Mom called to let me know my latest sibling had been born finally. I was excited to meet her. Yes, another girl. How Ronnie ever made it past all the girl chromosomes I don't know. This family loves having the girls!
"Well hello Miss Rowen. Looks like you made it here just in time." I do hope Mom will live long enough to see her latest daughter grow to adulthood.
Dad stopped by to visit. It was so nice to see him. He did seem tired though. I didn't realize this would be the last time I would get to spend time with my dad. He passed away shortly thereafter of old age. He is buried in the family cemetery.
Little sister Rowen is already an infant.
I'm blaming it on Rowen. That day when I held her, I realized how much my own children have grown. I really wanted a child, and I wanted to have a child with Charles. When I told him we were expecting a baby he was excited. (I don't think I captured his excitement in this picture!) Yes, baby four on board.
Either Violet is having some sort of genius moment, or she is tired of hearing the chatter between Tyrian and myself.
Charles is a Maker, and his interests lie in creating things and making things of better quality. I love that! He bought himself a woodworking table and keeps busy making and creating things. He doesn't have a job, other than being a great husband and father, but we don't need the money. I make more than enough between my garden and my job. I would rather he stay home and be the great dad he is.
We work together with helping the kids with their homework and making sure things are running smoothly. He is very good at that, plus he keeps things sparkly clean. Being a slob, I don't quite understand that part, but he does and it makes him happy. So, I'm good with it.
Being married to Charles has shown me what a truly good relationship is like. None of my past relationships could ever compare to what I have with him.
Mom visited to see how things are and how the pregnancy is coming along. I noticed we are wearing the same dress, though different colors. Please do not tell me I am becoming my mother. As much as I love her, I would not be happy to hear that!
Our home went from looking like this....
....to looking like this. It's slightly bigger and there is a bit more room. It's still smallish but I don't really want to move. I think it's going to work out fine.
I can't say enough about what a great dad Charles is to our children. They love him so much.
My, how things have changed. I went from this...
...to this! It won't be long now.
The kids love to sit on Charles and my bed and talk. I think it's sweet.
Violet is squeezing in some last-minute motor skills before her birthday, which is coming up.
It's baby time!
Meet Rusty Berri. He fell asleep immediately. I guess being born was a tiring experience for him.
Roger is a proud dad and feeding his son Rusty.
Enjoying another of our weekly get together with the family.
Myra visited and spent a little time with Baborka and Tyrian. I really like how she is so low key about maintaining a good relationship with them. She has been a good friend to them and to me.
The most shocking to me was when Darryl stopped by to visit with his daughter Violet. I can't remember the last time he came to see her. Not that she has suffered any for it though. Charles has more than enough made up from Darryl's absence in her life.
We got the bad news that Shaina has died. Shaina was the last remaining Sibling to Dominique and Rosalie and the daughter of Cedrina and Abraham. Her husband, Karim, and children Angelina, Nathalie and Niko are still living in San Myshuno. She died at a very old age and is buried in the family cemetery at the Windenburg home.
Rusty aged up to be a calm infant wearing cool shades. I may have made a mistake in CAS but I'm not sure. I went into CAS to fix him up a bit, get rid of the shades for one, and it didn't show him as being an alien. He was purple though. I decided to go ahead and make him an alien so I could have the option for a disguise. Then I wasn't sure because I'm not sure an alien and a human can have an actual alien. They could have a half alien only? Anyway, I can't change him back to a human with purple skin. Soooo....he is an alien. Maybe it doesn't make any difference.
No matter. He's our little Rusty whether a full-blown alien now or a half human alien. At least now he can disguise his purple skin.
Let's move on. It's time for Violet to age up to a teenager. I'm excited about this.
Violet aged up to teenager. Pre makeover.
Violet after her makeover. This was the closest to purple hair the game gives so we'll go for it! And Charles steals the first piece of birthday cake!
Violet Berri. Generation 5. Teenager. Violet is a dance machine and a genius. Her aspiration is to be a Renaissance sim.
Yay! A teenager is in the Berri house. Time for her to get a job at the local hamburger restaurant.
