Xochitl gives stinky Vince a bath from his blowout.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Karmine is off to school, and I choose for her to try and make some friends. Again, hopefully she will meet some boys.<\/p>\n

By the end of Karmine’s school day, she ends up meeting another teenager who is a boy. I guess I will attempt to make him her boyfriend.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

However, as Karmine is taking a shower, I take a look at her Wants. Maybe it’s not a boyfriend she is going for after all. Maybe this will also put her in a better mood.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I have Karmine invite Maira over. I have her perform some Friendly interactions first. Have her get to know Maira a bit more. Then it’s time to lay on the Flirt and other Romantic interactions. I think Maira likes it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While Karmine is hitting it off with Maira, Geordi is home from work and taking care of infant Vince’s Needs as well as playing with him. Vince is able to achieve a few milestones because of it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Overnight while everyone was asleep, I get a notification that Luna Villareal passed away. Oh my. I wonder what happened to her. Karmine is going to be sad from this when she wakes up.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It’s a new day. Geordi has it off. Xochitl doesn’t. So she will be going into work later. Karmine has school and work. It’s family breakfast time. Vince has not achieved the Sit Up milestone yet, so he can’t join the family. There’s a few more in-game days before he ages up, so it’s possible he reaches that and can join the family for a meal before he becomes a toddler.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Since Karmine is at school and infant Vince is sound asleep in his crib, I give Geordi and Xochitl some workout time together. Geordi autonomously starts flirting with her as they work out. How cute.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Later in the day in the afternoon, infant Vince gets bottle fed and then time in his playset by himself. This is when he achieves another milestone. This one however he does on his own without the help from either of his parents. Way to go, Vince!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As Xochitl is cleaning the bathroom, she receives a new Personality Trait.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As Karmine arrives home from school, Xochitl heads out to work. Look at the two smile at each other as they pass by.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Maira comes over to visit Karmine. Time to move things along with these two. But it looks like Maira is beating me to the punch!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At work, Karmine is given a little extra responsibility. Her heart and design skills are in the right place. Unfortunately, the end game wasn’t so favorable.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When Xochitl arrives home from work a little after 9pm, I already have Geordi in bed. He has a 6am start time for his job in the Astronaut Career<\/strong>. He needs his beauty sleep.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Karmine comes home from work with a pay raise. Good job, Karmine!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The next morning at 6am, Geordi is off to work. Hopefully he gets close to another promotion.<\/p>\n

At work, Geordi has some mechanical errors it looks like. I believe he would follow orders from his boss right now.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After Xochitl changes infant Vince’s diaper, she sets him down and autonomously starts to talk to him, for which he receives another milestone when he talks…or babbles…back.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Karmine has reached her A status as a student. Way to go, Karmine. Again, mom and daughter pass each other as one arrives home and the other leaves for work.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For the next hour, Karmine has to tend to the Needs of her little brother, as both parents are at work.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Geordi comes home with a promotion. No longer is he a Space Cadet in the Astronaut Career<\/strong>. Geordi is now an Astronaut. He still has a few more levels to go to reach the top in his career.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Part of his promotional gift, Geordi receives a Salyut Aeronaut Chair. It goes well with the Mission Control console he received awhile back.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I must say this money tree has done great wonders. I’ve made 120k simoleons from it so far. I think I’ll have each generation get one for their house in each World. This will help the next heir(ess) be able to get decent housing when it’s their turn to take over.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At work, Karmine is approached by a customer. I think Karmine is the type to be honest. Yes, the point is to make money. But sometimes being honest to a customer makes them come back and maybe even tell others.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Just in case infant Vince wakes up overnight, I had Geordi put him in his playset. While everyone was sleeping, Vince receives another milestone on his own.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It’s a new day and also Geordi’s birthday today. He will now be a full-grown adult. Infant Vince will become toddler Vince tomorrow in-game. Xochitl ages up to a full-grown adult next week in-game. And then the week after, Karmine will no longer be a teenager.<\/p>\n

As Karmine has school, I’ll throw a birthday party for Geordi afterwards. It will just be a small family one.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I have Xochitl bake a cake for Geordi’s birthday party later.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After Karmine gets home from school, it’s time to start the party for Geordi.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

One of the event requirements is to make a grand meal. I decide that Xochitl can do that. I find something that is safe for both Geordi and Karmine to eat since he is a vegetarian and she is lactose intolerant.<\/p>\n

Since another task is to have Sims dancing at the same time, I buy a kids stereo and place it in infant Vince’s room. It’s time for the others to boogie down while Xochitl cooks dinner. If only Vince was a toddler, he’d join in. But he gets to watch daddy and sister do some dancing. Karmine seems to enjoy dancing.<\/p>\n

Geordi’s birthday dinner wasn’t one of Xochitl’s finest, but he shows his appreciation. Karmine ends up showing her disgust at each bite. If you don’t like it, don’t eat it miss Karmine!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I am going to end this chapter here. I’ll finish off Geordi’s party next chapter and give him a tiny birthday makeover. Vince will also be aging up in the next chapter into toddlerhood and his bedroom will get a revamp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
