Gryph had a wish to fish before 6am.
Zumi got Lycan up and ready for his last day as toddler.
This time Sam is giving Dean "the look"
While Dean cleared the dishes, Sam and Zumi flirted.
When Dean finished the dishes he headed for the board breaker. Sam went to read a book but I had him get his morning wish for a stroll out of the way so I could age Lycan up. I sent Zumi out to recycle the paper.
Zumi took her stroll when Sam got home.
Sam rolled a wish to make waffles after having them for breakfast. I let him do that while Zumi was out with Lycan.
Then it was time for Lycan to age up.
Not only did he get girl hair but he got a skirt as well
Much better! He is an adorable child
Like his brother, he wasn't excited on aging up.
I didn't take note of where Sam and Zumi were when I was aging Lycan up. I found them on the back deck ready to woohoo.
I sent Lycan out to talk with Uncle Dean.
I also bought a ball for Lycan. He and Dean played catch after their chat. Sam was shooting hoops after woohooing with Zumi. I had Zumi remove the old painting from the easel earlier and she started a new one.
Poor Lycan, although athletic, didn't appreciate his uncle's hard hitting throws!
I decided to spare Lycan from further pain and cancelled the game of catch. Dean rushed straight to Zumi!
They only exchanged a few flirts and Dean pulled out his guitar and Zumi went back to painting.
Lycan interrupted Sam's game to chat
The chat led to a game of catch where Lycan copped a beating from his dad as well! He rolled a wish to do an aerobic workout while playing. Like father, like son
After playing catch Sam went to the back deck to read. It seems to be his favourite reading spot. Zumi stopped painting and started flirting with Dean.
This time they didn't cut it short and went for the woohoo!
On her way to the bedroom with Dean, Zumi rolled a wish to chat with Lycan. I had her join him at the TV. When Gryph got home from school she rolled a wish to chat with him as well.
I had meant to have Zumi prepare some cheesesteak for the birthday boy but forgot. The only meal in the fridge with enough serves for everyone was mac and cheese.
The boys rolled friendship wishes for each other over dinner so I had them play tag
I saw Sam's face in the window when I was watching the boys play tag and when I zoomed in I found he was heading to the shower with Zumi
When the boys had finished playing tag, I saw Gryph heading to Sam. He wanted a pillow fight. I let them even though I had my doubts that it would end well after Sam and Dean's last pillow fight.
Totally ridiculous given Gryph is just a little kid and after Sam had nearly knocked his head off with his blow! Unless he hit him below the belt
Gryph then went out to talk with his dad. I can see he must have interrupted something
I had Lycan fish for a couple of hours because I love my sims to have fishing skill.
Gryph played in the treehouse after chatting with his dad
I waited for Dean to give "the look" but he didn't, so I settled for Zumi gazing at Sam.
Lycan wanted to chat with Zumi and Gryph wanted to Preside over his Royal Court. Sam went straight to the computer after breakfast and Dean got to clear the dishes.
Lycan had a wish locked in from the previous day to catch a goldfish. Dean woke with a general wish to fish. I had him keep Lycan company.
They both caught goldfish at the same time!
The boys look so serious on the school bus!
While Sam was playing on the computer and Dean was fishing, I had Zumi do the gardening. As soon as she finished she came in to flirt with Sam.
Sam went for woohoo just as Dean appeared in Zumi's queue for a flirt. Sam went ahead to the bed and Dean got his flirt
Dean just stood and watched helplessly as Zumi went to join Sam.
Sam went off to play chess when they were done and Dean didn't hesitate to take his chance!
They continued flirting for a long time after shower woohoo.
Then they went their separate ways. Zumi went to her painting and Dean to the board breaker.
When Zumi finished her painting she went to Sam.
The boys had no after school classes so were home early. While doing their homework, Lycan rolled a wish to play tag with Gryph. It's good they have each other
Sam and Zumi's flirting didn't last long and Sam went to do a TV work out.
Zumi was obviously wanting more because she went straight to Dean!
As Dean and Zumi were heading for the bedroom, Lycan came out to chat with his uncle but he missed his chance. Lycan: "Where are they going that's so important they can't stop to chat with me?"
Lycan had a wish to visit the local pool so I sent him with his brother. I didn't stay and watch them in case a baby was being made at home but I checked their thumbnails and they mostly dived or swam.
When Zumi and Dean were finished in the bedroom, Zumi tried to go to Sam but Dean stopped her with a wink.
As soon as Dean was done, Sam rushed in to make out with Zumi.
The flirting went on for a while but no woohoo was had.
When the boys got home from the pool, the family ate Lycan's favourite, cheesesteak. Better a day late than never
Lycan had a wish to read the baking report.
This triggered a wish to bake something.
Dean shot some hoops after dinner and didn't stop until I sent him to bed.
Zumi and Sam watched the stars.
I bought a sculpting station and they all rolled wishes to learn. I sent Zumi first.
Both boys had wishes to improve their logic skill so I had them keep each other company.
I'd forgotten how stressful weekends are with kids in the house! Maybe there is something to be said for boarding school!
The boys had wishes to play games: Gryph with Dean and Lycan with Zumi. This meant that Sam got to clear the dishes.
No-one had rolled a gardening wish but it had to be done so I sent Sam because the others were playing catch and he could use a little more gardening skill.
When I checked on the others, I could see Dean winding up for a vicious shot! Lycan had it much easier as Zumi only has one athletic skill point.
Gryph rolled a wish to catch a bug. I got the mod that unlocks some rewards and makes the collection helper available for purchase in buydebug.
I had Zumi continue work on her sculpture. Lycan had a fishing wish and Gryph a wish to dress up.
When Sam finished gardening he came to Zumi for a little flirt but soon lost interest and went off to read. Dean was quick to jump in
The flirting led to treehouse woohoo! The kids were playing catch nearby - shameless!
I sent the family to the bowling alley.
