Ian got Pia up and ready for the day while Paul made the bed
Josh was craving Grilled Cheese so that's what the family had for breakfast
Jaxon didn't have a waking wish but had a wish to break a board locked in from the previous day
Josie's waking wish was to be BFF with Jaxon but I cancelled it. She had a wish to paint something of a particular value locked in so I had her work on her painting.
Jason's waking wish was to find a seed. He's heading to a spawner in the nearby trees. Josh and Ian worked on the garden.
Paul got first stroll
Jason found a special seed. I should have him plant it to see what it is.
Josh and Jason both had wishes to reach level 6 in MA locked in so I had them spar because I knew that Josh wouldn't be able to do any MA training once he got his notice. Paul's waking wish was to catch a great fish. He fished while Ian got his stroll
When they got home, Ian finished off Pia's potty training
Then he got started on teaching her how to walk
Josh got his notice
He announced the pregnancy to Jason
I know they both want this because they had both been rolling wishes for the last few days which I always cancelled. I guess that's why Josh snuck one in while I was distracted with Paul going into labor
I think Jason should be the one doing the massaging!
Paul rolled a wish to tickle Pia
Ian and Paul danced while Pia worked on her xylophone and peg box skills
The teens did their homework when they got home from school
Jaxon came home with a wish to set a booby trap
Jaxon had a wish to spar with someone. Jason had been reading a pregnancy book on the sofa and I thought they would move to an open space but I was wrong!
Josh nearly copped a roundhouse kick to the head!
Josh was craving cheesesteak. Jaxon didn't complain because it's his favourite
Jason and Josh continued reading pregnancy books.
I got a Prom notification so I sent the teens to the Frio household.
Back at home, Pia had mastered the xylophone and was well on the way to mastering the peg box
Oh dear! And Jaxon was responsible this time!
Josie and Cort were better behaved
Ian and Paul watched Josh reading a book
Jason must have finished his book and went straight to the barre to work out.
Ian got Pia ready for bed
Paul got Pia up and ready for her last morning as toddler The toddler stage is only two days because I know I can skill my toddlers easily in that time and I want the town population to grow quickly.
The family enjoyed pancakes prepared by Ian
Jason has a wish to level up in cooking locked in so I got him started on pancakes to replace what they had eaten.
Josh has a wish to level up in mixology locked in so he was working on that. Josie and Jaxon both had wishes to be BFF with each other so I let them have it. It took a couple of interactions before the option showed up.
I have no idea why but both Josh and Jason got upset about them becoming BFFs
You can see Josh is heading towards them with "upset" in his queue. Jason stopped cooking and was on his way over as well You would think parents would be happy their kids were getting on so well!
Because it took so long getting the kids fixed up Paul was clear around the block when I found him to take a pic.
Ian did most of the gardening before Paul came home.
Because Jason had stopped cooking while he was upset and while the kids apologized to him, the pancakes were burned
Ian got his stroll when Paul returned
Pia had her birthday after she got back from her stroll.
Jason and Josh were heading off to woohoo but I didn't have to worry about another unplanned pregnancy because only Josh would try because he is family oriented. Ambitious sims will also try but I don't often play that trait.
Ian's eyes look very pretty on a child I had a hard time finding hair to frame her very strong jaw!
Ian and Paul missed the birthday because they were otherwise engaged Pia was heading autonomously to the sand box but I saw Jason appear in her queue.
He came over to complain about video games
I had three sims dancing at once! Josh didn't get to dance long, though, because Jason was finished with Pia and wanted some Josh time
Josie, being artistic, finally rolled a wish to learn the painting skill so I had her start a painting
Speaking of paintings, this is Josie's latest
I sent Ian, Paul and Pia to the park.
Josh was craving grilled cheese so I had Jason prepare some while Josh worked on his mixology skill. When the cooking was done, I had them join the others at the park
Jaxon rolled a wish to go to the park so I had the teens come straight after school. Pia is quite the talker and she and her dads were at it for ages!
When everyone had had enough talking they got out their balls!
The grownups went for a swim when they got home.
