Guys, I really hope you can pop in just to give me a little comment on this! I am torn about my heir and I feel like I'm in a rough spot! That was mostly because Alwyn just aged to a teen but the twins literally just became toddlers. SO I aged them all up so I could see what they would look like. I mean if Alwyn is my heir I want to download his mate now but if he's not she'd be way too old for the twins so I feel like I really need to decide now. Although when I do look at them I feel like I can maybe rule Alwyn out but I don't know. What do you guys think? FYI I gave all the boys Alwyn's hair so I wouldn't let hair sway me
@debjameswhite To the rescue! Popping in to help you out I can totally see why you're torn though, this is a hard decision. Forgive me for not knowing the names (I still have to intensively read back), but if it were up to me I'd choose second to the left guy. He's super handsome. A close second is his brown haired brother. I love the brown hair/blue eyes combo.
@Debjameswhite - I always forget to add those playsets to my sims yards. Colwyn looks like he is really loving it though and I am glad to see his mom and dad becoming more hands-on with his toddler education ♥ Kristina seems like a very laid back mom too but I suppose you have to with little ones. Oh wow twins! The family is most definitely growing. Alwyn is very brave to befriend the monster under the bed go Alwyn! Rest in peace Caris. Lol the look on Colwyn's face as he spotted one of the twins is priceless, now he has to share his parents even more!
As far as heir is concerned I really like Colwyn, he is the second one right? I couldn't see Alywn's eyes in the last two pics of your updates. I vote #2 either way
@Ojenn and @Francisca464 Sorry I forgot to say which ones they were! I put them in age order so it was Alwyn, Colwyn, Davyn and then Arwen. After I posted this I was kinda leaning towards #2 Colwyn as well. It's really hard though the only one I was able to rule out on my own was poor Alwyn. Thank you so much for the pop in!
Tyrell and Alwyn decided to hit one of the dance clubs. Tyrell turned out pretty nice too.
[img][/img]
Of course their hip Grandpa was there.
Back home, two wild toddlers were terrorizing the house!
Please enjoy some random family moments.
OK I got here and felt a need to narrate again. Alwyn got into some trouble with Dad.
Alwyn understood where his Dad was coming from.
He cleaned up without being asked.
Our sweet Libby aged up to an elder.
Cameron is always reading to a child.
Oh my gosh…this was one of my most terrifying sim fires.
After putting the fire out, Alwyn combusted again. Thank goodness Cameron is autonomously on it!
He kept Alwyn home from school that day and took him out for a bite to eat with Grandpa. He looks pretty good for nearly dying from fire.
Love them!
After lunch, they went home and all worked on Alwyn’s project.
Alwyn was a little confused so having a genius grandpa there helping was great!
Colwyn and his cousin Shea have been having a good time with void critters and Libby likes rooting for Colwyn.
Then of course our sweet Bubbles aged up too. The sad part about getting kittens together.
As a slow eater who was often left at the table alone, I thought this was sweet. Everyone but Colwyn was done, Dad stayed to chat with him while he finished.
Later before bedtime Cameron had a little dance off with Arwen.
The next day Kristina took Colwyn and Shea out for ice cream.
Colwyn gets really excited about ice cream.
They had a birthday for the party and I thought it was really cute when Tyrell hugged Arwen.
I loved this picture so much!
This one was so sweet too. Love them.
The party went great even if my game wouldn’t acknowledge the sims listening to the radio or eating cake. FYI the 2 girls on the far right are Lawrence’s youngest girls (Cameron’s sisters) Heather and Brenda. The other 3 girls you can see are Grady and Elise’s girls.
@debjameswhite - I always love when I catch kids and animals together, especially when they like each other. I still really love how you decorated the house and the family seems to be adjusting to the wild children well enough Libby looks to be on a mission in that one pic. And Cameron is a good dad to his little ones even when they aren't on their best behavior. Aww look how cute Libby is watching the kids play Voidcritters. The party looks fun and everyone is smiling so I bet they all had a good time.
Evie and James returned home from their vacation to find one happy little Colin waiting for them.
While she was grateful for her mother-in-law, Evie was glad to be back with their little guy.
And so was James!
Because Colin is the curious type Evie makes sure he gets plenty of attention and hands on learning.
And when Evie has to work James spends time with Colin as much as he can as well.
Now that James was back into town he took some time to hang out with his best friend, his brother.
Both brothers felt right at home at the Geekcon in San Myshuno.
Back home Evie was working up a surprise cake for Colin since his birthday was just around the corner.
Unfortunately Colin just couldn't wait to be a big boy and aged up just before the cake was done.
