18 Acrobatics and another birthday

Screenshot-x379

Jaron got some really cool props.

Jaron: You looking?

Yes, gorgous. Ahem. Flirty sims.

Screenshot-x380

Jaron: Whoops!

*Holds breath*

Screenshot-x381

Jaron: Hepp!

Screenshot-x382

Can acrobats fail in the sims? Jaron certainly never does.

Screenshot-x383

And he made a special potion!

Screenshot-x384

 

Screenshot-x385

 

Screenshot-x386

Amber: That´s so cool!

Screenshot-x388

Star is brave, a bookworm and a vehicle enthusiast.

Screenshot-x387

Paul: Another kid? I´m cool with that.

Screenshot-x389

I got a tomboyish vibe from her, so I changed her hair to this.

Screenshot-x390

Star got the potion early in the morning and couldn´t go to school that day. I was afraid, she caught Jaron´s bug, but it was only that one day.

Screenshot-x392

So she explores the city a bit. I bought two of these things for the children. Lucky Palms is pretty spread out and it always took them ages to go anywhere.

Screenshot-x391

I love this picture. Can you tell?

Screenshot-x393

Photographed mainly because of cat. Hi, Sybil!

Screenshot-x394

Uhm. I get the popups. But then I forget about them.

So my founder has no party for her adult birthday.

Screenshot-x395

But she doesn´t seem to mind.

Screenshot-x397a

Violetta: Still not bad, huh?

Right you are.

No midlife crisis either.

17 A lot of birthdays

Screenshot-x359

Nathan grew up in the dark on the frontporch. He rolled friendly.

I wanted to take better pictures of him in the morning, but…

Screenshot-x361

This very night he got abducted by aliens and I kinda forgot.

Screenshot-x364

Yes, Nathan, I don´t like him either. Even if he is an alien fashion rebell.

Screenshot-x366

It´s safe to say that Nathan got Violetta´s nose.

Screenshot-x368

Jaron continues to perform. I like this career and its oufits.

Screenshot-x370

Joe has got a lot of friends. This is Cara Rangel.

Screenshot-x371

Paul´s garden comes along nicely (just ignore the weeds). We´ve got life fruit, flame fruit, and he got the opportunity to plant cheese and eggs. I want a sim garden…

Screenshot-x373

Sorry Steven, no more prince playing for you.

Screenshot-x374

What´s with that hair??

Steven: I like it.

Well, I don´t.

Screenshot-x377

He rolled family oriented. So now he´s a grumpy loner who wants a lot of children. Nice.

Actually, his lifetime wish is culinary library. I think he rolled it after a school trip to the diner.

Screenshot-x378

And if Steven has his birthday…

Screenshot-x375

… Joe does, too!

Screenshot-x376

Not bad, but I changed the hair.

But I somehow didn´t take photos of that.

He rolled friendly.

16 Inappropiate flirting and another burglar

Screenshot-x345

Jaron spends most of his time at the park performing. Nathan wanted to visit the summerfestival, so I sent him there and they started rollerskating.

Screenshot-x346

Did I mention, that Lucky Palms is really pretty?

Screenshot-x347

Amber is more interested in dressing up as a princess and pillow fighting with Star.

Screenshot-x348

 

Screenshot-x349

The barn has changed again – from left to right are Violetta and Paul´s bedroom, then it´s Amber´s (and Star´s when she becomes real), Jaron and Nathan´s, Steven and Joe´s. I suck at decorating, but nobody has any routing issues. And nobody seems to make the beds.

Screenshot-x350

Violetta wished to paint a portrait of Paul. This fulfilled the wish, but.. um, Violetta? Can you try again?

Screenshot-x351

Violetta: Not right now. I´m busy flirting.

Screenshot-x352

Sigh. Jaron is flirty and Violetta is a hopeless romantic. This was bound to happen.

Violetta? Your husband, the one you wanted to paint? He´s sitting RIGHT THERE behind the window?

Violetta: *ignores*

Screenshot-x353

Aaand another burglar. Seriously, what´s up with that?

Screenshot-x354

Violetta: Oh, the burglar alarm!

Jaron: Just sitting here.

Amber: Burglar alarm.

Joe: Burgler alarm.

Steven: Just coming through.

Screenshot-x355

Violetta: Oh noes, the drama!

Jaron: *slowly rocking*

Amber: Burglar alarm.

Joe: WOKE ME UP! RAAH!

Steven: What´s up with you guys?

Screenshot-x356

Violetta: *slump*

Screenshot-x357

Paul: Let´s get inside.

Steven: What about mum?

Paul: … She´ll come around.

Perhaps he DID look out of this window.

15 Get real

Warning: this post contains a naked sim-butt.

 

Screenshot-x324

I completly failed to take photos of Jaron´s birthday. Because of his problems with high school I couldn´t roll his trait, but he gained disciplined. Could have been worse. He´s also basicaly a face one, so I gave him a bit more interesting haircolour and tweaked his ears a bit.

Screenshot-x327

He frequently gets hit by the no-clothes-after-shower-bug. I suspect it´s on purpose.

