Baby 41 and Our First Winterfest

 My handsome grandson, Zackery.  He is Archie's son.
 Our first Harvest Fest!  My whole family was there.  Here with four of my sons: Owen, Finn, Rhys and Archie.  Archie and Owen are now elders!
 Well, who is this young lady?? 
 It's Scarlett!  She's now a teen!  She gained the Perfectionist trait to go with Loves the Outdoors, and she has the Angling Ace aspiration!  I believe I've only ever had one other child with that aspiration and that was my seventh baby and fifth daughter, Hadley!
 Yet another barbeque fire for the Westbrooks!
 When you're sitting on your kid's bed and eating a hot dog in labour.
 Bathroom birth!
 Meet Harry Lewis!  He was named after both the greatest boy wizard (Harry Potter, of course), as he was born on Harry's birthday, July 31st!  And his middle name is his dad's name.
 I'm not sure if Ottilie is appalled by walking in on me on the toilet or by her new little brother (it was both).
 One of my kids invited me out, and the rest soon followed!  Here we can see Melody, Owen and Archie, with me on the piano!
 Well, it was now winter!  I found a community ice skating rink whilst out and about and decided to give it a try!  For someone with maxed fitness skill, I was a little unsteady.
 Ottilie wanted to hug Reilly, but he was in a mood!  He rejected her, which was sad.
 Hey, look who Finn is holding!  It's a toddlerised Harry!
 Looks like it's Reilly's birthday!  Neither of us look happy though...
 My number 40, Reilly Bray, as a child!  He gained the Genius trait and has the Whiz Kid aspiration.  He looks like another of my clone sons, with no discernible features of Brant there!
 And here is little Harry as a toddler!  He has the Silly trait.  He looks set to be yet another Clone Son™. 
Winterfest Eve means it's time for some family bonding time, by decorating the tree!
 Winterfest morning, the kids all gathered around the tree.
 Scarlett was excited!
 Finn was giving mischievous looks.
 Mama cooking up a storm.
 More mischievous looks from Finn.
 Family time!  Here we have Rhys (Baby 32), Archie (Baby 30), Scarlett (Baby 38), River (Baby 35), Melina (daughter of Baby 27, Benjamin), and me!  Owen, Baby 31 and twin to Archie, had just passed away, so we were sad but merry at the same time.
 That night Father Winter rocked up!
 Reilly was happy to get a present from him.
 Harry was cute as he got his.
 Melody and Finn doing a secret alien handshake!  They are both half-aliens, as are River and Hugo. (Melody, River and Hugo share a dad, Finn's dad also happened to be an alien!).
 Photo with Rhysy boy!
 Well Father Winter thought it would be an excellent idea to get Reilly an experimenting station, but on his first go using it, this happened!
 But Finn was quick to extinguish the fire!
 As was his girlfriend, Elsa.
 Elsa and Finn then exchanged promise rings!  Things were getting serious.
 Well, this handsome gentleman is Ryan Bastinac, another footballer.
 We got cracking on Baby 42, whilst Reilly awkwardly stood there!
 Look who's pregnant!  And in a cute rainy outfit.
 It's new year's eve!  Everyone gathered around the TV for the countdown.  Here we can see (L to R): River, Melody, Cameron, Archie, Me, Rhys, Reilly, Ottilie, Scarlett, Finn, Hugo and Zackery (Archie's son).
Hugs then ensued all around.
 Scarlett and Zackery hugged.  He really looks quite a bit like his uncle, Remy, my 22nd baby.
I hugged my current eldest baby, Archie.  I knew it was his time any moment now, since his twin had passed away days earlier.