Because Sam was bowling autonomously, Zumi was able to interrupt. This townie girl came and chatted with Dean.
Dean's good with kids
Dean then went off to bowl and because Sam had been interrupted by Zumi and there were no available lanes he chose to heckle Dean instead.
Lycan and his uncle took a tumble at the same time! LOL
The family stayed at the bowling alley for several hours. Gryph took a tumble.
Then, not to be left out, Sam took a tumble
I saw Dean heading up the stairs where Zumi had been playing on one of the game tables.
This seems to be Dean's day! LOL
I couldn't find Sam and discovered that he had gone home.
I left the kids there and sent Dean and Zumi home. Zumi worked on her sculpting and the boys sparred.
She made a pedestal. Not sure if I really like the sculpting skill yet.
She rolled a wish to sculpt in wood and since the boys were still sparring I let her start.
When the boys finished sparring they went off to exercise some more!
When the boys got home they went straight to their dads to talk
Because the family had been out they ate the leftover cheesesteak from the previous day.
Lycan wanted to play a game with Gryph. Dean did the dishes as he was last to finish. I laughed when I saw him watching Sam with Zumi even though they were only talking.
Since both Zumi and Sam rolled wishes to watch the stars with each other over dinner, I intervened and let them have it.
After playing catch, the boys played in the treehouse together. When it was time for bed I had them sleep there
Dean is very close to mastering the guitar skill
I can't remember what Zumi was doing but Sam and Dean chatted for a while.
The boys made it throught the night in the treehouse Most of the morning wishes were to talk with or play games with other family members.
I sent Dean to do the gardening while Zumi played catch with Gryph.
Lycan changed into costume autonomously
I had Sam prepare some pancakes for the next day. The pancakes were perfect quality so I don't know why he was carrying on as if they were burning!
Zumi did some more work on her sculpture.
I saw the boys hugging ... cute
Sam and Gryph complained about video games and enthused about comic books together.
Zumi's sculpture is coming along nicely
I saw Gryph and Sam heading indoors. I missed the start of the pillow fight but it ended well.
When Zumi finished her sculpture she went to Dean for a friendly hug. He followed up with a funny story.
Lycan had a wish to play catch with his dad. I might play a family of weaklings next time around
When Dean got to level 9 in the guitar skill he rolled a wish to play in front of 6 sims. I have had the wish locked in a couple of days and when I found a busy community lot, I sent Dean to get his wish.
Since the kids were happily doing their own thing at home, I sent Zumi and Sam to the Red Rendezvous as well. Sam went straight to the TV and Dean boasted about his good looks to Zumi.
When Zumi started flirting with Dean, Sam came straight over and kissed her.
I checked back on the kids and they were both in costume and playing in the treehouse
After watching the kids playing I went back and found Zumi dancing with a stranger. I think it's the same sim that bought Gryph's first muffin.
Sam found the bookshelf and started reading. This monstrosity came over and chatted with Dean. She must have had to go somewhere because she left immediately after this pic.
Zumi and the stranger shared a joke.
The kids had played most of the day so it was time for some skilling. They both have logic skilling wishes locked in.
Zumi was preparing fish and chips and I found the boys talking about sculpting.
Zumi was thrilled to eat her favourite meal for the first time in this save
Dean had been breaking boards, Sam playing basketball and the kids, chess but they made it to the table before Zumi had finished.
Zumi and Dean chatted while Sam did the dishes.
Lycan came over to complain about video games.
Gryph also came to chat with his dad so Zumi went to Sam for a flirt.
"If my brother comes over I'm gonna punch him right in the kisser!"
Dean came over immediately after Sam's athletic idle and went straight for the woohoo!
Sam managed to sneak in a kiss before Zumi joined Dean in the bedroom.
The weekend is over and I am looking forward to the kids going to school. They also have Scouts which means they won't be home until after 5
Lycan had a wish to play with a toy so I made sure it was a toy that would help with his future skills
After eating the pancakes at breakfast, Dean rolled a wish to make some. Done!
Sam had a wish to fish and Zumi a wish to play a game with Gryph. Done and done!
The pancakes must have been off
Once the kids had gone to school and the gardening had been done, I sent Zumi and the big boys to the bowling alley.
It didn't take long for other sims to show up and most of them ended up in Dean's queue! First to reach Dean was Shark Racket. I understand that he starts out as a teen but he must have grown up while I was playing. I haven't been looking at any of the birthday sims so excuse any funny outfits you might see
Lolly (I think that's her name) flirted with Dean from across the room. When I saw "wink" in Dean's queue I was yelling out "NOOOOOO". He turned and looked at me as if to say "Watch me!"
I am pretty sure I have seen simmers raving about how cute Shark is so I had a closer look. I think he is cute and what I see when I look at him is the potential to make a very good Mark Harmon with the right tweaks.
Another sim came to Dean for a chat.
Zumi had gone downstairs to bowl but didn't get far into her game
When she came back upstairs she chatted with Shark. He flirted and she knocked him back but she followed up with a flirt of her own!
Sam was playing pool so I sent Dean to join him. I would rather have left him to his own devices but everyone was bothering him so much he wasn't having any fun
Sam sizes up his competition
I might have got a little carried away with taking pics of the boys playing pool but they looked so darned cute
When Zumi tried to leave the bowling alley on her own, I sent them all home. Zumi had a wish to eat mac and cheese so I had her prepare some. The boys chose athletic activities of course
The boys both rolled wishes to play tag with each other while doing their homework
Zumi had nearly finished her meal by the time everyone came inside.
She didn't leave the table, though, and sat and watched her kids eat
Gryph had a wish to catch a bug.
When I checked back on the house after finding a bug for Gryph, I found Dean and Zumi flirting.
Gryph was trying to talk to his dad and Sam took his chance to go for woohoo!
Somehow Lycan got in before Gryph had a chance.
