Things were going pretty well once we got the kids on a routine, but something just didn't feel right.
Neleesh and I began to argue a lot. I think the darkness inside each of us was beginning to bump heads.
So when the kids were in school, I hung out with my niece Cason. We mostly hit the gym, I still haven't reached my goals yet.
I had my eye on a really handsome guy who began to show up in at the same gym we went to. Eventually I worked up the nerve to speak to him.
The fighting with Neleesh never let up. Everyday I became more angry and distant. I barely spent time with the twins since their birthday. All I wanted to do was go back to that gym and talk to Vincent. So I did.
Vincent was always super flirty whenever I saw him, and he hardly ever wore a shirt!
I eventually invited Vincent home with me for lunch, he was becoming a really good friend. Unfortuantely he blew me a kiss while Neleesh was sitting near by.
Neleesh decided we should get divorced. Things weren't working out and we were only making each other angry. So with that, Neleesh took an angry poop and left the house for good.
With all the drama going on for the last week, the house was a mess. Dad was working and spending a lot of time with Baine and Balen. Mom was franticly trying to sell 3 bestsellers. Vincent decided to stick around and help tidy up.
As time when on, we all got back into a routine. Mom and dad were me helping with kids and I was beginning to get over Neleesh. Caiden took things the hardest. On top of that I caught him mourning his grandma a few times while Camdyn tried to cheer him up. Eventually I took up mom's tombstone.
Vincent took me out a quite a few dates. Sometimes we just stayed at home with the kids. Camdyn really took a liking to him, so did I.
@iamdun Finally got a chance to look up Origin ID: ohitchristian in the gallery. Lots of really great Sims households ready to add to my game. Thank you for sharing them.
The pool house is coming along, Ailani and Natalie have moved their bedroom out of the main house. But the house is coming along.
I wanted to speed things up a bit, so less of a story this round. Bailey and Vincent's twins turned out to be really easy as babies, so they tried for another. Guess what? They ended up with another set of twins. When I was rolling the traits for the kids, I remembered I had Bailey drink a fertility potion. Maybe that's why she's had 3 sets of twins!
Natalie predicted there would be more multiples.
Callum (top left and my favorite) - wiz kid, perfectionist Caris (top right) - artistic prodigy, loves the outdoors. These are the oldest two.
Cooper (bottom left) - rambunctious scamp, loner and Cael (bottom right) - social butterfly, protectionist
I think Cooper is a funny looking girl hehe and Cael has the infamous red hair. Caris looks so sweet, I'd choose her but think a boy should be heir next. Callum is my favorite out of the boys. Something about his eyes are different that the other kids throughout the family. Maybe he will look as awesome as Georgia @OJenn
Plus Callum can also do his homework with his eyes closed haha.
He's already met Pauline P at school too!!
In game family tree is looking good. The 3rd generation is huge, and this is before the last set of twins are born! I don't see the fourth getting as large, however it has already started.
@iamdun I am curious to know. Are you posting gameplay based on this Highlander Challenge? Or are you combining this with another one? No matter what I am enjoying your pictures and story.
@EuphorialQueen Thanks! I've been posting based on a challenge that I've combined with this one. Its called #rebuildnewcrest a genetics sort of challenge. I've taken the spotlight off of Ailani for a bit, but since he is going to be around for a while I decided that two challenges were better than one.
Bailey had been franticly trying to reach level 10 of the fitness skill. Her and Ailani's current aspirations depend on it! So she got a job, and even got a promotion.
Natalie has written one bestseller since becoming a ghost and moving back into the house.
Ailani enjoying some peace and quiet while the kids are in school.
Um, yes!
Callum and Pauline so cute.
Caris spends more time with her other siblings now that Callum has a really close friend.
She has become quite the sweetheart, although Vincent suspects her of cheating every time he plays a game with her.
Little Callum is a mama's boy and Bailey is eating it up.
Caris and Callum still found time to be mischievous!
The only person who would take on Callum and his antics in a game of Chess, was his uncle Blake the Spy. Who apparently died, along with Blair and Milo without anyone knowing.
Vincent adores spending time with the kids, and can often be found with the kids rallied around him.
