Sometimes I never know how to start off these stories so heres a cute recap photo and a recap story from last chapter. Titus fell in love with and then married Tierra (a cute sim he met in the park as a teen) as seen in the cute, recap photo above. Romance speeds by in the sims. Sadly both Mae and Jamari passed away. Mae due to old age and surprise surprise the cowplant finally managed to eat Jamari properly. The chapter ended with a negative pregnancy for Tierra and Titus which surprisingly is actually my first! We will get to baby making later though, first Tierra has found herself a new job.
Tierra gets a job in the Doctor career because:
1. She looks super cute in scrubs
2. I haven’t played much of the doctor career yet so I thought it would be fun.
Titus doesn’t have a career as he is focusing on his garden at the moment so it should work out pretty well. Titus can be a stay at home daddy when the babies come whilst I leave the lot to help Tierra at the hospital.
The staff already working in the hospital are all eager to meet the newbie.
“Ooh finally some fresh, hot new meat. How you doin’ sweetcheeks?”
“I’m doing great, I recently got married to wonderful man who doesn’t treat me like a piece of ‘meat’. Thanks for asking.”
“Ouch, feisty. I like it!”
“I have work to do. Goodbye.”
“Why hello. Fancy meeting you in my office.”
“You just split your coffee on the floor and told my boss to make me clean it up.”
“Complete accident my dear… oh my what a lovely view…”
“Did you mean to whisper that to yourself? because I can hear everything you are saying.”
Meanwhile back at home in the garden Titus’ plants are really coming on. I don’t think it will be long before he completes the aspiration.
When Tierra gets back from her first day at work she gets a lovely surprise in the bathroom. Tierra is so excited she does all her celebrating before the confetti even hits the floor.
“Ah I am so excited!!”
“…and now I am over it.”
Titus’ reaction is also not what I was expecting.
“Honey this is great news, we wanted to have a baby remember?”
“I have been raised by a family that hates children. This is the only way I know how to react to the news of a baby.”
Thankfully Titus gets over his weird against having a baby behaviour and the couple start acting all cute around each other again.
Generation 4 is on it’s way!
But just because Tierra is pregnant with generation four doesn’t mean she is going to be missing work. This is a sims legacy after all.
Thankfully the creepy doctor got old and retired so we have a nice, new doctor to chat to at work.
In other news, regarding the spares Regina and Lucy have now aged into adults. They both spend the majority of their time working hard on their aspirations.
Occasionally they get some downtime though. Regina invites over friends from work but she can never get a moment of peace with them from her sister.
Lucy: “The evil space monkey Narblarg slid through the legs of the alien emperor Tony Stark before shooting him in the unmentionables 10 times!”
Friend in cream shirt: “Is she talking to us? This isn’t really appropriate dinner conversation.”
Lucy: “No… duh! I am talking to the chairs. They are getting bored of your dinner conversation.”
Regina: *sigh*
I told you it wouldn’t be long! Titus completes the aspiration Freelance Botanist and picks up the collector aspiration to replace it.
Tierras pregnancy speeds by and it isn’t long before she is in labour and heading off to the hospital.
Doctor: “Hey Tierra! In for work? Hehe. Where’s your husband anyway?”
Tierra: “Hey Ginger. He is currently outside having a melt-down which is completely rational because you know it’s him that has to go into that deathtrap machine to have a life removed from him. Tee. Fricking. Hee.”
Doctor: Now I want you to take some deep breaths in and out. This will all be over soon.”
Titus: “Breathing in… and phew.. breath out. Thanks Doctor that really helped my nerves.”
“I was talking to your wife.”
Tierra: “Oh this is not good. Emma is going to be so mad with me.”
What made you think that?
Baby number 1? Who shall now be known as Brian.
Or was it babies number 2 and 3 that you thought would rile me up.
Meet Benjamin and Brandi with an I. Thank the lord one of the triplets is a girl.
Yup just to confirm it’s triplets.
Again.
..Ahem… excuse me whilst I go throw my computer at the nearest wall
I’m just kiddinggg ….I think.
I have plenty of experience with multiple births thanks to this legacy and I have picked up some tricks on the way. I just unplug my headphones and use the power of speed 3 because boy do these babies scream. Not even Tierras silly faces can make them stop.
A little bit of teamwork does wonders when looking after baby triplets. Having a couple of spares in the house is really handy at times like these.
Plus we have plenty of friendly ghosts on hand to help out. Here we have the triplets great grandmother India keeping the babies amused.
When Lucy isn’t helping out with the triplets she is at the computer completing the Computer Whiz aspiration.
Lucy is rewarded with a visit from the girl she had her first kiss with at Tierra and Titus’ wedding. So cute!
