Everyone set into motion and Jikan flounced into the kitchen, before his eyes widened. "Oh my goddess..." he murmured, before looking at Ninya. "I swear, that child..." he said shaking his head before going to one of Isis and Maddy's ovens and pulling out another large cake. "I thought I should make a spare." he said, setting this one on the island counter.

[clementine]

"I love that you're always thinking ahead Ji." Stella smiled happily, patting the male's shoulder as she went to dump the garbage. Soon, the kitchen was all clean again and another cake was ready to go. Stella sighed. "I just don't understand how a one year old can be so...naughty." She said.

[praiseofblood]

Isis shook his head. "Have you met Orai?" he asked his grandmother as he washed the fussy baby. "Hush up, you." he frowned at the baby. "You're in enough trouble."

[clementine]

Stella giggled. "Yes, I suppose you're right." She fell silent, not wanting to talk anymore on Ninya's behavior. It wasn't her son after all. All she had to do was spoil the little baby.

[praiseofblood]

Isis finally got the child clean and redressed him, sighing. "You and I are going to have a time." he frowned, before brushing Ninya's black/brown hair and kissing him on one of his fat cheeks. "Come now, and you're staying with me." he promised.

[clementine]

Stella laughed and shook her head as she watched Isis leave. Maddy was out in the yard entertaining his other three sons, tickling them until they were all roaring with laughter.

Isis smiled at his family as everyone ate and talked and laughed and then they headed towards the house for some of Jikan's amazing cake.

[clementine]

Somehow, they managed to get the kid's through the cake without them sticking their heads in it. Though, Ninya seemed to want to do it again.

Akale looked at his brothers with a handful of care before yawning. He was sleepy. Minakat was already draped across his brothers' back and lap.

[clementine]

"How cute." Maddy cooed as he rocked Kentale who was already starting to drift himself. "I think the party might be over." He chuckled.

[praiseofblood]

Even Ninya, the little terror, was asleep in his mother's arms, pretty little face peaceful. Isis looked over at his mate before shaking his ead. "i think you're right. Let's put the little terrors to bed." he said, looking at his mate and smiling before scooping up Mina.

[clementine]

Maddox grabbed Akale and carted both him and Kentale into the house house for nap time. All the party guests were smiling at the now cute children. It really was so much better when they slept.

[praiseofblood]

Indeed it was. Isis could attest to that as he grabbed Mina and headed up to the boys' room. As the party winded down guests began to leave, bidding the family goodbye. Drik'a and Orai and Erik hung back for a while conversing with Maddy and Isis.

[clementine]

"So, you guys wanna watch the terrible foursome for a bit?" Maddy asked. "Isis and I have something to do." He was already tugging on his mate, eager to get him away from the house and to a nice quiet hotel room.

[praiseofblood]

Drik'a smiled, shaking his pretty white head. "I already told them we would." he said, sitting down.

Orai just looked at his cousin, before sighing. "I guess we'll watch the little devils, and Akale too. Go--go have 'fun'." he grinned cheekily. Isis blushed a bit.
