When Dahlia went into labor, she had a wish to go to the hospital for the birth. I dutifully told her to go to the hospital. But I thought she would take a cab; I certainly didn’t mean for her to BIKE there.
And soon she came home with baby girl Kirby.
Zombie of the Week: Zombie Evil Male Fairy. Love it!
By the way, fairies can also occupy a tiny fairy house. They transform into a little blob of light, Tinkerbelle-style, and fly in there. Here, Dahlia is holding a house party.
I reaaalllly wish you could see inside the tiny fairy house. That would please me.
Dahlia and June received a free hot tub, just for being celebrities. I plunked it down in the yard, because why not.
I was about to have them “Try for Baby” to have a spare heir. But I guess I had been overlooking the game’s pop-up messages, because it was Dahlia’s birthday. She leaped out of the hot tub and did a happy dance.
“It’s my birthday!”
“Aw.”
When you friend another player, you can send each other gifts in-game. I like sending and receiving the Mystery Gift, which is a random store item. Someone sent us this couch.
I put it in the yard, too. Stray dogs sleep on it at night.
Little baby Kirby grew into a bald toddler. At this point it is apparent that she is not a fairy, else she would have some kind of visual effect.
Speaking of visual effects: who is that strange woman in our hot tub, and what is she doing that she looks so sinister?
For reasons unknown to me, whenever Dahlia finds Kirby inside the house, she carries her outside and deposits her in the fenced garden.
I don’t think it’s a good idea to have a toddler hanging out in a garden where the sprinklers run 24/7. But I guess it’s not up to me.
I finally gave up trying to control or correct this behavior, and added some toddler toys to keep Kirby entertained.
Their lot is truly enormous. Big enough that I was able to build a substantial forest in the back corner. Like all good forests, it comes complete with a mysterious stone circle with a single scorched tree in the center.
Which looks very mysterious and spooky in the dark.
The Alphabettis are doing pretty well financially at the moment. I decided to celebrate by buying them a trampoline and building them an above-ground swimming pool.
Which, naturally, I put in the yard. (Hmm… looks like the back yard could do with a few more weeds and dandelions.)
I’m sorry you missed out on the fairy baby.
I had no idea that pool was possible! It’s delightfully redneck!
Did you build the creepy dead tree in the stone circle?
I was waffling back and forth on sending gifts, I just installed Supernatural the other day, but this post decided me on the matter: gifts ahoy!
Also, I love that forest on the back of the lot, I’m terrible at landscaping my lots. Big empty yards, the lot of them.
Looks like Gwyneth Paltrow popped in to use the hot tub, but I’ve got no idea about the creepy expression…..maybe she has a serial killer role coming up?
Hilariously, scorched trees are available for sale in Build Mode. There are two – one big, one little. You could make a pretty funny forest just full of scorched trees, which is something I definitely considered!
Evil male fairy hahahaha
this reminds me of the time my sim got pregnant a day before her birthday. She still turned elder, but was perpetually pregnant, she never gave birth but was visibly pregnant, had grey hair, and did the waddle walk of pregnant sims. I felt really bad for her.
THAT is downright TERRIFYING.
I always carpet my yards with flowers and vegetable gardens, which sometimes leads to the ever-hilarious “I can’t check my mail because there are FLOWERS in the way!” situations.
Is there a chance that the garden gate somehow got set as the front door, so Dahlia keeps putting little garden baby Kirby ‘inside’?
I keep checking that door situation, and it is not set as the front door. However, I do wonder about that, since at one point it WAS the front door. I suspect there may be a glitch, and the Sims still think it’s the front door even though it isn’t.
