The Newest Pop Sensation Baby 55

"I don't know what to wish for, Jerome wants one thing, while Cindy wants another. Oh! I know!" Elizabeth took a big breath and stopped contemplating with her many "friends" And blew out the candles. Anna looked at her sister with wonder, then blew out her candles.
They did age up into beautiful, wondrous, teens.
I brought Belle up to her cake.
And then Cinderella, I blew their candles out, and they both aged into bubbly toddlers.
Belle, actually has brown hair, and Ella has the blondest hair you ever did see, well not really, but it's all the same.
I decided we'd better get an early start with skills. I took Belle and sat her down to teach her how to walk.
Matt decided to love on Elephant. He had been neglectful for a while since he got his latest promotion, and now with a four day vacation he had all the time in the world to cuddle it up.
Belle quickly picked up walking, while Ella was barely grasping the fact that two legs can hold up her tiny body.
Anna was trying her voice on the newly purchased karaoke machine. She wasn't too bad.
Well, Matt on the other hand, well, he has quite the, voice?
"And I-e-I WILL ALWAYYYYYSSSSS LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!" He belted out.
"My ears!" Elizabeth screamed.

I on the other hand was getting quite into it, and honestly my voice wasn't the worst, and neither was Matt's. We made a great duo.
"I'd like to dedicate this number to you." Matt said, with a sweet smile.
Matt's long weekend ended with a bang, and he was back at work. I took the older girls to the new arcade, after hours of begging, and to my surprise I spotted a possible father.
I went up to him.
"Hello! I'm Caitlin Murray, and you are?"
"I, am, *Insert horribly dramatic pause here* Moon comma Shine. You can call me Moonshine miss. I AM The Newest Pop Sensation."
"That's amazing. Listen, I'm taking part in a baby challenge, would you like to be a father, no strings attached? It'll boost your popularity!" I said with a wink.
"Hmm. You drive a hard bargain, lead the way."
Here? Now? I led him into a photo booth, it would offer some privacy right?
When we were done I let Moon Shine take the pictures, he was quite shocked and ripped them up right away.
What happens at the arcade, stays at the arcade.
When I was done with my little endeavour I hung out with the girls.
I wasn't the greatest at Pool, and Anna kept poking herself with the pool stick in the eye, and Elizabeth thought the balls were going to eat her. So, pool wasn't exactly our game.
Miniature bowling however, was definitely our thing. In the first ten minutes Elizabeth scored 90,000 points, Anna 120,000, and I had about 98,000 points.
I ran out of the arcade as quick as I could, seeing as though there was no bathroom located in there, and I threw up. Pregnancy signs were showing faster and faster these days.
Despite my upset stomach I decided to brave the one ride they had there, and boy did I mean brave it. I decided high mode wouldn't be too bad, and it was! It was extremely fun though, I'd have to admit.
Belle and Ella loved to play in the swings, so while I was busy doing work around the house, or they were being fussy I just put them in the swings, it was always an instant success.
The day after the arcade outing I could feel the kick on my tummy. I was pregnant!
With no kids to play with Jumangi he enjoyed his own personal time by sprawling out on the floor. He also took up the beds in the kids rooms. Although he did love the children, I think he liked solitude more.
Elizabeth has officially fallen off the Sane Train. Today when she got home from school she was talking nonsense, and her alternate personalities were taking goes at talking to me. I couldn't quite catch up, and when I asked her to slow down she started talking about her pet radish Perry.....
"I put mah hands up they is playing my song the butterflies fly away!" She screamed.
"Elizabeth, take a chill pill!" I said, grabbing her arms and placing them at her sides. She looked at me like I was insane for a moment, then returned to a state that I could almost call normal. 
I let her feel my bump, after she asked fourteen times, and I was amazed by how gentle she was. Okay, maybe she wasn't entirely insane.
"Ella, Oh no! It's the CLAW!!!" I bellowed.
"Oh no!" Ella shrieked.
I let my hand fall onto her small stomach and I started to tickle her. She cried out in shear delight.
"Oh no!" I said, "It got you!"
"Ahh!" Ella said in between giggles.
"Who's a good kitty? Jumangi is!" I said, picking up my lazy little cat. For how much work has been put in he is a pretty awesome cat. He doesn't destroy furniture, and although a few of the kids have taught him how to hunt he doesn't really bring any dead animals around, except for that golden finch, but I think it was alive because it disappeared. Jumangi meowed in reply, and I set him back on the ground.
I wanted to play with Elephant. Matthew wasn't home, and there wasn't exactly a rule on not being able to play with him, even if there was it wouldn't apply to me. Elephant hadn't bit a single soul, one of the few namely reasons I've tolerated him so far, plus Matt takes care of all of his care, so it isn't really a hassle. I took Elephant out of his cage and started to pet him like I've seen Anna and Matt do hundreds of times, and do you know what he did? He bit my finger! I quickly dropped him in his cage, and went to do other things.
Elephant, my patience is wearing thin with you.
The girls were going to go to prom! Even though neither one of them had dates, they wanted to go for the heck of it. Elizabeth, who was "courting" another personality thought it would be fun to go, especially since this was their last Friday being teens. Anna just wanted to go because she could see all of her friends at school.
When Matthew got home I challenged him to a chess match.
"Very clever young one." He said, as I moved one of my knights.
"So I'm clever and young?" I laughed.
"Well.. About that." He joked.
"So does that make you the wise and old?" I gestured.
"Indeed young one, I am. Hmmm.. Yes."
"Yoda?" I asked.
"Correct, you are." He mused.
Day three was getting a little bit hectic, birthdays were around the corner, the toddlers were out of fun things to play with, and quite frankly the older girls were just getting on my nerves, but the baby had to come before birthdays, for what reasons, they will forever stay unknown.
Thankfully I went into labor around noon, I decided to stop hiding, I was already a public celebrity after the whole mother thing, quite frankly I was trying to forget that too, but hey! Matt took me to the hospital, and I had my first birth there.
"Welcome to the world little Peeta, Welcome to the world."
Baby 55.
