First Outings

As promised, I had Parkin take the boys sans Asparagus on their first public outing. It was time. Unfortunately the oldest of the Bloom boys was stinky and really really tired..another time for him I guess.

So I chose the park, as it’s a pretty elementary public place with lots of things to do and different people to meet. Parkin dropped them off and went on to work.

And this is what they did..for hours and hours. I wanted to scream! They stood in a group on the grass and did nothing. Notice the freaking sun setting?

Even when Nick Alto up and died in the restroom (what was Morgana Wolff doing in there with him??), none of my boys ran to see the Grim Reaper or even mourned the dude!

But then, in the dark of night…

Ari broke away and found the swingset! Yahoo! He swung his little heart out until Daddy came back for them. It was then that I decided Parkin should assist Aki in his wish of visiting the art gallery and Ari decided to follow along.

Aki: Impressive, impressive but I don't like how I'm the only one in here..

Afton: I can pwoop all by myself!

I think it was early the next morning when a pajamafied Aloysius approached an equally pajamafied Blair which came as an absolute shock to me.

Aloysius: Hi Mom, I'm your son Aloysius. Ya know, the one you stuck in the high chair 24/7? Well I just wanted to say that I'm really a good guy, no trouble...and I look the most like you if that accounts for anything? K bye!

Later that day, I fulfilled Parkin’s wish of throwing a party. He probably didn’t appreciate it though when I invited three teenage girls instead of any of his friends. Ah well, these boys need some interaction with the opposite sex.

Bambi and Asparagus seemed to be hitting it off..

But then again, maybe not? The Ursine girl is laughing at Asparagus…I do not like you Ursine girl. See?! I even forgot your name. Ha.

At the end of the part, she makes a mad dash out of Aloysius’s room. What in the world were those two doing in there? I don’t think I was paying any attention..darn it. I still don’t like you Ursine girl!

Blair: You're being awfully mean to that girl.

Yes, she doesn’t seem like a very nice girl, okay Blair? Do you really want your sons associating with her?  Oh, look at you! I’ve never seen you help out with xylophone skilling, it’s cute! Please, continue on.

And then in the blink of an eye, the youngest set of twins turned all sparkly and turned into muscle-y teenage boys.

Aki

Aki definitely looks like he has rock-star potential, so he received the proper virtuoso trait and a birthday gift of a guitar which has been placed in his backpack. Another was set in the living room just in case anyone else wants to give it a shot.

Ari

Ari’s eyes didn’t agree with contacts so he had to keep his glasses. I think he looks rather bookish but tough, no? He looks older than he actually is which is weird. His new trait was insane. I know…I totally messed up with him and rolled his traits when he was born and was planning on giving him the insane trait during the transition to childhood…but he didn’t accomplish everything as a toddler so he had the party animal trait locked in then. Yeah. But he’s insane now!

And one of the first things that a hormonal, teenaged Aki does the next morning…

Like father like son, eh?

They all went off to high school and one of them brought the lovely Bambi home! I have plans for her if you couldn’t tell.

Asparagus: Mother, don't be upset..but this is me mocking your intelligence.

He’s going rogue again. Aloysius did something naughty as well:

Aloysius: Oh no!

That’s right dear, I caught you. Now tell me why you’re digging in the trash?

Parkin fulfilled his lifetime wish of raising 5 babies to teenagers!! And with that came a shiny new reward.

Parkin: Work da**it.

Hmmm, no need for cursing Mr. Bloom. But it looks as though he was successful in doing something to Avery because look at this:

Avery never cleans! He asks his Mom to clean, remember? Haha. Maybe he just decided it was time to start sucking up to me again. Guess what special day today is??

Afton: Celly phone fo my birfday Daddy?

Would you look at that, cute little Afton is asking for a cell phone for her birthday. And that happens to be today! Are you going to be able to handle a girl, Parkin?

He says yes and before he brings Afton to her cake, he needs to make a quick trip to the Dillons household where Aloysius is visiting Bambi after school.

With Aloysius cured of his stink and his tiredness, Parkin returns home.

Parkin: He is SO sucking up.

Oh my AH! Avery is working on his painting! Awesome! Time for sparklies!

The blocky face isn’t that attractive on little girls but she’s still cute, and now she’s officially friendly! Yay!

Aki: I'm making little sister some macaroni...

I don’t like that look at all Aki! You better be nice to your little sister. I mean it.
