It's that Wood Work time again. Holly's starting out this update getting straight to work with Parsley and Primrose.
Meanwhile the other kids amused themselves around the house, as it was the weekend. Sansa hung out on the slip and slide.
Snapdragon was involved in a super fierce game of computer chess.
And Birch was having himself a wild ride on the spring-riders.
The twins got potty training started.
Then they set about learning their steps.
Holly - And then you use the net to catch the fishies.
Primrose - Eww mommy, fishies gwoss!
Holly - Friendship power!
Parsley - Fwiendship powaaaaaa!
Sansevieria actually ducked into the nursery more than once in order to entertain whichever twin wasn't being skilled by mama.
And look! The baby swing FINALLY gets used.
I have to say, the interactions with it were pretty cute. And I like the fact that it fills or at least slows down their motive decays.
Birch spent some time in the sand pit, tossing dirt around.
When he was asked to help clean up, he thought he'd be clever and use his genie powers to make the house spotless and clean.
Unfortunately, that power doesn't seem to extend to dirty potties. So little Birch is forced to do it the old fashioned way.
Holly - It's just . . . so . . . SAD! Bawwwwwwww!
Uh . . . I had her upgrade the feeder to unbreakable, and she burst into tears afterward? I . . . I got nothin. O_o
Sansa tried out the new pull-up bar.
With . . . varied results.
And after a few hours of falling on her backside, decided to end the day with a nice session in the message chair.
Meanwhile Snapdragon cornered Birch outside by the jungle gym for a rousing conversation about cats. Birch looks pretty excited about it at least.
Oh, did someone say cats?
Cute kitty segue is cute.
Unfortunately Sansa was not as thrilled with Snapdragon's conversation techniques the next morning.
Even going so far as to pass out from boredom . . . come on now, Sansa, you don't have the Dramatic trait. Get up and stop faking. XD
BONUS PICS :
All the gnomes . . . almost in the street. You guys might want to relocate, I'm not entirely sure that's safe . . . .
Okay, that's one, two, three, four . . . where'd Ralphie go?
Ralphie - ICE CREEEEAAAAAAAM! >:D
It's that Wood Work time again folks! We start off today with our baby-mama hard at work on the computer, maxing out her writing skill. Maxing out the skills has become like a secondary goal for me, something for Holly to aspire to in-between babies.
Of course, the babies always come first.
Holly finds herself in an all-too-familiar position not long after that.
Birch - Wow, mom sounds pretty bad off in there . . . maybe she needs a band-aid?
I don't think that'd help little buddy, but it was sweet of you to think it.
Holly, what's with the face? Don't try and pretend like you aren't happy, because we allllll know differently.
The next skill I decide to work on is photography. She's had 4 points in it for forever, time to get that sucker maxed and out of the way. She heads down to the gym to get some shots, and lo! We spot a wild Cactus!
Cactus - I am not amused . . .
Well that makes one of us. XD
Meanwhile . . . I totally cheated, took control of Aspen and Aisling, gave them both fertility treatments and sent them to bed.
AND I AM NOT SORRY! >_< I want Linus baby!!
Next, I sent Holly to the "Memories of Hidden Springs" park. She was pretty nostalgic being there, thinking of her other children that got left behind.
Of course the serious feelings don't last for long. Some science chick came by and started a full-on conversation with the apple tree . . .
Of course the stalker-truck showed up at some point, and Holly decided she wanted to give the rainbow-pop another try.
Fail . . . the rainbow pop wins again.
Queen Ann - What . . . IS it?
Stop pestering the genie-baby, Annie.
The photo-booth failing us, I decide to put Holly's maxed inventing skill to work making a different woo-hoo possibility. Let's hope she doesn't set her pregnant self on fire.
Pesky puking interruptions . . .
Birch - . . . what? I wanted some cake. Get off me.
Um . . . in your tighty-whities? Not entirely sure that's safe, given that the cake in question is EN FUEGO.
Sansa . . . you're gonna catch h-e-double hockey sticks . . .
Sansevieria - I have no idea what you're talking about.
I seriously started to get concerned. I put Holly at 'inventing' at the station and she stood there nearly her entire pregnancy and never discovered ANYthing . . . .
Then she shows me up and decides to invent the time machine first try. Like a BAWS.
Since that's over with, I sent Holly back out to get some more pictures. We ran into some baby-mamas out and about. Here we have Gsdluver4's Audrey Green . . . having a hand-battle. Childish sims are so cute.
Not too far off was Amberwaves Maia Hespepo and Spiderg1rl's Melody Sky (pre-makeover) hanging out. Melody looks to have romance on her mind . . .
After some pictures I sent Holly back home. And JUST in the nick of time, because she went into labor before she even got to the front porch. After getting her in the nursery, she got down to the serious business.
Introducing Parsley Wood! He got the default brown hair, but he still has green skin and purple eyes! How cute is that! He was born with the Brave and Perceptive traits.
And introducing his twin sister, Primrose Wood! Green skin! Purple hair! Purple eyes! WIN! She was born with the Loner and Athletic traits.
Some time later . . .
Holly - SAAAANSSAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!1!!1!!
BONUS PICS :
Lookit! LOOKIT! A new gnome! Everyone meet Ralphie the Freezer Bunny gnome!
Ralphie fit right in with the gnome family . . . though at the moment it looks like they're waiting for death from above.
Ralphie and Midnight have some late-night fun.
Snuggles - It's like looking in a mirror . . .
Snuggles - Neville's down! Neville's down!