Screenshot-x328

Violetta certainly seems to enjoy it.

Violetta: Niiiiiiiiiiice!

VIOLETTA!

Violetta: What? I´m allowed to look!

Screenshot-x325

She went to the park to work on her LTW. Also for moral support.

Screenshot-x326

Because Jaron starts his acrobat career!

Screenshot-x329

I think, I will have a lot of fun with that.

Screenshot-x331

He´s good!

Screenshot-x332

Even though watching him with all those sharp and flaming objects makes me kind of nervous.

Screenshot-x333

Jaron didn´t manage to find that IF potion, but Steven got the opportunity from the science lab. And we already had the rainbow gem, so…

Screenshot-x334

Joe: For me?

Screenshot-x336

Bottoms up!

Screenshot-x337

Sparkly bubbles!

Screenshot-x338

 

Screenshot-x339

Steven: …this is kinda awkward…

Joe: …yeah…

Screenshot-x340

Steven: Welcome to the real world!

Screenshot-x341

So this is Joe. He can´t stand art, is clumsy and will never get nude.

Screenshot-x342

He has the most amazing eyes.

Screenshot-x343

He´s also beyond cute. Star is in her puppet form, because Amber has an opportunity after school and isn´t home yet.

Screenshot-x344

Joe hugges Star as if to say:

Don´t worry. You´ll get real as well.

14 Cuties

This post consists mainly of photos of my sim children being cute.

Screenshot-x297

Nathan plays peek-a-boo with Amber.

Screenshot-x298

 

Screenshot-x299

He wanted to use the telescope.

Screenshot-x300

Steven grows up in the bathroom.

Screenshot-x301

Yep, cute.

Screenshot-x302

And another burglar. Not cute.

Screenshot-x303

Joe wants to come out. Amber is not impressed.

(I swear, I added ceiling tiles at some point. Not yet, apparantley.)

Amber has an IF, too – I named her Star, because of the pattern on her clothes. Waaaaaay later I realized, I had named a sim Star Dust. Yay, me!

Screenshot-x306

I like IFs. I often take them away from the toddlers, because otherwise they do nothing else, but play with the damned doll. I want them to skill! When they have nothing else to do, they get them back.

Screenshot-x307

Pillow fight!

Screenshot-x308

What is wrong with this picture?

What´s wrong with this picture is, that´s NOTHING wrong with it. Steven asked autonomously for a bedtime story. That is actually his own bed, his MUM is reading an children-appropriate book to him, and…

Screenshot-x309

… he even fell asleep. That has to be a first for me, since I got Generations.

Screenshot-x311

In her freetime Violetta writes romantic novels. She´s getting pretty good at it!

Screenshot-x311a

Don´t know, where we got the special egg. Someone had it in his or her inventory after a family outing at spring festival.

Screenshot-x312

Jaron still can´t go to school, so I occupy him otherwise. Find me that IF potion!

Screenshot-x315

Amber eats Mr. Green.

Screenshot-x316

Or maybe not.

Screenshot-x317

I clicked on Stevens stressed out moodlet, after he came home from school.

Screenshot-x318

Instead of playing with Joe, he cuddles with his teddy. I found that interesting.

Screenshot-x319

Brushing the cat, because cute.

Screenshot-x320

Nathan must have spend half of his childhood in that costume. Whenever I search for him, he is somewhere and presides over the royal court. But he finds time to feed his baby sister.

Screenshot-x321

Jaron graduates, despite never going to high school. His grades were naturally pretty bad, and I forgot what he was most likely to do in his life.

His lifetime wish is to become an acrobat, by the way. I´m pretty excited by that, because I´ve never done that before.

Screenshot-x322

Amber grows up!

Screenshot-x323

That´s not bad for a random outfit. I changed it anyway.

Screenshot-x324a

And Star comes out to play! I actually have two rainbow gems, Violetta found one in France, and one somewhere in Lucky Palms, but I want to wait if Jaron finds the IF metamorphium potion – no need to waste those gems then…

13 Wedding

Screenshot-x281

The day has finally come: Violetta is marrying her frog!

My sister pointed out, that a hydrophobic frog is hilarious. I think, that´s right, IF Paul was a frog who got transformed into a sim. BUT if he was a sim who got transformed into a frog (by an evil witch or something), and got rescued by Violetta´s kiss, then I think, beeing hydrophobic makes a lot of sense. I wonder, if all sims out of the wishing well have this trait?

Screenshot-x284

I placed both the wedding arch and the cake not very well, so I had a lot of trouble with the photos.

Screenshot-x286

But they are adorable anyway.

Screenshot-x287

 

Screenshot-x288

 

Screenshot-x290

And some of the guests even sat down!

Screenshot-x291

 

Screenshot-x292

Violetta: That´s not the cake I ordered!

Paul: But it looks… nice?

Screenshot-x293

Violetta: Ah, well, I guess you are right!

Screenshot-x294

Everyone had a good time.

Screenshot-x296

Especially this guy, who glitched out and was still clapping long after all the others had gone. I had to reset him.