After woohoo, Sam and Zumi watched the stars but only for a moment ....
because Zumi wasn't feeling too well
and got her notice
Zumi woke with a craving for pancakes. I was hoping she wouldn't wake with a craving because she hasn't been doing much cooking in this save although she is a natural cook. I would have accommodated a craving for something else but this was perfect since they had pancakes in the fridge
I always pause when I look around to see what everyone is up to. I have noticed the animations are sometimes a little whacky when this happens, like water up in the air when sims are watering plants. It seems that the weeding animation doesn't like being paused either
Gryph woke with a wish to dress up Lycan played chess because he was still working on his skilling wish.
Sam was recycling the paper and Zumi disposing of a dead plant. They stopped and flirted at the trash can
When Dean finished gardening he came straight to Zumi for woohoo! Sam wandered off with a book.
When I saw Zumi and Dean heading for the treehouse, I sent Sam to the swamp to catch a bug as per his waking wish.
The inevitable wishes to read pregnancy books were rolled so I sent them to the Library.
While reading, Zumi rolled a wish to spend §400 at the spa. You can see her running to the spa across the street while the boys chatted.
While chatting, Sam rolled a wish to mind meld with Dean. Since Zumi wasn't there, I let him have his wish.
I sent the boys home and of course they exercised.
When Zumi got home from the spa she flirted a little with Dean but when Sam joined them they all joked and chatted together.
When Zumi went off to paint the boys continued without her
Since Zumi was busy, I had the boys spar because I figured they might like an excuse to hit each other
The boys got home late because of Scouts and did their homework together.
Zumi had no cravings so they finished off the fish and chips.
I thought I saw a little concern in Dean's eyes when checking out his brother's biceps
Sam and Zumi watched the stars while Dean shot some hoops.
Gryph had come home from school with a wish to go for a joyride but didn't get a chance until after dinner. Lycan had a wish to become good friends with a girl at school so I had him call her to get the friendship level up a little.
Sam and Zumi didn't get much of an opportunity to flirt because Gryph joined them for a chat after his joyride.
Dean and Lycan soon joined in. Since the back deck is so dark, I added some buydebug wall lighting for the next couple pics
I love the way Dean was looking at Zumi
I saw Dean and Gryph head inside. The pillow fight ended well
Sam took advantage of Dean being out of the picture and woohooed with Zumi
Zumi had no cravings so the family ate French toast for breakfast.
Gryph and Lycan had wishes to play tag with each other
Sam had a wish to practice MA, probably stemming from his loss to Dean the previous day
Zumi did the gardening. Because there are only a few plants and she has mastered the skill, it took her next to no time.
Dean woke with a wish to find some seeds. There's a spawner across the street.
When Zumi finished gardening, she flirted with Sam
When Dean got back from collecting a seed he joined in to tell a funny story.
Sam took out a book and wandered off. Zumi looks a little frustrated
She then "Got to know" Dean. I'm pretty sure she knows everything there is to know by now
Dean followed up with a wink
The boys had a field trip to the Science Facility. Max Racket was in charge.
I sent Zumi and the boys to The Red Rendezvous because I could see there were several sims there.
Zumi rolled a wish to learn the fishing skill and Sam one to learn the painting skill so I sent them home.
While Zumi fished and Sam painted, Dean worked on his wish to master the guitar skill
When Zumi had got a few fishing wishes under her belt she went straight to Sam for woohoo. Dean appeared in her queue but he was to slow and went off to break boards.
The boys got home early because of the field trip.
After woohooing, Zumi went to play computer games and was there when the boys got home from school. Gryph rolled a wish to chat with her on seeing her.
Zumi had a wish to play a game with Lycan.
She looked so cute I had to zoom in
Gryph played in the treehouse
Zumi was craving key lime pie so they all ate it
While Gryph was chatting with Zumi she told him to feel her belly. I thought only FO sims did this.
The sound of children screaming when a sim goes into labor is piercing!
Welcome Cerberus
I sent Dean in to snuggle his new son
Because Cerberus was born so late, I will age him up in the morning. Zumi had to get up in the middle of the night to feed and comfort him. One of the reasons I don't do babies is because toddlers will sleep all night if kept on a tight schedule.
Poor Dean has to sleep in the kids' room I will be saving the family to the library soon as I think my game is sufficiently stable with the addition of Ambitions to revisit one of my older families. This has been a fun save, but was never meant to be long term.
Because of the middle of the night feeding, Zumi only had to fill Cerberus' social needs before joining the family for breakfast.
Dean woke with wish to weed - he got to do the whole garden since there are only 3 plants.
Sam is still working on his wish to skill up in MA. He also rolled a wish to practise on waking.
The boys woke with wishes to get attention from Zumi which were fulfilled over breakfast. After they had eaten I was happy to see them heading to the see-saw together
I had Zumi put Cerberus in the middle of the living room so I could age him up and sent her to the back deck to take a completed painting from the easel. She photobombed on her way to "get to know" Dean just as Cerberus aged up.
He's a cutie! Unfortunately he inherited Zumi's weight slider and will be rather heavy when he grows up.
Before Zumi could get to Dean, Sam came in and flirted with her.
It didn't take long for Dean to join the conversation to boast about his good looks! Sam: "I can't believe she's falling for this!"
She fell for it hook, line and sinker and went straight for the woohoo!
When she emerged from the bedroom I had her teach Cerberus how to talk.
Since Zumi was busy with Cerberus, I had the boys spar.
Dean won When they were done, Sam was close to leveling up and losing triggered a wish to practise some more
Cerberus needed to go potty so I had Zumi start on his potty training.
After emptying the potty chair, Zumi came out to chat with Dean. You can see Sam got his wish to level up
When Zumi and Dean were done chatting, I sent Dean to teach Cerberus how to walk since he had rolled a wish to do so.
Sam took advantage of Dean being busy
When Sam and Zumi were done, Sam pulled out a book and read on the bed and Zumi came out to paint.
