The Sims 2
Week Three in the Cove
Really, I need to do something more productive around here. But... But... So addicted to seeing how this family grows! Tomorrow is a new day though. Tomorrow I'll work on some things that I'm supposed to be doing.
Until then.... Amaris, would it help you at all to know that you have this awesome big house now? GO BIG OR GO HOME, I always say. Right now the upstairs is not being utilized but I went ahead and chopped it into rooms and put some carpet down. Look at all that space! There's so much more room for activities now!

Also... I want to mention that I never looked in Amaris's inventory until Zachariah grew up and I went to stuff his crib in there. My jaw dropped! Look at all these goodies she has tucked away! THEY ARE RICH!
Now... Confession time. Several of the Twinks started freezing after a snowball fight in the winter. For almost the whole spring, Lindsay Mizry kept strolling by the house but she'd walk back off the lot almost immediately. I tried to click on her to greet her but got the "no actions available" dead-end. So I teleported her in, then accidentally added her to the household. It's a good thing that I mis-clicked that because she was freezing to death. Seriously!
Hahahaha... I mean, sorry Lindsay! I sent her to have a bubble bath and then a nice hot meal with the family. She quit chattering and her skin turned back to it's normal color so I kicked her back out. But she's fine now. No deaths yet. And for that, I must apologize to Amaris. The Queen of sim deaths!
My sim-self Carissa Pepper also stopped by to use their computer. I'm sure it was to keep this blog going. I also tricked myself into helping clean the house. Sucka! Oh... wait... Sigh.
So where are we? Oh, yes. Amaris is carrying baby #2 and Zachariah is a toddler. He has already lit up tinkering as his hobby of choice, thanks to the kiddie table. I am kinda sad he didn't get science like Mom & Dad but variety is the spice of life, right?
Zach's birthday came up before it was baby time. Yay! Party time! Please ignore the frozen Gypsy in the background. She is okay and is still living also. Do not be alarmed!
Zach's stats are 3 (sloppy) - 3 (shy) - 9 (active) - 9 (playful) - 10 (nice). Awesome! He's a Sagittarius and as I mentioned before he likes tinkering. This kid is a keeper. I love Sags!
With Zachariah needing his own bed, I finally decided to make use of the rooms upstairs. It's still a bit bare but his room is totally cute. Most of his toys are downstairs in the nursery/playroom, so I'm still working on what to fill his room with. He's got great views of the water from his room too. I'm totally jealous and want this house and his room for myself.
Bobbi Wetninja and Silia Medrano were our midwives this time. Bobbi freaked out. Silia apparently won a betting pool. Ladies, I'm shaking my head at both of you. No help at all!
May I present to you, Miss Zamaris Archer! We have a girl this time! She has the same brown hair from Amaris and custom green eyes from her dad. I'm wanting to keep those custom eyes around as long as possible so the more kids that have it, the happier I am!!
By the way, Silia. I see you back there. You really need to be trying harder. If you want to marry into the royalty Zane and Amaris are breeding here, TRY to look happy. So far, I award you no points.
Since the babies look pretty much identical, I didn't get a whole lot of shots of Zamaris as a baby. But I DID get pictures of Amaris being a less than stellar parent. Tsk tsk!
Fear not, after Bobbi & Silia went off to throw water balloons at each other Amaris did get her act together and got that baby up off the floor. Another confession... I realized Zamaris was on the floor possibly because I forgot to take the crib back out of Momma's inventory. Oopsie!
Seriously, though, Zane and Amaris are pretty good parents. Amaris didn't have a lot of toddler skilling wants for Zach, but she made up for it when he aged up to a child. She wanted to see him get good grades and grow up well, all that other good stuff. Zach likes to use the skilling items to get his fun meter full after a long day at school, even if that does include burping into the teleprompter... Ahem. But mostly he is drawn to all things tinkering and wants to do his homework every evening.
And... it's birthday time again, this time to toddler up Zamaris. I'm so excited! Can't wait to see if she is as cute as her brother!
(Silia and Toots, see how Julie is celebrating with the family? Please take notes!)
Presenting Miss Zamaris Archer! Her stats are 7 (neat) - 3 (shy) - 5 (active) - 4 (serious) - 8 (nice). She's a Cancer like her parents, but she also quickly flagged tinkering as her hobby thanks to the tot table.
How cute is this kid! And because she's adorable, I of course took more pictures of her. There's also a pic with my own Makayla Pepper taking care of her. Good job, kiddo!
Because this family doesn't have enough going on, we made two more additions. You KNOW what happens to a family sim's want panel when their baby grows up to a toddler. Since their track record is good so far and both parents rolled up lots of skilling wants this time, I indulged again.
The second addition is Astro. Zach wanted a pet and I figured with his parents preoccupied with Zamaris and the bun in the oven, the dog would be a good companion for Zach.
That's enough for one week! I'll be back soon with more kids and birthdays and green eyed cuties!

Phew! That's a lot going on for one week for sure! The kiddos are so cute and Astro is adorable.
