Alexandra hurries downstairs and finds Jared outside talking with Derek. Jared smiles and holds his hand out to her as she comes closer "Hi, I needed to talk with you"
Derek goes inside to find Kendall and give them some privacy.
Alexandra squeezes his hand and bounces while she talks. "I need to talk with you also. You are not going to believe it. We are pregnant." she tells him smiling happily.
Jared is very surprised, excited and happy with the news and kisses his lovely wife. He also tells the baby hello and he is looking forward to meeting the baby.
"We've got to call your parents and let them know. Then call Brian and Melee. Oh my goodness, we have to get a nursery prepared also. Are you feeling alright? Is that why you had to rush out of the hot tub last night? Maybe you should be lying down?"
"Jared! Take a deep breath, please. Are you going to be a nervous Dad to be?"
Jared takes a deep breath and smiles sheepishly. I guess I did get a little rushed and nervous thinking too much all at once.
"So, what did you want to talk to me about?"
"Ah, your news was so awesome it completely blocked my mind." Jared tells her about the conversation with Derek and how they talked about what happened after he left and how sad and hurt they both were. "I think we are going to be ok now. It was a great talk and I understand why he stayed away from me too and that he was hurt as well by my leaving like I did." He tells her about Derek quitting his job in order to come to the wedding and that Kendall was fired as she worked for the same firm and his parents have control over it.
"I'd like for them to stay with us for awhile if they would like it and of course if you wouldn't mind. Derek told me I needed to talk to you before inviting them and I think he was right about that. What do you think?"
"Jared we've got the third floor they can fix up and use as private quarters. It will give them more room than being stuck in the guest room, and of course we can share the rest of the house as needed. You know that won't bother me. I'm so happy that you guys talked it through. You both needed that. I think it is a great idea for them to stay. I know how much you missed him and we can get to know Kendall better. She seems perfect for him and I've enjoyed getting to know her."
Jared hugs her tightly to him. "That is exactly what I told Derek you would say. I love you Alexandra."
She hugs Jared tightly. "I love you Jared."
Derek and Kendall come outside and Alexandra shares the news of the pregnancy with Kendall and Derek. Jared lets Derek know that Alexandra is good with them staying. Derek said he mentioned it to Kendall and she agreed staying away from Roaring Heights would be a good idea. She loved the idea of staying here in Bridgeport and looks forward to getting to know them better.
Alexandra calls her Mom and Dad with the good news while Jared calls Brian and Melee. Everyone is very excited with the news and is offering advice and tips to the young couple.
Alexandra shows Kendall the room that will be converted into a nursery. "I bought the bookcase a long time ago, but, need to get the rest of the furnishings for a nursery now." They chat about current trends with nurseries and how important colors and sounds are for newborns.
Alexandra fixed Jared's favorite, hamburgers for dinner and he can't keep his eyes off her during dinner. After dinner the foursome played a game of dominoes and Kendall was the triumphant winner.
Kendall had a sudden wish to visit the cemetery in the moonlight. She wasn't completely eccentric enough to go alone so she talked to Derek and of course he said he'd go with her. They saw one ghost but left it alone. They did check out the bar below the mausoleum, but the bartender was absent. They went back to strolling in the moonlight and made out in the cemetery, both getting the kissed in the moonlight moodlet.
Jared and Alexandra went into the room that would be converted to a nursery and relaxed on the bed. They talked about their hopes and plans for the baby, discussed names for boys and girls, wondered if the baby would have her hair and his eyes. They also fooled around a bit too.
Liv teaches Chase to speak early one morning, and thought the boy made the most adorable faces as he talked!
The girls tried for a second baby in the hot tub, and heard chimes. I cheated, checked with mc, and don't need to use the fruit trick. The baby is already a female. They're going to have a little girl!
After getting inside from the hottub, Liv received a call from one of her moms, Helen. They spoke mostly about Chase, and about the fact that she and Kimbra were trying for another one. Little does she know there's one on the way!
Kimbra made some dim sum, which she put in the fridge for later.
Just what you want watching you do your business:
Liv wakes up sick in the middle of the night, and wonders if they'd been successful in the hot tub!
I know Chase's toddlerhood wasn't very photo-full, but he has learned every one of his skills! His little sister is on the way, and as I decided I was going to give all of the children rather long childhoods, Chase's toddlerhood came to an end. His mother made a pumpkin pie to celebrate, as the birthday cake could not be used for some reason. Chase aged up well, and I chose the virtuoso trait for him to work with.
Oh no! His hair glitches at this age, causing his eyes to turn black! This is fixed next update, as I have had fake eyes in my costume makeup for a long time, and will give some to him.
By the way, Chase's favourite colour is yellow, and he loves Mac n Cheese!
