Goodbye Baby# 1 ♥& pregnancy?



Hi guys, sorry, I can't talk for too long right now... I'm late for work. I slept in... I couldn't sleep last night because of what Harvey told me. Every last word he said was jumping around in my brain, making it terribly hard for me to sleep. 


Carl and Peyton played outside until the bus came.. The bus was 1h 30 minutes late that day.. So they were late for school. NOT GOOD. I'll be phoning the bus company to tell them to please pick up my kids faster... It's affecting their marks. And attendance. 


I think Kaile's gonna be a great father when he grows up, all 3 of the twins were hovering around him once they -FINALLY- got to school. I'm starting to notice that Kaile's a bit too skinny, you can see it in his legs. (LOOK.)


After work, I was told to go to the Military Training place to go interview the commander like I did while I was pregnant with Harvey... Seems like such a long time ago. Now my baby's all grown up and going to propose soon! 


I had to wipe the tears out of my eyes before I went into the place. I didn't want to get screamed at for being 'too weak' haha.

~Back At Home~


Kaile and Harvey did their homework together, this will probably be the last time they do this.... Not.
Sorry, I'm just overreacting. They have 3 more days. Seems so soon.
Too soon.


After homework, Harvey called Darlene and invited her over.


She stayed over for the night, they didn't sleep in the same bed though thank god. That'd be so weird. 


After all the kids were sleeping, I worked on my article I haven't worked on since like, 2 months?

~ Next Morning ~


The next morning, I pulled Peyton into the room and asked her if she wanted to go get her hair done with Poupurri& I in celebration for Harvey's surprise, Peyton agreed but didn't feel like dying her hair. And I wouldn't blame her. She has the same hair colour as me, a very light blonde with a hint of light brown. 


I also 'spilled the beans' on a surprise that I had for Harvey's ageing up. Peyton was so excited.
...

The kids all went to school shortly after.


Here's the surprise! While everyone was at school, I stayed at home with some friends of mine (builders).
We built a 2-Door Garage. Inside, it has 2 cars. One's mine. And one's for Harvey; his surprise. 


(My Car)


(Harvey's Car)


After work, I went to the nearby pool for a little swim.


Very refreshing. I also made alot of new friends.. Like the one I'm doing a holding-my-breath contest with. 


As I promised, the girls& I went to get our hair done. Poupurri bumped into Peyton by accident and Peyton started freaking out at Poupurri for scaring her. She thought some ghost attacked her. 


We were kicked out of the Salon as soon as we got there; turns out the owner doesn't like kids. 
HAHAHAH, well guess what, I've got 95 more to go, & i'll bring every single one here! 
...


Once everyone was home, they all did their homework. 


...and Harvey called Darlene over. But there was no answer, so she didn't come that night. 


The kids went upstairs and played with some of the new toys I'd bought. 
_______________________________________________________________________________

~ Next Morning ~


I went for a swing on the swing set I had bought when I moved here. Nobody seems to use it; except for me. 


Some random guy walked onto my property.. Joking. 
I met him at the Salon when I went with the girls, I loveloveLOVE his hair. His name is VJ Alvi by the way.  
I told VJ about my baby challenge and asked if he'd like to be the father. He said some bad jokes about parenting... Not very nice ones at that. But whatever.. We went upstairs and Woohoo'd. 


This is a painting that Kaile did. He wants to be an artist when he grows up a little bit more. He's been taking alot of painting classes and well, he's been painting alot. 


After Woohoo-ing, VJ just disappeared. I didn't even see him leave.. Awkward. 

The rest of the day was very relaxing, I took a nice long nap, Kaile made lunch, and dinner that night. 
I woke up to three kids jumping all over me.
"MOM MOM MOM MOM," All three chanted over and over again.
"...What?"
"It's time for Harvey to age up!" 
I ripped the blankets off of me and sent the three kids flying off the bed.
"Oh gosh, has he bought a cake yet!?"
Confused about how he got on the ground, Carl replied, "Yep, Kaile bought a cake an hour ago.."
I pushed back my hair with my hands and eventually got up.
Both girls took my left hand, while Carl held onto the right one, and we all went downstairs.


Darlene was first up, she spent a little while making a wish.


And then she finally aged up into a beautiful young adult... Not to be a creeper, but we have to same pants. 


And finally was my baby boy Harvey. He didn't hesitate when blowing out the candles, I don't even think he made a wish.. 


Now that they're both adults, it was time. 
Time for Harvey to propose. He got down on one knee and pulled out a box. 
Darlene was confused at first, but then her eyes widened as she realised what it was. 
Harvey looked up at Darlene and smiled as he opened the little box, "I love you, will you marry me?"
She nodded yes, she tried speaking, but I guess she was too happy to speak. She was crying and just jumping up and down. 


He put the ring on her, and then gave her a big hug. Then the two went upstairs to get some sleep. 


I let the twins stay up a little longer.. They watched something on the cooking channel. 


But for me, I might go to bed soon. I'm not feeling too well, my tummy hur-
I was interrupted by some foul taste in my mouth.
Sickness.
Pregnancy?
Yup.


I ran to the bathroom, and threw up. Great. 


Okay guys, I'm gonna nibble on some fruits to calm my stomach down. 
*nibble nibble nibble*
Bye. *yawns*

Harvey's Big Suprise; &Aging Up

The words go for the picture above guys~ 
Just to let all of you confused people know. 
Sorry I haven't been posting in a while.. I have alot of projects that are due soon :$ 


_______________________________________________________________________________________



Hi guys, it's been a while since you've been able to spy on my life ;)
Since the last time you saw me, not much has happened. Just the regular; school for kids.. work.
Actually, I got a haircut as you can tell from the picture above.. I also got some more lowlights. 
I'm not totally used to my hair yet, it's always in my way and the kids keep chewing on it.


