Chapter 1.3 | Chapter 1.5

A brief recap of the rules for this generation:

Welcome back to the Stone Age! We are still inundated with kids, and: as a reminder, we still have one on the way. I say one – because that’s all the space we have in the house, so I know this baby will be a single!

We start with Arjuna beating up on other people’s sand castles. Typical Evil sim. Then… almost before I get the game off pause..

Aden joins the house. And, being worried about getting that last point and a half in Parenting, I have Utali spam interactions with the baby when she’s not gardening. It’s *incredibly* boring, so I don’t bother taking pictures.

Here is, however.. proof that it works. By the time Aden is ready for his birthday, Utali has maxed out the parenting skill. One more goal complete!

Yes, I gave him the Charmer trait to go with his name. No, I am not sorry.

He’s also incredibly cute. Here he is playing with his sister.

Toddler hugs! I swear, this wasn’t directed by me!

About this time, I realize I must start thinking about how the founder-sims will die when the heir gets to teen, since that’s one of the rule requirements. After some consideration, it occurs to me that probably the easiest way will be to take them “out” by Cowplant. I already have the one, so if I can fish up another berry – I should be able to complete this horrible task easily and fairly quickly.

So, I send Paku out to fish up his doom.

Less than five minutes later – and probably 1000 simoleons worth of fish later.. he comes up with a berry. We immediately plant it.. and begin the dicey-ness that is having two Cowplants.

… At least the kids can’t be eaten. Because Arjuna spends most her time out here, I swear.

BEES! Poor Paku ends up stung and sore. I feel really bad for him. (Also: make note of his arms. Or come back and look at them later. When posting this – I noted where his son’s skinny arms come from. You’ll see..)

Yusu doesn’t make it to bed on time. Oops. Bad Watcher.

Poor Utali is forced to garden pretty much constantly, trying to get her skill to max.

But, finally, we succeed.. which means that the only thing I have left to do is age up our heir. In other words, I could potentially had Ryorg, the first born, be the heir and I would have “made it” in time. But with as weird as the save was being about counting the plants getting evolved (to get most of them to count, I had to go into build mode, put them in the family inventory then take them back out and go into live mode again. very annoying.) … I wasn’t going to bet on getting things done in time.

And… the gauntlet has been thrown. Now I just have to keep the sims – and the cowplants – alive until the right time. Something I’m not great at doing (the cowplants part, at least, they always die on me.)

Awww.. brotherly love!

Skyor is making a sand castle, on his own. He seems like he’s pretty good at it for just being a toddler! LOL.

More creepy Crawlies. Sorry, Arjuna!

Our first Cowplant incident. Eeks. Now I really am going to have to keep Paku away from them.

This was the moment I realized I had watched Skyor age himself up, given him his trait and his makeover.. and then forgotten to take any screenshots of said events. Well, at least you can now see what our heir looks like. He got his Outgoing trait, and is complaining to his Dad in this photo.

Somehow the pony toy has changed hands, but I guess that’s okay. The twins’ birthday is coming up, anyway. And Arjuna has been too busy with the cowplant to worry about her old pony. Also of note: Aden proves that sims can pout in their sleep. Look at that bottom lip.. lol!

Playtime with daddy.

Yes, I know gardening is annoying.. but you still must take care of your pets, there, Utali!

Family dinner time. Only this time..

They’re all being stalked! LOL It looked like Aden was trying to be a shark and sneak up on them to attack or something. I couldn’t resist.

Our eldest spins himself up upon waking up. Also, sometime during the night, I was informed that Social Services could take him away soon if he didn’t get his grades up. I was not aware that was an issue. I’m not sure why I didn’t think of it – but after some research, there are a few ways around it. 1. Download MCCC and have the kids “quit” school. 2. Cheat them up a grade level so it’s not a problem. (Use the careers.promote gradeschool cheat) 3. have them take their vacation days they get (3 of them) towards the end of their school days while you wait for them to age up. 4. Wait and hope they age up before they get taken. I went with a combination of 3 and 4.. and Ryorg is now a teen and ready to be kicked out on his own. However…

… This was the result of aging up. HAHAHAHAHA!! I found the missing link between apes and humans! *dies laughing* Ok ok.. I’m alright. Really. Thank goodness I didn’t pick him as heir. And this is me – hoping Skyor doesn’t get the same genetic arms!!

Ryorg, chatting with Mom before he leaves. In my head, I have this whole story playing out about him saying he’s old enough and wants to be on his own, blah blah.