I play Sims 2, Sims 3, Sims 4, and The Urbz: Sims in the City on gamecube and ds. Main Game: Sims 3
@emorrill Tamara Donner you should makeover Annabelle Oinkslopes.The thing is well...Tamara is alive and has a whole life ahead of her,Annabelle died by electrocution at a young age never got a chance to wear beautiful clothes or can no longer get her hair done etc.Have a heart
@meerkattime Hi there my preciouuuuuuuus, and thank you.
@bekkasan : Maybe this is the cutest event I have seen since the reboot in January 2017 after my old saves became corrupted.
héhé a lot of love in your page 2679 update I really enjoy to see .
@coco: It was I was SO HAPPY to see my girl and to be able to care of her through Miss V and she could stay as all she wished
but as Viviane loves her dog too I rather sent her at home after the zombie apocalypse of full moon night.
I really adore events like that, that makes me so emotional if I weren't under treatment I maybe fall crying like a river .that's why I love the open world, you often got the chance to live crazy or cute things in your town.
And that's one of the reason why I love the sims 3 and more the pets ep that everybody told me to get rid off because it's a monster EP badly made I always say No to miss these?
@tadolson : Good luck with your town and thank you for always chatting with me.
@Puddinroy :thank you I did not had the chance to publish yet the visit of Brunelle the dog, I'll do it ! Thank you for the comments on my pictures. I know I don't post often because 90% of my pictures are for Miss V Detective my story but I do when I can.
@Mikezumi : I agree I wish to have more events like this and I love your new updates .
@emorrill Looks like you're having fun.
****Nice makeovers.
@Charlottesmom Everything seemed to make sense. To me anyway.
****~once again noticing the random details~ Have you read the other two books in the Divergent series?
****Maybe the older one will stick near the property until its sibling is released.
****I flip through a set of different game every time I load up the game. I think I'm up to about 9 different saves now. It keeps me from getting too bored.
****Sorry about the little bird. *hugs* At least the bigger one will survive.
@lanlyn I play it sparingly. Usually about once a month when I don't have time to load up Sims 3 and need a Sims fix.
@bekkasan She actually has the Bookworm trait, so I don't know why she ignored the bookcase.
****You really like going to France, huh?
****So. Much. France.
****I always get a tad bit overwhelmed playing that many Sims at once. Sometimes I can barely handle 3 or 4.
@polrbear Serves the creeper right for trying to rob someone while naked.
****Chase is adorable.
****Toddler + Kitten =
@Mikezumi I miss SP so much. I really am going to have to look into getting a better system around back to school or Christmas.
****Lachie seems to have aged up well. Sorry Morna lost her two new friends.
@Nikkei_Simmer Adulting rears its ugly head again, I see.
****Mmm... Deep fried turkey leg...
****Sound actually travels better in cold weather.
Sorry my comments dropped off toward the end there, but I had a lot of pages to catch up on.
I was with the Costers on Friday. They're settling into their new house wonderfully. Darla aged up to child. She looks almost exactly like her mom. Next time I play, I'll have to get her into a costume. I gave her regular clothes when I put her through CAS.
Saturday I was playing with the Blacks. Iris and Isabelle aged up to toddler. Iris looks almost exactly like Rufus, and Isabelle ended up with random blond hair. I'm leaving it as is for now. Harvey aged up to teen. I believe I still need to put him through CAS. Also, Ursa, the family's dog passed on, which leaves only Mitten as a family pet. I'll look into adopting another animal when I play them next. I have a picture of Harvey eating a muffin.
Last night I was with the Drakes. They had baby Dinah, another fairy. And I just realized what name I gave her... *face palm* Oh, well. Too late now. Cecily learned to drive. For the life of me, I can't remember the mom's name. I have a pic of Mom and Dad with baby Dinah in a crib in the background.
@Charlottesmom, I'm sorry that the one baby bird didn't make it I'm glad the other baby is doing well and I hope he will grow up strong and healthy
@LunBeauty, I always find (and adopt) a lot of stray cats in Riverview Good luck; I hope you can find a nice kitty
@bekkasan, thanks I was very pleased when I saw how colourful the mod made Bridgeport I don't have Midnight Hollow but I have read that is it a very dark world, even at midday :O
Looks like your Sims are excited about the new baby
Oliver joined the household during the night
Euan didn't use the rocking chair
Jordan arrived just before the sun came up
Lachie woke up with mood swings on his first morning as a teen ... CANCELLED!
You'll feel better in a moment, Lachie
Oliver came to the house with a couple of cooking skill points and was the only one to roll a wish to prepare them when they finished breakfast
Rory's waking wish was to catch a bug but there were no active spawners on the map. He was very close to mastering the block table so I had him do that as it was his birthday and he wouldn't get another chance. I would have settled for 2 skill points but 3 is better
Lachie's waking wish was to finish a book but I didn't have any comic books he hadn't already read so I sent him for a jog since he had a wish locked in from the previous evening.