The family enjoyed Jason's grilled cheese for dinner
The usual star gazing took place after dinner
Pia and Josie worked on painting wishes
Jaxon, of course, fished
Paul rolled a wish to play a game with Pia
I woke Jaxon at around 12.30 to catch a death fish. There were families with kids arriving at the park. Sims don't seem to be very responsible parents. Kids should be in bed early on a school night! Mine always are
The family enjoyed another cooked meal prepared by Ian I think he's about level 8 now. Normally I would have a sim maxed well before now but with a genie and with sims sharing the cooking some are fairly high but no-one has been maxed.
Pia woke with a wish to bake something
She burned her first attempt
I'd sent Jaxon to harvest the eggs and he must have found the basketball hoop when he was done
Paul and Ian did the gardening. Paul cheered Ian on as he finished the last tree
Josh had been on the way to the hot tub with a drink when he went into labor
"I can't believe I did this to myself!"
I sent Josh inside to have his baby and when Ian came in to get a drink from the bar he also did the baby dance
I heard something break and found Paul at the hot tub
After breaking the hot tub, Paul came inside to flirt with Ian
Welcome Jay
Jay is a blend of his fathers and more like Josie than Jaxon.
Jay's fun bar needed filling and Josh had a wish to put him on the spring rider
Before he could get to the back door, Jason stopped him for a little flirt
I stopped them before the flirting led to woohoo and sent Josh and Jay outside.
Jay didn't want to get off
Josh got started on teaching Jay how to talk
Cort was meant to come home with Jaxon but he had art class so I sent Jaxon home ahead of him.
Josh asked Ian for a dance when he was mid-flirt with Paul
I saw Connor fishing in the yard
Pia came home with a wish to read the baking report
Josie came home late because of music class.
Reading the baking report triggered a wish to bake something.
Cort finally showed up!
Pia didn't burn her muffin this time
Josie grabbed Cort the minute he walked in the door!
Josie and Cort ended up eating outside when the meal was served. I couldn't have planned it better!
There should have been enough room at the table for all but I didn't take into account that Connor would also be called to meal! I then remembered that when one family member has been invited inside that the rest of the family is welcome.
Jaxon took care of Jay's needs
Josh was invited to Stein's party but only Pia rolled a wish to attend so I sent her alone. I was happy to see that Cristopher was now a child
Connor walked through the bedroom on his way to the back deck to read
I sent Jaxon to summon a meal for the party. Jared was there
I lost track of Jay and found him in the reading room where I had put the toybox and costume chest in my 5x5 save
Josie and Cort watched the stars
I saw from Pia's queue that she was eating the carrot cake that Jaxon had summoned. I don't like my sims eating when they are full but she's a kid and it was cake
Jason got started on Jay's potty training before settling him for the night
That was a lot of catching up I had to do but I’m up to date again. TWO new children! (the blue appears to be quite dominant haha, love it) Lara is cute indeed, it’s nice both kids are in relationships. Hope it will last. The scene where Josie and Cort are watching stars and through the open window her brother was on the bed with his girlfriend made me LOL
Thanks @JoAnne65 It's not just the blue skin that got passed on to all three kids. They are all genies as well
Of course the teens' relationships will last! No sims I put together ever break up
I will have to put curtains up in Connor and Jared's home because people looking in those windows will see a lot!
Jason got Jay up and ready for the day
The family enjoyed plum cobbler for breakfast. Jason cooked it the day before and I thought I had given him a watermelon but I must have misclicked when I was dragging the fruit into his inventory. I wanted watermelon and grape cobbler in the fridge for future pregnancies as those are the two flavours my sims wish for.
Jaxon rolled a wish to toss his little brother in the air
Ian and Paul did the gardening.
Pia had no waking wishes so I got her started on the fishing skill. She would be attending Scouts later in the day and would learn the fishing skill there but I thought she might enjoy actual fishing more
Josie finally got her wish to level up in painting! She is now level 8
Josh got the first stroll
Jason made watermelon cobbler this time
Once again, Jaxon used the basketball hoop after harvesting the eggs His athletic trait seems to be more dominant now he is a teen than his angler trait. I have had other anglers who would do nothing but fish!
