TRIPLETS!? - Babies 8, 9 and 10

This pregnancy was going pretty well so far, my bump was growing nicely and I found that I had more time to do things with the kids. I wasn't throwing up every five minutes, which was a bonus and I'd had a pregnant daughter who I could share my wisdom towards. I felt very happy about life right now.

I did find that the things were breaking still, but the kids were so helpful that I didn't realise they were broken until they left the house and I had to fix the odd thing. I also washed out Percy's cage, and topped up his food bowl as I felt we neglected him a bit.

Sookie was a very good girl and always did her homework straight away, usually with her sister.

I used this pregnancy to catch up on my cooking skill, ready to make the kids a nice dinner. The twins were going through a phase of vegetarianism and refused to eat the meat. I could be nice and give them some tofu version of the meal or I could be a mean mother and make them suck it up and eat it.

The girls however, wanted meat tonight which was perfect for me and then they both got together for some photos.

Caden didn't ever seem to sleep anymore. I knew he was a vampire, but still. He only ever had naps.

And me? I wrote a song on the guitar for Loretta's new baby, when it was born.

And it seemed I didn't have to wait long: Meet Loretta and Brayden's first child - Mary Toms. Loretta was so happy that she got my eyes and hair colour.

I went round to visit my first grandchild and we got on like a house on fire.

Then when I went home, I watched some kids TV, in the hope of having multi-gendered multiples.

Then I went to sleep and dreamt about having my 100th child. Early days, Jayda. You're only on your 8th!!

GETTING BIG!!!

I waddled downstairs to get myself a drink, but the baby/babies had other ideas.

Meet baby 8...
Hallie Moon

baby 9...

Scott Moon

and baby 10...

Annie Moon

To make room for the next set of babies, everyone aged up, except Caden who wanted to remain a teenager for a little bit longer, until his girlfriend aged up too.

First went Kaylum who cut his hair short and moved out straight away, without so much as a backward glance.

The twins went next, Hadley grew up beautiful and styled her hair with a full fringe, which I think suited her.

Then Sookie, who styled her hair the same as Hadley's. She was a bit put-off though that she didn't look as pretty as Hadley and tried to mask this with makeup, which looked slightly odd against her dark skin.

The triplets also aged up, so that I could get teaching them their skills.

Scott went first and was a nice mixture of Grim and myself. He had Grim's eyes, but my hair.

Hallie had Grim's jet black hair but my eye colour and was another mixture.

Annie on the other hand, looked exactly like myself as a toddler, except without the freckles!

Can you spot any difference? - This is me as a toddler!

It... CAN'T be...

As I stood in the nursery, I wondered whether the next 3 children in a row had to be Grim's or whether I could skip him a bit and come back. That just sounded horrible. He was a person, yes we were using each other but he was a person. I sighed and walked out the room slowly, trying not to wake Hadley who hadn't been sleeping well recently. I suppose if the next 3 were Grim's then, not meaning to sound horrible here, but it would be out of the way wouldn't it? And the kids could be close in age and get along more.

 

That was settled then. Grim would be the father again to the next three children. Zane and Ettie had decided to grow up and make more room in the house for more children. I baked them both cakes as a nice change and the whole family came round to celebrate. Zane grew up nicely, and left to find his own place, but Ettie stayed on.

"Make a wish Tee."

Caden was most excited for his sister.

Zane grew up amazingly and looked as handsome as ever, you can download him here

Loretta grew up beautifully too and now has her hair curly. You can download her here

(for some reason, the sims3 site isn't letting me upload my girl sims, so i'm having to upload them to mediafire for now!)

"Mama. I want to marry Brayden before I leave and I would like a big wedding, with the perfect dress and I would like you to give me away mama."

I couldn't help but cry a little. My first daughter, growing up, getting married and moving out. And sure enough, Brayden proposed to her, just 10 minutes later. Those two were perfect together.

After putting Sookie and Hadley to bed, they just stood there and gazed into each others eyes.

Sookie grew up to be a toddler and beautiful too. It's just a shame you can't really see her features. Her daddy is really pleased that, as he puts it, 'on my first try I got a reaper'. Charming.

Hadley grew up beautiful as well. Basically an exact carbon copy of Sookie, but without the reapers skin colour. She had my hair and both tots were vampires, it seemed.

Brayden and Loretta went to graduate at City Hall and collect their diplomas. I was majorly proud of the both of them, and came along to watch them collect their diplomas... even if I was a little late.

I was so proud of my little girl. She'd grown up wonderfully, made straight A's in her classes and was now heading out into the world to be married.

Before she left though, she taught Sookie to walk, while Brayden taught Hadley. The both of them wanted to have their wedding here, so they stayed until they were married.

I decided to change my hair up a bit, and went for a full fringe, something I haven't had in a while.

And then I popped round to Zane's to see him in his new place. That was when the bachelor and bachelorette parties started though, and we all had to head to the venue's.  

Brayden had let the girls have full run of the house, while they hired out a club for the night. Aislinn and Zane sprayed each other with nectar.

And someone else showed up, but nobody was sure who he was. He seemed to know Brayden though and was quite friendly with him and then the others as well.

The party at the house was in full swing and even Caden and Kaylum joined in with the dancing.

And there was someone in the corner, dancing, with bright blue hair, that I recognised. I stood there for a while, staring at her before I screamed. She stopped mid-dance and her eyes widened to look at me.

"CALISTA FREAKIN' SMITH"

(Please check out Calista's challenge here)

I practically jumped on her.