Oliver got his wish to prepare pancakes
Kenna also had a wish to finish a book so I gave her the recipe for ratatouille. Morna, being a bookworm, read while she waited for Oliver to be free.
Niall's waking wish was to play a game with Cain
Jordan mostly wandered or haunted during his visit.
When Lachie got back from his jog, I had him water the garden to unlock the gardening skill acquired from Scouts.
Since Niall still had his wish to level up and Cain was still working towards reaching level 8 in MA, I had the boys spar after their game of catch.
Niall won and leveled up
@king_of_simcity7 Great aerial shots of Bridgeport. I am pretty sure your problem is caused by MOO and pose player ... but I could be wrong since I have never used it.
@coco Poor Sun I think a lot of women sacrifice their own happiness to care for others. I am glad that she was able to tell Saville how she is feeling.
Oh dear! Just when they decide to move, a pregnancy! Congrats and good luck
Thanks for the lovely comments
I have always found that my evil sims make wonderful fathers Apart from scaring and the silly wishes to donate to undermine causes, and the occasional wish to get into a bar brawl, evil sims are pretty tame but they do have the best expressions
@Silverofdreams30 Thanks It takes a long time for me to get my family to behave for the family photos!
Lovely house and great updates Fun party
@LunBeauty Thanks for the lovely comments To grow steaks, cheese and eggs you need to do a certain chain of gardening challenges. You can trigger them with MC. I can't remember exactly which ones they are but I am sure it's easy enough to look up. I haven't bothered with it in this save because my sims's lives are too short and I have those plants in my community garden.
I think there is only one male voice I can't stand.
Morna already has a boyfriend. They have been together since she became a teen. You would have seen them misbehaving in earlier updates. His name is Oliver.
I think it's the No Sense of Humor trait that makes them put other sims to sleep.
It's good that Autumn knows her dad and that he didn't mean anything bad about his complaining
He looks thrilled about becoming a granddad
Good advice from dad!
I hope Persophone hasn't jinxed them with the mention of twins!
What a lovely family get together
Sassy is still adorable
@polrbear Thank you I am still waiting for Rory to get his wish but it will happen, I am sure!
@bekkasan Thanks for the lovely comments I was also gone yesterday because I visited my mother's grave as her anniversary is coming up. I spend the bulk of the morning and afternoon with my aunt as she took me to the cemetery and then to see her new house.
I always give my evil sims the friendly trait to counter the evilness. They really are lovely sims and not evil at all, just a little cheeky
I really enjoy just leaving my sims to it. Apart from the occasional try for baby that I wasn't ready for, they don't get into trouble on their own.
As soon as Oliver finished cooking he went to Morna for a kiss
I watched them flirt until they found each other irresistible then took control to have Oliver propose
These two get on really well
I could hear Cain call out to Niall and found them about to woohoo
I shouldn't have taken my eyes of these two because when I got back to them they were about to try for baby. I paused for a moment then decided to let them do it.
I saw something at the fishing pond and thought that perhaps the rod was left there when Fife was called back to the netherworld but realized that couldn't be so because I would have seen it sooner. I went into map view and found Jay (can't remember his last name) who has been visiting the family pond since he was a child. I changed his outfit and he became visible.
I laughed when I saw that Oliver and Morna had chosen the tent. Jay was in for a show! LOL
Nah, he was more interested in the rainbow trout he had caught
Jordan stood in front of Jay for a long time. I went into map view and found he was trying to ask Jay to group up with him.
Jay kept right on fishing and eventually Jordan vanished.
@bekkasan I am sure it was a sad moment saying goodbye to Brian and Melee. They have been such wonderful friends I like their new house!
Yep, all that throwing up can only mean one thing!
Awwww special brother bonding time
What a mean thing for the parents to do! Good for Derek up and quitting!
Of course Jared forgave his brother immediately on seeing him! Jared is a sweetheart
Dang! The parents got Kendall fired too! They really should stay with Jared and Alexandra!
Good! Jared showed you the way
Lovely update
@Silverofdreams30 Liam is a cutie
Great update I am sure Liam will be happy with your family
@LunBeauty Funny pregnancy story from Persephone's pregnancy
It's good they spent the night. I am sure they had a lot to catch up on
Great shots of the simfest
@emorrill Thanks for the lovely comments I am careful when taking pics of Kenna because on some angles her thighs distort. I think it is because the dress was original an adult one that has been converted for teens. Most of the time her thighs look fine.
I felt terrible for Morna witnessing Rain's death just after she met her
I heard baby chimes while Oliver and Morna were in the tent so I had them do the right thing
Over-emotional Cain wiped away a tear or two
Niall smiled bravely as his first born committed herself to another man
Jay wandered over as well
I saw the pool in Niall's queue and when I checked on him a little later found him skinny dipping.
