1.3: Birthdays and Babies

Hello everyone! Welcome back to Simmer Down 4 What! It's Sunday so that means it's time for another update :) Let's kick this one off by catching up with our founder, Stick. He took some time to practice telling jokes...to the wall.



Meanwhile, Eliza got to work on her homework. Gotta keep those grades up, after all!


Holly kept busy throughout the pregnancy by fixing busted appliances. They're starting to build a little bit of a nest egg so upgrades to the lighting and appliances are in the near future for the Sticklys. 


Bills needed to be taken care of, as did some needs. Have I mentioned how much I love the multitasking in this game? Cause I love the multitasking in this game.


Mom got in some last minute cuddles with Chuckie before he aged up. That belly is a big one!


And there he is, everyone! Child aged Chuckie :) He is ADORABLE. And took after dad big time! First thing he did when he aged up was give mom a big squeeze. I love this interaction! Upon aging up, Chuckie rolled the self assured trait and the rambunctious scamp aspiration.


I got him working on his aspiration right away. I went ahead and splurged on some playground equipment for the back yard.


LOL! I can't remember what this screenshot was supposed to be for, but his face. His face! I love it. He must have had a bad day at school or something.


Early morning pee-pee walk in cute pjs and mismatched socks. I say this all the time, but I will never get over how much I love the mismatched socks. 


Eliza and Chuckie bonded over breakfast before school. Seems she got over the whole 'unwanted sibling' thing. God, the lighting still kills me. Ugh.


Oh look! Baby time! That kind of snuck up on me...lol.


And here we have another baby girl! Everyone say hello to Beebe Stickly!


And for the refresher, she is named after this little cutie, Beebe Bluff from Doug! She is a hard one to get a good picture of for some reason :( 


So, naturally, what does the happy couple do once they have their baby? Try for the next one, of course!


Of course they have success and baby #4 is officially on the way!


This is just an excuse to show off Chuckie being bawse at the monkey bars. One of my fave screenies I've ever taken, actually! I love the colors in this game. He's progressing with his aspiration nicely!


Eliza's also coming along well with hers. She spends most of her time at the drawing table creating cute little paintings. Every unique one she creates gets hung up on the wall.


With both Holly and Stick having the big happy family aspiration, they need to read to a child for two hours. Holly took some time to read with Chuckie while Stick read with Eliza.



Stick's adult birthday snuck up on me like an unwanted surprise. It kind of made me remember that we still have 7 babies to birth! Eek! Some multiples would be nice....anywho, time to celebrate his birthday! Also. They really should have reconsidered the placement for these confetti blasters. Bahahaha.


Holly still had a little time to kill on her goal of reading with a child for 2 hours, so she finished it off with Eliza.


Chuckie kept plucking away at his aspiration. Next up is practicing his typing!


I can't recall what this screenshot was for either. I guess it's just a nice little mother/daughter bonding moment :)


Chuckie did a little bonding with Beebe before her child birthday. I love that the children can interact with the babies a little bit. I kind of wish they could do a little more, but I'll take what I can get.


And here she is, child Beebe! So far we are 3/3 for dad's genetics - Holly's are slackin' off! She's a little cutie. The random sim generator rolled the genius trait and the whiz kid aspiration. She aged up with the glasses, I couldn't take them away from her <3


The first thing that she did after aging up with give her sister a hug. Cute! Eliza never got the 'unwanted sibling' mood when Beebe was born, thankfully.


It was Beebe who had the pleasure of enduring the last bit of reading that Stick had to accomplish. They love reading on that couch!


Holly's labor began, so she took her customary nap. I'm sure all around the world, there are women jealous of these sims who are able to nap away their pregnancies. I don't think it works quite so peacefully in real life, lol!


Stick was at work during this birth, but Eliza and Chuckie did a good job of taking care of themselves while mom was in labor. They sat down for some dinner together while Beebe played some chess to get her aspiration going.



Labor went by uneventfully and it was time for Holly to move into the nursery to welcome baby #4 into the family.


And we have ourselves another girl! Everyone give a warm welcome to Jazz Stickly! 


She is named after Jasmine "Jazz" Fenton, the older sister of Danny Fenton from the show Danny Phantom! 


As soon as Stick got home, Holly got down to business and got some more baby making underway. With the birth of Jazz. we still have 6 babies to go!


And toilet confetti means success! Baby #5 is officially incubating, which means we are close to the halfway point!





And that's where we will end this update for today! Tune in next time to see who baby #5 will be named after as we continue to push past the halfway mark! Until next time, happy simming!
