Belmonte Name Game 1.3

The O twins now have their cribs in the living room, so the X twins can sleep in the nursery.

I am so happy now Oscar and Ocean know how to use the potty! It saves so much time.

The three oldest kids have a great bond, and they are practically taking care of themselves. That's great, as their parents really have their hands full with the two sets of twins.

Five birthdays today! First up is Huda. She rolls Family/Popularity with the LTW to become General. She's stunning!

Next are the O twins. They also age up very cute. It's really going to be hard to pick a heir!

Last but not least, Xyla and Xante. Xyla is the one with black hair, while Xante's hair is brown.

Their house is getting far too small by now, so I moved them to another one. My wife built it.

This is what it looks like on the inside. They ran out of funds, so it isn't completely furnished yet. Actually, I was lucky I could buy 7 cheap single beds, as I went a little overboard with money while furnishing the lower floor. The spare room on the ground floor will be for the elders when I reach the next generation, and of course I will upgrade all the kids bedrooms when money starts coming in.

Here's Xyla throwing a tantrum because she can't catch the butterflies, while sitting on the middle of the road. Great parenting, you guys.


While having 7 kids in the house is very chaotic, it also has its good sides: always someone around to help with your homework!


The nursery is actually the only room that is completely decorated already. It has four cribs, two potties and a changing table.


A real benefit of having this many kids around, is the older ones can help with their younger siblings. I really don't know how I would've survived this without Percy and Huda!


Percy booty called Meadow, but they only flirted for a bit and started a pillow fight in the spare bedroom. It was adorable.



Yay! No more toddlers! For this generation, that is.


Aww, look at that proud mommy Phlox. By now, she had rolled the want to have another baby (and the want to have 10 kids). I'm sorry honey, but your name just doesn't have any letters left!

Link has his teen birthday and he looks just like his dad! He is now a Family/Romance Sim and wants to become Hall of Famer.


I think this is as close to a family meal as this family will ever come. Link, Oscar and Xyla are missing; they are taking a shower.


Both Link and Huda have crushes! Link is head over heels in love with Ivy Copur, while Huda has fallen for Alvin Futa.


When it's weekend, all the children are hanging out together, building their relationships. I never played a household with 7 kids before, but I'm not disappointed!


They finally have enough money to furnish some of the kids bedrooms!

It's birthday time for the O twins! Ocean rolls Knowledge/Family with the LTW to become World Class Ballet Dancer, while Oscar is now a Popularity/Family Sim and wants to graduate 3 children from college.


They find possible future spouses: Ocean finds a boyfriend in Randy London, Oscar gets a crush on Chloe Gonzaga. I'm not sure if any of their current boyfriends/girlfriends actually will be their spouse when one of them is chosen heir, but it's nice to have options. I'd like to have more genetic variation to be honest...

I kind of neglected Phlox and Xavier in this update; I guess that's what you get when you have 7 kids. Here they are though, both skilling to get promoted. They are both at level 6 in their careers, Phlox in Law Enforcement and Xavier in Adventurer.


Finally, the last three kids bedrooms are also furnished. Now they have to make some more money to furnish the elder bedroom and buy a bit more decoration, but it's definitely starting to look good.



Phlox becomes an elder, which makes me kind of sad. She is a lovely founder and I don't want her to go already!


And finally, it's time for the X twins to grow up! I wanted to play all the way up til this birthday, so I could start a heir poll.

Here they are. Xante rolled Romance/Knowledge with the LTW to become Education Minister, Xyla is now a Popularity/Romance Sim who wants to own 5 top-level businesses.

Don't forget to vote in our heir poll! We'll soon find out who I'm going to play next, I can't wait!

Crimson Falls BACC - Week 11: Rossi

Current family members:

Last week, Marsha became an elder. Josie accidentally got pregnant with her boyfriend Olaf, and gave birth to a little boy named Arthur. Abbie became a teen, and alien baby Ollie had two birthdays. By the end of the week, Arthur aged into a toddler.

We started the week at the Rossi household with Abbie throwing a stick for Frankie, while making funny faces.

Meanwhile, little Arthur was so sad his teeth came out of his chin.
  

Abbie got an unexpected visit while trying to improve her logic skill. Luckily she can't get pregnant.

Marsha used the unused genie lamp they had, to wish for money 3 times. Need to get another university!

Olaf came over to spend some time with his son (and with Josie, of course, but I made sure she didn't get pregnant again).

Tako got promoted to level 10 of the Science career! It wasn't his LTW, but he's happy anyway. It also opens one position in Intelligence.

Abbie taught her nephew how to use the potty.

Ohh, Arthur... He's such a mischievous little guy.

Tako doesn't look too happy about becoming an elder. I do think he is still very handsome.

            

He taught his (step-)grandson how to talk, which made him very proud.

It's a double birthday, both mother and son are aging up!

Here they are. By now, I have installed the mod that would fix the weird eyes on alien-offspring. So when Josie aged up, her alien eyes actually appeared!

Arthur's dad Olaf moved in with them, bringing 9,000 Simoleons which is nice.

Olaf Bertels is a family/fortune Sim with the LTW to graduate 3 children from college. He is incredibly outgoing and I think he is one of my favourite townies, so I'm happy he's playable now!

Josie was lucky: the same night she became an adult, there was an open position in the Music career.

Guys, it wouldn't hurt if you delayed the baby-making until you have a place of your own...

Olaf ditched his level 2 job in Politics to take a level 2 job in Business. He doesn't have a career-based LTW, so I guess it's now my strategy to try to get as much business tycoons as possible.

So much for waiting to have a second baby. It looks like Josie is knocked up already!

Frankie the dog had some fun with a stray named Maxx. Looks like Josie isn't the only one to have a baby.

Josie got her first pop. I'm not entirely used to her black eyes yet.

Ollie had a birthday! He rolled Fortune/Pleasure, and his LTW is to become celebrity chef.

Pop! It's going to be a close call, will the baby be born in this rotation or the next?

Tako finally maxed out his body skill, something he had wanted for quite a while.

Abbie (I love her facial expressions) had worked hard to increase her odds of going to university. She had to roll lower than 25, but sadly she rolled 78 so she didn't get in.

I put Olaf and Josie's promotion pics together. Olaf got promoted to level 4, while Josie ended this week at level 3 of her career.

Hey, look who walked by! It's Maxx, probably checking if Frankie had his babies yet.

Olaf and Max had became friends by now, so he decided to adopt him. He'll move out with Olaf, Josie and Arthur. They changed his name to Winston, as there already is a Max in Crimson Falls and I don't want to get confused.

Olaf, Josie, Arthur and Winston moved out. Their baby will be born next rotation, in their own home.

This family was able to pay 140,000 to the university fund.