He has actually been thinking about quitting work and being a full time dad.
Maybe then Bailey could really focus on her career while he makes sure the kids are ok.
Because lately Callum has been getting to be more and more mischievous everyday.
Callum is usually the ring leader, so he often gets into trouble!
Vincent has had to put his foot down in fear that Callum was headed nowhere fast, and Cael was beginning to follow.
Needless to say, Bailey also has been teaching him some valuable lessons.
Callum on the other hand, is having a ton of fun. Exhausted but happy.
His parents' concerns seem to be paying off though!
With so many people in the house I decided to focus on Callum since he already had more skills than the other kids...
What breakfast usually looks like if everyone all the kids make it to the table...
Vincent and Bailey were a little afraid when they realized...
They aren't quite sure what to expect.
Callum and the rest of the kids met their big sister Camdyn, from Bailey's previous marriage. Callum tired to "make her an enemy" but she was on to him. Camdyn wasn't impressed with her teenage siblings.
Next day, Callum and Caris' first day of high school. Callum was sent to an alternative school where the kids create their own schedule.
Callum, approved.
Guess who the first person Callum too a pic of on his smartphone at school?
Pauline, she was sent to the same school.
Callum went to one class, home ec. Then spent the rest of the day stalking Pauline.
Then spent the rest of the day stalking Pauline.
He got this moodlet from school.
And his grades went up!
Callum watching the clock.
Bailey completed her aspiration!
Just in time to age up!
And just as things were looking up, Callum starting skipping school.
Soon his grades grades were going down.
With so many people in the house, it would take a while for his parents to notice. So in the mean time, he continued to see Pauline.
@BUTTONSGINGER It's all good. Not to add to the load but here is another update!
Vincent planned a weekend trip, with Natalie's help, for just him and the kids.
Of course Pauline was invited too.
Pauline has a look on her face like she is just so into Callum.
He is definitely into her!
Cael got some one-on-one time with his dad, and he LOVED it.
Vincent sorta made a friend...
(remember read from bottom to top!)
The first thing Callum did was find a place to nap. Such a teenager!
Caris grabbed a book and got cozied up near the fire at some point.
The family kept this fire going most of the day!
Vincent's attempt to pull his oldest daughter Caris aside to talk about...boys.
Someone is getting older!
The next day, Bailey showed up to celebrate Vincent's birthday.
Vincent had breakfast twice that morning of you know what I mean.
After cake that afternoon, everyone found something to do with their day.
Caris did homework and extra credit autonomously.
Then went to play horseshoes in the sun.
Cooper found a nice place for some alone time. Loaner
Then headed off to go fishing, never to be seen again until dinner time!
And of course Callum and Pauline spent some time together.
Cael got permission and invited over his closet friend to come hang out. I think Cael has a crush. His name is Jaylen.
Later, Vincent and Bailey baked cakes. One for Cooper and one for Cael.
Just as Cael became a teen, Jaylen became an YA!! Cael STILL had his eye on him though!
When the vacation was over, everyone was refreshed and ready to start a new.
COOPER BAEHR
Cooper would age up and take her place in the Merriment Townhouse. Even though she became romantic like her father, she was still a loaner and a snob. She decided she'd never get married or have children. She would just enjoy her alone time, and the occasional social gathering with the family.
CAEL BAEHR
Cael would eventually marry Jaylen, and pursue his life as a Body Builder. With Bailey as his personal trainer and his perfectionist trait, he would surely be successful. He would still have a lot to learn though, being a glutton and all. Together, Cael and Jaylen would take their place in the Merriment Townhouse next door to his sisters.
Once Caris turned 18, she moved out. She met a really sweet professor who worked at a nearby college. Together they'd already been living in the Merriment Townhouse with their daughter and are now awaiting a new addition!
CARIS BAEHR COOPER
Landon Cooper Dari Baehr Cooper 4th Generation (1st)
Dari hanging with Jaylen at the townhouse!
Callum lives in the main house, where Natalie has returned to the nether world, Ailani is still kicking around and Bailey is planning to move into the original Highlander house with Vincent. Bailey also wants another child...
