New Job

Sloane making her way to her fairy house.
Hey Sloanie!
Spinning!
As a fairy!  That's her!
Flynn's (top, violet) and Drew's (bottom, aqua) bed.
Oh, hey, Zhan!  My best friend has come to visit!
Drew talking to his daddy about... diamonds?
What do you eat when you're hungry? Wonderpetal, of course!
Birthday time for Andi!
Those uggs!
Baby 22, Andromeda Xena, as a Young Adult.  She gained the Computer Whiz trait.  Her lifetime wish is Chess Legend.  But not only did she gain that skill, she also got Bookworm!  She reached level 10 of the Nerd group!  That makes her the first in our family to have SIX traits!  She was offered a job in the Video Game Developer career and of course she took it!
Flynn also aged up into a Teen!  He looks much like Rory - they have similar hair! Good news is he's not a replica! (yet... he might turn into one as a YA, like the others did).  Ethan's genes have shown through!  Oh, and he gained the Friendly trait.
We got a whiteboard and Andi, the nerd, kept doing equations on it...
Graduation!
Andromeda, like Bryony, was Valedictorian!  She was also awarded with Most Likely to Take Over the World... in her video games?
Taking the traditional photo!
On the bottom row of the wall!
Okay, so you know how I said I had a new career and I had to wait to get off maternity leave for it to start?  Well, I now run a family daycare!  I thought it would be the perfect job as, well, let's face it, I'm an expert with babies... I do have 26 kids after all.  So, I get to stay home and care for other peoples' babies as well as my own, which shouldn't be hard considering my experience and the fact that I'll be looking after my own at the same time.
Bryony watches the girls.  I have a policy that only I, being the actual babysitter, can tend to the children placed in my care, unless absolutely necessary.  I rely on my other kids to help with my own children though.
I've got some cuties to look after!  These two girls appear to be sisters (they have the same surname) though people with different surnames dropped them off.
Melinda (in hat) and Anna Brinson.
Melinda plays at the block table with Paris and Sloane!
Meanwhile I teach Anna to talk.
And Bryony teaches Paris.
This dude picked one of them up.  He looks young, doesn't he?  Okay, Blanche, stop thinking about your daycare kids' picker-uperers in that way!
This Snowflake Day our gift was for the third bathroom to finally be done, and it was much needed.
Another angle.
This dude is Andromeda's boss.
Comforting poor Teddy.  His twin Jack, my 17th baby, is "on holiday"/missing, like a few of my other children and other people in the town.
Here's who's missing: Rose, Evie, Jack, Magenta Hue (father of Parker), Savannah, Dave Franco (father of Gemma) and other people that we know, Sage Oxendine, Honey Darnell, Sofia Martingale and Juanita Blanco.
The twins grew up!  Sloane as a child.  She gained the Rebellious trait.  She looks so mischievous practising her fairy magic here!
Paris also gained the Rebellious trait (ha, what are the chances).  She is gorgeous. Those eyes are still a mystery though.  But, as we well know, my kids are very mysterious.

