Last Round - The twins had a birthday and became toddlers! Jarvis was having a great time running his sports bar. Their round was mostly the girls working on their toddler skills, Jarvis working, and some visits from friends and family!
Whiskers, can't you see the girls are sleeping? Maybe now isn't the time to yowl loudly in their room?
Morning is finally here and Clementine is up and on the move.
Dad had to get Marceline going though.
Here's that attention you wanted Whiskers!
Jarvis was trying to teach Clem how to talk but she was disinterested.
A little smart milk helped to speed things up though!
Jarvis gets a little help from Estelle to enjoy his sports hobby more.
Secondary aspiration assignments continued this round. Estelle already has one so just Jarvis got his, Knowledge!
It's birthday time for the twins!
'
I'm only noticing just now that in those pictures, Clementine matches Jarvis and Marceline matches Estelle!
Here's our girls, a little more grown up!
Here's just Marcy! She really looks a lot like Estelle did at her age.
And Clem! She has a mix of features from mom and dad, but her colouring is all grandma Ines! Her eye colour could also be from her dad though (both dad and maternal grandma had blue eyes).
Some updates to the toys now that they're older.
'
The toybox is always a hit.
'
As you can see they still have matching pajamas :) They actually both aged up in the identical ones, so I kept the same nightgown but gave them different colours.
Estelle is working hard on her woodworking bench to "fill some orders" as I like to think of it. Maybe I should buy her a computer and make her send emails on it to pretend she's talking to online customers.
Jarvis heads off to work at The Scoreboard. Sister in law Paloma was there again, she really supports family because I always see her here, and at her brother Isaac's arcade too!
Back home, the snow is starting to come down!
Paolo came home after school, as per his usual! He's seen the inside of every house in the neighbourhood by now I think.
Marceline showed off her talents.
I don't think I've ever actually seen a Sim roll the want to do this before? I knew they could do it, but I didn't know it was a want. And when I'd done it before, I never actually realized it really affects that kid's personality!! I only noticed because I checked it after this time. So now I think I'll probably only use that interaction if a Sim does roll the want.
Family breakfast before school.
While the girls are at school, Jarvis sets up a little surprise - a new pet for the family, a hedgehog named Prickles! Their ROS for the round was a small pet adoption, so here he is!
Mr. Penguin, would you also like to be adopted?
Another day at work for Jarvis, although I didn't even get any other pics of it besides him arriving XD
Whiskers is the "welcome wagon" for Prickles. Poor hedgie.
Clem comes home with a good report card.
And Marcy greets their new little buddy!
Today cousin Sabine came home after school!
She didn't even know what was coming....
Yowch!
Some uhhh.. extra crispy grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner!
Clementine wanted to be read a story.
Marceline preferred to make up her own with her dolls.
It's going to be Estelle's birthday very soon, so in honour of that she went out for a birthday dinner with a few of her friends. Alice thinks she looks great!
A toast to Estelle! The other dinner guests were her sister Paloma, as well as Alice, Emily and Hollie!
Luckily I have the mod to enable build and buy mode on community lots... I wouldn't have had any tables with enough space to seat their whole party, but I was able to stick a chair on the end to accommodate everyone!
It was a really fun little get together and a different type of outing than I normally get to do in my game! I really wish Sims could age up on community lots though, it would be so fun to do a birthday party at a restaurant or rec centre or something!
I think she was talking to Sabine here, after rolling a want to be her friend? Or maybe it was Paolo? Should have kept the icon in the shot!
Digging for treasures in the yard because he's bored.
Also don't remember who she was speaking to here lol! Another kid though!
Birthday time is upon us....
Here's our elder Estelle!
Appreciative husband <3
Look who's back!
Do you wanna build a snowman?
A work of art!
Finally, someone he can have a satisfying conversation with!
Groceries were low so Estelle went out to take care of that errand.
Had a chat with Marina while she was there too.
Time for a new look for Jarvis, he's really looked the same his whole adult life! He won't be an elder himself til next round either.
He gets outside for some snowy fun with the girls, and his niece Sabine too.
And then another nephew randomly shows up, Sabine's brother Chandler!
They invited him to join them all for a spaghetti dinner that night.
And that wraps up their round! Loved seeing the girls growing up, and yet another gen 2 kid is an elder now, where does the time go!!

It's so weird that Estelle is already an elder! :o

I can't believe she's an elder already either, and one by one all my gen 2 ones will be soon which is crazy! And gen 4 kids coming sooner than late I think!
