Last time, some of the spares grew up and they all moved out, Lyle married his Meadow-Thayer-template wife,and a Borat-wannabe harassed the underager. It was a good update.
All grilled cheese, all the time.
Oh, pop!
Puppy birthdays! The black one is Bongo and the white one is Starla from the pound.
Oh. Oh doggies. My game only creates the bulldog ones and the Italian Greyhound ones...so I'm stuck with what I got.
Pop #2 TRANSFORMERS ROBOTS IN DISGUISE
Matthew died and I scoured the house for him. I noticed the urn when I sent Nancy to bed one night.
That same night...
URGH ARGH
Meet Curtis! He has a blended skintone. It's nice to have a darker skin finally, but he can't be heir. So back to the bedsheets and telescope for Lyle and Nancy.
Blue, for the current heir.
Zappi died. I hate that howling circle. 15 GENERATIONS AND GOING STRONG
Curtis's birthday! MY HOW TIME FLIES
Oh, he's really adorable. Nancy's lips?
MOAR PREGNANT
Kimberly, I am sick of your Pleasure sim wants. Please reach the top of your career level so I can ignore you the rest of your life. Also, you're really cute in that hair.
Yes, she goes to work. I would like her also to be platinum.
POW (with faint pink dust)
...So, invisible fish tank.
This causes problems later on, even though it was NEVER REALLY INVISIBLE (tab mode from the floor above :D)
Bongo and Starla's first baby, Vanilla. Thank you sim_spam chat for giving me a million suggestions.
'NOTHER BABY
A girl (which means potential heir) named Lee. Looks like she has her grandmother's (and greatgrandmother's, RIP Myra Maidlady) skintone (er, I think?).
Birthday!
I do believe he's adorable!
And here starts the problem with the aquarium fish. YES THOSE DOTS ARE THE FISH. IN THE SKY.
This fish was falling like a leaf. All the way down the house. It may have been swimming.
GET BACK IN YOUR TANK! WHERE ARE ALL OF YOU, FISH?
I SEE YOU HIDING THERE
Kimberly's birthday. Does everyone remember the heir-poll that she won? It seems like forever ago :(
She looks...old
Ooh, Lee's brithday. I wonder how she looks.
Hmm, she needs a haircut.
CUTE
And guess who's pregnant again? I need another girl just in case Lee doesn't work out (ie, is a clone of her mother)
Vanilla grew up. And I'm stuck with him because my dogs don't breed when I hit 10 sims on a lot.
Give me a backup, k?
This is Harold. That's not a girl name.
This is pretty much her life.
Portraits were finally finished and hung up above their bed. I ran out of room in the living room and they'll theoretically still be alive when gen 10 is born, so I won't need to move them.
Hey, it was Lee's birthday at some point. Here she is! So cute; you can definitely see her heritage.
LTW finally! That filled both her meters and she is now a very happy, old, sim.
AND SHE MADE MONEY. HOW BOUT THAT
Who needs outerwear when you have swim shorts and a wedding band? Not Lyle!
Curtis's birthday.
And it's at the same time as Harold's! Well, roughly, since Curtis grows him up :D
And here they are: clones. Well, not like it matters; they're spares.
I was looking ALL OVER THE LOT for Harold. HOURS I searched in vain until it hit me: the old kidnap glitch has returned.
It's his birthday again.
We've seen this before.
WHY COULDN'T YOU GET PROBED? With my luck, it would have been a boy anyway.
Guess whose birthday again? This update is ALL BIRTHDAYS O_O
Wow, normal clothes! Cute ones!
Oh wow. I can't believe how cute she is. She rolled Fortune, like many of her ancestors.
She also rolled Popularity, which I indulged her in. The girl is Marsha Bruenig and the redhead is Chandler Platz. I think Chandler might be the gen 9 spouse.
First day of high school. I felt the same way.
She brought home her half-aunt. They don't look a thing alike.
That's all I have! It was a pretty fast-moving update, but that's because this is the first generation to fully benefit from my age duration hack (shorter lifespans except for adult...more realistic since real people spend 40 years as adults and 20 years before that)
Missing some?
