Round 3: Scott
Last time with the Scott family, Hugh and his wife Diana had their first baby, a boy named Aaron. Diana is pregnant again with their second child and Hugh's child with Larke Wilcox (Adrianna) is coming to live with them this round since they have joint custody.
For those who don't remember or otherwise didn't know, Hugh had a daughter with playable Larke Wilcox in the early days of this town. That little daughter, Adrianna, has now come to live with the Scott family for this round. But don't worry, she's used to the naked displays of affection since her mom is one of the most notorious romance sims in town.
Diana gets along really well with her step-daughter. She hates Adry's mother, but she loves Adry just as much as her other kids.
Adry and Aaron are really close in age. They're only 1 day apart and so get along rather well.
Hugh and Diana have their hands full with two toddlers in the house and another baby on the way. But they better get used to it since Hugh wants to have 10 kids!
Being the knowledge sim that she is, Diana uses every moment of her maternity leave to skill.
Before they know it, their new baby is born. It's a girl, but she has a rather unfortunate skin disorder that we hope will fix itself in time. She's got a slightly lighter skintone than Hugh along with his black hair and Diana's brown eyes.
Going for the impossible want points for having 10 kids, Hugh and Diana immediately get to work on baby #3, or #4 if you count Adry.
Even with all these kids at home, Hugh has been working hard. But he still tends to fall victim to my bad luck with chance cards. Luckily this was just a hobby one and he only lost a little hobby enthusiasm.
And he comes home with a promotion! He's now an Art Forger!
Adrianna had a birthday and became a very cute kid. She looks very much like her daddy.
And she got a cool new big girl room at Hugh & Diana's house.
Hugh and Diana also threw a birthday party for Adry. They invited Adry's mom and grandpa and her two Wilcox sisters. She was very excited to see them.
Also invited was Adry's new best friend, Brooke Merrick, and her parents Daniel and Leslie Ward. Adry asks Brooke all sorts of questions about school, since she'll be starting this year.
Surprisingly, there's someone in town that isn't best friends with the ever-likeable Ruben Wilcox. I don't know what Daniel Ward's problem is with Ruben but they hate each other almost as much as is possible! My bet is that Daniel has been caught spying on Ruben with the telescope.
Adry had a nice time getting to know her big sisters again. She lived with them during her baby years, but she doesn't have much memory of that. She'll be going back to live with them again in the next round.
Sasha Wilcox is the best house guest, ever! She autonomously cleaned up the Scott's yard and their poor little neglected garden. Perhaps she'll be the first gardening sim when she gets older (stolen idea from maranatah!).
The next baby is on the way!
Hugh cherishes every moment with Adry this round. He didn't get to spend much time with her when she was a baby or a toddler, and he knows he won't get to spend much time with her in the next round when she goes to live with her mom.
I think if Adry had to pick a parent to live with full-time, it would be Hugh. She's a daddy's girl for sure.
No, that's not the new baby. That's still baby Holly (don't think I mentioned her name earlier). And it seems that Adry has inherited her father's artsy-ness. Her OTH is arts/crafts.
And she already has full arts/crafts hobby enthusiasm.
Aaron had a birthday too, and he is still super cute. He looks a lot like Diana.
And Holly had her first birthday. Her skin disorder worked itself out and now she's a normal-looking kid! Oh the cuteness!
Hugh is seriously enjoying being a dad.
Adry and Aaron continue to be best friends in childhood. I just really like the side-by-side pictures of them so we can see what they look like. They have different moms, after all, and I'm fascinated by sims genetics.
The house has been taken over by children! And there's still one on the way!
I have a feeling this town is going to be overrun by black-haired sims in the next generation or so.
Hugh loves toddler training! He's always got a big smile on his face.
Or maybe they're just a really happy family, because everyone is always smiling!
Diana is taking advantage of her 2nd maternity in the same fashion as her 1st...skilling.
But not for much longer because here comes baby Scott #3!
And it's a boy! With brown hair!!! That surprised the heck out of me. Baby Joshua takes after his mommy all the way with her skintone, brown hair and brown eyes.
Adry was very excited to have another brother.
And Hugh, of course, was very happy to have another baby. This family is going to kill me with all these kids!
Diana finally got the chance to go back to work and came home with an immediate promotion.
Then Hugh gave me a happy heart attack when he won a chance card and brought home $10,000. That's the largest win I've ever had!
And he squeezed in one last promotion on the last day of the round. So this family is definitely sitting pretty comfortable right now.
Little Aaron was happy with the winnings because now he'll get his very own bedroom built onto the ever-growing house! Hurrah!
Here's the family at the end of Round 3. Next up will be the Round Review and then a look at the town at the start of Round 4!
