Our last shot for this update. I thought it was cute how Kelly asked Orchid for attention and it looks like Orchid is saying "What do you want?" And Royal looking on was cute, too.
Party shot. Royal and Cobalt boogie while Green watches and Orchid and Forest talk about egg recipes.
And Kelly becomes a toddler, in Spring's hand-me-down dress!
Let the synchronous noisemaker waving begin! They invited a bunch of people for the event, from left to right: Pine, Great-Uncle Royal, Uncle Cobalt, Green, Orchid, Forest, Lola, and Erin (Loner now, used to be Singles). And Kristen is around somewhere.
Spring asks her dad if she can be the one to take Kelly to the cake she made and her dad says that would be great. (You can tell in this shot that Spring got her mom's nose, obviously.)
When they go to get the baby for her cake time, Green and Lola, inspired by the very pregnant guest Kristen Smith, start thinking about maybe trying to have another one.
Pine gives his sister a birthday zirbert!
It's time for Kelly's birthday! Spring mixes up the Legasea family cake recipe that she got from her dad. (I thought she was too cute with that big spoon!)
When Lola goes to bed that night, she thinks about Green and how she doesn't have to be afraid anymore about her sister taking him away.
And when Kelly wakes up hungry, Lola asks Chloe to feed her, which really means a lot to her, especially since Chloe found out she can't have any more children.
Chloe even gets initiated into the family diving contest!
A little while later, Chloe comes up to see the baby (now sleeping) and to thank Spring for helping her and Lola make up. They realize that their bond as sisters is too close to let Green mess that up. Chloe tells Lola that she won't have anything more to do with Green and that she wants to be free to see other guys anyway. It will take a while, but things will be fine with them again.
Spring is keeping the baby occupied and quiet, so the reconciliation can take place and the sisters have a chance to talk.
When Pine sees what's happening, he gets off the phone quickly, grabs his own sandwich and asks his mom really nicely if she'll sit and eat with him. She can't say no, and she and Chloe almost burst into tears when they see each other, they miss each other so much.
Spring makes some sandwiches for lunch, hoping to get Lola and Chloe to eat together, but Lola eats hers quickly and gets up and leaves the room before Chloe even sits down.
"Aunt Chloe, you are SOOOO funny!"
Spring has decided to invite her aunt Chloe over and to her surprise, she agrees!
The guys pitch in and help with baby Kelly. Here, Pine, who wants to be a family man some day, practices by cuddling and singing to his sister. His mom obviously missed the money trees while she was away!
Spring is also happy to have her mom back. Now she's not the only girl in the house! Now there are TWO more, her mom and the baby!
Here he is, even more handsome after a change into his new clothes!
Our handsome guy!
He blows out the candles and becomes an adult! His dad, brother, sister, and a friend from school are there to witness the event. Also attending is his mom, Lola, who just got back home with the baby from the hospital! And that's the only thing Forest really wanted for his birthday. He was thrilled, although he's making his mom take it easy and sit down.
After her nap, the guys wake her up for Forest's cake time! She always has such a cute expression looking at birthday cakes.
The next day, she joins Forest in a diving contest on his birthday.