Josh finished off potty training Jay when they got home from their stroll
Jason must have been lonely while Josh was busy and interrupted Ian and Paul's flirting for a chat
Jason got his stroll when Jay finishing going potty
Before he had gone too far, I directed him to the park. I had already sent Josh and he beat them even though he started out later.
Josh kept trying to talk to the NPC firefighter while Jason was teaching Jay how to walk so I had him call my SS for a chat
The teens had a field trip to the Science Facility. Gwendolyn Svard was chaperone. Either she is pregnant or she is wearing her athletic outfit although I don't think I normally use that top.
When Josh finished chatting with my SS he kept trying to talk to the firefighter so I gave up and let him. Fortunately they did not get on at all and I did nothing to smooth things over for them
I sent Paul and Ian to the park a little later
I'd forgotten to add toddler toys to the park when I set up the town so Jay had to play with his teddy while his dads spent some time together.
I remembered that the teens were going to Prom so I sent everyone home. Jay worked on his peg box skills
I invited Cort and Lara over while the teens did their homework.
They arrived while the kids were still doing their homework so I had Jason invite them in.
Jason tried to talk with Lara but Jaxon went straight for her when he was done Josie didn't waste any time getting to Cort either
Jaxon is a naughty boy!
Josie and Cort are just as bad and were about to do the same
They didn't manage it, though, because they went for the same bed as Jaxon and Lara Meanwhile, Josh decided he wanted to chat with Lara
The limo arrived before the kids could get in any more trouble
They looked lovely
Pia got home late because of Scouts.
Because she didn't get her favourite on her birthday because of Josh's pregnancy craving, I had Jason summon grilled salmon for dinner
Paul's state of undress is the only explanation you need for why he and Ian were late to dinner
Ian and Paul watched the stars
Pia had a wish to learn minnow bait and to catch a goldfish so I sent her fishing.
Jason and Josh watched the stars after a quick skinny dip in the pool
I saw Paul heading to Jay and was happily surprised when he played with him
Since he was already carrying him, I had him settle him for the night as well
Ian had a wish to play a game with Pia
The teens came home hungry so I had them eat before going to bed. They were voted Queen and King of Prom
Josh got Jay up and ready for his last morning as a toddler
The family enjoyed the waffles cooked by Jaxon recently
Ian and Paul did the gardening.
Jaxon harvested an exotic egg
Jason got first stroll
Jaxon practised dunking when he was done harvesting the eggs. The pond is closer to the chicken coop than the basketball hoop but he must really like exercising!
He should have stuck to fishing
Pia autonomously played in the sand pit
Josie rolled a wish to level up in guitar so I had her get started on that. It could take a couple of days because I don't like to direct my sims much and she often chooses the piano over the guitar. Josh was working on his wish to level up in mixology
Josh got his stroll before Jay's birthday
The grownups gathered around for Jay's birthday. I didn't want to wait until the kids got home from school.
Jay's favourite colour is purple. I might need to work on the colour of his top a bit later.
He stayed cross-eyed until it was time for cake
Josh asked Paul for a dance while Jay asked Jason for a game of catch
I sent the family to the bowling alley after Jason and Jay had had a brief game of catch Jay introduced himself to Jared Frio, now an adult.
Jason started a game of bowling while Josh ordered a drink.
Paul and Ian went for woohoo the second they walked in the door!
Jay chose to play an arcade game
Jason didn't get to finish his game
Instead of woohooing, the boys went their separate ways. Jason started another game of bowling and Josh danced.
I made Ian and Paul play pool to stop them from woohooing again
Jaxon and Josie joined the boys after school.
Pia came a little later
I found Jaxon playing pool by himself upstairs
Josie took a little tumble
Jay and Pia got to know each other
Jason and Josh had a little photobooth fun
Ian joined Jaxon at the foosball table while Paul played pool on his own
I sent the family to the Diner for dinner
Jaxon rolled a wish to take a photo with a friend. Jason wouldn't take his eyes of Josh
The kids played chess to unlock the logic skill gained from the peg box.
I've seen Jaxon checking himself out before but it only occurred to me today that he does it because I gave him the flirty trait on aging up
Paul and Ian watched the stars
Jason and Josh watched the house
The kids had several potions wishes from unlocking the logic skill
