TS2 - Legacy Cove
Week 26

Springtime with the Pandas! As we enter the 26th week at the Panda home, there's two retired elders, two adults, a toddler, and a baby bump. I expect them to be an absolute handful. Let's get started!

Yvonne had no chill when it came to getting this baby out. Monday morning and she's out at the end of the backyard giving birth. Mondays are busy. I was not prepared at all. I had just popped out there to check on her and then back into the house to check another Sim when I noticed that he was heading to "watch birth". WHAT!
I am going to wager money that this lil green-eyed guy should be a nature Sim when he starts exploring hobbies. Allow me to introduce you to Yorwyck Deppiesse! Nice to have another boy around the neighborhood, though I had names picked out for a girl.
Yvonne then set the baby on the ground and walked away. The guys had no idea what to do with it.
("There's a baby!")
("On the ground!")
Random fact: Yoren's name is from the Song of Ice and Fire books, better known by the TV series "Game of Thrones". There were several other Y- names to use for his new baby brother that might be more recognizable from the books or show, but Yorwyck caught my eye when I was checking a character list and I liked it.
Another random fact: Each adult and elder gets a dose of elixir on Monday morning. Did you know the Pandas are hiding a cowplant in their backyard? Zamaris was a Natural Scientist, one of those Ecological Gurus that goes to work only once a week wearing nothing but a few leaves. Anyway. The cowplant ate a random townie a few weeks ago so I figured we better milk the thing.
In all the chaos of the baby being born beside the doghouse and making sure the cowplant was secure, I just noticed that the mailman (Hun Pai) rushed to Yvonne's aid when he heard her screaming. What a guy!
More fun facts: Each day my Sims have family members stop by, usually a household per day. Though on big events like birthdays, anticipated funerals, and for Sunday dinner they are ALL invited. Today was Aunt Yvette's day to visit, and we could really use her help. She has no kids of her own but she's been a fantastic aunt and now a great-aunt!
And aside from a certain ghost dog that I will introduce you to soon, the rest of Monday and Monday night passed quietly.
We needed the rest, after all the baby-birthing, and with a birthday on Tuesday. There's a lot of Pandas in this neighborhood!! It can get overwhelming and exhausting fast!
The anticipating is getting to them!
(Ceera Lind, Yardley Panda, Noelle Panda)
(Kayla Panda, Yeva Panda, Vamaris Chauncellor, Shawn Panda)
(Caden Chauncellor, Pearly)
(In the back: Yung, Yamaris, Yvette)
Hey, he's not a bad lookin' kid! I was a bit worried because he had Yvonne's "devil-child" look (and he also has pointy ears that I've hidden with the hairstyle lol). But like Yvonne, he's really growing into his features! Y'all come sit down and eat while I take Yoren to get a make-over.
Well... After his cake and hamburger, of course!
And *poof*, here we go!
While this party winds down, let me talk about the ghost dog. Ahh... Agnesi. Such a good little dog back when he was living. Such an absolute little shit as a ghost. He SPECIFICALLY haunts the garden area. Pearly is usually up late and that's when the weeds start springing up. She's wet herself so many times that you'll see weeds growing around the garden area. Since Pearly is the only nature Sim, the others help out once in a while but she's become the primary target for Agnesi.
Random fact: Yorwyck poops a lot.
But diaper changing seems to be a gateway to best-friend status?
Who knew? At least since he was born early in the day Monday, his toddler spinning was on Wednesday. It seems awfully fast! But with all the dirty diapers, I'll take it!
(Excuse me, I can't get a good shot of the birthday boy!)
(Pearly, Yamaris)
(Noelle being obnoxious)
And we have a toddler in the house again! But the bear suit and that haircut doesn't work for me at all. Turns out, this kid is pretty cute too!
Yorwyck is a Sagittarius like his dad and brother. His stats are 6 clean - 2 shy - 10 active - 7 playful - 2 mean. So maybe not a nature sim. Drat. His grandma could use the help in her garden. ... But not when ghost dog is out guarding it.
I think Brandon and Yvonne have made a cute little family. Both of them have some unique features so I had concerns about their genetics coming together. The kids did 100% get Brandon's nose! (Brandon is from my old Legacy neighborhood and is the grandchild of Pao Mellon.)
Thursday night, I let Yvonne sneak out to do some stargazing. (Just watch out for the darn ghost-dog, the telescope isn't far from the garden!) I didn't realize how close she was to maxing her hobby!
Friday, Brandon had a chance card. I like to ignore these. But Brandon doesn't have a want to be top of the career (he wants to own 5 top-level businesses) and I've kept him at CEO... He kept rolling up a want to reach the top though and look what he went and did!
Turns out he's not such a fan of the helicopter ride to and from work. It's a bit noisy. Maybe I need to assign him to one of their cars. Anyway, as soon as the helicopter lifted off, along comes the school bus. Yoren also came home with big news!
Saturday is for the kids. I invited over the other kids in the neighborhood; Zyler Archer, Xyla Centowski, Winifred Lind, and Rocco Wolosenko). Saturday was also ANOTHER birthday for Yorwyck. He seems to be growing up awfully fast, but that's the way it goes. So more birthday picture spam! This time I sent them outside again because the kids plus all the Pandas was a LOT of Sims!
(Yorwyck, Yvonne, photobomb by Yamaris)
(What did Caden even do!???)
(Someone take that horn away from Noelle before she gets hurt)
(Zyler and Yoren)
(Both tinkerers and maybe potential best friends?)
Yoren looks more like Yvonne but Yorwyck here definitely has more of his dad's face. He is a total cutie though!
He immediately went to bond with his spinster great-aunts.
They sat there for hours watching the cooking channel. Yorwyck got 3 or 4 cooking points hanging out with them. I'm going to have to steal him away to go play dress-up with him now though.
I'm just in love with these two. They are adorable! That's Yoren on the left and Yorwyck on the right in the above picture. Then a little game of catch between the brothers ended up revealing Yorwyck's OneTrueHobby!
There's been some robot malfunctions this week, and after the hydrobot was contained and being repaired Vincent and Yvette jumped in to help clean. I'm taking notes because we're always looking for a sucker to 'influence to clean'.
Spring is ending and summer is almost here. It's time to say goodnigh....
Wait, they aren't in their beds. Where did they wander off t...... OH MY WRIGHT, YORWYCK, GET OUT OF THE BACKYARD!
(Yup... that's a pee puddle. Again.)
Great and I get Yorwyck inside and the ghost of Zamaris is trying to crowd into the bathroom with him.
At least so far, Zamaris has been benevolent. We're going to close up shop here before she changes her mind!
Thank you for reading! Happy Simming!
