Week 2 Continues (Nott-Ross, Wilson, and Hernandez Families)

A bit of playing and not much updating. For any readers that I have, sorry about the delay.

Nott-Ross Family.

Breanna and Damien were anxiously waiting for their first child. They had the nursery ready and everything...and even so, they were still not prepared. They were quite surprised when Breanna gave birth to not 1 or 2 but 4 babies, two boys and two girls). Talk about stressful.



Breanna and Damien promptly moved to a bigger house. It's actually quite nice and very spacious. Breanna and Damien have taken the 2nd floor while the quads have 2 bedrooms in the basement. Due to the move to a new house, their play week was a bit longer than usual and they managed to grow up to be children before the week was out. They also gave me the first real experience of winter with Seasons.

They built the snowmen (evil one included), made the snow angels, nearly froze to death, enjoyed hot chocolate and were introduced to the penguin who aparently wants to know what the pay rates are like around the area.



Damien has been working hard to make to the top of the Crimminal Track but is having a hard time keeping fit due to the fact he's constantly overheating from running on the treadmill in the basement. Good thing there is a shower close by.


Wilson Family .

Tanya and Tyrell have become children, with the promise that they should be fairly good looking as teens (thank God for Kendra's genes!). A bit of remodelling was done to the house and a 2nd floor was added as it was getting way too crowded with the way the set-up was. There is actually a full kitchen, including a STOVE! Kendra has never had one of those before. Tyrone was finally happy to have something other than pizza and cereal. Nothing else all that exciting happened in the house other than Tyrone leaving to go to University at the end of the week.

Funny shot though (I'm telling you I feel like I've posted this picture everywhere)

Which on of you little hellions put Glitter Glue in my Food?!?!?



Hernandez Family.

The family did an unexpected growth spurt this week. Miguel (yes, the little adorable one) became a teenager.



Felicia had a set of twins, two boys, named Antonio and Luis (all I need is a Theresa and Paloma and I've got almost all of the Lopez-Fitzgerald kids from Passions). They were a bit of a surprise and a disappointment. As per usual, I wanted just 1 more kid...I end up with more. I also wanted a daughter because Miguela is getting hoplessly over powered by testosterone in that house, but alas, she has to suffer more and with the way the trend is going on in this family, she won't have any daughters of her own either. (Come-on Tyrone, be a man about it and give her some daughters she so desperately wants!). The twins are both green eyed and black hair (apparently Felicia can't seem to pass on her brown hair without divine intervention, namely me, forcing Pedro to have brown hair from CAS).

Miguel became a romance sim who wants to reach the top of the music career. I've never done that career track before so it should be interesting. He's also decided that Blaise Hamilton, is quite attractive, and comepletely ignored the fact that his best friend Arvin (yes little Arvin from the previous post has become a teen with more intervention) may have mentioned that he kida liked Blaise. We'll see how this will continue with we reach back to the Seavey-Hamilton House.

An new member was added to the family and no it wasn't another baby. Roberto finally got the gold badge in robotry and made a servo he called Jeeves. I think Jeeves will be the only servo in the neighbourhood. They get kinda annoying after awhile. But Jeeves does clean up everything and takes care of the twins when everyone else is busy skilling.

Jose was not too far behind Miguel and 3 days later, it was time for him to become a teen as well. Miguela was kinda of upset with how little they knew their oldest brother Pedro so she invited him over for Jose's birthday. Miguel was so happy to see him and they spent a long time talking. Jose managed to get in a few words here and there. I love this sibling shot I got of the Hernandez kids (well, at least 4 of them considering the other two can't do anything but cry).



After Pedro left to go home, Miguela decided it was time for her to go off to University. So early the next morning (like 2 AM), Miguela called a cab and left for Truth U to be with Tyrone.





Roberto was so sad to see his only daughter leaving to go to University, he actually stood at the curb for quite some time.

Finally got a handle on house #2 and #3

After the small at home ceremony of the last wedding and the bust of my last wedding, I finally managed to do one right! WooHoo! But alas, let me go in order of what happened first before I delve into the wedding.

I finished playing the Schlel House (Ven, Sandy and Andrea), everything was going quite nicely. Andrea grew up to a child and to look just like her dad. Made an icon of her too. I think I'm gonna end up making icons of everyone at this rate, house by house.

Ain't she cute? She's a very bright child. She managed to get 7 Logic points before she became a child. She never seemed to want to play with any other toy. Sandy's also pregnant again but I won't see if it's a boy or a girl until the next time I play the house again....there are 13 houses that I have to go through before I even see them again, unless someone, namely Sandy, decides to make those random "visits" like she actually lives in the house. Ven is doing pretty good at his job as well and from his last bonus and raise, we built a little off shoot of the house with a hottub and glass walls. It's also where Sandy goes to meditate while she's pregnant. And onto the other house...

Yup. they got hitched and this wedding went beautifully. And a few pics of the event:


I however did make one mistake. I thought I had sent Breanna to make salmon for dinner for all the guests. When she finished, I just saw fish on a plate, I didn't look for details and I just dumped it in her inventory to be served after the wedding. So during the reception, she pulls it out and begins to serve and this is what I see:


So for dinner, everyone had fish and chips instead of salmon. Ah well! No one complained and no one went home hungry.

The wedding party was a complete success and they got a rating of:


Quite happy about that. And after the wedding, they both ran off to the limo, Breanna got in, Damien seemed to disappear to go use the washroom after all that toasting...and while Breanna was waiting in the limo, he decided to have a nice long bubble bath and the limo went without him. Well Breanna had a lovely time by herself doing...whatever and Damien slept in his nice comefy bed

Now onto the rest of their personal lives. Maybe I was influenced by JadeEliott's last entry on her blog regarding The Island of Thyme, who knows (you know I completely ran with the idea as soon as I saw it)? Anywho, Truth does need a bit of crime and considering both Damien and his sister Teneesha both got the LTW to become Crimminal Masterminds, then what better family to do it with? Damien is starting out small first, because honestly, he needs the capital to be "convincing" and I didn't want to use money cheats for him. But I can use Random Occurance Scenarios (from Island of Thyme as well) so that anyone who needs to pay off a loan with some serious instrest, goes through him. Currently, Damien is in the Business Track as CEO and Breanna is Vice-President. He will be quitting soon and going into Crime full time while his wife Breanna (LTW: $100,000) will keep the front of the legitimate business alive. Teneesha will start working on the family business when she gets to Truth U. This will be fun =)

Next house on the list...Kendra, Terrance, and the one who won't die, Garrett Cho. Next entry. Good-night
