Welcome back to another chapter of The Kennedy Legacy. As you can see, I'm definitely making good use of my "social distancing." I'm still teaching, but it's been an odd version of that. They've basically made it so the kids are doing their work online, but we're available for assistance. So I've been able to play during the day off and on while still grading, and responding to emails/phone calls/etc. from parents. We unfortunately start this chapter off on a sad note, Wendy has passed away. Elder kitties don't seem to live very long which makes me really sad.
However, on a happier note, Gideon is becoming a toddler!
He has blonde hair like his Dad, which is awesome! I hope some of the girls this generation get the blonde hair, generation 2-6 heiresses have all had black hair.
He is also a mermaid. Since Gideon is not a girl, Nadine is pregnant again!
Gideon: Mommy, where did all the sparkly confetti come from? Can I play with it?! Gideon: Well, if they won't let me play with the pretty confetti I will steal this remote from their dresser.
This pregnancy was pretty rough on Nadine, with nausea and vomiting happening throughout the entire pregnancy.
Luckily, her pregnancy is over and she is going into labor!
It's a girl! 16 rolls the name Ximena! Gideon isn't happy about his new sibling according to his moodlet, but he still comes in and talks to her while she's in her crib.
Nate has been abducted by aliens! Thankfully even though there was room in the house he did not come back pregnant. I wouldn't mind an alien baby, but I'd like to finish the main babies in the house first.
Ximena's toddler birthday arrives fairly quickly given the time of night she was born. She aged up looking a lot like a boy though, so we'll have to give her something cute!
She's adorable! I really like her, I'm excited to see how she grows up. She's also a mermaid.
Speaking of growing up, today is Gideon's child birthday!
Also, side note, am I the only one that ages the kids up at 12:01 am on their birthday? Like literally as soon as it's their official birthday I'm aging them up (especially the toddlers.) Gideon is really cute. I'm pleased with this generation so far.
Nadine is pregnant again! And because Nate was in the bathroom with her, she didn't even stand up after she took the test so I was able to get a cool confetti picture.
She then told him about the pregnancy while still on the toilet. Also, I need to add more decorations in here on the walls or something. It's looking pretty bare. Patches has become an elder kitty.
Nate has been abducted for a second time. This time he won't be able to get pregnant since Nadine is currently pregnant.
I love this because it looks like her arms are crossed while talking to the stuffed animal almost like a "why aren't you talking to me" or "what did you just say to me" type attitude lol.
Um, Nadine? What are you drinking?
Nadine: "The energy drink that my eSports team gave me, it helps me get focused." Are you sure that's safe for the baby? I'm pretty sure that would be harmful. Nadine: "Idk, I'm just trying to win my tournament." But what about the baby.... Nadine: "She'll be fine..." After her match, which she did win, she begins working on her school project.
Nadine: "which of these blank pieces of paper should I add to my project board?" Ximena really likes Josie, and will follow her around. Prior to this picture, Ximena was imitating her, which I didn't even know was a thing.
Gideon has completed his artistic prodigy aspiration, up next will be rambunctious scamp.
Time for Ximena to become a child already? That doesn't seem possible!
She aged really nicely, though I will say with Maxis modified this hair to work for kids they made the shadow look really weird. Luckily, it's not as noticeable outside of CAS.
I like her, she immediately cleaned up the dishes after her make over. Though, her freckles bugged which sucks. Apparently my family cats just like to get sick, Patches is sick.
Josie has become an elder kitty,
Baby number three is about to be born!
It's a girl! She also got a number 16 which rolled the name Harper.
Harper was born close to midnight and not a lot happened the day after and so soon it's her birthday!
She aged up really nicely, she's super adorable! Harper is also a mermaid. Does anyone know if this breeds out, or if there's a chance for a sim to be born without it? I don't want to use the mermadic kelp unless I have to.
And how cute is this outerwear outfit?!
Also, her freckles bugged too :( Patches is sick...again.
So, I was originally going to try to have one more kid (once there was room) to try to get a blonde heiress. But I simulated a roll in which there were 3 children and one with just the 2 girls and both times Harper won the roll. So, I decided to just leave it at these three kiddos and Harper will be our heiress. Ximena has completed her rambunctious scamp aspiration. Up next I gave her Whiz Kid.
Gideon has completed his aspiration on a software that looks a lot like one I use with my students for math practice. Next I gave him whiz kid also so he can do the chess requirements with his sister.
Josie is sick now, apparently that's just a thing these cats in my family do.
Nate has been abducted for a third time, I guess the aliens really like him. There's no room in the house though still, so he won't be getting pregnant this time.
Ximena: "Dad, you're reading us this story again? You've been reading us the same story for two hours."
Oh no, Patches has passed away, in a puddle of water no less :(
Nate has grown into an adult. He has a few extra wrinkles, but he looks good.
Josie is sick...again....
However, after getting cured, she goes and plays with Harper while she works on her skills. Nate has been abducted for a FOURTH time. This is getting ridiculous. There was room in the house this time, but he didn't get pregnant.
Gideon has completed his aspiration, just in time for his birthday.
Soon he's blowing out the candles of his very blue cake.
Wow! Gideon is VERY handsome. He got the jungle explorer aspiration, which I'm sad about. I want to do that one but I wanted to do it on an heir. So I haven't decided whether or not I'll complete it or not.
Josie has passed away. This is a sad chapter, all the kitties died in the same chapter.
Time for Harper to become a child!
Oh wow, she's super cute. I think she's my favorite right now.
Ximena: "I just wanted to let you know, I'm not upset that you're the heiress or anything. But I'm really excited to have a girl to play with."
While I was taking the last picture, I noticed that they're all wearing overall type clothes, and the two heiresses have very similar looking ones on. That's where we'll leave this chapter. I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope to have another chapter out very soon! In the meantime, check in with me over at BoolProp or on my Twitch Stream! Score |