Dad joins in on the conversation, then I have him move out.

I use the Caldera Lot I have listed on the rules page for his home, and then have his parents come visit him to “get him settled in.”

Mom gives him a big hug. As Moms are wont to do, of course. Ryorg is still upset about his forgotten birthday.. but somehow the story in my head is that he’s already regretting his decision.

Dad cheers him up, telling him he’s got a great home and that he will do fine. He gives him a few last fishing pointers, and Utali and Paku head home to their house full of kids. Of note: this is only the second time they’ve left their lot the entire game. The first was to try to get the plants to make a cowplant in their very first spring in Willow Creek, but the plants didn’t grow in time, and I don’t think I took any pictures. I actually do have the Beach and the Pool lots I built in the world, I just haven’t used them.. mostly because I didn’t make any other Stone Age sims, and the improperly-dressed townies would be too jarring. So I just avoided them and stayed home. It’s not like they haven’t had enough to do…

Utali wakes up and instead of feeding the plant like I told her to, she goes and takes a cake. Sigh. Bad Utali.

Ryorg stops by the next day, and his brothers rush out to greet him, probably peppering him with questions about being the “man” of his own household.

Yeah, I know – it looks like she’s drowning. She’s not. She’s laughing Maniacally. Silly Evil Sim.

Skyor looks on in horror as his mom finds out she’s pregnant.. again.. while she’s in the middle of a conversation with him.

Awww. Paku really is a great Dad.

ACK! Utali got poisoned by a spider bite again!! While she’s pregnant. This can’t be good.

…. I have no idea where they came from, but there’s suddenly a ton of butterflies flying around the lot. They’re only there for a split second.. and then they’re gone. But at least I got a screenshot of one of them.

Dinner time again – and proof that Utali survived her poisoning.

Our sweet little Daphne ages up into the Neat trait. Looks like I know who will be cleaning up from now on!

That’s her – on the right. I let her keep her braids.

If I didn’t know any better, I would think Utali was carrying at least twins. But there’s only one spot in the house… for now. The twins’ age bar is sparkling.. so I don’t know which will happen first. Them aging up and leaving.. or Utali giving birth. We’ll just have to wait and see!!

Chapter 1.3 | Chapter 1.5

Chapter 1.2 | Chapter 1.4

A brief recap of the rules for this generation:

And here we are, back in the torture chamber that is the Stone Age. I go to load up the game.. and again cringe at the masses of kids. Then I cheer myself on. I got this. You’ll see. *wink*

Also, as soon as I load in – Paku is out taking a shower in the thunderstorm.. and the lady right next to him gets hit by lightning. Yet another close call! Time to get back inside!

The storm ends – so we send Paku and Utali out to make more babies. We hope. Maybe they’ll even be twins so I can get a full house and not have to worry about pregnant sims for a while.

.. And the storm starts right back up, while poor Ryorg was trying to get a waterfall shower. He runs for home.

.. And then proceeds to invent a teapot. What a good boy! LOL.

Oops. I forgot to watch Paku’s stats. Man down!

Apparently that Try for Baby was successful, by the way.

I pronounce this like Skjor, by the way. mostly silent j. He’s apparently not that ruthless, because he rolled “silly”. He’s also currently my choice for heir – unless I can’t get the goals done on time, but I *think* I have time.

And here’s our potential heir. What a sweetie.

Turns out that creepy crawlies does, in fact, hit the kids too. Darn. I was hoping they were immune.

It’s finally time. That jumble of wood there is going to be a bathtub. Eventually. I think.

There’s one twin.. Loves art? What? paintings on cave walls? Hm. *thinking*

And that’s two. Just what I needed. An evil kid in the house. Sigh. However, of note: both twins somehow got Happy Toddler, even though I *didn’t* get happy toddler on one of the twins in my modern-day Drifter yesterday. How does that work?

And here’s the twins after their Stone Age makeovers. They’re pretty cute!

This is only funny, because poor Utali is so very far away from her next birthday. And it’s not going to get much closer if we don’t start chilling out with the pregnancies!

Ta-da!! We have a bathtub. And he even managed to make the “poor” version that looks more ancient than the regular one. Nicely done, Paku.

Skyor is adorable. How can anything that cute be “the Ruthless”?

“AHHH! Pixelated Bats!!” At least, it said they were supposed to be bats. Looks like smudges to me.

Skyor playing with Dad. Wonder what they’re making?

Um… a tribal gnome? Dunno.. but Skyor immediately starts Monster Stomping it.

