Kids Count: 0 Young Adult (moved out) 4 Teenager 0 Child 2 Toddlers 1 Babies
Well, here we go again. And we start with a completely full house. Joy. The very first thing I do is spend some time on upgrading the house, giving them more room. Despite being four floors, we just really don't have a lot of living space. So I do what I can to fix that.
Also: I move the garden to a more convenient location, because right now - that's what's bringing in the most cash. Malakai just never has enough time to write so that will bring in money.
Not a huge amount of changes to the dining room, but that rug really helps the room out.
Here's where the bulk of the changes went. I expanded the floor significantly, and really did some work on the decor.
Moved some stuff around down here, and gave them a rug and some fluffy pillows to sit on.
And.. with all that.. it was finally time to play.
When I loaded up this save, nearly everyone was absolutely tanked on fun, so I try to get that fixed asap.
Then, the toddlers needed feeding. And Teens needed skill points for their "A" so I can get them out of the house.
Homework and cake. As you do.
Trying to get the toddlers to "Happy Toddler" so I can age them up. Spoiler: It doesn't happen until their actual birthday, but I do eventually get them there.
Coming home from school with no fun and skills needing to be built = workout dance video.
Yup, it's Monday, alright. Project day.
I finally do some minor upgrades to the "front lawn".. now I can SEE them out there.
First project done!
... Last project done! (And bills paid.)
Finally. No more baby to wrestle with.
Aww.. Hi Dana!
Toddler crazy day. Two of them are hungry.. and the third is getting into trouble. Way to go, Carson.
Carson complains about being filthy to younger sister Dana. Well, if you hadn't been in the toilet for a half hour!!!
Homework party!
Happy birthday, twins. Cora ages up first. And, as I said earlier, it took me all 7 days to get both to happy toddler. grr. I'm losing my touch!
Gloomy. Hrm. Okay.
Pre-disguise.
She's so cute!!
Go Carson!
Self-Assured.
Pre-disguise. Also: why is it ALWAYS thunderstorming in this save?
OMG. I can't even with the sunglasses. SO CUTE!
Carson immediately endears himself by cleaning off the table.
Three of the four teens come home with "A"s, so I age up the first twins.
This is what Ariel rolls.
I give her her conservationist career...
And Kick her out.
This is when I realize it's a good thing I'm kicking the oldest teens out - because the kids don't have beds assigned yet!
So, without further ado, I hurry up and age up Allie.
.. Had to drag her out of the pool to do it.. but she's gorgeous.
Bye, Allie! I manage to forget to give her her job.. and have to go do it before I go back to playing. Spoiler: this is not the only time I do that this update.
These alien kids are just so cute. And yes, it's raining. AGAIN.
It's that time again, Malakai. Sorry. We have room for more kids now!
Have I mentioned how much I love these money trash cans in this save? I don't think I've used them much before this. But they're SO helpful.
Wait.. it's actually sunny? What?! .. And notice the birthday cake? It's the next day, and Bridget finally got her "A" - so it's time to send them off.
Brielle goes first. In the middle of the craziness.
Oh yeah, that reminds me. Because she's child of the ocean.. she gets upset when she eats fish. Which I thought was a cute touch.
Bridget's turn. And it's no less hectic. Also: Malakai can FLY!
Not a bad trait mix.
Bye girls! (I then realize I had, once again, forgotten to give one of them their career.. and .. once again, I have to go fix it before continuing.
Well, Malakai, looks like your alien abduction was successful again. Dana is unimpressed.
Malakai looks insanely pleased with himself, considering his youngest is running around buck naked in the same room.
There's that baby bump!
Bathtime for Dana.
Some family time with the kids.
Carson is the first to find the monkey bars I put where the garden used to be.
Wait.. that bed can break?? Hrm. Interesting.
Toddler is the only one up, and serves herself dinner in the middle of the night. I then put her back to bed.
A bright happy morning. Perfect time to go into labor.
Malakai does not look happy with twins. Me, either. I was hoping for triplets. But twins will work.
LOL. See you next time!
That's a really neat house! Did you build it?
I did not build the initial shell, but I've made quite a few renovations to it. The original shell is by anchesenamon, who did a whole alien-themed Oasis Spring rebuild.
