TS2 - Legacy Cove - Week 25
101 Bayview Drive
It's winter at the Lind house, home of Zoey & Frazier Lind, and their son Walter along with his wife Julie and newborn Winifred! I'm so excited to see little Winifred grow up this week so here we go!

Winifred Lind
I completely forgot to take a picture of little Aspen, their blonde schnoodle. He's such a great Sim pup. Really, they all have some really well behaved and socialized dogs in this neighborhood. The mailman gives them two thumbs up, which is a big deal because I'm pretty sure one of the mail carriers in the old Legacyville was missing his thumbs from an incident!
I digress. So just a reminder, Zoey is starting off this week a day after her momma Toots passed. Always, the inheritance money helps soothe the grief. Especially for a Fortune Sim.
Monday is also Winifred's first birthday! I'm so excited to learn all about her, as her grandma Zoey and dad Walter are some of my darlings in Legacy Cove. It helps that they are so pretty to look at too! Oh, I can't wait to meet toddler Winnie!
Of course, half the neighborhood seemed to be here for the party! She's got a bigger family than most, being both a Lind and an Archer! But... so embarassing... she didn't age up after blowing out the candles. Winifred actually fought growing up so hard, I had to exit without saving later and start over. LUCKILY, I always save before big events. So a little fast foward through the party... and it still took a diaper change, a feeding, and a nap, but we're now the proud household of a toddler!
Well, if there's one thing I can say about Generation Five... they all look unique. Hopefully she's just an awkward toddler.
So Miss Winifred Lind is a Leo. Her stats are 3 messy - 10 outgoing - 6 active - 3 serious - 7 nice. I'm intrigued. It'll be awesome if she rolls Popularity and be like her great-grandma Toots! With 10 outgoing points, if she doesn't get Popularity I'm pretty sure I'll make it her secondary.
Then, speaking of her great-grandmother Toots....
My heart! Toots was a Music and Dance hobbyist. These kids channeling in their ancestors is the best thing so far this generation!
I was delighted with this, and played along with a chance card for Frazier. Honestly, I usually just ignore them. This was risky considering he's an elder and a Fortune Sim. But it turned out very nicely!
That's not all that Tuesday brought to us either! Surprise! I think Ceera's face sums it up.
Wednesday rolled by and gave us our second baby bump that evening.
Friday morning arrived and it's another birthday later this day for Winifred! She's had a big week. Monday was Grandpa Frazier day (he was the only one off work and I felt we could trust him with an infant that sleeps, eats, and wets itself occassionally). Tuesday was Grandma Zoey day. Wednesday, Mommy & Me day. Thursday, Daddy (and Mommy) day. Friday, Walter, Julie, and Frazier all had the day off work to pitch in on toddler duties. It made prepping for the party a lot easier!
So did their Smart Investing! Their bank account has taken a big surge forward this week. It makes the Fortune couple very happy.
Okay then, it's party time!
Winifred did indeed grow into her features a bit more! The eyebrows aren't quite so overpowering on her face, and the 'philtrum' (area between nose and lip) doesn't look so long anymore.
See? Look how cute!
I'm not sure exactly of the family relation between Winifred and Zaryn (Walter and Zavoy are cousins so maybe second cousins?), but they took an immediate liking to each other and to the cake!
I like that picture above because they have such very different profiles! Either Zaryn has one heck of a honker or Winifred's nose is very tiny. Personally, I think it's both.
Winifred also makes some entertaining faces! I like watching her expressions!
Oh, and by the way.... Party's over, folks.
Or, hey, everyone crowd into the dining room and watch Julie spin out a baby.
It's another girl! Welcome Wendolyn Lind (please don't say the name outloud. Winifred was a hard name to follow up and I was all settled on Wendolyn until I realized there were repetitious sounds. I spent an hour debating on whether it mattered and decided, "This is a game. Get it together and name the kid what you want!")
She has Grandpa Frazier's blue eyes! I love the genetics in this game!
Whew. Well, while everyone is coo'ing over the baby I'm going to get Winifred's big girl room set up and give her a quick make-over.
Abracadabra and here we are! New room with potential for lots more personal touches as Winnie ages, and she's looking damn cute in her new hair!
Kid day Saturday is also back in effect! There's only 3 kids right now, Zaryn Archer, Xyla Centowski, and Winifred, but that's enough for them. They had a great time playing together and Winnie was worn out early.
And I feel like we should all be tired and need to lay down for a bit. I forgot how exhausting these babies, toddlers, and kids can be! So that should be enough for ONE week, right? Haha.
Happy Simming, and thanks for reading!
