@Rawla Your house looks great. Sorry about the fire. That's a good tip to always start with salad.
@Rhythrin I hope you can play soon.

@Rawla - Howdy do to you too
@Rhythrin - Right?? I love seeing how differently everyone styles the same sims and essentially their houses too. It's really fun to see. I can't wait for you to start. I hope you can start on their house after work
@OJenn - Yesss I was so excited to see your Greene's were ready to start a family. They seemed to have fertility issues in my game too! It just makes it more exciting when they finally get that positive test
@JordanNicoleJJ - It's pretty cool that the thread is so active
@debjameswhite - Aw
Another baby boy! I don't think anyone is surprised given how things are going in all our save. But omg he is such a cutie, they all are really. I love how Knox has been such a good friend to the Greene's since the beginning. The independent trait for toddlers is perfect especially when you want to throw another kiddo in the mix.
@Rawla - Glad to see you back and posting again I laughed a little too hard at the first image of Aiyden and Iris looking at each other. As for aspirations: yes!
@debjameswhite - You and heckstress did such a good job on house plan B the 2 story house was definitely tempting haha. Love the kitchen in red, and its nice to see we both went that route
@Ryhthrin - Welcome back!!! I'm excited to see your founders style in the new world.

Chapter 2: A Stranger
The next morning, Lia fed the handsome stranger then asked the obvious questions. “OK so what happened to you? Why are you here? Who were those guys? How dare you put me and my daughter in danger?”
The stranger introduced himself. His name was Heath and that was probably all she wanted to know. He was very sorry for dragging her into his mess. He didn’t even remember coming to her house. If she would just let him use her computer he’d be gone by the end of the day.
“Fine.” Lia sighed as she pushed over a pile of clothes she had taken from her father. “I got you these, you’re other clothes were ruined. You still have a fever.” Her brow furrowed with concern.
“A hat?” he asked smiling as he examined everything she'd given him.
She shrugged, “You need a disguise.” He smiled again nodding his agreement. Then she just stared at him without realizing it. Well, he was nice to stare at.
To make up for the trouble he caused Heath took care of some things he saw that needed attention while she was at work.
He fixed the refrigerator.
He fixed the toilet
He even did laundry. Lia wasn’t sure she appreciated that one.
She did appreciate the uninterrupted time to work. She loved it.
She had 3 beautiful arrangements for the day and she sold all of them.
Heath came out to see if she would come in for lunch.
She agreed and they had a long conversation. She was kicking herself for liking him as much as she did. She knew he was trouble!
Afterwards, she convinced him to take a nap. She was really worried about his injuries.
Finally though he was on her computer and within an hour, he was gone.
@Heckstress17 ty! I think Giovanni and Nylah will get along famously once they get to know each other better.
@debjameswhite Your story has me hooked. I am eager to read what happens next.

(It's a big one... maybe too big?)
In my last update the Greene's welcomed their first child, Silas. Iris quit her job at the science lab to stay home with him, but by this time Silas preferred Daddy to her
But Aiyden was happy to work from home so he could stay home with his son.
He's a very temperamental sim, so it always makes me happy to see his bond with Silas.
Not long after Silas became a toddler, Iris began feeling sick...
Sure enough she was pregnant again! Unlike her 1st pregnancy, she was super nauseated.
I'm talking, all the time. Like @JordanNicoleJJ I too was hoping this difference meant it was a girl.
Since Mama was dealing with the 2nd pregnancy blues, Aiyden, really took over with Silas
He was a really relaxed toddler, always content to play by himself, and rarely causing trouble.
But he was still a toddler and required a lot of attention. Because of this, Iris' pregnancy seemed to fly by even faster then her first.
When she went into labor, they opted to have baby #2 at the hospital. Iris was so exhausted she passed out on the sidewalk before making it to the door
When she was able to pull herself off the floor, I gave her a sleep replacement drink so she could be conscious for the birth of her baby. But Aiyden inexplicably was in a overly flirtatious mood and tried laying the moves on his wife... who looked like she could've divorced him then and there
Once inside both of their moods had changed, and they were both surprisingly patient while waiting to be checked in... but the wait lasted hours!! All the hospital staff just stood in the waiting room and never moved.
Iris finally realized it was useless to wait and started walking home with Aiyden in tow.
Who after hours of waiting seemed to finally realize that his wife was having a baby.
