Chapter 19: Ordinary Day

Alba scrambles to finish her homework the next morning. She neglected it in order to go to the park, but we'll forgive her this one time. She only just aged up, after all. She gets 50% done before she has to run out to catch the bus, so she didn't do too bad.

CeeCee's pregnancy isn't going so well this time around. She can feel the baby kicking around all the time

And she keeps having to make trips to the bathroom :(

(wow they use a lot TP LOL!)

While CeeCee alternates between practising and throwing up, Sri keeps on working on his mischief skill. Poor guy seems to be getting in over his head, though!

(watch out, Sri. I don't think your lvl 2 fitness will protect you this time!
Do you guys recognize him? He's Cassandra's husband, James Red. Anyway, funny thing is that he and Sri actually hang out autonomously all the time now haha)

Man, pulling pranks must be hard work!

Oh, I also bought the household a new desk and computer. Alba's next milestone requires her to be on the computer a lot (typing and video games, lucky brat) so I figured I may as well cave in now – I held out long enough as it is, hehee. As you'll notice, I didn't put the computer in her room. Wouldn't want her spending sleepless nights playing video games and going to school exhausted now would we? Hehe

Here's Alba testing the computer out for the first time.

She's a natural!

She still has to make time for homework though. She's gone to school energized and reached lvl 4 of the motor skill. Only one more skill to go (social) and she'll be getting a B. You go girl ^^

That evening the household got two unexpected visitors:

First, the Lovely Elizabeth

(who got a little creepy when she tried to use the treadmill, but hey, I still love her!)

2. And Cedric! He's never stopped by on his own before, so it was a really sweet surprise. He and CeeCee got to do some much needed catching up.

“We should get our kids together sometime.”

Aww, Cedric! You should have rolled the Family Oriented trait hehe :)
(yeah, this totally never happened, oops!!!)

That night after everyone had gone home, CeeCee went into labour. Really painful labor. She was all alone too :(

(sorry for the darkness. I have the lights on auto, but I guess the bulbs need replacing or something)

Say hello to Levi Rose, the latest and last addition to the Gen 2 household!

Alba went over immediately to say hello to her new brother. She didn't get a sad or angry moodlet like so many of the other Sims children I've played so far get. She seems genuienly happy to be an older sister! I hope these two will get along in the future ^^

Another person who seems to be happy to introduce the new family member is Sri! Look how adorable he is freaking out over his “pre-parental status” (although Levi was already born) and how he tiptoes around the house hahaha.

Despite his Hidden Mean trait and his criminal career, Sri is really growing on me!
