Last Round - Simon got glasses thanks to the ROS. Hannah gave birth to her and Jamie's son, Nathan! The grandparents (and uncle Miles) are all delighted with him too. Miles also aged up to an adult this round, and then Nathan became a cute toddler. Aunt Winnie passed along the Park's Market ownership to Miles! He moved out of the house at the end of the round to his own place.
Who's Who in the Zoo?
Simon is the oldest son of founders Kira and Ryan Park. He has two younger sisters, Winnie and Alice. Simon married Alyssa (a surprise after his wild romance Sim youth) and they had two kids, Hannah and Miles (Miles has since moved out). Hannah's husband Jamie is a member of the Lewis clan, and they have a son named Nathan! The elder members of the household are the Parks, and Hannah, Jamie and Nathan are the Perrys.
Not sure how poor little Nathan's aspiration is so very low at the start of the round! We'll have to remedy that.
He's on the move!
I promise Jamie was also excited about Nathan's potty efforts lol.
Sooo right off the hop we had some really interesting developments. If you remember, these two had a lot of trouble conceiving Nathan - they tried for baby so many times and it just was not working. Which was bumming me out as they're both family Sims and the whole idea in my head was them living at Hannah's family home as a multi generation household. So I played the hand of God a little to make sure Hannah got pregnant with Nathan, and after that I was just going to let things take their course.
This first morning of their round, Jamie and Hannah very quickly got to autonomously trying for baby... and there were chimes!
However I remembered to roll the ROS after and.... Hannah now has to be infertile!
This is the first time I've actually rolled that one, and given their history I kind of feel like it fits? But since she is already pregnant, Nathan will get his one sibling, and then after that they're done sadly :( At least neither of them have the huge family aspiration, but the strict parent one.
Grandpa Simon helping Nathan with his motor skills!
They became best friends :)
Somebody wants french toast!
Just toddler mush for you baby boy!
Chowder would also like some please!
Hannah's got an extra appetite now, so breakfast is followed up not too long after with some chips.
Their son Miles who flew the coop last round could not stay away for too long! He popped in unexpectedly for a visit.
Up from his nap.
Alyssa makes dinner tonight!
And takes over bedtime duties for Nathan.
Smarter than your average Sim! Jamie actually autonomously sprayed the roaches rather than stomping on them. Only YOU can prevent unnecessary plagues from spreading through your household!
Oof, poor thing!
Since Hannah is not feeling so great, Simon joined Jamie today to go work at Nooboo's Treasures.
He knows how to get Karim hyped up!
Helping Ellis see the vision.
Theo has one on the way so he's probably picking out some necessities!
Good work today!
Guess I've gotta move that streetlight over a little bit!
First bump!
Parallel play with Nathan and Chowder!
Chowder being loud!
Catching up on yard work.
Still working on the walking!
Back to work, and gaining badges!
Uncle Xander was there!
Since it's winter, the workout equipment being outside doesn't make much sense. It's temporarily inside in Miles' old room, but that will have to be another nursery pretty soon. They may have to sell the home gym equipment!
Right in the midst of practicing his steps, they're interrupted...
And again by Hannah's second bump!
Goodbye little Chowder! :( It felt so soon to me, but when I looked back I realised they did adopt him back in round 13 and he was already an adult.
Reading his fitness mag.
Birthday time for little man!
Here he is! One of the rare non-Black/afro textured clay hairs I've used, but I love this little bowl cut on him! I think if I'm using the black hair colour it's less clay-looking.
He obviously favours Hannah including in his colouring, but I do see some Jamie in him. A bit early to tell though, he could go either way as he gets older.
He does want a dog though! I gave him the dog person trait, along with his existing neurotic and social butterfly.
Since he's very neat (8) he got the toy washing machine lol.
He seems to like it!
Hanging out waiting for baby to arrive.
Here we go!
Meet their new son, Benjamin Perry!
His nursery! It's downstairs next to Hannah and Jamie's room, and grandma Alyssa and grandpa Simon are upstairs next to Nathan's room.
I hadn't realised Jamie had a set of photobooth pictures from when they were teenagers in his inventory too, so I added them to the wall!
Isobel came home with Nathan after school, and she wandered into the wrong room at the wrong time lol...
Pillow fight!!
Jamie's brother Cameron stopped by.
Grandpa tickle monster!
The snow got quite heavy overnight!
It's Saturday so Nathan can enjoy the day out in the snow!
Grandpa came to join!
Got her!
Hannah also got got..
He wanted to be read to :)
Back out in the snow!
Today grandma helped with the snowman!
Time for Benjamin's birthday!
Aww little man is grumpy!
Here he is more calm. I think he looks maybe a little more like Jamie facially than Nathan does, but it's so hard to tell.
A cute little outfit for him!
Granny takes first shift for potty training.
You guys you caaaan't! :( I'm sorryyyy...
Finding some time for stargazing finally.
Oh gosh not you making me feel bad too!
That's all from them for this round!

Date: 2025-03-17 03:45 am (UTC)Think Nathan is feeling the after effects of Dave dying earlier in the round. Not 100% but i mean its a good theory
Bejamin is totally adorable, but Jamie needs a daddy's little girl so sad...maybe the aliens need to take him lol
