Alyssa was the family princess. Alicia sometimes would just in awe of how beautiful she was.
Meanwhile, Thomas is having a hard time at work.
My that's a big nose you have, Sawyer.
I think Alyssa passed her demon ways on to her brother.
"Relax Pierce. I'm right here"
"Who's my good boy?"
Trace...I love you
Trace spent a lot of his time playing chess. He liked to challenge himself.
Now that there was some peace, Alicia got to teach Pierce some skills.
With his parents busy, Trace took care of his little sister.
"Here you go Alyssa"
While Thomas was outside working on his car, his elder birthday snuck up on him.
FINALLY
I feel ya girl
Did the Phams teach you guys how to break everything because it sure seems like it.
Ah...silence.
Alicia couldn't enjoy this night though. She was called into work to help deal with an emergency.
It was early the next morning when one of her co workers got suddenly nauseous.
"Are you ok, Dino?"
"Ugh. I don't think so"
"Hmm. Let's see..."
Alicia apparently thought a good kick to the shins would work
Thomas loved his little girl. She was the apple of his eye.
With Mommy away, Thomas got to teaching Alyssa her skills. She wasn't too sure about it.
Pierce....your little game is getting taxing.
Alicia got home to immediately take a nap. What an exhausting day!
Sawyer seems perfectly fine playing by himself. He never seemed to be all that lonely and in this house, Alicia would have been surprised if he was.
"Can you say 'Rose'?"
"Lose!"
"Not quite, baby"
Thomas is a quite famous doctor around town. It's no surprise a paparazzi showed up at the house.
Alicia didn't like them showing up where her children were. She went outside to give her a piece of her mind.
"What are you doing here!? Get lost you hussy!"
She left soon after that. Mission accomplished.
Trace is such a good boy. Thankyou for cleaning!
The twins are trying to walk. Good thing mom and dad are there.
Trace, meanwhile, decided to go for a swim.
"You did it, baby girl!"
"Pierce! How long have you been in there? Let's get you out"
"You're a good little musician, Sawyer. I'll be your audience ok?"
Alicia is barely lasting the night.
I think you're confused, Pierce.
Where was Alyssa? She was hanging out with Trace. He could play chess and look after his baby sister.
Sigh.
Thomas may have been an old man but he was definitely ok with Alicia's need for another baby.
"Oh Thomas~"
They tried for a baby...
and tried...
and tried...
and tried but nothing seemed to come of it.
Alicia wondered if there was something wrong with them. Were they too old? She didn't know what to do.
"I hear you want to be a doctor, Trace. It runs in the family you know."
"That's cool mom. I want to be like you and Dad"
Pierce has his birthday that morning. Alicia was so proud (and happy that he wouldn't be screaming at her anymore)
He grew into the friendly trait and his nose.
Alicia and Thomas had a chat. They really wanted another baby. He suggested they take a trip to the fertility clinic to see what was up. Alicia decided she'd go after work since she had different hours then he did.
Thomas has been falling behind in his work. He definitely didn't want to be fired.
Pierce got a dollhouse for his birthday. He was really excited!
I don't know how any kid could be interested in the news but Pierce sure was.