After teaching Cerberus how to walk, Dean went inside to jam. He mastered the guitar skill
He came out to wink at Zumi just as Sam grabbed her to make out
The boys got home late because of Scouts. Dean had received an invitation to a party earlier in the day and both boys rolled wishes to attend. I made sure their homework was done before dinner.
Happy family scene
I let Dean take a quick stroll before dinner was ready.
Gryph had a wish to preside over royal court and I got him started but had to stop him short when Dean got the text to go the party.
The host was Rich Whelohff - someone had fun making up the names for the Twinbrook residents Gryph introduced himself while Dean prepared a cheese plate.
I forgot to take a pic of Lycan meeting Rich but he did. I then sent the boys home because it was a school night. When Dean had finished preparing the cheese plate he came out and chatted with Rich.
He also met this woman whose name I didn't bother taking note of.
Back at home, Cerberus need to go potty again.
When Dean got home from the party he interrupted Zumi and Sam's flirt session.
Surprisingly he didn't flirt and mostly talked with Sam.
Sam, on the other hand, was happy to take his earlier flirting further Cerberus was getting tired so I had Dean take care of him. Unfortunately I didn't realize that Sam and Zumi were heading to their own bed until he was on his way!
I will play this save until Cerberus is a child then will save the family to the library for possible future play. Zumi got Cerberus up and ready for the day.
She got to the table in time to fulfill her morning wish to talk with Gryph over breakfast.
Zumi had a wish to serve a perfect meal so I had her cook more pancakes for the fridge. Dean took the first stroll while Sam checked the mail.
The first time I sold gems from an inventory while the game was paused I was confused when I saw the gems on the ground even though the money had definitely been added to the family funds. I soon realized that they vanished as soon as I unpaused the game but I did find it humorous when I saw the skill certificates hanging in mid air after I had sold them as I hadn't noticed that before. It was doubly funny when I was lining up the picture and saw that Dean was having stroller problems
I saw a child fishing in the family pond and sent Lycan out to talk with him. The only interactions available were to greet (which I didn't want as they hang around once greeted), invite him in or show off the salute. I chose the salute. When I checked back on them, I discovered the boy was mean spirited I had Lycan come back with a friendly interaction (now available), deleted the nasty moodlets and sent the boy on his way.
When Zumi finished cooking Sam appeared in her queue for woohoo.
When Dean came home from his stroll, he finished Cerberus' potty training.
Sam and Zumi were at it in the other room
I had Sam do the gardening so that Zumi could take Cerberus for a stroll.
The boys had a field trip to the Mausoleum.
While Zumi was on her stroll, Dean went to the board breaker. When Sam finished gardening he chatted with Dean for a while then went to shoot some hoops while Dean played his guitar.
I realized that Zumi had an unfinished painting so I sent her to finish it. When I save the family to the library I would like it to be in her inventory as I won't be saving the house. Sam played computer games and I had Dean play with Cerberus.
The kids got home early because of the field trip.
When Zumi finished her painting, Dean came out and told her a funny story.
She followed up with "get to know" and I thought maybe they were stuck in the friend zone but Dean came back with a blown kiss
Zumi tried valiantly to resist Dean's charms and came back with a friendly hug but Dean was determined and went for woohoo
Lycan and Sam had wishes to play a game with each other
Gryph played as a dinosaur for a while before dinner
When Cerberus toddled out to the block table, I had his brothers join him. Gryph and Lycan maxed their block table skills while playing
After the dishes were cleared, Dean grabbed Zumi for more woohoo but Sam was already in her queue.
Dean must have waited in the shower for Zumi because he came back with a clean moodlet. Sam planned that one well!
Dean looked defeated
Then he looked angry!
He still had an angry face when Sam turned to him and I wondered what the next interaction would be.
Silly Dean! LOL
Sam won this round and watched the stars with Zumi.
Because the kids had maxed the block table skill, I cancelled the action. Lycan went inside and interrupted Uncle Dean's jam session to gossip. "Mum and dad are watching the stars and holding hands."
"I know and it should have been me!"
Sam and Zumi continued to flirt after watching the stars.
A couple of hours after the family had gone to bed, a burglar came. She was very thin and extremely ugly from what I could see.
Dean, being brave, went out to fight her. Stoopid stars!
And won
The cop took his sweet time getting there!
The family got §500 for apprehending the burglar.
The household went on as usual after the previous night's attempted burglary. Zumi got Cerberus up and ready for the day. He has one more day as a toddler and then I will go back to my save with Zumi and Eddy or my Beau and Lotta save.
There were many wishes to talk to other family members but they were not fulfilled over breakfast so I made the family sit until they were!
Sam found Zumi on the back deck and came out and told her a funny story.
When it didn't look their conversation was going to get romantic, I sent Zumi on her morning stroll with Cerberus.
Dean had a wish to play a game with Gryph.
When Zumi got back from her stroll she went straight for Sam for woohoo!
While they were busy I sent the rest of the family bowling.
I bought a dollhouse for the bowling alley and had Zumi and Sam join the others when they were done.
Dean took the first tumble!
To add insult to injury he had a bad shot
When Dean had finished his game I had him toss Cerberus in the air because he rolled a wish to do so as soon as Cerberus arrived.
While I was concentrating on Dean and Cerberus I heard Zumi yelp and turned the camera in time to see she had face planted!
It didn't take long for sims to come to Dean once he was done with Cerberus.
When this sim failed to mooch money from Dean, he came over and flirted with Zumi I was relieved when she knocked him back!
I saw from Sam's thumbnail that he was watching TV but I couldn't find him watching TV at the bowling alley. He must have snuck home when I wasn't looking.
When I saw Lycan trying to head home as well, I sent the whole family home. Zumi, Lycan and Dean chatted in the kitchen. I hope Zumi is talking about food!
Gryph and Sam headed to the bedroom for a pillow fight.
