Legacy Cove - Week Seventeen - 1001 Bamboo Blvd

     Welcome back to the Panda house!  Home to Rob, Zamaris, and Yung, recently graduated from Uni and back at the family homestead.  

     The week is starting off so crazy, as Yung's girlfriend Pearly has been "cheating" on him with her ex-boyfriend Xane Centowski.  Xane and Yung are cousins and truth be told when Xane and Pearly 'broke up', I just never properly broke them up.  It's been a tangled mess. 

     What!  A!  Mess!  

     At least Ruby the schnoodle is making the effort to play nice, even with the mailman.  There's quite a few dogs in the neighborhood that like to chase the mailmen so this is a nice change of pace!

     The funny thing is, Pearly is angry at Xane too for cheating on HER.  What a love triangle.  What a mess.

     Yung definitely has a lot to work on this week.  He has to fix his relationship, learn the ropes of adulting, and also his lifetime want of being Poseidon's Hand.  At least in one of these things he's succeeding!

     So proud of him!  My go-getter sim this generation has been Zoey Archer, but Yung is about to give her a run for her money because he's about to knock this week out of the park!

     They did it!  We better tie this knot fast, before anyone flirts with the wrong sim again!  Let's go test out the new chapel.

     As it turns out... this wedding arch will not work on community lots.  I tried to get them under the arch but they didn't quite center up like I tried, plus no one changed into their pretty wedding clothes.  There's not going to be a take two here, so it is what it is.  Sorry, Pearly.  Looks like you got a Justice of the Peace style wedding instead of the big hoorah.  

     Even if they aren't in fancy formal clothes, they still have some good pictures from the event and the goal was to be married.  That they are!  Congratulations Yung and Pearly Panda!

     So we welcome Pearly to the Panda household.  Pearly is a nature-loving Aquarius.  Her stats are 4 messy - 3 shy - 5 active - 7 playful - and 6 nice.  She wants to become a Criminal Mastermind.  Yung must like the bad girl type.  

     Karma has a way of balancing things out though.  Fights, break-ups, make-ups, weddings, and ... a funeral.  Rob!  No!  

     Don't you dare look at those Hula girls!  He's the first of my "gen two" to go, and I'm so sad!  Even if he was just married into the family, he's still considered part of that generation through the marriage.  

      RIP Rob Panda.  Husband of Zamaris Archer Panda, father of Yvette, Yamaris, Yung, Yardley, and Yeva.  He wanted to have six grandchildren but unfortunately never got to see any of them.  I'm devastated!

     We've had happiness, we've had tears.  Slapping and proposals.  So many ups and downs.  We've had some passive-aggressive behavior.  

      Yeva has this attitude of, "What are you crying about?  He was MY father and you cheated on my brother."   Pearly, I'm not sure all of the family has forgiven your cheating ways yet, even if Yung has.  It's okay, because he's the one that counts.  

     You know what usually mends a broken Sim's heart though?  

     Puppies.

     Welcome Princess Peach, Penny, and Pyro!   

      Usually the male pups stay with the family so I can spread out the breeding (since the males can be daddies still when they are elders).  Princess Peach is the first to be adopted and sent to live with Yamaris. 

     I have some trouble sending Penny off to live with Yvette, as she thinks she is too "poor" for a puppy even though she wants one.  Yvette and Penny adore each other as well so I had to send Penny to the adoption service, have Zamaris gift her some items to sell at home, then have Yvette adopt her.  Everything has to be so messy with the Pandas this week!  Calm down!

     Yung truly is devoted to his new wife.  They stalk each other every where.  

      Pearly's been taking a lot of naps lately.  I'd like to present you with the !BUMP! picture that I like so much but her pajamas didn't morph right away.  

      So ... she went to some default PJ's for a day....

      Then somehow it worked itself out by the 2nd bump?

      Sims, I'll never understand you.  I don't even pretend to have you figured out.  Especially when you are at your cousin's house for Sunday dinner and get angry with yourself and I have no idea why.  (Looking at you, Xavier Centowski)

      Please stay tuned for Week Eighteen for the big reveal of Yung and Pearly's firstborn!  This family has had enough excitement for one week, we need to take a rest.

Legacy Cove - Week Seventeen - Archer House

     We've done it again, made it through another week and here we are at WEEK SEVENTEEN!  This is so wild.  

     So we start off at the top of the list, the Archer family.  Second gen Zachariah and his wife from the old Legacyville, Antoinette, and their son Zack along with his wife Toots, and little baby Zakki, first of generation four!  