After a while he changed into his swimwear so he could dive
I found Oliver and Morna in the basement. I don't need to worry about them trying for baby again since you can't get more pregnant than pregnant
Rory came home early and did his homework.
I found some active bug spawners and sent him to get his waking wish. He missed the first butterfly.
But he got his wish on his second try
After he caught the butterfly he got another wish he had rolled on finishing school for the day which was to meet someone new. He met Melissa Herrerra, Elspet's granddaughter.
The teens came home late because of after school activities. Kenna had Music and Lachie had Shop.
I looked outside and saw the grown ups playing catch.
@bekkasan Of course Jared is overjoyed with the news!
I am sure you will put together a beautiful nursery
I didn't doubt that Alexandra would want them to stay
Mom and Dad will be over the moon with the news!
There's a kissed in the moonlight moodlet!? I want!
One big happy family! Yay!
@polrbear Congrats on the pregnancy with a little girl
Congrats on Chase learning all his skills Such a short time as a toddler given your long lifespan!
He's a cutie!
@meerkattime Thanks for the lovely comments The ghosts are fun to watch while the family sleep
Silly Goodwin! Oh no! He died!
Will you be resurrecting him? Maura is without a daddy now
@Silverofdreams30 I hope your game hasn't become corrupted because of the floating and bad teleportation landings!
@MoonandStars83 Thanks Good luck getting a better system SP is worth it
Darla is a cute child
Sorry for the passing of Ursa
Congrats on the birth of Dinah
The family gathered around for Rory's birthday
Pigtails!
I didn't check his muscle definition but it must be pretty high with those veins popping out on his arms! He looked so sad and I think it was because his father couldn't be there I still have his wish to get attention from dad locked in and as soon as one of them visits he will be woken!
I got him to unhide the cooking skills acquired from the toy oven when he had eaten his cake.
Lachie asked Niall to teach him how to drive They stopped once but it went well apart from that.
When Rory unhid his cooking skills, he rolled a wish to learn a fish recipe so I gave him the recipe for fish and chips. He got upset when he couldn't get to the chair he had chosen because Kenna and Cain were sparring. Silly boy! They were sparring before I gave you the book! Kenna had a wish to level up and Cain still hasn't got his wish to reach level 8.
I'd seen Morna and Oliver going into one of the bedrooms but it wasn't long before Morna came out to throw up.
Poor Cain got to watch another level up without getting his
When Lachie got back from his driving lessons, I sent him to unhide his cooking skills as well.
I found Kenna on the drums
Niall must have interrupted Cain at the MA equipment to ask him to watch the stars
I gave Lachie the recipe for ratatouille and he got his waking wish to finish a book
Niall had been watching the martial artist when Lachie rudely interrupted him
He was proud of himself
Sam was the first to arrive
John arrived shortly after
So, I decided not to mess with my NRaas SP settings for now. The main reason I had installed that module in the first place was so I could experiment with rotational play. There are only two worlds where I've switched households on a regular basis: my Gentlemen Prefer Ghosts save (was in Mysterious Island, now in Côtes d'Ambonnay) and my recent World Travelers save (in my new Mysterious Island). I left my NRaas SP settings enabled for these two saves, including their caste settings. I disabled NRaas SP in the other 5 worlds where I had set it up. If I want to do something with those townies, I'll just use NRaas MC like I have in the past.
In the meantime, I've been back in Skyrim. There are a few things I wanted to do there. First of all, I enabled Survival Mode and added some mods that tweaked the effects and settings of that mode. Now my character has to eat, sleep, and stay warm while he travels. It's an extra bit of challenge for the game.
Traveling through a chilly region of Skyrim.
Taking a break to warm up at a campsite.
Another challenge I wanted to complete was the Forgotten City quest. It's a spectacular mod which has won several awards.
The Forgotten City is the first mod in history to win a national Writers' Guild award for its script. It is a critically acclaimed expansion mod offering a unique 6 - 8 hour experience: a murder mystery investigation set in an ancient underground city. You'll need to solve it using your wits, and the ability to travel through time...

I'm too far behind to give proper feedback, but I'll make some quick comments. If I didn't catch the typos, sorry!
@bekkasan I've really enjoyed seeing the family's trip to Champs Les Sims with the wedding, honeymoon, etc. All the couples. That hotel build is awesome! Such beautiful scenery. ...I liked the fountain of youth shots. ...Congrats on the pregnancy. ...And so cool that Derek and Kendall are staying in town!
@thuggishsplicer It's good to see all the screenshots of your game play! Neat backstory.
@meerkattime Congrats on Maura aging up to child. That will make things so much easier for Mea. ...Wow! Poor Goodwin. I wonder how Mea and Maura will take the news.