I have Paku join in, and he does so with a huge roar. It was hilarious.

When I took this, I thought for some reason it was Ryorg out there fishing.. but nope, it’s not. It’s Yusu.

Working on that Parenting skill. It’s getting there – slowly.

A hug for Yusu, because he got scared of the monster under the bed.

Yet another thunderstorm. With two lightning strikes in view. Scary stuff!

Boy, when it’s storming, that bush looks awfully far away, doesn’t it, Utali?! Spoiler: She makes it there and back.

Utali rejoices that she doesn’t have to forego baths just because she’s too pregnant to make it to the waterfall.

While the kids are holding a pow-wow about the state of the stinky bushes. At least, I think that’s what they’re complaining about. Baby Cowplant looks on passively.

I happily think everyone is safe inside when we get yet another storm.. only to find out our heir has wandered off and is in danger!! Hurry home, little man!

The older kids are all playing in their room – safe.

The storm ends again, and the cowplant is grown up and needs food. So Utali goes to feed it, while Paku completely ignores her.

Later that night… (At least he bothered to parental panic more or less correctly this time.)

Lol.. I’m running out of descriptor ideas….

Skyor gets his first bath. Paku keeps working towards maxing handiness and that toilet they really need. I mean, two bushes just isn’t cutting it anymore with this many sims in the house. Er. Hut.

Daphne is screaming – but we must make more babies, since she wasn’t a twin…. sorry kiddo.

When baby pops sometime the next day, we watch to see what Paku’s reaction is. I expect him to be upset. I mean – I would be…

But – he’s not. He’s thrilled. Okay then.

Oops. She didn’t make it to the bush. Poor Utali. But I laughed so hard at this face.

Some evil sim – here she is, happily playing with her little brother. (I mean, she does get joy in people being miserable, but still.. she is playing with her toddler bro..)

Umm… Utali is poisoned. From a spider bite. It’s at this moment I realize that the Creepy Crawlies Lot Trait is actually physically dangerous – because there’s no antidotes in the Stone Age. We’ll just have to see if she makes it.

I am really not sure why Arjuna is freaking out at the monster – she already made friends with it….

Just because of her name, we fudge the roll (it’s not exactly in the rules, anyway) and give her Angelic.

And she is angelic – at least in looks! What a darling.

I wait to stop the play session until I know Utali will be okay. Because I was actually worried we were going to have to start over the generation from losing her. See you next time!

Chapter 1.2 | Chapter 1.4

Chapter 1.1 | Chapter 1.3

A brief recap of the rules for this generation:

And off we go again. I immediately cringe upon loading the save.. because .. yeah. Three kids. All stuffed into one tiny one room hut. Yikes. Well, here goes nothing.

Run far away, Paku! Get your fishing skill up! Actually, this picture was taken because he maxed fishing.. and got the Angling Ace aspiration all in one fell swoop. That was easy…

Gardening.. is definitely not doing so well. It’s hard to skill up when there’s so many kids always crying!

Omg. I love this kid. He is SOOO cute! Look at that grin!!

Okay. I absolutely had enough of toddlers and their hygiene need. A pool is NOT cutting it – we need that woodworking bathtub. So, I give in and buy a handiness bench. I mean, he’s finished his goals, and his only purpose now is to be around to make babies, right? LOL. That sounds horrible .. don’t judge me too harshly!

He’s outside having fun.. while Utali .. is not having so much fun. Gotta get that Parenting skill up. She’s miserable, though.

Ack! Adorable Ryorg alert! Why do I not use these pools more often?

The twins age up. Arjuna gets Charmer, Yusu gets Angelic. And they’re both way too cute.

See? Yusu loves his triceratops toy.

And Arjuna decides to play inside so we can’t see her very well.. but she’s got a pony toy. (Just for reference, Ryorg’s toy is a butterfly.)

Toddler conference. They both agree the state of the hygiene around here is miserable.

Yikes. That’s a busy hut. And it’s more than a little bit of a disaster, too. Juggling everything in the Stone Age is really quite a challenge!

… Ooops. Paku got hit by lightning while trying to take a shower. We race him inside.. and for lack of anything else to DO inside, I send everyone to bed.

The storm goes away before Utali gets to take her outdoor shower, so she has to run all the way to the waterfall. Poor girl. Although, it’s probably a relief to get away from the hut for a change.

Teaching Ryorg to talk. He’s kinda slacking on his Communication skill, but seems to still be on track to get Happy Toddler.