Once back home a very exhausted and annoyed Iris gave birth to a baby girl!
I was so shocked that it was a girl. I felt really lucky to get one of each without cheating lol
Silas was so excited to have a new sibling
He was always going over to her crib to get a peek at her.
Shortly after Fawn's arrival it was Silas' birthday!
He aged up supremely unamused lol but super cute! (I forgot to take pics for an outfit tour. I'll do it next time I'm in game)
I didn't push too hard with his skills as a toddler, but he still had a good "toddlerhood". And the active trait ain't half bad.
His room got a big boy makeover.
Since we have to pick a trait to keep throughout the generations, I think I've decided on it being Iris' Lazy trait. Hence the mess. It's just a Greene thing now.
Silas' birthday was on Thanksgiving. After aging him up, Iris got to work on making the family's grand meal.
Please ignore Aiyden's annoyed expression, I swear he was having a good time lol
Silas has realized that Daddy has a soft spot for him. So he knew if he asked for new toys, he'd get them.
The next day baby Fawn aged up. I missed getting a pic of it, but isn't she adorable!?
Anyway, Aiyden was having a bad day and destroyed Fawn's dollhouse.
Poor Fawn was so upset.
(I've about had it with this dude!)
Thankfully big brother Silas is like a literal angel, and always sweet to little Fawn.
She loves him so much, it's so cute!
They just might be my favorite sim siblings ever. They became friends so fast.
And Fawn is her Mother's shadow. She's always following her around the house, and Iris is a lot closer to her then she got to be with Silas.
Aiyden isn't as bonded with Fawn as he is his son. (Hard to come back from wrecking your daughters dollhouse on her birthday lol) but he's still a very involved Dad.
and Despite his anger issues, he and Iris are still very much in love.
I'm really loving Silas
He's supposed to be an active sim but I can't pull him away from his void critter station
Over the weekend I sent him to the park to work on his aspiration and hopefully meet some kids his age. He quickly became a pro at hanging off of things lol
And he made a little buddy. No girls though, which is a shame cause I'm always scouting out potential mates
Anyway, I'll leave you with these pictures of Aiyden being a good Dad.
Cause at this point I'm not so sure I like him anymore
Happy Simming!
Taking pics of Silas' outfits made me realize he must really love those basketball shorts.
And Fawn was harder to style since toddler stuff is limited, but I like her little orange socks, and her winter outfit is my fav
And I realized I forgot to post CAS shots of the kids. So here's those. I think Silas is adorable, and seems to take more after his Mom with his facial structure. With Fawn it's just to early to tell.
Anyway I hope everyone gets a chance to play since it's the weekend. I need my update fix!
Evergreen Harbor has changed a lot since the Greenes moved in. With summer came lots of sporadic rain showers.
It was fitting, because the mood was fairly gloomy in the Greene household. Unfortunately, they had a loss in the family. They got so busy with work, Haven's birthday, and preparing for their second child's birth that they forgot to feed the cowplant for too long. RIP Bowie, you will be missed
Thankfully, Iris went into labor, and their grief was quickly replaced with joy...or panic...panicked joy
The Greenes welcomed a beautiful baby girl to the world, Eden Greene. I wanted a boy and a girl this generation, and I got them, so this will be the last nooboo for Aiyden & Iris. It's a little bittersweet.
Iris definitely wanted a girl -- she wasn't all that involved in raising Haven, but was at Eden's side constantly. Her maternal side finally outweighed her lazy side lol.
Haven got his "big kid" room makeover and lots of new toys to keep him entertained while Aiyden and Iris needed to give more attention to the new baby. He didn't complain one bit -- he was too busy training his voidcritters to care
"Woo, new high score!" or whatever the kids say these days
He also made lots of friends at school. This kid, Ulysses, traded him a really cool voidcritter card, so he invited him over to battle voidcritters after school.
Ulysses turned out to have some serious anger issues though
Also, if I didn't know better, I'd totally think Aiyden had an affair with a townie, and this kid was the result
Eventually it was time for baby Eden to grow up & out of the bassinet!
And here she is!!
And here's all of her adorable outfits! She aged up with those rain boots, and I just had to keep them. I like doing these outfit tours, because you guys wouldn't see like 90% of these outfits otherwise
Here she is striking a pose post-makeover like the little model she is
She also got the Inquisitive trait, and she loooves learning her flashcards with mama.