@everyone Another trip to Dalton, GA so I will be gone until Friday! I hope you guys keep me busy with stuff to read! It's been so quiet lately!
@OJenn Colin is so darn cute! I love that hair but I haven't had the right child for it yet. I love the picture of Evie looking over at him on the couch. It was nice to see James get some time with his brother Then it was Colin's birthday! What a cutie!!
@debjameswhite I spoke too soon about having free time the rest of my week is booked out with client appointments! I hope to get some sim time in soon though
@OJenn I totally missed being able to read updates this week. I always get a little sad when our thread is this slow, but I’m glad you have so many appointments! I can’t wait to get home tonight!
Hi everyone! I'm sorry for my absence. There was a death in the family and another family member is very sick. My time's been taken up with that, and I just haven't been in the right mental state to play or comment. I miss you all, and when things calm down I'll be back.
You know how I mentioned that the family needed a bigger home?
James and Evie talked it over and with a little one on the way it was time to move.
They opted for a place right in the heart of sable square. There is a park and vet clinic nearby.
Evie loves their new outdoor space she calls it her little retreat.
I grabbed this house from the gallery unfurnished after filtering by hashtags ( #Brindletonbay ) The front porch is still a work in progress for now.
To the right of the front door is the family room where Colin likes to spend most of his time.
To the left when you first walk in is a coat rack and some seating to enjoy the fireplace. Underneath the stairs is a little rest area for their dog, Cosmo. This space leads to the dining room.
The dining room leads into the kitchen space which I had so much fun putting together.
In the kitchen is space for the washer and dryer along with a little eat in nook.
James really loves spending time in the kitchen staring out at his wife in the backyard ♥
And Evie loves the backyard alot!
Soon they plan to add to the garden with veggies and fruits.
Upstairs are the kids rooms.
Surprise I peaked and they are having a little girl!
And on the main floor attached, but kind of detached from the rest of the house is the master suite.
Hey everyone! Europe was amazing. We spent 4 days in Berlin and 4 days in Prague--it was perfect. I just wish we could've stayed a little longer. It was definitely a hard goodbye, but Shawn will be back this summer, so at least we have that to look forward to! I just got in last night and haven't had time to play yet, but hopefully I will tonight! After catching up on everyone's updates (and seeing that the new pack is out!!) I'm dying to get back in game! I'm trying to finish my travel journal before I forget the details, so I'll be back for comments later
@JordanNicoleJJ - That's so exciting that you had fun on your trip! But I'm glad your back, I just got the new pack and the small animals are so cute!!
@OJenn Thank you for giving me reading material this week! I'm sad when we're not posting often. That new puppy is so cute! He reminds me of when Quinton had Salem Aww I'm so sad that mini-Jenn passed away! I think I'm kinda glad you weren't there to see it though. I love seeing families getting together. It always makes me happy to see them getting back together. Oh and I'm really excited that Evie is pregnant!
Then you gifted me one of my favorite types of posts!! The house tour! And a New England Cape Cod I was immediately fascinated with the little side house I love the picture of Evie sitting on the porch smiling away. As always you did a beautiful job decorating. I love when you inspire me especially just before I'm about to build an heir's house! I love the gazebo outside and the step up patio to the grill. Ohhh that little room is the master suite! Interesting!!
@JordanNicoleJJ Hooray! I'm sorry you had to come back but I'm so glad you're back at the same time!!
Ahhh!!! You guys! If it wasn't for you I'd never know when stuff comes out...I was thinking I have the new pack...for jungle...but someone said small animals and EEP a new pack I don't have!
I realized I have a lot of pictures to post. I've just been kinda going along. I could post more than this, but I'm tired so consider this the start of my weekend posting extravaganza!!
Chapter 45: Getting Old
Cameron has finally started dedicating himself to his love of writing and he’s started writing children books.
Shea – Colwyn’s cousin and best friend came over one day feeling real down.
He really started feeling bad when this random dog started attacking him. Colwyn ran for help.
Out of nowhere, Grandpa showed up to save the day!
This family really likes to eat in the living room instead of around the table.
Colwyn has a lot of empathy and he plays doctor all the time on his own.
He also reminds me of his Grandpa Lawrence who was always playing the violin as a child.
Later the entire family went out to eat with Lawrence.
Lawrence also spends a lot of time at the house.
Cameron likes chess but it’s not his favorite. He plays for his dad though.
Kristina has one of the parenting aspirations and she is constantly hovering over her children.
Alwyn is a good big brother.
No one was ready to lose Lilly.
Or Bubbles
Right after that, there were a few birthdays. No one could be happy. Especially Colwyn. He was sad days longer than even his mother.
Coincidentally, this nice new family moved in to one of the neighboring towns!