12 Snowflakeday, burglary and a birthday

Screenshot-x266

We had a gift giving party! I only have one photo, though.

Screenshot-x267

A party always wrecks havoc with my sims schedule. After they are finally all asleep, of course there is a burglary!

Screenshot-x268

Coward Violetta comes to investigate and promptly faints.

Screenshot-x269

That must be cold.

Screenshot-x270

After recovering, she builds a snowman.

Screenshot-x271

Violetta: He will guard the house!

… okay.

Screenshot-x272

I really recommend kidnapping adopting the babysitter! It´s nice to have help with the three toddlers.

Screenshot-x273

Although this one will be soon to old to be held like this.

Screenshot-x274

Playing together.

Screenshot-x275

Or discussing economics?

Screenshot-x276

Nathan grows up.

Screenshot-x278

Hi there, cutie! He has a very distinctive face for a sim child. I see a lot of Violetta in him. He rolled brave.

11 Bachalorette party

Screenshot-x261

Last time I adopted the only capable babysitter the game ever sent me, Jaron. Turns out, he´s a bit glitched – the schoolbus does not come for him, and the option to attend school is greyed out. Well, he can learn at home.

Screenshot-x264

He´s very athletic, even if he doesn´t have the trait – he works out autonomously and always choses to do some sports when left on his own.

Screenshot-x265

I gave him new clothes, but he insisted on keeping the hat. He loves that hat.

Screenshot-x251

Violetta wanted to throw a bachalorette party. I´ve never done that before, so here we go. Paul stayed, because I forgot to sent him somewhere else.

Violetta: Don´t mind me, just standing in the snow in some underwear the game gave me, and watching my fiance throw bubbly at my best friend.

Screenshot-x252

Violetta: He´s so cute!

Screenshot-x253

Well, I´ve seen worse bachalorette outfits, but not many.

Violetta: Don´t care! Pizza!

Screenshot-x254

There were two strippers dancers at the party. They decided to perform in Jaron´s new bedroom.

Screenshot-x255

More bubbly!

Screenshot-x257

 

Screenshot-x258

It went pretty well, I guess.

10 Proposing and a babysitter

Screenshot-x234

Who´s that, you my ask?

Well, Violetta and Paul had to hire a babysitter because they are going on an important date!

Screenshot-x235

Of course, it has to snow. But the view is still pretty.

Screenshot-x236

Violetta: So… I think, you are really a great guy…

Screenshot-x237

Violetta: …and, you know…

Screenshot-x238

Violetta: What I mean is… wanna go steady??

Screenshot-x239

Paul: Considering we just left our THREE children with an untrustworthy babysitter, that´s a GREAT idea!

Screenshot-x240

Smooooooooooooch

Screenshot-x241

Violetta: So… now that you´re my boyfriend…

Screenshot-x242

Violetta: … I think, I have a ring here somewhere…

Screenshot-x243

Paul: Did you lose it in the snow?

Violetta: NO, silly! I mean, do you wanna marry me?

Screenshot-x244

Paul: … yes.

Screenshot-x245

 

Screenshot-x246

 

Screenshot-x247

And this is how Violetta and Paul got engaged.

Meanwhile at the barn, the babysitter was actually doing very well.

Screenshot-x248

(I have this weird glitch, where the toddlers queue up the block box, then wander out of the house, plop themselve down, drop the action and wander back in after a while)

The babysitter was outside, building a snowman, but he immediatly put Amber in her outerwear and brought her back inside.

Screenshot-x249

Then he bonded with the cats.

I got curious and checked him with mastercontroler.

His name is Jaron Panther, he´s flirty, a slob, unlucky and family oriented.

And he´s homeless. A poor homeless teenager is taking care of my pampered toddlers.

Ahem. Yes, I know. Just pixels.

Screenshot-x250

But I added him to the family and had to expand the barn again.

9 Toddler cuteness

Screenshot-x213

Violetta continues to work on her lifetime wish, while watching the kiddos.

Screenshot-x216

And it´s already time for the next one!

Screenshot-x217

Sparkles!

Screenshot-x218

Yay! It´s a pink burrito a girl! (You can kinda tell, that I don´t like sim babies that much. I think, they are creepy.)

Screenshot-x219

Meet Amber: she rolled loves the cold and easily impressed.

Screenshot-x221

The toddler interactions with pets are so cute!

Screenshot-x222

Steven: ´m not cute! ´m gumpy!

Sure you are.

Screenshot-x211

More cat-toddler cuteness: Nathan´s sleepschedule got somehow totally out of whack, and I let him sleep on the rugs. Sybil decides to join.

Screenshot-x223

Susan needs some screentime, too.

Screenshot-x224

She wanted to watch tv, but doesn´t seem to enjoy it very much.

Screenshot-x226

Playing together.

Screenshot-x227

Amber grew up. I think, she can keep the hair.

Screenshot-x231

Steven has an IF – Nathan is not impressed.

Nate: Wanne play syllofon! Geddit off!

The dolls name is Joe.

Screenshot-x232

Nearly done! That´s enough toddler skilling for a while.

Screenshot-x233

Soon they will grow up!