She also loves playing with her big brother. This pic totally reminds me of the end of Toy Story 3 when Andy was telling Bonny about all of his toys - "This is Snowball, and she's an evil super villain who wants to knock over all of the block towers in the world! Mwahahaha!!"
My favorite part is that she totally inherited Iris' lazy side. @Heckstress17 "lazy" might be my passed down trait too
I finally got my sims out of the house for a family fun day. They decided to walk down to the community center and check on the community garden that Iris convinced the neighborhood to start forever ago lol.
It ended up working out perfectly, as they all had different reasons to go out - Iris needed signatures to repeal an old NAP (replacing Self-Sufficiency with Green Gardening), and Aiyden wanted to bond with Eden on his day off.
Haven took the opportunity to make some new friends. Despite me downloading a bunch of families from the gallery so I'd have more kids in my game, there was only one kid there, but at least it was a pretty girl
They don't get out of the house a lot (I really need to build some community lots
She's much more of the "inquisitive" kid I was expecting the first time around lol. She's also an extremely easy toddler, keeping herself occupied most of the time.
Since Eden is so independent, Aiyden had a lot more free time and started making candles. I can't wait to decorate with them!
Time flies on normal life span, and it was already Aiyden's adult birthday. Iris made him a special honey cake with honey from their own bee box
Iris is quite a bit younger than him (thanks, two pregnancies lol), but she was there to support him like the loving wife she is
I don't know what he did to make her make this face...but it couldn't have been good
Here he is with his adult makeover, and the garden got a makeover too! They've been working so hard, they decided to splurge a bit on some outdoor furniture and better landscaping.
That's not all that's changing around Evergreen Harbor though. Thanks to all of Aiyden's hard work in civil engineering, the city is far, far more beautiful than it used to be! More and more people are moving to Evergreen Harbor every day now.
Haven's growing up so fast. He's a straight-A student, the most popular kid in school, and he has the confidence to match! (Also check out all that amazing landscaping
He's also officially the best big brother ever. Or at least Eden thinks so
Eden's growing up fast too. She's on the move constantly, looking for a family member to watch & learn from.
She likes to watch dad work in his office. It's probably really not safe to have a toddler around the dangerously temperamental fabricator and other strange, heavy machinery...
But Haven's still her favorite person. Haven's definitely getting older though. He invited his friend from the community garden, Suri, to come over and play voidcritters (which she's super into. Coolest girl ever.) and he was a little embarrassed by his little sister lingering around
He took Suri outside to be alone look at the clouds. He totally has a little crush on her
It was only a matter of time before curious Eden found them and crashed the party
He was right, because it was time for Eden to age up and make her own friends!
She. Is. Perfect. Omg I love her so much!!! She also rolled the Social Butterfly aspiration (this game is trying to make me rage quit lol) and the Cheerful trait. It's pretty fitting, I think. She got Iris' lip shape, and I THINK her eye shape? I can't tell which kid has which parent's eye shape tbh, but I know they're different
She's gonna be the most popular girl in school (obvi *insert hair flip emoji*), so I tried to give her a little bit more mature, "popular girl" stylish style. I love all of her outfits except formal lol. But what kid ever uses their formal outfit anyway
BOTH kids got complete room makeovers too, because they had the spare simoleons, and these kids deserve to be spoiled. Eden's room is very girly with lots of make-up, nail polish, etc. I also gave her some knitting stuff, because it's really cute decor, but Idk if she'll actually knit. We'll see.
Haven's new room fits his personality a little better I think. More mature, neutral colors with a few pops of cool colors. He still has his posters, toys, and school projects though. I'm sure those will get replaced as he develops new interests as a teen.
@Heckstress17 Er I sorta had time to prep D&D...
@debjameswhite I got some answers and soooooo many more questions. Heath is so helpful and good looking and ahhh
@JordanNicoleJJ Eden is perfect. I liked the big-kids room. The wardrobe pics you shared are good too.
@Heckstress17 & @JordanNicoleJJ The rules stated the parents needed to pass on a skill, not a trait. @OJenn I'm uncertain if this was intended though? Great updates the both of you. I love that both of you had girls for your second kid just as I did.
