I've noticed that when I play with any type of pets my screenshot count shoots up from 40 average to 84 today , I take way too many pet shots!
The day started pretty bad, I was playing with the unicorns so much I totally forgot to have Alex and Ryan check the mail and pay the bills. I have no idea what she even took!
Bye jerk!!
Then the computer busted so I had Ryan try to fix it, oops! Forgot he had no handiness skills...
Then the toilet got clogged...(then the shower busted about 5 minutes later)!
Ryan feeding Juniper an apple...in his undies.
Juniper got the pregnancy moodlet so I was on the lookout for her baby.
Meet Ivy, she is a nice mix of both Juniper and Stormy:
Ryan meeting the new little one.
Ivy and mom.
Ivy and dad.
Alex was going stir crazy so I shipped her off to Luke and Billy's house:
Um....Luke you have some explaining to do! He's never been attracted to any other females!!
And because I have absolutely morals when playing Sims and she had a wish to flirt I figured what the hay.....he did not reject her advances and flirted back, very Bad Luke!
Then Luke flirted some more...on his own.
The kids got miffed at Luke even though Alex started it!
I decided to knock it off, and have Alex apologize to Lilah, since they are good friends.
Since Ryan and Alex are not even close to a good romantic pair I decided to see if I could find girlfriend material for Ryan, Jillian was in the park, they seemed like they could be an interesting pair.
Jillian is a Manga-ish Sim (or as close as you can get in Sims 3).
Having some genie fun with Dylan..
Forget Dylan, I spotted Vladimere across the road and had Alex run over to see her long lost love (oh and I remembered that dude's name it's Gerard!).
Warp speed to girlfriend! I want another shot at a baby Victor (Vlad and Alex's baby from my last save).
I wuv him!! Alex does too....
Guess who was with foal again....(Yes, I did some coloring to Juniper's tail, mane and feathers).
Meet Star (the game named her and I liked it), she looks exactly like momma except for her tail.
Ivy meets Star..
The whole family...
I know some can't stand the IFs but I adore them (most of the time). Noah and his IF.
Great updates everyone! Had a trip to visit my sister's and have been dealing with asthma and computer issues. Still dealing with that.... but can I say @Charlottesmom that is definitely an adorable pic of Noah and his IF! One of the better ones I've seen.
@PalmArrow Nice makeovers of the zero-slider faced sims!
Got a Skylar update for you guys. Her mom finally went and sent her to college. You can imagine Skylar+ college = wildness, and thats the case here.
Andy and Savannah's youngest daughter, Skylar, has had one thing on the brain since arriving at university. Boys. If it wasn't hour-long conversations with Garry Cinder...
...it was following Matthew Tellmer to the campus pizza place.
...She even accepted a dinner date with her professor, Nate Bernstein.
But of all the male specimen on campus, one now seems to have her attention more than all the others. His name is Anoki Moon.
So I haven't had time to play today or yesterday, but I forgot to post a small update. I didn't take screenshots but Berlin is in a relationship with Malcolm Landgraab. Well it is not a boyfriend/girlfriend thing yet, but it is a romantic interest. I am procrastinating super badly not doing my homework, but if I get it done before work I can play after before going to bed. I have to be up super early tomorrow for a weekend in San Diego, really long drive, so I can't play again until Sunday. Yay. I can't wait for Berlin to age up. Hopefully she grows into her features and I can't wait for her and Malcolm to have babies. When she ages up, I am going to switch households long enough to move her into the Landgraab house and get them married and started off on baby making. Once they are all that I will go back to the Seaworth household.