Whoa there, Sam!
Fortunately it ended well
Lycan and Zumi had a game of catch. Zumi leveled up to 3 in the athletic skill while playing. The kids used to have it easy with her but no more it would seem
After their game, Zumi and Lycan both headed to Dean for a chat. Romance is not easy when the kids don't have school
I realized no-one had tended the garden, so I had Sam take care of it. He reached level 5
When I checked on Dean, I found him hugging Lycan. Zumi must have given up any hope of romance and wandered off
The family had falafel for dinner. Sam and Dean both rolled wishes to learn the recipe but will need to get their cooking skill up first.
As a mother, this made me cringe. I used to watch my son like a hawk when he was a child and played on a friend's trampoline!
Sam and Zumi watched the stars.
Dean had been breaking boards but came in to tickle Cerberus. He's such a good daddy!
I was surprised that Dean didn't join in the flirting.
Instead, I saw him heading outside to ask Gryph for a pillow fight
Watch out! Toddler coming through!
Another pillow fight that ended well
When Zumi had put Cerberus in his crib, she joined Gryph and Dean to "get to know" Dean a little more I need to get rid of that interaction with Retuner!
I think the last update of yours I had read before was the one where Lycan aged up to child - I remember thinking he looked like a pretty little girl! Congratulations on Cerberus - I think he might be the cutest of the kids!
I loved all of the pictures where the children were wearing dinosaur costumes while playing in the treehouse or at the block table. They looked so cute and funny.
Before you stop playing this save, are you going to take the kids to CAS to see what they will look when they grow up? I would be so curious in your place!
Comments
Zumi got Lycan up and ready for his last day as toddler.
This time Sam is giving Dean "the look"
While Dean cleared the dishes, Sam and Zumi flirted.
When Dean finished the dishes he headed for the board breaker. Sam went to read a book but I had him get his morning wish for a stroll out of the way so I could age Lycan up. I sent Zumi out to recycle the paper.
Zumi took her stroll when Sam got home.
Sam rolled a wish to make waffles after having them for breakfast. I let him do that while Zumi was out with Lycan.
Then it was time for Lycan to age up.
Not only did he get girl hair but he got a skirt as well
Much better! He is an adorable child
Like his brother, he wasn't excited on aging up.
I didn't take note of where Sam and Zumi were when I was aging Lycan up. I found them on the back deck ready to woohoo.
I sent Lycan out to talk with Uncle Dean.
I also bought a ball for Lycan. He and Dean played catch after their chat. Sam was shooting hoops after woohooing with Zumi. I had Zumi remove the old painting from the easel earlier and she started a new one.
Poor Lycan, although athletic, didn't appreciate his uncle's hard hitting throws!
I decided to spare Lycan from further pain and cancelled the game of catch. Dean rushed straight to Zumi!
They only exchanged a few flirts and Dean pulled out his guitar and Zumi went back to painting.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
The chat led to a game of catch where Lycan copped a beating from his dad as well! He rolled a wish to do an aerobic workout while playing. Like father, like son
After playing catch Sam went to the back deck to read. It seems to be his favourite reading spot. Zumi stopped painting and started flirting with Dean.
This time they didn't cut it short and went for the woohoo!
On her way to the bedroom with Dean, Zumi rolled a wish to chat with Lycan. I had her join him at the TV. When Gryph got home from school she rolled a wish to chat with him as well.
I had meant to have Zumi prepare some cheesesteak for the birthday boy but forgot. The only meal in the fridge with enough serves for everyone was mac and cheese.
The boys rolled friendship wishes for each other over dinner so I had them play tag
I saw Sam's face in the window when I was watching the boys play tag and when I zoomed in I found he was heading to the shower with Zumi
When the boys had finished playing tag, I saw Gryph heading to Sam. He wanted a pillow fight. I let them even though I had my doubts that it would end well after Sam and Dean's last pillow fight.
Totally ridiculous given Gryph is just a little kid and after Sam had nearly knocked his head off with his blow! Unless he hit him below the belt
Gryph then went out to talk with his dad. I can see he must have interrupted something
I had Lycan fish for a couple of hours because I love my sims to have fishing skill.
Gryph played in the treehouse after chatting with his dad
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Lycan wanted to chat with Zumi and Gryph wanted to Preside over his Royal Court. Sam went straight to the computer after breakfast and Dean got to clear the dishes.
Lycan had a wish locked in from the previous day to catch a goldfish. Dean woke with a general wish to fish. I had him keep Lycan company.
They both caught goldfish at the same time!
The boys look so serious on the school bus!
While Sam was playing on the computer and Dean was fishing, I had Zumi do the gardening. As soon as she finished she came in to flirt with Sam.
Sam went for woohoo just as Dean appeared in Zumi's queue for a flirt. Sam went ahead to the bed and Dean got his flirt
Dean just stood and watched helplessly as Zumi went to join Sam.
Sam went off to play chess when they were done and Dean didn't hesitate to take his chance!
They continued flirting for a long time after shower woohoo.
Then they went their separate ways. Zumi went to her painting and Dean to the board breaker.
When Zumi finished her painting she went to Sam.
The boys had no after school classes so were home early. While doing their homework, Lycan rolled a wish to play tag with Gryph. It's good they have each other
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Zumi was obviously wanting more because she went straight to Dean!
As Dean and Zumi were heading for the bedroom, Lycan came out to chat with his uncle but he missed his chance. Lycan: "Where are they going that's so important they can't stop to chat with me?"
Lycan had a wish to visit the local pool so I sent him with his brother. I didn't stay and watch them in case a baby was being made at home but I checked their thumbnails and they mostly dived or swam.
When Zumi and Dean were finished in the bedroom, Zumi tried to go to Sam but Dean stopped her with a wink.
As soon as Dean was done, Sam rushed in to make out with Zumi.
The flirting went on for a while but no woohoo was had.
