Don't judge a book by it's cover- babies 5 and 6
Triplets were hard, because well, while she was snuggling Rachelle, she had to keep an eye on the boys.
Leiah had to keep an eye on the boys, because they were usually screaming their little heads off.
The only thing that kept them truly quiet, was food. Even that didn't last long.
Leiah had learned to nap when the triplets were napping, she also learned to not take sleep for granted. It seemed like each baby needed something at a different time.
After Leiah's nap, it was time to celebrate Cory's birthday. Happy Birthday Cory!
Once Cory had grown up into a teen, Leiah tried to make it upstairs for another nap, but passed out just before she got to her bed.
Cory was a great big brother, and loved to help Leiah whenever she was napping or drinking a cup of coffee.
Coffee was the only thing that kept her awake sometimes.
Finally, it was time for the triplet's birthdays! Here is little Rauleigh as a toddler.
Here is little Raurk....
Awww, things like this make it all worthwhile for Leiah.
....And here is Rachelle as a toddler! She definitely was a daddy's girl, and looked just like him too! She also loved the color pink. Also unlike her brothers, she wouldn't go anywhere without her binky, whereas her brothers never wanted to even touch a binky.
She was so low-key. Where as her brothers were high-maintenance. Rachelle was almost always happy.
While Raurk and Rachelle slept, Leiah taught Rauleigh to walk, he's so smart!
One thing that didn't change was the screaming.
After all three were potty trained, and knew how to walk and talk, it was time for their birthday again!
Here is Raurk! Who knew where he got his dark hair with red streaks, considering his Grandma and father were blonde, and his mother had light brown hair with blonde streaks.
Here is Rachelle, who still looked a lot like her daddy.
And, here is Rauleigh, who looks a lot like his brother, but has blue eyes instead of olive colored eyes. How did both boys get that dark hair?
Then, it was time for Cory's birthday once again! He grew into a handsome young adult.
"Cory, do you remember when I told you about the 100 baby challenge? Well, I'm going to get straight to the point here... I need you to move out so I can have more kids."
"Alright mom, I'll move. I'm going to miss you and the triplets, but if I have to do it, I'll go. I love you mom."
This was why Leiah went through all the trouble to go through this challenge, she loved hearing "I love you mom", there was nothing quite like it.
So Cory hopped onto a computer, found a house, and moved out.
After Cory left, Leiah took a walk, and came across a strange house by sort of a swamp-like area. She knew somebody lived there, because there was a "Sold" sign on the lawn, and by the door it said: "Eyes household". But when she knocked, nobody answered, so she waited outside.
While she waited, she chatted to Cory on the phone, Cory had just gotten all moved into his new house and was ecstatic.
After a while though, nobody came, so she said goodbye to Cory, and went home.
The next morning, she treated herself to a little shopping spree, and got herself a few new outfits and maternity clothes.
After going shopping, she went back to the house, and this time, a strange man answered and invited her inside.
"H...Hi, I'm Leiah Mistoffelees."
"Well Hello, my name is Slitty Eyes."
The name really did suit him, he had very squinty eyes.
"Listen, I'm sorry for just barging in here... I...."
"Oh well, it's no problem. I'd like to say it happens all the time, but I just moved here a little over a week ago, so I can't say that without lying."
"Well, I better go then, sorry if I interrupted anything..."
"Wait, wait! Did you say your name was Leiah Mistoffelees?"
"Yes...."
Leiah said inquisitively.
"Well, I hope you don't mind me being blunt with you, but I've always wanted children, but I don't have the best genetics you see, so I didn't think I'd ever have children... I saw your ad in the paper the other day, and I was going to call you, but I guess now that you're here, I can just ask you, can I be the next father of your 100 baby challenge?"
"Well..."
Leiah said.
"Please? Do I have to beg?"
Slitty said, looking at her and trying to make his small eyes as big as possible.
Leiah sighed. Being a chubby girl with glasses when she was a kid, she knew what it was like to be teased about her looks.
"Oh alright."
"Thank you so much Leiah."
He said huskily, trying to be sexy, but falling short.
"Really Leiah, thanks so so so much!"
Slitty said as he hugged her.
Slitty kissed her, as they got ready to make baby number 5!
"Are you ready Slitty?"
Leiah said, leaning over as they relaxed on his bed.
"As ready as I'll ever be."
Slitty said with a childish grin.
The makings of baby number 5! Luckily, Leiah heard the baby chimes right away, thank goodness for the fertility treatment! No more awkward moments like it was when conceiving baby number 1!
Leiah left soon after, trying to keep the memories of her less-than-perfect childhood from coming back. Slitty had only reminded her of what she was back then, the fat girl with glasses and braces. She was that no more though, she was a beautiful young adult, and that's all that mattered.
When she woke up the next morning, she felt the familiar feeling of... Morning sickness.
She ran to the bathroom to throw up, would she ever get used to this? She didn't know, but she hated throwing up. But, it was for a good cause if she got a baby out of the deal.
After she had cleaned herself up, and gotten the kids off to school, she went for a swim, which felt wonderful on a blazing hot day while she waited for the kids to get home.
Leiah hugged all three children when they got home from school, being a mom was the best.
After seeing that all her children were home safe, she went to the park and saw a bunch of butterflies. She caught one, but let it go right away. She could never hurt anything, or let a poor defenseless thing get sent to a science lab to be tested on. It was just cruel.
Meanwhile, her stomach grew, and she decided it was time to tell the triplets about the challenge.
"Sweety, mommy is doing a thing called the 100 baby challenge, and..."
Leiah continued on to describe the rules of the challenge, and why their father wasn't there to help take care of them.
"Would you please help me tell Rachelle and Raurk? Tell them that if they have any questions, they can ask anything."
"So, I'm going to have, let's see... 96 more siblings?"
Leiah laughed, Rauleigh's reaction was so much like his older brother's.
"Exactly, and mom is pregnant with one of those siblings right now! That's why Cory had to move out."
"Woah, mom, can I feel the baby kick?"
Rauleigh asked, getting excited.
Rauleigh put his hands on her belly and laughed when he felt the baby kick.
"Woah, he or she is strong!"
Leiah laughed back and nodded, knowing the triplets would be good older siblings.
When the triplets were at school, Leiah found herself getting bored, since she didn't have a baby to take care of, so she purchased a workbench, and started getting into inventing.
And still her belly got bigger...
...And bigger....
....And bigger! Until she felt she would pop!
And pop she did! The baby was coming, and Raurk was freaking out!
After having a home birth with the triplets, Leiah went to the hospital this time around.
After hours of labor, the baby carrier arrived! Multiples!
It was twins! Welcome Raine....
....And Misty! The weird thing was, just like Raurk and Rauleigh having black hair with red streaks, Raine and Misty had dark skin! Which was strange, since Leiah had fair skin, and Slitty had greenish blue skin. Leiah was just happy that so far, it didn't look like they had inherited their father's genetics. It's not that she would be scared if her daughters did have his genetics, she just wanted to spare them from the teasing she had gotten as a child.