@king_of_simcity7 , I think the old dude and Carla should give it a go! I had a YA guy and an elder gal and they were one of the best couples I ever had!
Love the jammies and backpack look.
Unicorns are pretty fun, I may add in a few regular old horses to the mix. You should find one!
@wickedjr89 , LOL! it does look like Ryan is getting poked in the eye with a horn! Oh No your Sim is pregnant too!! Logan is cute in a greenish sort of way .
Here is my Jellybean ghost, forgot his name he was an experiment as I really wanted to see what a jellybean killing was like. He was married to my Simself, biggest Sim killer ever!
@Cadh20000 , Recommended your hangout A werewolf in armor...cool!!
@Karritz , I may ease into mods but very slowly. I really would like new sliders, those would be first on my list for sure!
@Zinniavanilla , Post your Simself when you make her! I have no issues being very mean to my Simself, she's kind of a mary sue so I love torturing her! My husband thinks it's twisted that I've killed pretty much all my Simselfs.
@emorrill , You gotta admit William Shatner was not bad looking in his youth, too bad my dream was about old, chubby Will!
I just named a Sim Leah! I might have named a girl Leah but never had the chance. They do say girls are more of a "challenge" I sure as heck was for my mom!
@lanlyn, Eman in the Dragonborn face paint...Oh Yes! He looks great!! Looks like you need to go find your Sim a unicorn. The conversation between the lost tourists...
@Mikezumi , So I should start saying g'day mate huh ? I would LOVE to visit Australia, it's on my bucket list (along with England, Poland and Scotland).
I see Matthew's Sim and his wife everywhere in town, I had my Simself introduce herself to him a few times but it's a bit Yucky when your son's Simself get the hearts over his head for his mom's Simself! That is a bit too Therapists couch for me.
Looks like you kept Molly too? I hate most of the elder clothes, you can make some look okay (with different patterns) but not all.
I like Briar's dress lighter too.
@takenbysheep , The only pregnant Sim I had in 4 was Connor (alien baby) he looked like he was going to explode!
@Wonderstruckk , They do look almost identical! Very pretty girls.
@lasummerb , That MJ poster is too cool!! We just saw Boyz in the Hood, really good movie. Cats on counters in RL would drive me nuts, in game it would probably get the cat deleted. The one thing I really like about Sims 4 is CAS, though they really need more hair and eye colors!
@ClosetPrince2015 , LOL!! I'm going to cast some nice curses at the paps and tourists in my town now, thanks for the idea.
My attempt at a simself. I am actually a teenager but did not feel like making a Y/A to accompany my sim, so I am YA in sims
I have died my hair with henna, my hair color is naturally a dark blonde
I am: Shy, nightowl, good, family-oriented, and cat person
That's one of my cats net to me, Vanguard
She is: Friendly, proud, hunter
Logan being cute
Fun fact: Logan is named after THIS guy
@Cadh20000 , Recommended your hangout A werewolf in armor...cool!!
Thanks!
Other than the situations he wears it in the only thing about that armor that bugs me is it looks so silvery in most lighting and silver is traditionally a werewolf's weakness. It is like "Why do you insist on wearing armor that is only going to WEAKEN you? It isn't going to help in a fight!"
@lasummerb -Great update! @Zinniavanilla -Great update! @Mikezumi -I did get it solved and it's more realistic to have them enroll manually in school anyways because it's how it works in real life.Thanks for the comment.Great pictures! @aricarai -I've got 109 NRaas Mod files and about 500 other Mods which are all necessary to keep the game playable without bugs and glitches.These Mods are non-optional for me because I want to play rotationally and the newest one seems to be just as critical to fix the school issues. @Cadh20000 -Great picture!I had that happen to a gnome in Winfield once. @ClosetPrince2015 -I had fun removing the paparazzi with Mods and disabled the celebrity system in story progression.Your way sounds like fun. @king_of_simcity7 -Thanks for the comment. @Puddinroy -Thanks for the comment.It's fixed and I will have to enroll them manually. @Summerskydreamer -Great pictures!It looks great! @PalmArrow -Great update! @Charlottesmom -Great update! @vensudemilosims -Great update! @ccarrig_95 -Great update!
Winfield,Missouri-Fall-1855.
Here's Sandi near the end of a testing session in Winfield where I was testing out a new Mod to fix the school issues with overcrowding.
@PalmArrow When I first started playing I could never figure out why my sims would all look the same after a few generations. I didn't use the story progression mod in those days and because none of the townies were having kids and the only sims my heirs could marry were service people my original sims' genetics would soon be wiped out. It wasn't until much later that I found out that service sims and sims moving into my town had neutral slider positions. It didn't help that I didn't ever zoom in very close to my sims because my camera skills were poor and that I didn't have a zoom mod for CAS. Now I use mods, my towns are filled with the children of sims that I fill the town with and there will always be genetic diversity.
Nice tweaks and lovely update
@Charlottesmom I seem to take very few pics. I have to force myself to remember so I can have something to share
Oh, the repo sim! I haven't had that happen in years
Poor Ryan It does seem that things seem to break in clusters!
Ivy and Star are beautiful
Sims always seem to blame the wrong party when flirting takes place. I get upset when my sims have to apologize for something they didn't start ... sure they may have finished it ... but LOL
Jillian is cute but I would want to put a little meat on her bones
Good luck making another Victor
You could always have said g'day as I am and have always been an Aussie I lived in the States for 15 years but am back home now. I married an American hence my move but I am a widow as of this year.
And a visit to the university art center - which, btw, was built by her family's foundation. If attention is what Skylar sought by attending college, she was certainly getting plenty of it, including an interview in the campus newspaper.
In biology a classmate was giving a presentation on heaven knows what.
She even found time to sing some karaoke after class.
Skylar, of course, spent most of her time at the sorority, where she was a leading candidate to join. *She has her mom's facial features but she inherited her dad's eye color and her grandma's hair color*
She and Anoki were shamelessly flirting with each other the whole evening.
@emorrill I was thinking of what you said about TS4 Sims looking cartoony, I notice it when they randomly smile (which is pretty much all the time). I'll have to pay attention when Ayana is in a bad mood to see if she'll smile. She has the cheery trait, so usually she's pretty happy.