When the boys got home from the pool, the family ate Lycan's favourite, cheesesteak. Better a day late than never
Lycan had a wish to read the baking report.
This triggered a wish to bake something.
Dean shot some hoops after dinner and didn't stop until I sent him to bed.
Zumi and Sam watched the stars.
I bought a sculpting station and they all rolled wishes to learn. I sent Zumi first.
Both boys had wishes to improve their logic skill so I had them keep each other company.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
The boys had wishes to play games: Gryph with Dean and Lycan with Zumi. This meant that Sam got to clear the dishes.
No-one had rolled a gardening wish but it had to be done so I sent Sam because the others were playing catch and he could use a little more gardening skill.
When I checked on the others, I could see Dean winding up for a vicious shot!
Gryph rolled a wish to catch a bug. I got the mod that unlocks some rewards and makes the collection helper available for purchase in buydebug.
I had Zumi continue work on her sculpture. Lycan had a fishing wish and Gryph a wish to dress up.
When Sam finished gardening he came to Zumi for a little flirt but soon lost interest and went off to read. Dean was quick to jump in
The flirting led to treehouse woohoo! The kids were playing catch nearby - shameless!
I sent the family to the bowling alley.
Because Sam was bowling autonomously, Zumi was able to interrupt. This townie girl came and chatted with Dean.
Dean's good with kids
Dean then went off to bowl and because Sam had been interrupted by Zumi and there were no available lanes he chose to heckle Dean instead.
Lycan and his uncle took a tumble at the same time! LOL
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Then, not to be left out, Sam took a tumble
I saw Dean heading up the stairs where Zumi had been playing on one of the game tables.
This seems to be Dean's day! LOL
I couldn't find Sam and discovered that he had gone home.
I left the kids there and sent Dean and Zumi home. Zumi worked on her sculpting and the boys sparred.
She made a pedestal. Not sure if I really like the sculpting skill yet.
She rolled a wish to sculpt in wood and since the boys were still sparring I let her start.
When the boys finished sparring they went off to exercise some more!
When the boys got home they went straight to their dads to talk
Because the family had been out they ate the leftover cheesesteak from the previous day.
Lycan wanted to play a game with Gryph. Dean did the dishes as he was last to finish. I laughed when I saw him watching Sam with Zumi even though they were only talking.
Since both Zumi and Sam rolled wishes to watch the stars with each other over dinner, I intervened and let them have it.
After playing catch, the boys played in the treehouse together. When it was time for bed I had them sleep there
Dean is very close to mastering the guitar skill
I can't remember what Zumi was doing but Sam and Dean chatted for a while.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
I sent Dean to do the gardening while Zumi played catch with Gryph.
Lycan changed into costume autonomously
I had Sam prepare some pancakes for the next day. The pancakes were perfect quality so I don't know why he was carrying on as if they were burning!
Zumi did some more work on her sculpture.
I saw the boys hugging ... cute
Sam and Gryph complained about video games and enthused about comic books together.
Zumi's sculpture is coming along nicely
I saw Gryph and Sam heading indoors. I missed the start of the pillow fight but it ended well.
When Zumi finished her sculpture she went to Dean for a friendly hug. He followed up with a funny story.
Lycan had a wish to play catch with his dad. I might play a family of weaklings next time around
When Dean got to level 9 in the guitar skill he rolled a wish to play in front of 6 sims. I have had the wish locked in a couple of days and when I found a busy community lot, I sent Dean to get his wish.
Since the kids were happily doing their own thing at home, I sent Zumi and Sam to the Red Rendezvous as well. Sam went straight to the TV and Dean boasted about his good looks to Zumi.
When Zumi started flirting with Dean, Sam came straight over and kissed her.
I checked back on the kids and they were both in costume and playing in the treehouse
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Sam found the bookshelf and started reading. This monstrosity came over and chatted with Dean. She must have had to go somewhere because she left immediately after this pic.
Zumi and the stranger shared a joke.
The kids had played most of the day so it was time for some skilling. They both have logic skilling wishes locked in.
Zumi was preparing fish and chips and I found the boys talking about sculpting.
Zumi was thrilled to eat her favourite meal for the first time in this save
Dean had been breaking boards, Sam playing basketball and the kids, chess but they made it to the table before Zumi had finished.
Zumi and Dean chatted while Sam did the dishes.
Lycan came over to complain about video games.
Gryph also came to chat with his dad so Zumi went to Sam for a flirt.
"If my brother comes over I'm gonna punch him right in the kisser!"
Dean came over immediately after Sam's athletic idle and went straight for the woohoo!
Sam managed to sneak in a kiss before Zumi joined Dean in the bedroom.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Lycan had a wish to play with a toy so I made sure it was a toy that would help with his future skills
After eating the pancakes at breakfast, Dean rolled a wish to make some. Done!
Sam had a wish to fish and Zumi a wish to play a game with Gryph. Done and done!
The pancakes must have been off
Once the kids had gone to school and the gardening had been done, I sent Zumi and the big boys to the bowling alley.
It didn't take long for other sims to show up and most of them ended up in Dean's queue! First to reach Dean was Shark Racket. I understand that he starts out as a teen but he must have grown up while I was playing. I haven't been looking at any of the birthday sims so excuse any funny outfits you might see
Lolly (I think that's her name) flirted with Dean from across the room. When I saw "wink" in Dean's queue I was yelling out "NOOOOOO". He turned and looked at me as if to say "Watch me!"
I am pretty sure I have seen simmers raving about how cute Shark is so I had a closer look. I think he is cute and what I see when I look at him is the potential to make a very good Mark Harmon with the right tweaks.
Another sim came to Dean for a chat.
Zumi had gone downstairs to bowl but didn't get far into her game
When she came back upstairs she chatted with Shark. He flirted and she knocked him back but she followed up with a flirt of her own!