@LunBeauty Beautiful wedding and reception. Great success. ...Darling kitten. ...And congrats on the pregnancy. ...I enjoyed the scenes between Autumn and her dad. ...Congrats on Sassy's birthday.
@Silverofdreams30 Lovely Riverside scenery. Fun screenshots of the family and the two couples. ...I'll enjoy seeing pics of Great Bear. I've never heard of that world. ...Fun seeing @TinySpaceFox's Stardew Valley guys in your game. ...Also, congrats on the adoption of Liam.
@TinySpaceFox I loved your sim versions of the Stardew Valley bachelors. I'm not familiar with them, but I saw your post in the other thread. Very cool! And nice job on simifying the originals. ...Fun look at the evolution of your male sims. ...And I loved your extended interview with David and Martin! You have those guys' personalities down pat. Their expressions are awesome.
@coco How wonderful to see Sun and Saville again! Awesome couple. ...Loved your Worlds without Clouds update. Sun's personality shined through that dialogue. ...Sweet screenshots of the two with baby Jeremiah. He is a doll! I like his new hair color. Genius and Easily Impressed are great traits!
@king_of_simcity7 It was interesting to see the backstory of Emily and Penny. ...Pose player certainly sends your sims flying! LOL
@Charlottesmom To answer your question. My first blood test was a 10 hour fasting draw, but the second followup didn't require fasting. The second test had better results though.
@emorrill I enjoyed seeing your CAS makeover screenshots.
@polrbear Congrats on the pregnacy for you too. Sims are having lots of babies in the thread recently! Artistic and Genius make great traits. Chase is a darling toddler.
@CravenLestat Seren is lovely. Cute cat shirt and jacket too.
@TadOlson Neat that you have cloned and repriced items for your sims. That helps them when they're just starting out.
@Nikkei_Simmer LOL at the phone calls to River and Haruo. ...Neat to see a new boarder. Good looking guy! ...I see Riverview is still having meteor trouble! Ha! ...It looks like I need to say congrats on the pregnancy to you too! So many new babies in the thread.
@Vincent_Vengeance Glad you got screenshots to work for you again. I never had a problem seeing them myself. ...I love Steve's face. Very handsome sim. Unique too.
@ddsims3world I enjoyed seeing the screenshots of Morty and Bella.
@Mikezumi Lots of ghosts in your recent screenshots! I love how they make themselves at home. It's almost like they've never left! ...Cute paintings. ...So sad about Rain and Michael passing over so close together, but kind of romantic too. ...Teen Lachie! So handsome. ...Fun family photos. ...Nice to see Oliver in the family now. And congrats on the wedding AND the baby! ...LOL at those moody expressions on Lachie's face. ...Great screenshot of Niall's dive. ...Rory is a nice looking teen. Awesome green eyes. So sad his father wasn't there to see him age up. ...Loved the latest family photos.
@PalmArrow I just started playing a save in Legacy Island III, but I really like it. It feels like a complete world. Up to date. And beautiful too. Good luck to Erica as she begins her new life there!
@MoonandStars83 Fun screenshots of your sims. Cute hairstyle on Darla.

@bekkasan I am glad that Alexandra is pregnant
@polrbear Cute toddler pictures
@meerkattime Thanks for the comment Interesting fire. Shame that Goodwin died
I had trouble teleporting them back. The puppy seemed to be going mad!
I made this happen
Note a different Sim inside
Emily is smoking hot!
Is this a dream or a nightmare?
Bridgeport
What world shall I try next?

@lanlyn I play it sparingly. Usually about once a month when I don't have time to load up Sims 3 and need a Sims fix.
@bekkasan She actually has the Bookworm trait, so I don't know why she ignored the bookcase.
****You really like going to France, huh?
****So. Much. France.
****I always get a tad bit overwhelmed playing that many Sims at once. Sometimes I can barely handle 3 or 4.
@polrbear Serves the creeper right for trying to rob someone while naked.
****Chase is adorable.
****Toddler + Kitten =
@meerkattime Maura looks like she'll be lovely.
@TadOlson Looks like everything is progressing nicely.
****Have fun with your hobo bed.
****Looks like your town is coming along well.
@Drakos *waves*
@LunBeauty Lovely wedding pics.
****And great reception pics.
****Kitten!!!
****Looks like the girls are enjoying married life.
@Silverofdreams30 Great pics.
****Looks like everyone is doing well.
@jennydb91 *waves* Have fun with your genie.
@coco Sun and Saville look happy.
@king_of_simcity7 Have fun with your game.
****Poor Penny and Emily.
****Did you try resetting them?
@TinySpaceFox Great looking Sims.
@a_niles06 Dragon!!
@Mikezumi I miss SP so much. I really am going to have to look into getting a better system around back to school or Christmas.
****Lachie seems to have aged up well. Sorry Morna lost her two new friends.
@Nikkei_Simmer Adulting rears its ugly head again, I see.