@lasummerb Actually....I wasn't the one who said that. But it's all good.
I thought I should get a group shot now that Briar is a child and before Knox becomes a teen. Briar's evil is showing and it looks like poor Knox is resigned about being surrounded by evil sims
@Cadh20000 - Most gnomes don't die. I can understand it with the 'regular' ones that also have kids, but it seems most of the 'special' ones that came after GEN also die. So my Sculpting and Laundry gnomes live forever, but Graduation gnomes and Mech gnomes die, which sort of feels wrong to me.
Gotta love the werewolf with his ears sticking through his helmet - maybe that's why he doesn't take it off, it hurts his ears?
@Mikezumi - Great pictures of the kids. I love playing families, and with GEN it's just a lot more fun! I love the 'submarine adventure' pictures!
@emorrill - the twins are gorgeous. I think I see what you mean about the eyes, it does look like one of them has slightly bigger yes. (The spray tan is a good idea if you want to tell twins apart... LOL!)
@Zinniavanilla - I think Lucas is definitely trying to tell you something.
@PalmArrow - I think slider-0 Sims can be very pretty, but I had a similar problem in one of my legacy games: most of my Sims married babysitters or papergirls and their kids were increasingly bland...
322 new posts since I've been here! I'm looking forward to catching up. But first I'm going to play for a bit, it's been like 2 weeks since I've had some decent gameplay.
@Charlottesmom Poor Ryan. Stupid computer, toilet..shower..dear plumbob >.< Aww Ivy is adorable! All the unicorn pictures are so cute ^_^ That genie picture XD Aww Star! Another unicorn
@venusdemilosims Uni ^_^ I miss Uni...I need an excuse for my Sims to go there lol
Spoiler tag for anyone who is reading my legacy story and doesn't want any spoilers
My Sim Galaxy has had the baby, it's a boy named Tiger Storm...and the father is now living with her...they are both homeless...and he brought his cat. The cat's name is Budge Jun, the father is Hyun-Moon Jun of Midnight Hollow..but as a vampire. All of them are now living in the library. And the baby is a vampire too, my first baby vampire! I added what they needed to the library...the city felt sorry for them.
@Charlottesmom, I love your unicorn family! I hate the repo man/woman though. One time I was so mad at them, I cheated and deleted them >: )
Cyrus and his wife have a beautiful (?) house that I built for them. They also have babies. Behold, the cuteness!
Albert and Kenyon are playing peek-a-boo in their playpen. Albert is the toddler dressed in red and he is 4 years old. Kenyon has just turned 1 and it is his first time in the playpen.
I think the front door is open because there is a cat either going in or going out.

That playpen is the most awesome thing ever.
All those toddler objects should be standard content. It makes having toddles much more enjoyable.

Absolutely no idea what happened, I just hadn't seen him in any of the gnome gatherings for a while and when I went looking I found that grave marker.
Yeah, I'm going to miss seeing his antics with the others.

@Summerskydreamer and @PalmArrow Great pictures
@Cadh20000 I have seen them randomly before as well. I have never actually seen a gnome die or get a notification that it just happened