Origin #: madebymionax
@JordanNicoleJJ I'm so sorry about losing Bowie. They have other babies they need to focus on I guess. Hooray congrats on your baby girl! I love that name. I like Haven's big boy room. Haha I love your caption on his excited game face! Haha I was thinking the same thing about Ulysses as you! Aiyden? Can you comment? Awww Eden is a little cutie too and look at her adorable outfits! Ooo your community gargen looks so nice! Oh that's a good idea to get some gallery families. Especially with the wildcard mate in our future. I like his adult makeover. Haha poor Haven being embarrassed by his little sister. It's so cute thinking he has a little crush on Suri. Eden aged up so cute! I love her. I love her hair and her outfits are adorable. I love both of their rooms, they're so good!
@Mionax @Heckstress17 @JordanNicoleJJ @OJenn The skill was intended, but I totally think it's ok if you want to pass on a trait as well. I know I'm planning for all my heirs to be gardeners because I need them to but I'm also think "loves the outdoors" might be a trait I pass along too. The intention though was to pass on a "hobby/skill".
@Heckstress17 - You know we love big updates here ♥ Silas and Aiyden are so cute together, I'm so glad that Iris got her girl to bond with since Silas is a daddy's boy. I love Fawn's name it fits well with her last name
@JordanNicoleJJ - Oh no poor Bowie! I too had a cowplant death in the famiy. I think the Greene's are bound to have girls after their boys, you and @Hecktress17 had the same luck! And she is adorable in her little outfits the rainboots are her signature piece I see. I have to say after seeing your community garden I think I want one lol The maker space is ok but not as cool looking imo. Happy birthday Aiyden! I think his adult makeover makes him look even better, I love it. Omg the social butterfly aspiration, oof! That one is a doozy. The kids rooms look incredible.
@debjameswhite - Thanks for clearing that up I think I worded it weirdly in the main post but I also love Heckstress' idea of passing on a trait too. You guys come up with the best ideas!
Rebuild | Rebuild Vol. 2
@OJenn - Aw I'm glad you like Fawn's name. I wanted outdoorsy type names this generation, I do wish Fawn and Silas sounded a little more matchy matchy though lol I'm glad you liked the outfit tours too. I totally agree about needing CC for the toddlers too. Anyway, I really hope you can update soon. I'm excited to see and compare how the twins look in your game
@Mionax - Thank you for clearing up the skill/trait thing. I have no idea why I seem to be having such a hard time wrapping my head around that concept lol I love the pic of Silas and Fawn hugging too
@debjameswhite - I loved reading all your comments for me
@JordanNicoleJJ - I couldn't sleep last night and was refreshing the thread at like 1am hoping someone would post, and then you did!
I'm selfishly glad your D&D group is on a break this week. I've been loving your updates so much that if you didn't have time to post I'd probably cry

Chapter 3: Return
Years went by and Hailey went from toddler to a little girl.
Lia never forgot her mysterious stranger though. She often searched online to see if she could find anything about him, but she never did. Then one day he showed up again. He had never forgotten her. He had cleared up his “troubles” and wanted to take her on a “proper date”. It took everything in her not to throw her arms around him and proclaim her undying love to him right there. She didn’t know what it was about him, but she felt like they had been together forever.
At first things were awkward. How did you talk about those mysterious two days?
Soon though they were chatting away. Heath was very charismatic.
The flirting was also heavy.
They didn’t even notice there was something happening nearby.
They realized that night they were soul mates. They had eyes only for each other.
Heath told her everything about his occupation and why he had disappeared. She forgave him and he was on top of the world.
They fell in love quickly. Heath was great with Hailey and before long he was planning on how to save Evergreen Harbor with Lia. Heath still worked for the military, but he took a step back from all the spying, still there were certain things he needed and he convinced Lia to build a house with him where the old mill used to be. After about six months it was ready and the small family moved to their new home. Heath, knowing Lia loved dogs, even surprised her with a puppy mailbox. She loved it!
@Mionax OHHH that makes sense! Thanks for the clarification!