****Mmm... Deep fried turkey leg...
****Sound actually travels better in cold weather.
@Vincent_Vengeance Great preview!
@ddsims3world Nice to see Morty & Bella settling in Twinbrook. Hopefully they'll be happy.
@Finbar659 So cute!!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sorry my comments dropped off toward the end there, but I had a lot of pages to catch up on.
I was with the Costers on Friday. They're settling into their new house wonderfully. Darla aged up to child. She looks almost exactly like her mom. Next time I play, I'll have to get her into a costume. I gave her regular clothes when I put her through CAS.
Saturday I was playing with the Blacks. Iris and Isabelle aged up to toddler. Iris looks almost exactly like Rufus, and Isabelle ended up with random blond hair. I'm leaving it as is for now. Harvey aged up to teen. I believe I still need to put him through CAS. Also, Ursa, the family's dog passed on, which leaves only Mitten as a family pet. I'll look into adopting another animal when I play them next. I have a picture of Harvey eating a muffin.
Last night I was with the Drakes. They had baby Dinah, another fairy. And I just realized what name I gave her... *face palm* Oh, well. Too late now. Cecily learned to drive. For the life of me, I can't remember the mom's name. I have a pic of Mom and Dad with baby Dinah in a crib in the background.
Happy Simming, all!!

Lol yes, we often have a lot of rain in England xD It makes a change to have sunshine! The weather here has been pretty decent since April
Wow, you do need to catch up You can have a MLP marathon :P
@Finbar659, Chuckles is adorable
@Silverofdreams30, no problem It looks like Liam has settled in OK
@Charlottesmom, I'm sorry that the one baby bird didn't make it I'm glad the other baby is doing well and I hope he will grow up strong and healthy
@LunBeauty, I always find (and adopt) a lot of stray cats in Riverview Good luck; I hope you can find a nice kitty
@bekkasan, thanks I was very pleased when I saw how colourful the mod made Bridgeport I don't have Midnight Hollow but I have read that is it a very dark world, even at midday :O
Looks like your Sims are excited about the new baby
@MoonandStars83, your Sims are very pretty
Also left lots of likes and awesomes
Euan didn't use the rocking chair
Jordan arrived just before the sun came up
Lachie woke up with mood swings on his first morning as a teen ... CANCELLED!
You'll feel better in a moment, Lachie
Oliver came to the house with a couple of cooking skill points and was the only one to roll a wish to prepare them when they finished breakfast
Rory's waking wish was to catch a bug but there were no active spawners on the map. He was very close to mastering the block table so I had him do that as it was his birthday and he wouldn't get another chance. I would have settled for 2 skill points but 3 is better
Lachie's waking wish was to finish a book but I didn't have any comic books he hadn't already read so I sent him for a jog since he had a wish locked in from the previous evening.
Oliver got his wish to prepare pancakes
Kenna also had a wish to finish a book so I gave her the recipe for ratatouille. Morna, being a bookworm, read while she waited for Oliver to be free.
Niall's waking wish was to play a game with Cain
Jordan mostly wandered or haunted during his visit.
When Lachie got back from his jog, I had him water the garden to unlock the gardening skill acquired from Scouts.
Since Niall still had his wish to level up and Cain was still working towards reaching level 8 in MA, I had the boys spar after their game of catch.
Niall won and leveled up

@king_of_simcity7 Great aerial shots of Bridgeport. I am pretty sure your problem is caused by MOO and pose player ... but I could be wrong since I have never used it.
@coco Poor Sun I think a lot of women sacrifice their own happiness to care for others. I am glad that she was able to tell Saville how she is feeling.
Oh dear! Just when they decide to move, a pregnancy! Congrats and good luck
Thanks for the lovely comments
I have always found that my evil sims make wonderful fathers Apart from scaring and the silly wishes to donate to undermine causes, and the occasional wish to get into a bar brawl, evil sims are pretty tame but they do have the best expressions
@Silverofdreams30 Thanks It takes a long time for me to get my family to behave for the family photos!
Lovely house and great updates Fun party
@LunBeauty Thanks for the lovely comments To grow steaks, cheese and eggs you need to do a certain chain of gardening challenges. You can trigger them with MC. I can't remember exactly which ones they are but I am sure it's easy enough to look up. I haven't bothered with it in this save because my sims's lives are too short and I have those plants in my community garden.
I think there is only one male voice I can't stand.
Morna already has a boyfriend. They have been together since she became a teen. You would have seen them misbehaving in earlier updates. His name is Oliver.
I think it's the No Sense of Humor trait that makes them put other sims to sleep.
It's good that Autumn knows her dad and that he didn't mean anything bad about his complaining
He looks thrilled about becoming a granddad
Good advice from dad!