Babies 25 & 26

NEW VERSION OF EVENTS
 So, Jagger bumped into a fellow werewolf named Jacquie Miller.
 They woohooed in my shower... with the gnomes watching...
 Here she is up close.  She has a Young Adult daughter named Maisy.
 'Play' fighting.
 They got engaged!  That was fast.  I do fear for him, though, in all truthfulness.  Jacquie is quite a bit older than him.  She's even older than me!!
 He's an investigator... this stakeout doesn't seem too inconspicuous!
 Who needs the handiness skill to repair the dishwasher when your alien daughter can just recombobulate it?
 Jagger tells me he's an Alpha Wolf now.
 He can do terrifying howls!
 Oh look! It's Baby 23, Flynn's, birthday!
 Here he is as a child.  He has my hair colour and Ethan's eyes.  He's starting to really look like me.  I hope he isn't another example of the Parker/Thomas/Liam duplication!  He also earned the Loser trait.
 Since returning from my little 'holiday', my plentiful inventory has been empty!  That means we no longer have a car or any of the awesome stuff I had in there!  Including the pregnancy book, anything I ever harvested and didn't replant or sell or eat and my GENIE LAMP!  Shelley's gone now. I still had two wishes left, too.  So, I got another one.  ALSO, I came back without at job!  I was at level 9 of the Painter career!  Now I've decided to go in a different direction with my career.  I now have a profession, and it will all be revealed soon!  After my maternity leave wears off, that is.  This is my new genie, Eliza Kern, who I also wished for Fortune with. And now we're $100 000 richer!  Which is good because we need a car.
 Here's our new car.  It may be slightly ugly, but it's cool!  And in my colours!
 Oh, labour time!
Which means the first time I get to drive the car is on the way to the hospital. 
 Meet Baby 25, Sloane Arabella Bloom.  She has the Virtuoso and Loves the Cold traits.  She also has Starsprinkle's skin tone.  See those sparkles?  Yep, Starsprinkle's confirmed it - she's a fairy!
 Oh! AND Baby 26!  Meet Paris Olivia Bloom.  She has the Genius and Grumpy traits and my skin tone.  She is not a fairy though.  Fun fact:  Sloane and Paris are only my second set of twin girls, my first being Evie and Everly, Babies 4 and 5 - twenty babies ago! Monet and Effie don't count though, do they, having Rory in their set too?
 It's Sloppy Jalopy central at the intersection outside our house!
 One has my daughter, #15 Gemma, and her uncle James Franco (they live together - Dave is on 'holiday').
 Another has Bertram Bedlington.
 And another one has... no one?
 Yep, it has that annoying paparazzi, Susannah Lindquist.
Gettin' to know my boy Flynn by helping him with his homework. 
 Bryony, who got a job as a Film Extra, is going off to work.  Now, she is my first and only Teen to have or who has ever gotten their licence by learning with me.  What will she choose?  Her crappy little Sloppy Jalopy carpool?
 Or Mum's brand spanking new expensive pink SUV?
 The new car, of course!
 Andromeda restoring her brain power on my bed.
 Bryony got struck by lightning!
 Here's moi. This is my mugshot, recently taken, as I hadn't had one before.
 As I returned from my little adventure without an athletic outfit, swimwear, sleepwear or formalwear, here's my new one! It was so sad to go out and buy new clothes... not.  A different outfit and hairstyle but keeping with the colours!
 It's Spooky Day so the kids get to go trick or treating!  Bryony as a princess, Flynn as a muscle kid, Andi as a cowgirl.
 At the Parrott household... Flynn can see his dad, Ethan!
 My fairy, Sloane, as a toddler.  She has my hair colour as well as my eye colour.  She's adorable!
Here's Paris as a toddler.  She also has my hair and random blueish-grey eyes.  I don't see where she would have gotten them from as my eyes are golden and Starsprinkle's are pink.  To be honest, I'm a tad disappointed neither of them have Starsprinkle's awesome hair.  I only hope I will have grandchildren through them with his hair!
 My clone Bryony has aged up!
 Baby 21, Bryony Elizabeth, as a Young Adult.  She now has the Green Thumb trait and her LTW is Master Magician.
 Speaking of which... she is now in the Magician career and hasn't quite got the hang of it yet.
 A close-up of Sloane.
 And Paris.
 Bryony performing for tips out the front in the middle of the night - well, at least the paparazzi's enjoying it.
 Graduation time! I'm holding Sloane.  Andi with Drew.  Bryony with Paris and Flynn looking precious in his white suit.
 Bryony!  She graduated as Valedictorian!  She did not receive a voted award, being the first of my children to be so.
 Liam's got a new hairstyle?
 Here's Bryony's portrait, beneath #15 Gemma's.  The first in a long line of portraits to feature my new formalwear.
 Oh, I just remembered that I never showed you the triplets' photos!  Here's Monet, Rory and Effie underneath Thomas, Heidi and Liam.  These are, so far, the only photos to feature me pregnant!  You'd think that it would've happened before, with the amount of kids I have, but it hasn't!  I was pregnant with Drew here.
 Parker (#11) invited me to a party.  Here he is.
 Baby 5 Everly was also there.
And Baby 2 Hunter. 
And Penny Sheets!  She's the university mascot who has come every single time we've had someone age up into a Teen, and she was also there when I first moved in when I started the challenge! 
Watching TV with Liam - is he the male version of me? 
 Hugging Ladybug.
 What is this abnormally large plant that is suddenly in my garden?
 That would be my daughter, Bryony, photosynthesising!
 Oh! Birthday time for Drew!
 Here he is as a child.  He also looks like he might be another duplicated, but only time will tell. He gained the Ambitious trait.
 Starsprinkle advised me to get a fairy house for Sloane.  In here she can sleep, change clothes, party and drink pollen - the latter is what she was doing in there at this moment.  Who knew toddlers could do most of those things?
 Flynn's really into painting and he painted this, which he called 'My House'.  Aw.
We put it in his and Drew's room (actually Bryony and Andromeda's room, but Bryony moved out and Andromeda doesn't sleep).
So, uh, apparently Rose turned into a paparazzi?  That's not Jeanna Moffett - that's my first born child, my daughter Rose Clarissa!  What have you done with her, game?!
