Round 4: Scott
Last time with the Scott family, Hugh worked on his impossible want of having 10 kids by adding 2 more kids to his family. That's a total of 4 kids so far for good ol' Hugh. Diana worked on her IW of maxing all skills, and they both tried to rack up the promotions at work, although Diana was on maternity leave for most of it! Let's check in with this busy family for round 4.
Diana is still working on those skill points. The poor girl must have awful hat-hair since she wears that thinking cap 24/7. Aaron is used to it and works on his dancing/smustling skill!
Hugh is still chugging along in the Artist career track. He's doing really well and adds to the family's income by cranking out masterpieces in his off time.
Toddler Holly is a very serious and grouchy sim, but you'd never know it. She's always happy and bubbly from what I've seen!
Here comes baby #5 for Hugh and Diana! Just a refresher, Hugh has a daughter with fellow playable Larke Wilcox that I count towards his "have 10 kids" IW. So even though this will only be Diana's 4th baby, it's Hugh's 5th.
Pregnancy doesn't slow Diana down. She's right back to skilling!
And in no time at all, she achieves her impossible want of maxing all skills. Woohoo! That's another point for the challenge.
And she can finally take that darn thinking cap off!
Now she puts her maternity leave free time to work making new friends and keeping up old friendships. Hugh needs lots of friends to get more promotions in the Artist career.
She also spends her time taking care of the kidlets. That's not the new baby, that's still little Joshua. He'll be having a birthday soon!
Diana's friend making skills paid off when Hugh came home with a promotion to Acclaimed Muralist.
And Joshua finally has his birthday. Such a cutie! He's a Capricorn (10-7-4-7-4).
He's definitely an outgoing and playful kid. And with 10 neat points, he should end up being a big help around the house when he grows up.
Aaron is happy that his little brother is old enough to play with now. He was getting tired of playing with all those stinky girls!
Diana gets to work toddler training.
Smart milk helps big time!
Hugh is really the best family sim I think I've ever had. He sure loves those kiddos and spends a ton of time with each of them.
And somehow Hugh and Diana still find time for romance. These two are like rabbits I tell you. She's already pregnant, but they're at it again.
A correct chance card earns Hugh some music/dance enthusiasm.
Holly had a birthday this round also. She's adorable!
There's a better picture of her sweet little face.
And she takes after her daddy with her love of art. Sports is her OTH, but she's always painting on that easel.
Hugh brought home another promotion and is now a Conceptual Artist.
The Scott family finally sees some snowfall, and Aaron is the first one to rush out to have some fun.
Hugh follows soon after and the boys get into an epic snowball fight!
Which leads to Aaron almost dying of frostbite. Hugh freaks out and rushes his oldest son up to the bath for a quick warm up before the social worker tries to take all the kids away!
Diana's pregnancy is moving right along.
And it's finally time for the new baby! Here we go!
It's another girl! Baby Lilly has the same light skintone as big sister Holly, but she's got brown hair!
And it's time to start working on baby #6! We can't waste any time.
While they're parents are "busy", Aaron and Holly sneak a quick scary movie on the TV. And this is exactly why they're not allowed to watch scary movies! Holly won't be able to sleep for weeks and Aaron is frozen in fear!
Hugh is happy to have a baby in the house again. They grow up so fast.
Diana decides to take up a hobby to fill her spare time during maternity leave. She builds a model train city and plays for hours!
Aaron has been making friends with the Merrick-Ward girls. Hopefully he can find a girlfriend in one of them when they get bigger.
Holly gets to know the oldest Merrick girl, Brooke. Brooke is much older than her, but for now they can be friends.
I think Brooke really only comes over to play on the model train set. She spent hours up there and Diana finally had to send her home.
Hugh's oldest daughter, Adrianna Wilcox, came by for a quick visit. She got to meet her new baby sister and bring some stuff over for the next round when she'll be living with Hugh and Diana. Hugh and Larke have joint custody with her, so next round will be Hugh's round with his daughter.
Holly was just a little tyke the last time Adry lived there. So now the sisters take some time to get to know each other again.
And there we have it. The Scott family is definitely growing. Next time we'll see Adry living with them too, and the birth of baby #6! Thanks for reading!