I hope Persophone hasn't jinxed them with the mention of twins!
What a lovely family get together
Sassy is still adorable
@polrbear Thank you I am still waiting for Rory to get his wish but it will happen, I am sure!
@bekkasan Thanks for the lovely comments I was also gone yesterday because I visited my mother's grave as her anniversary is coming up. I spend the bulk of the morning and afternoon with my aunt as she took me to the cemetery and then to see her new house.
I always give my evil sims the friendly trait to counter the evilness. They really are lovely sims and not evil at all, just a little cheeky
I really enjoy just leaving my sims to it. Apart from the occasional try for baby that I wasn't ready for, they don't get into trouble on their own.

I watched them flirt until they found each other irresistible then took control to have Oliver propose
These two get on really well
I could hear Cain call out to Niall and found them about to woohoo
I shouldn't have taken my eyes of these two because when I got back to them they were about to try for baby. I paused for a moment then decided to let them do it.
I saw something at the fishing pond and thought that perhaps the rod was left there when Fife was called back to the netherworld but realized that couldn't be so because I would have seen it sooner. I went into map view and found Jay (can't remember his last name) who has been visiting the family pond since he was a child. I changed his outfit and he became visible.
I laughed when I saw that Oliver and Morna had chosen the tent. Jay was in for a show! LOL
Nah, he was more interested in the rainbow trout he had caught
Jordan stood in front of Jay for a long time. I went into map view and found he was trying to ask Jay to group up with him.
Jay kept right on fishing and eventually Jordan vanished.

That's what happened
@plushtrap_107 Thanks Some of the paintings are really cute
Beautiful pic! I have only tried one of Brntwaffles lighting mods. I should try more.
@coco Jem is absolutely adorable
@bekkasan I am sure it was a sad moment saying goodbye to Brian and Melee. They have been such wonderful friends I like their new house!
Yep, all that throwing up can only mean one thing!
Awwww special brother bonding time
What a mean thing for the parents to do! Good for Derek up and quitting!
Of course Jared forgave his brother immediately on seeing him! Jared is a sweetheart
Dang! The parents got Kendall fired too! They really should stay with Jared and Alexandra!
Good! Jared showed you the way
Lovely update
@Silverofdreams30 Liam is a cutie
Great update I am sure Liam will be happy with your family
@LunBeauty Funny pregnancy story from Persephone's pregnancy
It's good they spent the night. I am sure they had a lot to catch up on
Great shots of the simfest
@emorrill Thanks for the lovely comments I am careful when taking pics of Kenna because on some angles her thighs distort. I think it is because the dress was original an adult one that has been converted for teens. Most of the time her thighs look fine.
I felt terrible for Morna witnessing Rain's death just after she met her
@Nikkei_Simmer Congrats on Alanna's pregnancy
@PalmArrow Lovely looking world!
Good luck to Erica Looks like she will do fine with money trees in the world

Over-emotional Cain wiped away a tear or two
Niall smiled bravely as his first born committed herself to another man
Jay wandered over as well
I saw the pool in Niall's queue and when I checked on him a little later found him skinny dipping.
After a while he changed into his swimwear so he could dive
I found Oliver and Morna in the basement. I don't need to worry about them trying for baby again since you can't get more pregnant than pregnant
Rory came home early and did his homework.
I found some active bug spawners and sent him to get his waking wish. He missed the first butterfly.
But he got his wish on his second try
After he caught the butterfly he got another wish he had rolled on finishing school for the day which was to meet someone new. He met Melissa Herrerra, Elspet's granddaughter.
The teens came home late because of after school activities. Kenna had Music and Lachie had Shop.
I looked outside and saw the grown ups playing catch.

@PalmArrow Thanks for the lovely comments
@Finbar659 Chuckles is adorable
@bekkasan Of course Jared is overjoyed with the news!
I am sure you will put together a beautiful nursery
I didn't doubt that Alexandra would want them to stay
Mom and Dad will be over the moon with the news!
There's a kissed in the moonlight moodlet!? I want!
One big happy family! Yay!
@polrbear Congrats on the pregnancy with a little girl
Congrats on Chase learning all his skills Such a short time as a toddler given your long lifespan!
He's a cutie!
@meerkattime Thanks for the lovely comments The ghosts are fun to watch while the family sleep
Silly Goodwin! Oh no! He died!
Will you be resurrecting him? Maura is without a daddy now
@Silverofdreams30 I hope your game hasn't become corrupted because of the floating and bad teleportation landings!
@MoonandStars83 Thanks Good luck getting a better system SP is worth it
Darla is a cute child
Sorry for the passing of Ursa
Congrats on the birth of Dinah

Pigtails!
I didn't check his muscle definition but it must be pretty high with those veins popping out on his arms! He looked so sad and I think it was because his father couldn't be there I still have his wish to get attention from dad locked in and as soon as one of them visits he will be woken!