Dunno how Paku can sleep through all that noise behind him, though. Must be an acquired talent.

When he wakes up, everyone else is asleep, so he takes advantage of the quiet and works on his handiness. I wish gardening was this easy to level…

No wonder she looks overwhelmed. Oh, and did I mention? We’re expecting again. So there’s that, too.

Haha. She looks so loopy in this picture. It’s a good thing sims can’t change traits, or one of hers would be “erratic” by now! That’s the back of a stinky Arjuna, by the way.

Finally! He’s sad about no cake, but he gets Happy Toddler and a decent trait. I’ve already decided he will NOT be the heir.. we have too much still to do.

Ryorg’s first task.. run for a shower. He *really really* needed one. Notice I prioritized shower over Stone Age clothing makeover. LoL. He’s wearing swim trunks.

After a short break – this family can be so stressful sometimes – I decide that there’s no way I’m going to fit a kid’s bed in this tiny hut.. so I expand. This is the new hut.. and they actually have things to do when there’s a lightning storm outside, now. So that’s a huge bonus!

Oooops. Man down! Poor Paku has been burning the candle at both ends .. getting up early and staying up late. But handiness is improving. Not there yet, but definitely improving.

Oh, man. I forgot about the monsters that not having lights will cause. … This is going to be a long challenge. *Laughs wryly*

Hey! You! No roasting marshmallows! They didn’t exist then!

NOW look what you did. (That’s talent, throwing fire from the campfire 20 feet away to the “end table”..) But of course, the firemen are autocalled, and they can’t reach the fire.. so I have to watch the whole family panick for ten minutes straight while the fire burns itself out. Fun.

Fortunately, a heavy rain shower comes by so Utali doesn’t have to waddle all the way to the waterfall. When she’s pregnant, it doesn’t do any good, because she pees herself by the time she gets there and/or home again, so it’s a waste of time. She just stays stinky – like the toddlers.

Gotta say – single most annoying part of this save – the Creepy Crawlies lot trait. At least it doesn’t affect the toddlers (don’t know about the kids yet..)

“Sorry, hun.. I’ll have to panick later. I gotta pee.” (I laughed way too hard at this screenshot.)

Shhh!! The baby’s sleeping! (Trying for Baby yet again… this time more because we need more kids than needing fun.. but hey, whatever works, right?)

Hedging our bets that we can complete a shower before she gets hit by lightning. Spoiler: she makes it.

.. But see that gem in front of the torches?? It was darn close to not making it…

And on this note… time to break off this post. The new baby was a single boy, by the way. He’s named Skyor the Ruthless, and – in my mind – is in the running to be heir. Provided I can get goals done. We’re at level 8 gardening, Paku JUST finally caught a Cowplant seed, and we still need evolved plants. I don’t know why I have so many problems with getting plant quality up since seasons – but I should get it in the springtime. (It just turned winter). Only other thing we need is Parenting at level 10, but that’s also coming along. Halfway through level 7 now. So – not bad. Just need more kids to practice on?? LOL.

Chapter 1.1 | Chapter 1.3

Welcome/Links | Rules | Chapter 1.2

Before I go any farther, I need to introduce our founders:

They are simply housemates at this point. However, that will change.

Anyway: a little bit about this challenge. It’s a modification of the “Through the Ages” challenge by erica180 (linked on the welcome page above). I will be posting the full rules as I get them completely ready, but for today, I’m just posting the first few generations (linked above). The others are in process, but I don’t feel they’re 100% ready to publish yet. Anyway, before I get going, here’s the goals/rules for generation 1:

With all that being said.. I sat down to get to playing. When I started this challenge, I downloaded a neat looking lot, and plopped my new Stone Age sims onto it… never knowing that I had just stepped into a virtual minefield.

To be fair, though, how would I have known that when things started out so normally. A little planting for our garden…

… And Paku starts his “career” as a fisherman. He quickly catches a cowplant berry – which I regret losing. You’ll see why in a moment.

Here’s where things started going horribly wrong. First Utali catches herself on fire…. okay. No worries, she’s just a little singed.

Then, she catches the entire firepit.. on fire. And not just once. As soon as this fire is out, I try to cook again. Only to have the other end table sitting there catch fire and burn to a crisp.

At this point, I’m thoroughly frustrated, and they’re starving and filthy. You can see the evidence of the fires on the ground behind their new stump-chairs.

