The Owens Legacy- Chapter Six
This is my favourite chapter so far for reasons you'll find out!
Also warning: Long author's note at the end!
Skye told Matteo she's pregnant again. He was pretty excited.
Obligatory potty shot.
Emily got an Imaginary Friend. Usually I don't care, but for this generation, I've decided I don't want them running around so... *deletes*
I prefer toddlers to play with the other toys anyway!
Skye is getting a lot better at painting- I think she's at level five now?
She's also very supportive of her daughter being interested in music <3
Baby bump <3
Skye got a want to play for tips, so I sent her to the beach.
Yay money! I think she got tips from two or three people.
One of them being this touristy-looking guy.
The only reason I approve of this is because he gave her a $20 tip.
Back on the homefront, this guy showed up and creepily breathed down Matteo's neck while he was gardening.
Skye and Matteo actually do about 70% of their interacting in the bathroom...
Maybe to make sure Emily doesn't see?
They actually woohoo a lot. And by a lot I mean at least twice a day. They're constantly rolling wishes for it!
Quick break to take care of Emily.
And then they're right back to woohoo. They're going to make Skye have an early labor, I swear XD
Matteo actually cries quite frequently. I think he really misses his parents {C}
Toddler skilling time!
But it was quickly interrupted by this.
Skye, you're going to scar Emily for life!
...
Or maybe not, since she doesn't seem to notice her mum (or the screaming) at all.
Guys. You have NO idea how nervous/anxious/excited I was for this birth! (Story time!)
So I told you Emily was named after a character in a story I'm writing. Well, Emily also had little a brother and sister that were conceived at different times in one pregnancy (it's called superfoetation) so I was hoping for f/m twins.
Well Sims one-upped me and not only gave me f/m twins, but had them born in the correct order too! I legitimately cheered!
So this is Elizabeth Owens~
And here's Lucas!
Obviously, they couldn't all fit in the hallway, so I just stuck a room on the back of the house. Two of them have Pink as a favourite colour and one is Grey (but don't ask which, cause I honestly can't remember.)
Matteo is excited because he got twins AND a promotion on the same day. Yay, Matteo!
Of course he could never forget about his first born <3
Skye still loves playing on the lawn lol
Favourite thing in Sims: when everyone is asleep after a LONG day <3
Matteo had a late night taking care of the kids and his garden, so Skye was on baby-duty the next morning.
Emily does not approve of her mother tending to the younger ones before her.
I don't remember who broke the shower, but Matteo was quick to fix it- he has a lot of handiness wishes these days.
His garden is also doing well!
Skye had an opportunity to teach an art class at the local school and I decided to hire a babysitter and get her out of the house.
This is the aforementioned babysitter.
With a makeover, she's actually really pretty!
Bonus: a babysitter that actually takes care of the kids!
Checked the mail and got these things... *deletes*
Toddler skilling is a slow, but ongoing process.
Skye is working hard to max her guitar skill, mostly because that's the one that will help her at work.
Second promotion of the update. I don't think I've ever had a Sim climb a career ladder quite so fast.
Two cakes can only mean one thing!
Birthday time for the twins!
I did Lucas first, for some reason.
Blue hair. Wtf. Why?!
Matteo is very excited for more toddlers in the house.
Next up was Libby!
More BLUE HAIR. WTF EA?!?!?!?! Neither parents have that hair! Has this happened to anyone else?
Since Emily got Matteo's hair, I gave the twins Skye's.
They aren't identical (which makes me very happy), but they're both freaking adorable, imo.
Garcia came out to visit that night.
He stood over their bed for HOURS. It was so weird!
The family all together! <3
Skye had to go back to work, so Matteo was left in charge of the broad.
And we'll end this update with another promotion. Yay for successful Sims!
A/N:
Starting with this update, I upped the picture count to 50+ because I felt like I was going to end up with chapters in the high twenties before the kids become teens lol! So they're a bit longer, which means I'm not as far ahead as I planned. I have pictures for one more chapter after this and then I've got to play again.
Next chapter, you'll see I built them a new house... but I'm already working on House #3 for a few reasons:
1) It's taking forever for the house to load, even when I just go to map view and back.
2) I'm switching to a 50X50 lot. (Currently on 60X60.)
3) I decided I want a two story house instead of the ranch style I had in the first two houses.
4) I like the foundation and want it back (House #2 doesn't have one).
(If you'd like to follow my progress, feel free to check it out on my Simblr)
On another note, I think I want to do a 100 baby challenge... I don't know, I like raising toddlers and all the Owens are children now and Skye and Matt aren't having more.
(Also my Big Brother Challenge kind of makes me angry because everyone basically ignored each other for the first week, so I might start over, but I might just trash it because it made me angry.)
