Winter settled into the Wonderland house.
I was getting promotions at work and getting to spend more time with really big fires!
Hetal was still a Podium Polisher, but she was really good at it.
Jin was the best live-in nanny you could imagine. She worked really hard to be sure that Branden had everything he needed while his mommies were away.
She just couldn’t get enough of him. Maybe part of it was that there was such a close family resemblance.
Just between you and me, I’m not sure that part was such a great thing. No offense to Jin or anything, but her face could turn you to stone.
Great big noses aside, Branden was just amazing. I never tired of watching him explore and learn.
And he had that special way with his toys. I think he gets it from Hetal’s side of the family.
Dinah and Cheshire were so adorable. I’m blessed every day by having my kitties in my life.
I’m a pretty good momma if I do say so myself! After a busy day of work, I always made time to spend with my little boy.
Jin made sure that Hetal and I got a bit of precious time to spend together, even if it was just a bit of conversation at the dinner table.
I got my first solo call to a really big fire! The kitchen at the Mome Rath Cafe caught fire.
Don’t worry, weird Chinese guy, I’m here to save you!
At the end of the day, I was victorious. Like the cowboys of old, I rode off on my WooWoo 10000 into the setting sun.
And I got a promotion!
All that woowooing can be hard on your ears, though.
Then the big surprise came! Hetal was pregnant!
She’s still having trouble with her responsibilities toward Branden. I hope she comes to her senses soon.
She sure is sexy when she’s expecting, though.
With a new baby on the way and me spending long hours at work, Jin really picked up the slack for us.
Hetal still worked hard to keep us all fed.
But with all those hormones raging, she was kind of off her game.
There days when she was so sick from the pregnancy that I almost had to carry her to the kitchen to make me breakfast.
When she couldn’t do it, I tried to help out.
Then at last the moment came!
The baby was on its way!
I have to say that I did a bit better at being the support parent than Hetal did when she was in my shoes. I stayed with her and hailed a cab for us to go to the hospital together.
No wonder Hetal’s pregnancy was rough! We walked out of the hospital with not one, but two bundles of joy. Two!
Introducing Christof in the blue and Caitlin in the green.
Now life is going to get VERY interesting.
———-
BOTH OF THEM HAVE ALLISON’S SKIN! ARRRGH!
I did not do anything to stimulate twins on purpose. They don’t even have a radio or a television. I figured tracking two toddlers at the same time would be eye-crossing. But it happened anyway, so I’ll take the points!
Christof is a non-witch who is Friendly and Athletic. Caitlin is a witch who is Good and Insane. I’m going to try to focus on getting Christof trained so that he can get Insane. There’s no way they’ll both get all their skills.
And yes, that does mean that both of the witches are Good. I swear I didn’t choose that.
Oh, wow. Three kids – that is going to be fun. I hope, no, I PRAY that they don't both have faces as "interesting" as their brother's…
Besides that, Good and Insane is an interesting combination for Caitlin (lovely name)!
Twins! That's pretty exciting! I hope Hetal is willing to help out now… though Jin is an amazingly helpful idiot. Everything is going pretty smoothly so far, anyway.
I love that the witches are all Good (and Insane)!
Ooh! Twins! Good luck with that š
Caitlin is one of my all time favourite names, so I'm glad you chose that one!
I do think it's hilarious that the witch children are both good. It looks like you'll be having a battle between good and evil before long in the Wonderland household. Also, I bet you are relieved that Jin forced her way into your house now. She's been such a help to you so far.
Yeah, I'm fascinated by how well the idiots have been doing on autonomy. Though right now they haven't been able afford such time-sinks as a computer. With the Samples, if someone is left on autonomy, they usually go play computer games.
Jin is an Angler, and I really intended to have Allison drop her off someplace to fish, but right now I think she's the only thing keeping the family from complete fail.
Also, Allison gets to be the least interesting character because she's the only one doing the big stuff that needs to be done.
Yeah, being the "Torch Holder" in an ISBI isn't very much fun at all!
*whines* argh, I'm at work and I keep having to stop reading and do *work*.
RL, you fail me. š
Winter is so pretty. I've read a lot of simmers saying it's their favorite season. So shiny…
The pic of Branden with his car..hmmm, is he doing witchy things? *is Supernatural deprived* I still think he'll grow into most of his features.
Random twins..your random theme is awesome the way it just comes together…randomly. š Hey, aren't we getting kittens? I swear there were some hearts and furniture jumping.
Hee!
I really dig Seasons. It adds a huge amount of character to the game. And winter is the prettiest, but I have a soft spot for fall because it's my favorite season in real life.
Yeah, it seems like all the supernatural toddler have some special play animations. Branden was making his toy disappear and then making it reappear. It's cuter in motion :).
Oh yeah, and "Aren't we getting kittens?" she asks.
BWAHAHAHA!
I did not know about the different animations, that's really cool. What do the other kids do?
Hey, don't get all 'catty' with me cause the game decided to spam you with kittens. Get it? Catty? Kittens? *Please stop me now* š š š
Woot, twins! I love multiples, makes things way more fun. Nice names, Christof makes me think of Frozen! I shall have to use that as a naming theme sometime soon.