I send Utali to go clean up, because she needs it…

And have Paku make dinner. Which instantly sets himself, and the campsite on fire.. again. On top of these fires.. they keep having routing failures.. or simply happily clipping their way through oversized rocks. I’ve had enough. I had a save from before I started playing, and I deleted this save and went back to that one. An hour later, calmed down, and with a new, plain ol’ hut I built for them – we get back to playing.

The first thing we do.. is get Utali planting again.

… While Paku.. you guessed it… goes fishing. Spoiler: he doesn’t get a cowplant berry. This time, or the next.. or the next… you get my point.

Originally, I was using the “original” rules, which required one of my sims to learn Wellness. Which made no sense, but I started in on the yoga anyway. Before long, I change up the rules… and no more yoga for prehistoric sims. I delete the Wellness stuff.

Utali cooks a nice…. SAFE… meal. And look, ma, no fires!

They stand around eating it – because – no tables. Stone age. And I’m somehow determined to try to do this without using handiness as a skill. (I wouldn’t recommend it..)

And here’s where the REAL fun starts. Trying for the first nooboo. They get pregnant pretty much right away, although, with no pregnancy tests, I have to wait to find out.

The next few days pass by peacefully. No fires, no mishaps.. and nothing fun to take pictures of, either. I need toddlers, darn-it-all!

Okay.. so a baby will work. Or at least, an incoming one. Ryorg the Wild Child is born. And is, as usual for sims 4.. pretty much a blob stuck in a bassinet. Exciting.

… More exciting.. there’s another nooboo on the way! Paku seems a little worried.

Ryorg ages himself up.. because somehow I completely missed his birthday notice. It’s not the first “forgotten birthday” he’ll have – without ovens, we can’t bake a cake.. so we’ll be waiting for birthdays.

Ryorg playing with blocks with a very pregnant Utali watching over him. Has anyone else noticed that parents no longer actually keep watching?! Oh my gosh, it’s so annoying to me!

This is when I find out that this kiddie pool… does next to nothing for hygiene rating. But I’m still determined to tough it out.

I know THAT face. Nooboo incoming!

… Er…. make that two nooboos. Welcome Arjuna the Quiet (spoiler: she may have been named wrong… ) and her little brother, Yusu the Stoic. I wasn’t expecting twins.. and in complete consternation, I decide this is a good place to take yet another break from these guys. Instead, I go work on the rules some more. And the four generations I originally added… turns into far more. *face in hands* .. Well, if you’re going to do something, I suppose you should do it right, huh?

Welcome/Links | Rules | Chapter 1.2

So, I made the mistake of getting bored and reading a link someone else posted to another challenge I was working on – and I was immediately intrigued. The more I read on the “Through the Ages” challenge by ericanoelle (https://ericanoelle.tumblr.com/post/188701427438), the more hooked I got, and the more I wanted to update things a little and make the challenge my own. I eventually branched off and made my own rules for the challenge, and gave it a new name. Originally I called it “Exploring History Challenge”, and a lot of people were confusing it with the actual “History Challenge” – which I assure you, is a completely different thing. I didn’t 100% know whether this playthrough was going to be be story or commentary, and I wasn’t sure I’d know from one generation to the next, either. I was just playing for fun (and to test out my rules adaptation), and going to go with whatever mood struck me at the time. I did decide to blog it, though, so that’s where this page comes in.

This particular playthrough of the challenge was abandoned when I started streaming on Twitch, and I decided testing out my new “Timeline Adventure Challenge” (what I finally renamed the challenge to) rules was the first Sims save I played live on Twitch. The rules have been changed fairly extensively since this original Plumbob playthrough, but this particular challenge attempt holds the distinction of having some of the strangest sim genetics of any of my challenges.

(more…)

Back to this family’s introduction | On to Week 2

I know I haven’t finished my to-do list to get this challenge all updated to the new stuff, but I’m so far behind where I’d like to be game-play-wise that I figured I should keep playing this in the rotation.. so here we go!

We start out as we usually do.. getting the couple together. Everything goes smoothly, which is nice for a change.

These two really are cute together.

I get to the successful proposal just in time for the Welcome Wagon to show up. A little awkward.. but ok.

After quite a few awkward conversations, the “Wagon” finally leave – and I quickly dispose of the fruitcake. No offense guys, but they’re really not edible. *wink*

Laney keeps rolling whims to watch Romance TV, so she does that quite a bit this week. When not doing promotion requirements and skills. Which is most the time.

Browsing intelligence database. She seems to be into it, though. Perhaps that was a good choice of career after all!

Looks like Vernon is watching an action movie. Perhaps he wanted to be an agent, too. Too late now, though. He’s a boring business guy all the way.