Kaile's been playing in the playroom alot lately. After he gets home from school, he'll do his homework, then run right upstairs and play with the space ship. He says he wants to be a astronaut when he grows up.... He wants to meet a cow on the moon.... (sigh) Oh well.. He's still a kid. 


Peyton's been a little fussy when it comes to bedtime. Poupurri& Carl go to bed just fine, but with Peyton, it's a whole other story I'd rather not tell. Anyways, after I had just put Peyton down to bed I went downstairs to find that Kaile had aged up without me. 


(Kaile aged up; teenager)


Harvey and Kaile spent some time together, being men and all that stuff. They both tried out the exercise machines, Kaile doesn't like them very much... He finds them boring. And Harvey on the other hand..... They don't like him, he came to me later with a giant scrape on his knee.. 


I told him I'd teach him how to workout.. Which is kind of a weird... Not to be sexist... I just figured the guys should know more about weights and stuff... Guess not. 


I heard Pourpurri screaming from upstairs, so I cut mine& Harvey's "training session" short. Sorry baby! 
It was time for Poupurri to age up, before her twins. This is a picture Harvey got of Her& I blowing out the candles. 


The next day, Harvey called me (after his part-time job) to tell me that some girl asked him out to dinner. I was a little cautious because I don't know the girl, but it seemed like he really likes her.. So I agreed, he was really happy. 


Back at home, I figured that it wouldn't be fair to not let Peyton& Carl age up, so I bought them both a cake as well.... (so much money.... ughhh)
Carl was next, I could feel him shaking in my arms as I held him close; but not too close, to the flame. He was shaking because of nervousness but of excitement. 

Unfortunetly, I couldn't get a picture of Peyton... she wouldn't let me take her picture.. Sorry guys. Look in my Kessler Kids tab to see what she looks like. 


Later that morning, I had work. It's been a little while.... Well, not really. Only like, 3 days. 


My maid got this picture of Kaile& Poupurri walking to the bus.. Kaile told her he'd teach her "the ropes" of school. 


Here's a picture of them sitting together on the bus. 


After work, I was checking Kaile and Harvey's phone bills, and he keeps calling this number.
- 1.613.329.9427
I suspect it was the person he had called earlier. Anyways, Harvey had totally missed work that day, AND he was late at getting home. I should start making a time limit of being outside. 
I called him, "Harvey, it's 10pm. Where are you!?"
"Sorry Mom, I've just been...... a little busy. I'll be home in 10 minutes."
"Good. From now on your curfew is 9pm at the latest. On weekends, it's 10:30pm."
Harvey sighed, "Yes Mom...... Whatever."
*click*
Harvey hungup on me... how rude. 


Poupurri came up to me... Seems like she was having some troubles with her english work. So I sat down with her and helped her. 


After Harvey came home, I made him clean the entire house as punishment. He groaned in disbelief. I feel powerful. MWAHAHA.
While Kaile took care of the kids& Harvey cleaned, I went out to Central Park.. so find the next candidate for my baby challenge. I met someone, but he was married...... So I just went home. 


I wasn't happy with everyone's behaviour, so we had a family discussion, that is, everyone but Poupurri... Seems like she caught a cold, she's now sleeping upstairs. Poor baby. 
Harvey turns to me, moves the hair away from my ear, and tells me that he has a girlfriend. 
I was shocked, I was shocked x2 when I saw her at the front door 10 minutes later. 


Watching her come in the front door was so weird... It must be weird for my kids to see me bring men from my baby challenge in... So I guess I can relate a little. I tried not to look too sad... Didn't work. 


She came right over and introduced herself.
"Ahh, hello, you're Ms. Kessler? I'm Darlene Bunch."
"Yup................" I gave her an awkward stare.
"uh..... anyways Darlene, it's nice to meet you, sorry I'm being so awkward.. This is very strange for me." 
She started laughing at my awkwardness. Turns out she was nervous just like me before she came in the door. We shared alot of laughes and we have alot of the same interest. She's actually such a nice person. I would love for her to join the family in the future......... hopefully. 


I left the two alone for some boyfriend-girlfriend time. I got all the kids into their beds so they wouldn't see... 
It turns out Harvey and Darlene have an ageing ceremony planned out. On the 22nd of April, they'll both be ageing into young adults, and when that happens they're going to move in together in a nice house a couple towns away from here. 
It's the 15th of April now, so only 7 more days... Or a week. I only have such a limited amount of time left with my first-born. 

________________________________________________________________________________

This is a secret so don't tell. Hush hush.

After Darlene left, Harvey came over to me, and pulled this little box out of his pocket. 
He opened it up and showed it to me. It was a beautiful ring.
I just about fainted. He closed it, put it back in his pocket, and explained.

"Mom, I see that you get along with Darlene very well, and so do I."
...
"Mom. We're going to age up here, at home. But I have a surprise for Darlene."
...
"I'm going to propose to her."

I wiped tears that were now flowing out of my eyes like a waterfall. I was so happy for Harvey. He's practically all grown up.
I looked up and smiled at him, "Harvey...." *moment of silence* "She's a wonderful girl... And....  think it's a great idea that you're doing that. I'm so happy for you!"

I threw my arms around him and gave him a hug I hadn't given to him since I first held him.
He hugged me back, but then told me something I probably won't ever forget.

"Mom?"
"Yes Harvey?"
"Darlene is....... Ethan's daughter."

My jaw dropped. 

Side Note:
Ethan is the father of baby #2 Kaile Kessler.