Sam was playing pool so I sent Dean to join him. I would rather have left him to his own devices but everyone was bothering him so much he wasn't having any fun
Sam sizes up his competition
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
When Zumi tried to leave the bowling alley on her own, I sent them all home. Zumi had a wish to eat mac and cheese so I had her prepare some. The boys chose athletic activities of course
The boys both rolled wishes to play tag with each other while doing their homework
Zumi had nearly finished her meal by the time everyone came inside.
She didn't leave the table, though, and sat and watched her kids eat
Gryph had a wish to catch a bug.
When I checked back on the house after finding a bug for Gryph, I found Dean and Zumi flirting.
Gryph was trying to talk to his dad and Sam took his chance to go for woohoo!
Somehow Lycan got in before Gryph had a chance.
After woohoo, Sam and Zumi watched the stars but only for a moment ....
because Zumi wasn't feeling too well
and got her notice
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
I always pause when I look around to see what everyone is up to. I have noticed the animations are sometimes a little whacky when this happens, like water up in the air when sims are watering plants. It seems that the weeding animation doesn't like being paused either
Gryph woke with a wish to dress up
Sam was recycling the paper and Zumi disposing of a dead plant. They stopped and flirted at the trash can
When Dean finished gardening he came straight to Zumi for woohoo! Sam wandered off with a book.
When I saw Zumi and Dean heading for the treehouse, I sent Sam to the swamp to catch a bug as per his waking wish.
The inevitable wishes to read pregnancy books were rolled so I sent them to the Library.
While reading, Zumi rolled a wish to spend §400 at the spa. You can see her running to the spa across the street while the boys chatted.
While chatting, Sam rolled a wish to mind meld with Dean. Since Zumi wasn't there, I let him have his wish.
I sent the boys home and of course they exercised.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
When Zumi went off to paint the boys continued without her
Since Zumi was busy, I had the boys spar because I figured they might like an excuse to hit each other
The boys got home late because of Scouts and did their homework together.
Zumi had no cravings so they finished off the fish and chips.
I thought I saw a little concern in Dean's eyes when checking out his brother's biceps
Sam and Zumi watched the stars while Dean shot some hoops.
Gryph had come home from school with a wish to go for a joyride but didn't get a chance until after dinner. Lycan had a wish to become good friends with a girl at school so I had him call her to get the friendship level up a little.
Sam and Zumi didn't get much of an opportunity to flirt because Gryph joined them for a chat after his joyride.
Dean and Lycan soon joined in. Since the back deck is so dark, I added some buydebug wall lighting for the next couple pics
I love the way Dean was looking at Zumi
I saw Dean and Gryph head inside. The pillow fight ended well
Sam took advantage of Dean being out of the picture and woohooed with Zumi
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Gryph and Lycan had wishes to play tag with each other
Sam had a wish to practice MA, probably stemming from his loss to Dean the previous day
Zumi did the gardening. Because there are only a few plants and she has mastered the skill, it took her next to no time.
Dean woke with a wish to find some seeds. There's a spawner across the street.
When Zumi finished gardening, she flirted with Sam
When Dean got back from collecting a seed he joined in to tell a funny story.
Sam took out a book and wandered off. Zumi looks a little frustrated
She then "Got to know" Dean. I'm pretty sure she knows everything there is to know by now
Dean followed up with a wink
The boys had a field trip to the Science Facility. Max Racket was in charge.
I sent Zumi and the boys to The Red Rendezvous because I could see there were several sims there.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
While Zumi fished and Sam painted, Dean worked on his wish to master the guitar skill
When Zumi had got a few fishing wishes under her belt she went straight to Sam for woohoo. Dean appeared in her queue but he was to slow and went off to break boards.
The boys got home early because of the field trip.
After woohooing, Zumi went to play computer games and was there when the boys got home from school. Gryph rolled a wish to chat with her on seeing her.
Zumi had a wish to play a game with Lycan.
She looked so cute I had to zoom in
Gryph played in the treehouse
Zumi was craving key lime pie so they all ate it
While Gryph was chatting with Zumi she told him to feel her belly. I thought only FO sims did this.
The sound of children screaming when a sim goes into labor is piercing!
Welcome Cerberus
I sent Dean in to snuggle his new son
Because Cerberus was born so late, I will age him up in the morning. Zumi had to get up in the middle of the night to feed and comfort him. One of the reasons I don't do babies is because toddlers will sleep all night if kept on a tight schedule.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Because of the middle of the night feeding, Zumi only had to fill Cerberus' social needs before joining the family for breakfast.
Dean woke with wish to weed - he got to do the whole garden since there are only 3 plants.
Sam is still working on his wish to skill up in MA. He also rolled a wish to practise on waking.
The boys woke with wishes to get attention from Zumi which were fulfilled over breakfast. After they had eaten I was happy to see them heading to the see-saw together
I had Zumi put Cerberus in the middle of the living room so I could age him up and sent her to the back deck to take a completed painting from the easel. She photobombed on her way to "get to know" Dean just as Cerberus aged up.
He's a cutie! Unfortunately he inherited Zumi's weight slider and will be rather heavy when he grows up.
Before Zumi could get to Dean, Sam came in and flirted with her.
It didn't take long for Dean to join the conversation to boast about his good looks!
She fell for it hook, line and sinker and went straight for the woohoo!
When she emerged from the bedroom I had her teach Cerberus how to talk.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Dean won
Cerberus needed to go potty so I had Zumi start on his potty training.
After emptying the potty chair, Zumi came out to chat with Dean. You can see Sam got his wish to level up
When Zumi and Dean were done chatting, I sent Dean to teach Cerberus how to walk since he had rolled a wish to do so.
Sam took advantage of Dean being busy
When Sam and Zumi were done, Sam pulled out a book and read on the bed and Zumi came out to paint.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
He came out to wink at Zumi just as Sam grabbed her to make out
The boys got home late because of Scouts. Dean had received an invitation to a party earlier in the day and both boys rolled wishes to attend. I made sure their homework was done before dinner.