I got him to unhide the cooking skills acquired from the toy oven when he had eaten his cake.
Lachie asked Niall to teach him how to drive They stopped once but it went well apart from that.
When Rory unhid his cooking skills, he rolled a wish to learn a fish recipe so I gave him the recipe for fish and chips. He got upset when he couldn't get to the chair he had chosen because Kenna and Cain were sparring. Silly boy! They were sparring before I gave you the book! Kenna had a wish to level up and Cain still hasn't got his wish to reach level 8.
I'd seen Morna and Oliver going into one of the bedrooms but it wasn't long before Morna came out to throw up.
Poor Cain got to watch another level up without getting his
When Lachie got back from his driving lessons, I sent him to unhide his cooking skills as well.
I found Kenna on the drums
Niall must have interrupted Cain at the MA equipment to ask him to watch the stars
I gave Lachie the recipe for ratatouille and he got his waking wish to finish a book
Niall had been watching the martial artist when Lachie rudely interrupted him
He was proud of himself
Sam was the first to arrive
John arrived shortly after

In the meantime, I've been back in Skyrim. There are a few things I wanted to do there. First of all, I enabled Survival Mode and added some mods that tweaked the effects and settings of that mode. Now my character has to eat, sleep, and stay warm while he travels. It's an extra bit of challenge for the game.
Traveling through a chilly region of Skyrim.
Taking a break to warm up at a campsite.
Another challenge I wanted to complete was the Forgotten City quest. It's a spectacular mod which has won several awards.

I'm too far behind to give proper feedback, but I'll make some quick comments. If I didn't catch the typos, sorry!
@bekkasan I've really enjoyed seeing the family's trip to Champs Les Sims with the wedding, honeymoon, etc. All the couples. That hotel build is awesome! Such beautiful scenery. ...I liked the fountain of youth shots. ...Congrats on the pregnancy. ...And so cool that Derek and Kendall are staying in town!
@thuggishsplicer It's good to see all the screenshots of your game play! Neat backstory.

@TinySpaceFox I loved your sim versions of the Stardew Valley bachelors. I'm not familiar with them, but I saw your post in the other thread. Very cool! And nice job on simifying the originals. ...Fun look at the evolution of your male sims. ...And I loved your extended interview with David and Martin! You have those guys' personalities down pat. Their expressions are awesome.
@coco How wonderful to see Sun and Saville again! Awesome couple. ...Loved your Worlds without Clouds update. Sun's personality shined through that dialogue. ...Sweet screenshots of the two with baby Jeremiah. He is a doll! I like his new hair color. Genius and Easily Impressed are great traits!
@king_of_simcity7 It was interesting to see the backstory of Emily and Penny. ...Pose player certainly sends your sims flying! LOL
@Charlottesmom To answer your question. My first blood test was a 10 hour fasting draw, but the second followup didn't require fasting. The second test had better results though.
@emorrill I enjoyed seeing your CAS makeover screenshots.
@polrbear Congrats on the pregnacy for you too. Sims are having lots of babies in the thread recently! Artistic and Genius make great traits. Chase is a darling toddler.
@CravenLestat Seren is lovely. Cute cat shirt and jacket too.
@TadOlson Neat that you have cloned and repriced items for your sims. That helps them when they're just starting out.
@Nikkei_Simmer LOL at the phone calls to River and Haruo. ...Neat to see a new boarder. Good looking guy! ...I see Riverview is still having meteor trouble! Ha! ...It looks like I need to say congrats on the pregnancy to you too! So many new babies in the thread.
@Vincent_Vengeance Glad you got screenshots to work for you again. I never had a problem seeing them myself. ...I love Steve's face. Very handsome sim. Unique too.
@ddsims3world I enjoyed seeing the screenshots of Morty and Bella.
@Mikezumi Lots of ghosts in your recent screenshots! I love how they make themselves at home. It's almost like they've never left! ...Cute paintings. ...So sad about Rain and Michael passing over so close together, but kind of romantic too. ...Teen Lachie! So handsome. ...Fun family photos. ...Nice to see Oliver in the family now. And congrats on the wedding AND the baby! ...LOL at those moody expressions on Lachie's face. ...Great screenshot of Niall's dive. ...Rory is a nice looking teen. Awesome green eyes. So sad his father wasn't there to see him age up. ...Loved the latest family photos.
@PalmArrow I just started playing a save in Legacy Island III, but I really like it. It feels like a complete world. Up to date. And beautiful too. Good luck to Erica as she begins her new life there!
@MoonandStars83 Fun screenshots of your sims. Cute hairstyle on Darla.
I saw most of it. I read as many updates as I could focus on and handed out likes and awesomes all around.
Going away for over a week means hundreds of posts to get through.
Happy Simming all!
