings. (Roll for Hair and Eye Color). You love him/her so much and while unexpected, you just know this little one was meant to be a part of your family. You thank [cousin/sister] profusely for bringing this amazing little being into your life, and you ask them if they have any first name ideas for the baby and they do [cousin/sister] suggests [See Name Lists] and it fits him/her perfectly. You agree to use it and then pick two names in honor of [cousin/sister] for the baby's middle names. [Cousin/Sister] is so thankful and cries tears of joy and the three of you hug one another.
The three of you stay there for a bit as you watch [Child #1] holding your new baby while [Child #2] kisses the baby's head and [Child #3, 4, 5 and or 6] watch on with wide eyes while [LI]'s parents keep watchful eye on their beloved grandchild, the three of you feel so warmed at the sight as the other children accepting the new baby as their sibling and can see how much they truly care for one another.