Happy family scene
I let Dean take a quick stroll before dinner was ready.
Gryph had a wish to preside over royal court and I got him started but had to stop him short when Dean got the text to go the party.
The host was Rich Whelohff - someone had fun making up the names for the Twinbrook residents
I forgot to take a pic of Lycan meeting Rich but he did. I then sent the boys home because it was a school night. When Dean had finished preparing the cheese plate he came out and chatted with Rich.
He also met this woman whose name I didn't bother taking note of.
Back at home, Cerberus need to go potty again.
When Dean got home from the party he interrupted Zumi and Sam's flirt session.
Surprisingly he didn't flirt and mostly talked with Sam.
Sam, on the other hand, was happy to take his earlier flirting further
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
She got to the table in time to fulfill her morning wish to talk with Gryph over breakfast.
Zumi had a wish to serve a perfect meal so I had her cook more pancakes for the fridge. Dean took the first stroll while Sam checked the mail.
The first time I sold gems from an inventory while the game was paused I was confused when I saw the gems on the ground even though the money had definitely been added to the family funds. I soon realized that they vanished as soon as I unpaused the game but I did find it humorous when I saw the skill certificates hanging in mid air after I had sold them as I hadn't noticed that before. It was doubly funny when I was lining up the picture and saw that Dean was having stroller problems
I saw a child fishing in the family pond and sent Lycan out to talk with him. The only interactions available were to greet (which I didn't want as they hang around once greeted), invite him in or show off the salute. I chose the salute. When I checked back on them, I discovered the boy was mean spirited
When Zumi finished cooking Sam appeared in her queue for woohoo.
When Dean came home from his stroll, he finished Cerberus' potty training.
Sam and Zumi were at it in the other room
I had Sam do the gardening so that Zumi could take Cerberus for a stroll.
The boys had a field trip to the Mausoleum.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
I realized that Zumi had an unfinished painting so I sent her to finish it. When I save the family to the library I would like it to be in her inventory as I won't be saving the house. Sam played computer games and I had Dean play with Cerberus.
The kids got home early because of the field trip.
When Zumi finished her painting, Dean came out and told her a funny story.
She followed up with "get to know" and I thought maybe they were stuck in the friend zone but Dean came back with a blown kiss
Zumi tried valiantly to resist Dean's charms and came back with a friendly hug but Dean was determined and went for woohoo
Lycan and Sam had wishes to play a game with each other
Gryph played as a dinosaur for a while before dinner
When Cerberus toddled out to the block table, I had his brothers join him. Gryph and Lycan maxed their block table skills while playing
After the dishes were cleared, Dean grabbed Zumi for more woohoo but Sam was already in her queue.
Dean must have waited in the shower for Zumi because he came back with a clean moodlet. Sam planned that one well!
Dean looked defeated
Then he looked angry!
He still had an angry face when Sam turned to him and I wondered what the next interaction would be.
Silly Dean! LOL
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Because the kids had maxed the block table skill, I cancelled the action. Lycan went inside and interrupted Uncle Dean's jam session to gossip. "Mum and dad are watching the stars and holding hands."
"I know and it should have been me!"
Sam and Zumi continued to flirt after watching the stars.
A couple of hours after the family had gone to bed, a burglar came. She was very thin and extremely ugly from what I could see.
Dean, being brave, went out to fight her. Stoopid stars!
And won
The cop took his sweet time getting there!
The family got §500 for apprehending the burglar.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
There were many wishes to talk to other family members but they were not fulfilled over breakfast so I made the family sit until they were!
Sam found Zumi on the back deck and came out and told her a funny story.
When it didn't look their conversation was going to get romantic, I sent Zumi on her morning stroll with Cerberus.
Dean had a wish to play a game with Gryph.
When Zumi got back from her stroll she went straight for Sam for woohoo!
While they were busy I sent the rest of the family bowling.
I bought a dollhouse for the bowling alley and had Zumi and Sam join the others when they were done.
Dean took the first tumble!
To add insult to injury he had a bad shot
When Dean had finished his game I had him toss Cerberus in the air because he rolled a wish to do so as soon as Cerberus arrived.
While I was concentrating on Dean and Cerberus I heard Zumi yelp and turned the camera in time to see she had face planted!
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
When this sim failed to mooch money from Dean, he came over and flirted with Zumi
I saw from Sam's thumbnail that he was watching TV but I couldn't find him watching TV at the bowling alley. He must have snuck home when I wasn't looking.
When I saw Lycan trying to head home as well, I sent the whole family home. Zumi, Lycan and Dean chatted in the kitchen. I hope Zumi is talking about food!
Gryph and Sam headed to the bedroom for a pillow fight.
Whoa there, Sam!
Fortunately it ended well
Lycan and Zumi had a game of catch. Zumi leveled up to 3 in the athletic skill while playing. The kids used to have it easy with her but no more it would seem
After their game, Zumi and Lycan both headed to Dean for a chat. Romance is not easy when the kids don't have school
I realized no-one had tended the garden, so I had Sam take care of it. He reached level 5
When I checked on Dean, I found him hugging Lycan. Zumi must have given up any hope of romance and wandered off
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
As a mother, this made me cringe.
Sam and Zumi watched the stars.
Dean had been breaking boards but came in to tickle Cerberus. He's such a good daddy!
I was surprised that Dean didn't join in the flirting.
Instead, I saw him heading outside to ask Gryph for a pillow fight
Watch out! Toddler coming through!
Another pillow fight that ended well
When Zumi had put Cerberus in his crib, she joined Gryph and Dean to "get to know" Dean a little more
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers

And omg your banner is perfect!!
I loved all of the pictures where the children were wearing dinosaur costumes while playing in the treehouse or at the block table. They looked so cute and funny.
Before you stop playing this save, are you going to take the kids to CAS to see what they will look when they grow up? I would be so curious in your place!