     We're going to jump right into the week here with a birthday.  It's been so long!  I'm so excited!

     One last look there at infant Zakki.  Let's see what she's inherited from Zack and Toots on the genetics.  SO EXCITING!

     Don't think for a moment I'm not still going to go through the whole song and dance here for the birthday shindig.

      Go on!  GO ON!!  TOSS THAT BABY!!

     .... what's going on.   She was fed, she slept, no sign of a diaper needing to be changed.  Do not play with my emotions, kid.  I don't like difficult children.  

     ....... Party ended, still no tossing.  This kid is grounded and she's still in diapers. 

     ............ FINALLY, here we go, show is back on!

     What are you guys even doing outside in the wintertime....?   As an infant she was only in her diaper....  Hmmmm....  Well, at least we have a toddler now!  AND SHE'S SO CUTE!

      Oh, and we have another surprise.  

     *BUMP!*  Baby #2 is on the way.  Don't worry though, Toots.  You are a horrible pregnant sim, but this is the core house and they need a spare.  I'm sure you read the fine print when you married into this house.  But two and that's it, trying not to over-populate the neighborhood too quickly.  If you have twins though, we're going to have words.

     Toots isn't the only pregnant gal in the 'hood though.  Deb is also knocked up, by her husband Xane, no one panic, and we have our pregnant women Olympics here with the synchronized pee'ing.

     New grandpa Zachariah is really digging his new namesake, by the way!  And there's new dad Zack in the background AND founder Zane in the picture on the wall.  Four generations of Archers!

     *BUMP!*  Time's getting closer, Toots might live through another pregnancy yet.  This time hasn't been quite as rough as the first though.

     The next 25 hours passes quickly and before you know it, it's time!  Quick, everyone, to the bedroom!

     I see where little Zakki gets her uncooperativeness.... Could you have at least picked a place to give birth where I could have gotten some decent pictures?  

     This one better be a boy, I can't deal with more of you Savoy women.  

     It is!  It's a boy!  Blonde hair, brown eyed, just like his big sis.  

     Guys and gals, meet Zavoy!!  (Oh, I know you Twinks reading this love his name)

     Time to let dad get a peek, don't worry, this isn't the twin pass.  It's a single birth, whew.  

     While everyone else is busy meeting the new baby, Zakki couldn't care less.  She's busy bonding with Avery, the schnoodle.  

     Night time births are pretty exhausting for everyone, so thank goodness for Zinc.  I have a love/hate relationship with these servo bots.  

      I'm delighted by these great family pics snapshots they give me in this house though.  Smiley, happy family, yay!  Zakki has some features from her momma, but definitely takes on the coloring of her daddy.  

     If you've forgotten what Toots looks like on the regular and not in her pregnancy clothes, I got a good pic for you.  I think she feels much better and more in the mood for pics right now too!

     It's time for another birthday for little Zakki.  It feels so soon!  What a whirlwind of a week this has been so far.   But I love birthdays, so let's do this!

     And everything is happening right on target this time!  One, two, three, JUMP!  *Poof* and now she's a child!

     Now it's time to play dress-up!  This is the second best part of the birthdays.  First best is having all the family there, especially elderly aunts in their bathing suits in the middle of winter that are startled by toddlers turning into children (*cough* Zayna *cough*).   Okay, ahem, let me introduce you to the new and improved, ZAKKI ARCHER!

      She's such an angel =)

     Oh, i forgot to give ya'll her stats.  She's 3 messy, 4 shy, 9 active, 9 playful, and a whopping 1 nice point.. Making her a Sagittarius.  That snow angel is a lie.  The real Zakki comes out at night...

     You'd think we'd had enough going on this week, but wait, there's more!

     Little Zavoy is MUCH more cooperative.  He twirled up into a toddler right away.  What a darling boy!

     Zavoy's stats are 3 messy, 10 outgoing, 10 active, 1 serious, and 3 mean.  Doing a little better than his sister.  He's a Gemini and like his sister he's got some of his mommy's features but his dad's coloring.  The brown eyes come from grandma Antoinette.  

     BUT WAIT!  There's one more update!

     We are welcoming lil Amos into the house, too!  Good Wright, it's full around here now!   

     And there's some other occupants that have been suspiciously quiet but lurking and watching....

     Till next time (You behave Amaris, I mean it.  These kids need their parents & grandparents!)

(I've heard all about your own game, Amaris, you keep your hauntings outta here)