"You're in my house. You're like... a legend. I mean, woah, just... and how many babies and still skinny."

I decided that I'd freaked her out enough, so headed outside to greet everyone else. Benni, Aislinn's wife was there, enjoying the party.

And Loretta seemed to be enjoying it too.

Back inside, Calista came up to me and started chatting away. I apologised for me jumping on her earlier, but explained that I was a big fan of her challenge and she was one of the one's who had inspired me to start my own.

"Congratulations! Which baby are you on now?"

"I've just had 6 and 7. They're in the cots in the nursery. Sookie and Hadley."

"That's sweet. And you're Jayda, right?"

"Yep. Super awesome to meet you, finally."

She was really nice, and told me that she may have a father for me too. While we had been talking, some of the other girls had hired some party dancers for Loretta.

And back at the boys party... some party dancers had been hired there too!

Brayden was dancing along...

As was Aislinn. They seemed to be enjoying themselves immensely.

Some a bit too much... even Zac Whipsnake (father of baby 4) was there, taking a photo, of a guy in pants... but at least he turned his head.

Zane was creeping around, enjoying the party girls it seemed... until he ran up and kissed Peaches. Turned out that Zane and Peaches were together now.

And then the nectar started spraying everywhere.

Meanwhile, Calista and I were getting on like a house on fire. I pulled a silly face at her...

and she pulled a sillier one back.

She told me all about her children and then I told her all about mine.

She then proceeded to take a photo of Loretta before I did the toast.

"To my beautiful baby girl, Loretta Moon. I can't believe how quickly you've grown, these years have flown by. And even though you're moving out to start your own life, I want you to know that there is always room for you here, in my house and my heart. I love you darling and I wish you all the happiness in the world with Brayden. So please, raise your glasses to my daughter. Loretta."

A chorus of 'Loretta' rang round the kitchen and then I got down to the business of spraying her with nectar, and the party continued.

Calista and I danced for a bit, and then I went off to find Loretta.

I found her in the nursery, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Ettie, you alright darling?"

"Mama, I don't know what to do..."

"About..."

"Mama... I'm pregnant."

"Congratulations. I thought you wanted to be married first though?"

"I did mama. That's the problem. My child's gonna be a bastard, cause I can't fit in my wedding dress and Brayden won't wanna marry a fat ugly slapper."

"You don't shut up - I'll slap ya."

She stared at me through wet lashes and I placed my hand on her shoulder.

"Ettie. Loretta. You're gonna be a brilliant mother. And Brayden loves you. He wouldn't leave you, no matter what you looked like. You are the prettiest girl I know darling and I'm not just saying that cause I gotta. You're getting married tomorrow, big wedding or not, because you love Brayden and he loves you. Tell him the truth baby girl."

I couldn't wait to meet my first grandchild.

LORETTA'S POV:

I went into the hallway and immediately found Brayden in there.

"Hey hun. How was your party? Or were there strippers and I don't need to know?"

He winked and I burst into tears.

"Hey? Ettie. What's up darling?"

"I'm pregnant. I'm so sorry. I didn't mean it to happen and you won't wanna marry me and I'm so sorry."

To my surprise, he grabbed me and kissed me passionately before pulling away.

"You are a silly goose sometimes. I love you. No matter how chubby you're gonna get. If you became disfigured and weren't able to do anything, I'd carry you everywhere and help you to do it all again. I'd kiss you every single day, not caring how gross you looked. Because I love you Ettie Moon. And the wedding doesn't matter. I want to marry you. And we'll do it now."

And with that, he placed the ring on my finger and we were married.

Jayda's POV:

Seems like everything breaks in this house, I've already fixed the sink, the hot tub, the stereo, the cooker and now the trash compacter too. 

It was the morning and last night, Ettie and Brayden had gotten married. I let them have my bed as I had wanted to get up early and I wanted them to be together. I decided that today, I would go to the science center and get the cure for vampirism. I liked being a vampire, but for now, I wanted to go back to being a human again. I enjoyed the sun way too much.

I also rang the adoption center and asked to put Mocha up for adoption. I loved that horse, and so did the kids, but we weren't spending enough time with her and she deserved a loving home.

I also completed my lifetime wish of raising 5 children from babies to teenagers, as Kaylum and Caden wanted to age up together, so I let them.

Kaylum grew up, looking quite moody and had long red hair. He had the athletic trait and liked to run everywhere in the mornings.

Caden on the other hand, was loving even if he did get the trait 'dislikes children'. He loved his siblings though and that was all that mattered for now. He was quite handsome, and he certainly knew it as every morning, he would fix his hair and eyebrows to look perfect. The girls were all over him too.

Kaylum was incredibly helpful around the house and mopped up all the puddles that had appeared from breakages.

The girls both aged up after learning all their skills. Sookie became a light sleeper and wore the exact same things as Hadley did. The girls were inseperable, which was nice. I just hoped they remained that way as they grew up.

Hadley plaited her hair the same way as Sookie and wore the same clothes as her too. They liked to look identical and fool the teachers at school, even though they had different skin tones, the girls were often confused.

And that night, they slept soundly.

Just as I was about to head out, I got a phone call from Loretta telling me how her pregnancy was going and how married life was treating her.

And then I went to the science facility, got the vampire-be-gone potion or whatever slush it was.

I was a little nervous about drinking it, but also very eager. I wanted to be able to walk in the sun again.

And I turned back into a regular human being. Smiling, I realised my next stop would be to get pregnant. So I ran to Grim's house, where we made baby 8.
