Some of Holly's other children were happier than others with the news.
Oak - Another one, mom? Seriously? What, do you think you're in a competition or something?
Holly - . . . I could hide the body. Nobody would ever know . . .
Oak - Uh . . . mom?
While Oak was taking his own life into his hands at home with a highly hormonal Holly, the triplets decided on some adventure for their Saturday. They ventured out of the house to visit Hidden Spring's new arcade. (Lot is Rocket Johnny's Arcade by the awesome CK213 if anyone's interested).
The three immediately gravitated to the arcade's main attraction. And quickly blew through their allowance.
Then they headed out to the play area where Sunflower and Sycamore gave the spring-riders a work out, and Sage got down and dirty in the sandbox.
After a few hours of playing they got a bit hungry, so headed upstairs to the food court to see about some lunch. And got a rather unexpected surprise.
Sage - Uh, Elm? I thought you were gonna be a rock star?
Elm - *grumbling* Just order your food, squirt.
Then again, seeing who his lovely co-worker is, perhaps there's an ulterior motive for the job?
All too soon it was time to head back home, however. They played out the rest of the afternoon on the trampoline . . .
Attacking themselves in the entryway . . .
A quick break for dinner. (No rest for the weary pregnant mama . . .)
And a few hours of holding court before bed. Oak looks like he's beginning to wonder about his sibling's sanity a little bit here . . .
The eldest of Holly's current brood soon escaped to the quiet peace of the balcony where he got in some stargazing, in his star-printed jammies.