@debjameswhite So just out of curiosity, I looked up Ulysses' household (he's a random townie the game generated on Haven's first day of school)...low and behold he DOES have a single mother, but she looks like she could be Aiyden's sister, or even twin. So Aiyden's in the clear on that one - Ulysses definitely didn't get those pencil thin lips from Aiyden
@OJenn I was doing sooo well with Bowie, I even thought to myself "I bet this cowplant is going to live all ten generations!" Hahahaha wishful thinking. They do die so easily. I actually like the 'marketplace' community lot best. I'll show it off in my next update, I need to get my sims out more anyway lol. The garden is nice, but it comes "empty" - there aren't actually any plants. After a full day of talking to townies there, they planted a lot of common plants that you get from the starter packs. The only new plant I got was tomato
@Heckstress17 Omg and here I was like "maybe I'll just wait to post this til normal people hours, because no one will see it til then anyway"
Always!! Lol! It's cake central in my game
Rebuild | Rebuild Vol. 2
@debjameswhite - My sims are thankfully not having a bake off in my game
@JordanNicoleJJ - Oh lol that explains why you posted so late. Like I said, I was just kinda hopelessly refreshing my phone, and not really expecting anyone to update. Then sure enough the little red notification popped up and it was you lol I've become a bit of a night owl too. Because of Covid my husband's been working only overnight shifts, and I just can't sleep when he's not here. So basically I'm up till like 2 or 3 doing absolutely nothing every night
@Heckstress17 My bf switched to night shifts during all of the covid stuff too. Now we both get home at 9pm and stay up til 2-3 am playing video games/watching movies. It's the best lol. Hit me up on fb messenger if you're bored and wanna chat at 2-3am, cause chances are I'm awake too
In my last update baby Fawn was born, and quickly aged up to a toddler. She and her Mama are super close. Iris spends the majority of her day caring for Fawn and teaching her new skills.
Iris quit her job at the science lab awhile back, but realized she missed working. She finally put her degree to work, and joined the botany career. When she's not with Fawn, she's researching in her garden.
Part of her job requires her to obtain "cowplant essence"
I finally built a park for Silas to play at. I built it on the lot where the bar use to be. It's really small and cramped. AKA I hate it lol so no pics of it, but Silas has been going there regularly after school to play. He's even made a new friend. This is Justine
Silas has about 5 days left before becoming a teen and he's about halfway through completing his rambunctious scamp aspiration.
I think he'll complete it. It's a lot more fun to play when there's someone to play with after all.
While he was out he got this ridiculous call from his Mom
Then the moment I had been waiting for finally came, Fawn's birthday!
She's sooooooooo cute omg
I immediately went into CAS and started comparing genetics. I think she looks much more like her Dad then Silas does. She's got his nose and mouth for sure. I'm unsure about her eye shape since Aiyden's and Iris' are pretty similar, but her green eyes are a random genetic, they're 1 shade darker then her Mom's. When I look at her and Silas together they don't even look related
And I narrowed down my favorite outfits of hers so here's that
Of course, becoming a child meant it was time to update her bedroom. I'm picturing her as just your typical sweet little girl who loves all things pink.
And naturally unicorns and boy bands
She and her big brother are still the best of friends
Silas brought his friend, Zach, home from school. Immediately Fawn noticed he was sad and tried to cheer him up. Silas looks proud
Now she and Zach are better friends then he and Silas
I was taking this pic and thought to myself, this kid's pretty cute I wonder which townie family he's from. I looked and he's @debjameswhite Heath's son! I placed him and Lia into my game to be townies and MCC apparently married him off to a rando and made this cute kid. So thanks Heath
Fawn and Zach are now good friends. She's brought him home from school everyday she's been.
I feel like Fawn should've had the Social Butterfly aspiration. She's definitely a talker
I haven't talked about Aiyden much, but he's doing better at keeping his anger in check these days. Silas is still his little buddy, and he helps him out whenever he can.
Uncle Knox is still around too. He usually bares the brunt of Aiyden's tantrums
Justine is now a new regular at the Greene house. Silas loves that she's always down to play voidcritters. Even though she somehow manages to beat his overpowered voidcritter everytime?? lol
Fawn is also friends with Justine, but I really didn't want her to steal him from her brother like she did Zach lol so she's been keeping her distance.
She's always happy to play with her Mom.
Or by herself
Both of the Greene kids are having trouble sleeping. The monster under the bed has been relentless lately
Is the monster hiding in one of the drawers... or?
Iris and Aiyden are getting pretty fed up with having their sleep interrupted...
Aiyden's probably complaining about the laundry pile more then being woken up.
Iris on the other hand is definitely complaining about being woken up
She doesn't stay mad long
That's it for now. I'll leave you with this cute selfie of Fawn and Silas.
Happy Simming!
