Felicity had an opportunity for more Celebrity points if she went to a particular bar and ordered a particular drink. On her way inside I remembered how much she adored that bouncer in Bridgeport, so I had her stop and ask this club’s bouncer, Kevin Cisneros, if he was single.
He was! And he was kinda into her.
Things went pretty well at first.
And then they went really well. Awww yeah!
He looks a little confused. Like, “Did I just Try for Baby with a complete stranger?” Yep, ya sure did, sport.
Felicity: “I could really go for some turkey right now.”
The next day I invited him over and popped the question. It seemed like the right thing to do, what with Felicity being In A Family Way.
I love this reaction! “YAYYYYY!”
(He has just changed into his work outfit because he has to rush off to work.)
And the next day, they were wed. Note that she has already changed into her maternity clothes, and started to show.
And just like that, they were a family! Welcome baby girl Khloe.
I picked the name from a list of 2010′s trending baby names. (Which I can’t find right now, sorry.)
Later that same day, Felicity hit her Lifetime Wish to become a five-star celebrity. More amazing still, I actually caught the moment in a screenshot!
Khloe takes after her father. Except he doesn’t cry as much.
One thing he DOES do is take out the trash spontaneously. Be still my beating heart!
It obviously caught Felicity’s attention, too, because she rushed outside to spontaneously “Announce Pregnancy.”
“So I figured, as long as we already have a bunch of kids’ toys lying around…”
I missed getting a screenshot of his reaction, but it was hilarious. He gave her a thumbs up!
Later that afternoon we threw him a birthday party. Time waits for no man. Look at his outraged expression!
I toyed with giving him a Ronald Reagan-style toupee. In the end, I settled for Sim Pattern Baldness. I left his outfit, though, because those color-coordinated track suits crack me up!
“I wish I was at the spa instead of standing in my living room having contractions!”
And welcome baby boy Mason.
Then it was time for Felicity to get old, too. She looks pretty bummed about it.
I decided to go all-out. I gave her a bun, a color coordinated pants suit, and too much cheap drugstore makeup.
Aren’t they an adorable pair?
Next it was Khloe’s turn to grow up. She’s like, “Tada!”
Then I aged up Mason. He takes after his mother.
Khloe loves the outdoors, so I sent her off to learn to fish.
I have to remember to rename that restaurant The Black Rock.
Let’s bake muffins! I get so jealous watching kids bake muffins in their little stoves. I always wanted one of those!
“Wanna buy a muffin? I only touched them a little bit, I promise!”
I’ll wrap this up with a wonderful little exchange. I discovered that if both Felicity and Kevin were relaxing in bed, they had the option to “Reminisce.”
“Remember what a mess this place was, before I moved in?”
“And then we got married!”
“And we had turkey for dinner!”
That’s our Felicity: completely obsessed with eating turkey.
He looks like a bellboy! Also, I want some turkey really quite a lot now.
I like it when one sim announces something (job, promotion, bun in the oven) and the other sim gives them the thumbs up. It always makes me giggle.
I was at WalMart today, and saw that they had Barnacle Bay there (that’s the name of that EP isnt it?) and had to resist the temptation to not buy it using the money I was using to buy my mom a mother’s day present. (got her candy, a stuffed monkey, and some fake hydrangeas)
I’ll have to ask my mom for a copy for my b-day in a few weeks.
Daww, Reminisce. I think that was around in Sims 2 though I’ve yet to see it much (at all?) in my Sims 3 games, as someone tends always to have gone up in a stove fire or moved in with the maid by the time both my reproductive sims have grown old. It makes me look forward to the Generations expansion though, as they are bringing the “Memories” function from Sims 2 back, which I always loved.
Something I wondered yesterday, as my 5-star famous sim received yet another free car (free stuff and the income earned from the selling of it being my general reason for having my sims pursue fame in the first place; for fulfilling lifetime wishes like the martial arts one I don’t have time to send them to normal jobs too), this one worth 100K, was at what threshold of money-in-the-bank do sims desire to quit their jobs? As soon as I sold the Margarette Vaguester for that 100k, every adult in the household received “Quit Job” in their wish tray. 100K can’t be the threshold as I tend not to have the richest sims, but I was wondering what it was–if there was indeed a finite number, or if it varied depending on a sim’s goals (a Living In the Lap of Luxury sim, for example, might still not want to quit his job even at 100K, preferring 500K as his stopping point)?
Heh. The “after-try-for-a-baby” strut is showing there in picture 5.
That’s a good question, Jenn! I have had everyone get it before at the 500k mark, too. I think there are probably several thresholds that trigger a “quit job” wish. (Just like in real life!)
Oh, no. I hadn’t heard about Generations until now. I am way behind on the expansions… I haven’t installed Late Night yet and I’ve had it for six months. Too many options!
Ahh, I was already hungry, and now this? What is a girl to do?
Love ‘Reminisce’! Trash bags and Turkey – such memories!
Is it sad that I am happy for her? I was worried there for a bit! her bouncer fetish finally paid off:) Also Khloe is so cute with her chubby face and pigtails.
Wii is evil. It only lets you play any given sim family for fifty days, so just when you get to really like them it is over…. sigh.