Romance is in the air for everyone in the Doodle household.
“Titus sweetie… since the triplets baby phase has went pretty smoothly so far how about we extend the family?”
“I am actually okay with this…for now. I can’t promise I won’t freak out when you come to tell me you are actually pregnant though.”
I like to try and follow what my sims want and Tierra rolled the whim to try for a baby with Titus. So here I am actually pressing the try for baby option with triplets in the next room. What am I doing?
It’s soon time for the triplets to grow up so here are the terribly, awkward photos of them popping out of the crib (they were all facing the wrong way and in a tiny room) and then some proper photos of the makeovers I gave them.
Meet Brandi, she is adorable and I love her already. Brandi is a bookworm with the rambunctious scamp aspiration.
Benjamin is the kid in the red hat and is a glutton like his mother and father because at least one the triplets was bound to get that trait. He rolls the creative aspiration.
The one holding the camera is Brian, the social butterfly of the trio who is cheerful.
Overall the kids are not too shabby.
The kids aged up at the weekend so the family head out to the park to spend some time together before the work/school, sleep, eat, work/school, maybe a little homework, sleep cycle begins. Already the family is too large to fit on one picnic bench.
The kids all head off in different directions and get cracking on their aspirations. Brandi gets the hang of the monkey bars pretty quickly.
Benjamin plays with some clay that he must have shoved in his inventory when I wasn’t looking and Brian harrasses an elderly woman that makes bold fashion choices instead of the cool teenagers that hang out at the park at night.
It was getting pretty late so the squad headed back to the house to hang out with some ghosts. Jamari is always such a helpful ghost taking out the rubbish because the maid never visits.
He also likes to help out his son, Titus, with the garden. I would just like to point out I have no idea why he is angry whilst he does these things. I mean he was whistling happily and chatting to Titus whilst he helped water the plants so I don’t know why he is red. Maybe a ghost fight with his evil ghost wife?
The doodle house gets a new room and it’s popular with the family. This is the new focusing room. Taube over at boolprop gave me the idea for mood rooms in The Gregory Legacy (definitely worth a read btw) and they work great!
Everyone meets in the focusing room. Tierra works on her logic skill, the kids do all their homework on the focusing couch and Titus is a lovely father who comes up to help them all out.
Another sim that loves the focusing room is Lucy who uses it to work on her programming skill. Things get a little tense when the kids try to do their homework in the room at the same time as poor Ben found out.
“You darn kids are always so annoying following me around this house. Can’t I program in peace?!”
“Aunty Lucy I’m not following you… I was told to do my homework in here so I would finish faster.”
“Ha! That’s what they all say. I have been following you, following me so I know you are following me! Who are you working for? The CIA? FBI? ALIENS?!”
“Ugh now I don’t even want to do my homework because I’m so MAD!”
I think it may be time for the aunts to move into a home of their own.
First of all Regina completes the bodybuilder aspiration and gets the fitness skill to level 10.
Her body is now at it’s maximum fitness level and she is kind of scaring me. I definitely wouldn’t want to pick a fight with her.
Lucy had already completed the computer whiz aspiration and after a speedrun of programming until she was very uncomfortable she has now also maxed the programming skill.
Lucy: “The faster I get out of this house the better. Those nasty kids always watching what I do on the computer. Trying to find out my secrets. They have eyes everywhere. Are you working for them Panda?!”
Panda: “I’m not working for anyone Lucy, I just want to be your friend.”
So my plan was to actually let the twins Regina and Lucy get married to their partners that they had already met and were in love with and then move them into a lovely house together. Unfortunately the game had a different plan and deleted both Regina and Lucy’s partners. I wasn’t really in the mood to find new ones so they skipped the first part of my plan and just moved into a lovely house. Sorry guys but at least you have each other. Maybe this is why the game gives me multiple births.
Is that a chocolate cake mix I see? It must be a birthday!
It’s also a really late birthday so if you could stop flirting and speed up the cake making that would be great.
Like mother, like son.
I put the cake on the table and in less than a second he had a slice. You’d think I would learn but I don’t.
Ah well, time to bake a new one Tierra.
Or not… serves you right you greedy glutton.
Titus: *Gasp* “You forgot my birthday!”
*bangs head on desk*
Tierra: “Honey I have some really special, good news on your birthday… we’re pregnant!”
Titus: “Aww… but I thought you said it was good news. Three of them is bad enough as it is.”
Ben: “We are right here y’know.”
Titus is a great father to the triplets so I have no idea why he reacts so badly to the news of a baby. I’m hoping he will warm up to the idea but who knows! You can find out in the next chapter because we are now at the end of chapter 17.
Thanks for reading! 😀