Pauline moved in to the Filter Manor (main house) to be with Callum. She happened to convince him to improve his high school grades, and he graduated with a B average. Callum is still evil and just as mischievous as ever. He has promised to cut back on the pranks and got a job in the computer tech industry. Callum still hasn't asked Pauline to marry him... oh and they are expecting!
I do not think I have ever seen that.
What do you think of the new long hairstyle for boys? The first time I saw it I thought the kid was a girl. It kind of grows on you after a while. I do think long hair for boys should also have a pulled back / ponytail style though.
@EuphorialQueen That was my first time seeing it too! I like the long hair styles for boys, I just think there should be more bangs to cover the large foreheads lol. A pulled back look would be fun too! Updates on Pauline and Ailani today!
Pauline was really excited about the new baby, but she didn't want any more children after this one. Especially since Callum seemed to be more interested in his pranks than her.
Knowing about Ailani's Highlander status, she asked him how to be sure she would have a girl this time. One of each gender should do.
Ailani hadn't started a strawberry plant yet, so he had her meet him at the strawberry bush he found near the water. He explained to her that she would have to eat a strawberry right away and listen to as much pop music as she could stand.
They picked the berries. She ate a few, and took a quick nap.
Ailani got a text from little Drake. He was looking for his mom.
When they got home, a very suspicious little Drake was playing on the monkey bars. Pauline convinced him to put on his pjs and get ready for bed. Drake put on his pjs, and got a little dancing in while mom wasn't looking. Kids pretending they aren't tired.
Callum was up late making prank phone calls. He had no idea what Pauline was up to. SMH
The next day, Camdyn came to visit. She met Pauline and Drake!
Later Drake tried to corner his mom to further investigate the night before.
When Pauline wouldn't budge, Drake invited his cousin Dari over to hang out.
Aww, they became BBFs!!!
Inseparable, these two.
Pauline had a visitor come by.. I guess she met him before she met Callum, they are just friends though!
A little afternoon of movies were setup before Drake is no longer the only child!
(Someone got some new stuff packs!)
Of course Drake thought the movie was boring.
Later on that weekend..
Mission accomplished Pauline and Ailani... no one will ever know.
Dari was jealous Drake got a little sister and she got a brother lol.
Pauline was looking for a friend... come on Callum. Step your game up!
Later on I found these two having some alone time! That's better.
Drake didn't care that there was new baby in the house.
Ailani has really enjoyed having his great grandkids around.
And the house is almost always full of family visiting. That's Blair's grand daughter (I forgot her name but it starts with a 'D' ) And apparently Dari wasn't the 1st of the 4th gen...oops lol.
Drake getting some time in with a new friend Mack Savard.. Sabrina's twin brother.
Time for Dylan's birthday!!!!
Dylan P. Baehr
Good
Rambunctious Scamp
Guess who else Drake met in school on Monday?
He just HAD to invite Sabrina and her brother over.
Another movie time happening here with Dylan, Dari and the other girl I forget her name. (But I think she is Ridge Everest's little sister! )
Such a house full of platinum blonds! Dylan hung out with the adults while Drake was in school.
(Drake)
I leave you with this cousin Usie of Drake and Dari.

Vincent is so cute!
Bailey married Vincent it was private but intimate.
Bailey thinks they even each other out! I agree. They are still going on dates even after the marriage!
Bailey and Vince had twins. And the entire family was excited. Even Caiden, who really seemed to miss his dad Neleesh.
Bailey is still evil.
Camdyn and Caiden are teens and went to live with their father.
Quick stuff.. not long at all this time! Promise!

Callum got a promotion. I guess he's starting to settle down a bit now that he is a dad.
Spoke too soon!
That's what you get Callum!
Poor Drake, he has a crazy dad. But at least he's loved!
Pauline has been finding refuge in her cooking, and is expecting baby number two. She and Callum still aren't married...
Drake finally aged up, and he was invited on his first play date with his cousin Dari at the Merriment Townhouses (I didn't know this was a thing).
Drake may be on his way to making a best friend!
As soon as the adults settled in, they all went to fuss over baby Denim.
Fire broke out, Landon was trying to cook dinner for everyone.
The kids still had a great time!
