Round 10: Cipriani-Barthelet Family

Last time at the Cipriani-Barthelet household, Joseph Barthelet was the stand up guy we were all hoping he would be. He asked Sophia Cipriani for her hand in marraige without even a moments hesitation after she told him she was carrying his child.

The two were very much in love and looking forward to the little one on the way. Due to the limited amount of time they had to plan the wedding was small and brief, but beutiful none the less.

Right after the ceremony, Joseph ran inside to take a business call. Not far behind him was Sophia who was clearly going into labor.

With nothing left to do but panic, the first time father tried to keep it together until his child was born (but was not really succeding in hiding his shock and excitement).

Moments later, their daughter Fiona was born.

Fiona was a joy of a baby, and Natasha looked after her all the time for the newlyweds...

Things for Natasha were going well.

She had discovered a best friend in her sister Marriah. It had been many years ago, but Natasha had raised Marriah on her own after their parents had passed away suddenly. The two had never gotten along that great, but the older her little sister got to be, the more she saw the truth in Natasha's ways.

She had a great job as a broadway actress and she was touted as the Liza Minelli of Rose Island.

But it couldn't last forever.

As much as she wished she could deny it, her time had come.

Though reluctantly, she went peacefully.

Sophia and Joseph had her burried next to her husband.

Though the passing of her mother was sad, Sophia had her daughter Fiona, and wonderful husband Joseph to keep her spirits up. Not to mention the baby that was growing inside of her.

Speaking of which...is it that time already?

Guess so! And it's another girl that the couple named Olivia.

Jospeh kept busy at work (in the athletic field) while Sophia happily stayed home to raise the girls.

**players note: this is not the birthday transition pic for Fiona, instead it is her getting ready to run off to school...not sure why mom is excited, but it is a cute shot of Fiona as a child.**

I loved how you said "the couple named her Olivia"--I spent a moment picturing them telling you that. Nice update!

ooh, I love the picture of Olivia growing into a toddler. A lovely kid in a cute dress and fabulous fabric in Josephs clothes. :)

Loved the update! I also have some Barthelets in my neighborhood. But no Fiona or Olivia. Very cute girls they are. Got them married just in the nick of time, eh? LOL.

Natasha passed, so sad. She will be missed.

I loved the picture of Joseph freaking out as Sohia went into labor. I see it in the game all the time, but something about a picture of it was too funny.

Wow! She really didn't wait long after the wedding to go into labour! Talk about cutting it close!
What a pretty baby! I love her name too.
I'm glad Natasha got to be friends with her sister before she died.
Bye Natasha! What a cute little graveyard plot. I like them, but my flowers always seem to die, and I feel disrespectful. :(
Haha! I know why Sophia's stoked! She finally sends a kid to school so she can get a bit of peace! (At least what I do on school days, lol)
What a cute family - love the babies!