Working on promotion skills. He’ll need Logic eventually!

I have them (finally) seal the deal and get some “fun” before bed.

Easter holiday… Laney manages to meet the flower bunny, and find eggs.. but Vernon is too busy doing other things. Which also reminds me – Laney didn’t seem the type to clean the house, so I got them a maid early on in the week.

Vernon – aren’t you supposed to be filling out your reports, not spying on your wife? I assure you, she’s not romantically interested in the bunny…

Bunny must be near-sighted. LOL.

Working on that Charisma skill. I think it’s my least favorite skill in the game. Even Mischief is more fun to level, and they mostly just troll the forums for that ….

More reports to fill out. That’s business for you. The paperwork never ends.

First of all… Laney looks ridiculous cooking in that dress… second.. at least it’s red, so the blood from the knife cuts won’t show on those gloves…?

They finally get to eat dinner together. Before yet another full day of work.

Friday is Love Day, so I send them out to the local restaurant to celebrate. At least neither of them have to work the next day!

This date isn’t going well, is it. The waiter drops the food.. and Vernon can’t seem to stay awake.. LOL.

Vernon is actually awake in this shot.. and they finally got their food. Mind you, that’s after the official date counter finished… they only got Bronze.

At this point, I give up entirely on Vernon – and the dinner – so I send both of them home. The next day involves a lot of skilling, and apparently I get no pictures – which is okay, because we all know what that looks like!

Back to this family’s introduction | On to Week 2

Back to this family’s Introduction | Week Two coming soon

First off, let me say I’m glad to be finally pulling this save off of hiatus. Granted, I’m not quite done with setting up their database and the introduction pages, but it’s WAY past time for me to get back to playing them.

With that being said, let’s get back to business.

Azalea’s and Leaf’s first interaction. He’s telling a joke, but it looks like he’s making fun of her.

Azalea looks ridiculously happy that he’s getting a job. As I stated in this couple’s intro, he’s going into the entertainment music industry, and she got a job in education.

She’s a romantic, so I let her start the relationship, now that they’re friends.

They get together ridiculously easy, with not a single failed interaction the entire time.

She she wants to find her Soulmate, I have them do their first date on that first night. I take them to a restaurant. For some reason, he keeps getting up to talk to the people at the next table… but finally, he settles down.

Don’t remember what I got them to eat, but other than looking like a tiny bit of food, it looks tasty.

Steaming up the restaurant. *wink* I also decide not to get her pregnant on the very first night, so they just woohoo when they get home (and get officially married.)

Tutoring online for her work task. I send her to work instead of working from home, because she’ll gain promotions faster with her “working hard” at work, at least at the beginning.

I find Leaf spends WAY too much time in his heart boxers for my peace of mind. Eventually I start forcing him into outfits. I can’t tell you how much of the week he spent in his boxers playing piano/violin, though, but it was a lot.

Making fruit salad for her new hubby for their first breakfast together.

She looks too cute with her little chipmunk cheeks while eating!

Yup, he’s actually wearing clothes. Because I made him.

Time to start a family! Gotta fill up this big house somehow!

Blossom coming down the stairs to find Leaf putting up the outside decorations for Winterfest.. surprise.. in his undies.

A Grand breakfast, then they spend a good portion of the afternoon decorating the two trees I bought them.

Spoiler: They don’t get anything interesting or valuable. But I have to try anyway.

Oh, poor Azalea’s back seems to be hurting from the pregnancy, but at least Leaf is helping to clean up the kitchen!

Both of them are doing pretty well in their careers, although Leaf is ahead by one promotion.

I get tired of her constantly going outside to grade the kid’s homework for her teacher job, so I buy her a desk indoors, and put her statue that she got for Winterfest on it. He can help her grade papers. I find it ridiculously cute that they actually mark on the paper with red ink while grading, too.

Oof. That face. Baby time, huh? Leaf is at work, and I don’t want to bring him home for this, so she heads to the hospital on her own.

I think she’s a very pretty sim. Probably why I keep taking pictures of her that I don’t really need to take.

The delivery goes well, although I find it hilarious that she finds out that the doctor works at the hospital while she’s in labor. Really? I didn’t know.

Leaf meets his son, Edward.

Leaf serenades Azalea on his own, proving that these two are a great combination.

Just before switching households, it’s Edward’s birthday, so I age him up. As usual, he’s a really cute toddler. It’s a good thing they’re cute, because they really can be a pain, right?
