We have one more week before Becca (our heir poll winner) ages up.. so full steam ahead! (Hopefully we miss the icebergs..)

The first thing I do: move/upgrade the stereo. Now they have a better place to dance. That's Brittney standing around doing nothing, by the way.

She then goes to check on what dad is cooking. (Which isn't for her.)

Becca and Branden are upstairs in Branden's new room chatting.

Alan finally finishes making the cake and putting the candles on.. and we age Branden up JUST in time before he ages himself up.

+10 points for positive traits earned!

We get him the Law job he rolled for, and kick him out.

She was waddling around forever, I was worried she was going to bladder fail. I was so happy when she finally found a bathroom.

Becca decides napping on her bed beats the floor. I agree.

Aww... who broke the bathroom??

... This picture is brought to you by the floating book society. Why do sims do that?! I quickly put the book on the end table - where it stays for days.

Alan's sister stops over for a change, so we invite her in. I'm going more than a little stir crazy following Alan around with nothing else to do. Eventually, I decide sending him to work (alone) is the best choice. Because making him clean house and dance all day while the kids are at school is boring! (as you see by the next few pics)

Brittney cleaning up. She's clearly upset about not being picked in the heir poll.

"You mean the poll is final?!"

"Yup. Sorry, sis."

Salad time. Why Aimee is still hanging around is unknown.

A lonely breakfast while the kids are at school.

Putting away the clean laundry. I wish tossing it in the air to put it away worked for me...

Branden shows up - didn't take him long to miss the comforts of home!

Too bad we're busy fixing the bathroom someone broke.

We then chat to Branden who decides calling will get better results than knocking on the door.

Once the girls get home from school/work, we find Brittney in a mood because she's hot-headed, and she totally takes it out on her poor sister.

Then stomps around the house for a while just to make her point.

Noo.... don't drink coffee when you're tired.. go to bed!

Ashley, you have no right to make a frowny face because the dishwasher is broken.. when YOU broke it.

More broken plumbing.

Ashley says "hi" while Alan is trying to clean up her mess.

One teen made it to bed.

The other decided she'd rather sleep in Branden's bed. Sigh. I wish bed assignments actually worked these days.

Alan takes a minute to chat with his ghostly wife.

... Then decides to have a little fun with her in the shower.

At least she cleans up her mess this time...

Brittney wakes up early to take a bath..

.. and use the bathroom before school.

...Then she and Becca compare pictures on their phones.

Alan... again.. has a lonely meal.

... Some coffee...

... And does the laundry. It's at this point I decide the next day he's going to work by himself.

Becca comes home from school and immediately does her homework.... in her winter wear.

She then takes her salad outside to chat with visiting Branden. (Brittney is heading to work in the background)

Then Becca and Alan play a little bit of chess for lack of something else to do.

Thanks, Brittney. First you can't find your own bed, then you fail on the floor. -5

... Then she decides to sleep in Dad's bed. Weirdo.

I expect to be losing quite a number of them at the beginning of the next generation. Kids seem to do that!

I am a 45 year old American wife, mother, and gamer. I’ve lived in the Midwest most of my life, and enjoy it for the changing seasons. My favorite movie is Labyrinth, my favorite game is Sims 4, and I have tattoos related to both. My favorite colors are purple, red, and green. When I’m not playing games (which is rare) I also enjoy reading and crafting. I’m also an animal lover, and have had many types of pets over the years. Currently, I have a dog named Cassie who is a Jack Russel / Beagle mix and three young fancy rats (all of whom are rescues). I run this Sims 4 Blog where I post screenshots and stories about the different challenges I play. Also here are the Sims 4 challenges I've written, and a place for me to store all the Sims 4 knowledge I've gotten over the years. I am also a Sims 4/variety streamer on Twitch for my mental health, fun, and to meet new people. I have also recently been accepted to the EA Creator Network, which is a dream come true! I look forward to meeting you!