Popping in for some quick comments while my packs download--then I'm off to play! I don't remember when I posted last so I'm just going to comment on the last couple pages.
@Heckstress17 Ugh twins--again--I feel for you. Oh my gosh the (first set of) twins are SUCH cute kids! I think I'm favoring Hunter just a tiny bit right now. And ahhh Billie's daughter is soooo cute! Now I really have baby fever All of their little outfits are adorable
@carlimact Congrats on getting your game back up and running! Wow all those kids seem like a handful--props to you for keeping up with them! Maya playing with Thor was sooo cute. Is that a full octopus in that Udon?! Poor babies (and parents!) having to deal with all those monsters. I was lucky that Billie befriended it so she could tell it to go away on her own Pablo's aging like fine wine I see And adult Thor is still cute as ever too! Such a mighty watchdog Hahaha, I love how Maya just slept through the monster chaos. Oh my gosh, toddlers playing with pets get me every time HOLY WHAT. Harrison is HAWT Can I vote for my heir choice now?
@debjameswhite Awww I love all the kitties lounging around the house. Oh my god, poor Philomena!! Did she die of hunger?? Nooo not Quinton too! They seemed so young Oh my god--the abduction--what?! That was so weird! Maybe Quinton's firstborns saved him from Grim. That makes me feel better anyway Wow--two single births! Did you change the settings in MCCC or are you just getting lucky? The ball pit!! I totally forgot about that. I really want to make a tot/kid/teen hangout lot with ball pits and arcade games and card tables and everything. Aww..I spoke too soon--twins I really wish they were more rare. I love that pic of the cats sleeping in the master bedroom--that room is beautiful. Ooo that's a tough heir choice. I really like Colwyn and the girl (sorry I'm terrible with names )...maybe leaning just a little more toward Colwyn. I see you added the mates I can't wait to see who Colwyn picks!
@OJenn Congrats on your new job! Aww, Evie and James look so excited about the pregnancy--I'm so happy for them. I love Evie's new look! It's good to hear that Mini Jenn visits often. I adore all the family bonding pics! AHH Colin is ADORABLE I'm so jealous of everyone's adorable tots!! Okay, Selvadorada is officially my fav sim world EVER. Your pics of it are absolutely breathtaking. They look amazing in their jungle exploration outfits I can't wait to explore this pack myself! All those pics of baby Colin They grow up so fast That house You are seriously tempting me to build a new house...and I just built a new one! Don't do this to me I think the laundry room is my favorite. Those rugs that came with laundry stuff make every room look so cozy. Can't wait to see the little girl!
@Francisca464 It's always great seeing a post from you! Sorry to hear you've been down again--and dealing with the flu on top of that? That's the WORST. I hope you're feeling better Eeee I'm glad to see Zauna and Javier are expecting! Omg Princess I love and hate how the pets react to pregnancies "Mexican standoff" LMAO, I'm dying Congrats on the twins! One of each, how perfect. I love the naming theme! Oh my god...those tot pics Those are some seriously adorable toddlers. Good to see Bolt finally getting some attention lol. Omg a mini Oreo! "Ugliest cat in the history of humankind" lmao, it can't be THAT bad *sees the kitten grown up* I think this is one of those cases where it's so ugly that it's cute
Hey guys, sorry for my absence. Things got really bad at home, as you may still remember, and I have been couch surfing and trying to get my life back on track for the past month and a half. I currently moved to the UK, where my significant other lives. I'm safe and well, and I'm kind of excited to start reading all your updates and making updates myself again! Hope all is well here ♥.
Do you guys enjoy the new packs? I haven't bought petstuff yet but I might.

James and his wife Evie have really been getting into a routine now that Colin is older. The pair goes jogging every morning together now.
But I mean who can blame them with a view like this to stare at along the way
James Evie have been trying for a baby with no luck so they adopted this little guy so that Colin had a friend, his name is Cosmo.
Evie spends a lot of her time with Cosmo though, she is a dog lover so she loves being around him.
Charles called up his brother James and told him about the party they were throwing for Laura's birthday.
Little Colin was the first to tell his aunt happy birthday.
While we were there I also realized Mini Jenn had passed away, at least she is reunited with her hubby
Although it looks like it was fairly recent as her son-in-law, Lucas is still mourning.
The party was a great opportunity to catch up with the family, and Evie found out that Charlotte and Lucas had a baby girl.
And Laura enjoyed the company, she seems happy about being an adult now.
With all the family time the pair decided to go and see Evie's little sister who apparently lives in Oasis in this cute little trailer.
By the end of the day they were both glad to be back home
And just in time for Evie to learn about their little surprise! Guess its time to consider a bigger home
