BOtU 4

Time for another episode of Lifestyles of the Genetically Challenged!

With their brood growing, Jazlyn and Salim decided a bigger apartment was needed. I haven't had much time to play the past couple of days, so the time I did have was spent remodeling/decorating their new digs a bit.

Sarai decides the best place to enjoy her breakfast is on her new bed. 

Akira follows the family to their new place; he seems to approve.


Sarai and Camille do a little bonding, and Sarai teaches her sister some tricks with the blocks. After all, what are big sisters for?

Sarai's Aspiration is Whiz Kid; Jazlyn tries to help her eldest achieve her goals by playing a few rounds of chess with her.

Afterwards, Sarai gets a jump start on her homework. She somehow concludes that the best logical place to do this is sitting on Camille's bed while Camille is napping. Perhaps she's trying to educate her sister by proximity?

Salim tries to get to know his daughter a bit. She seems a bit frightened by the man bun.

But not frightened enough to turn down a bedtime story from her daddy. I mean, he does the voices and everything!

The next day, Sarai comes home from school and immediately gets to work on her homework. The nanny is shocked; in all of her years of caring for other peoples' brats precious children, not once has a child done their homework so willingly. 

Oh look, Jazlyn's in labor again. She looks...less than thrilled.

It comes out of WHERE?

Men.

Are we done here yet?

Hey look, Salim stuck around this time! And is watching the action...through the wall. The window's a little to your left, dude.

Or you can go in the room, that's cool. Wait, what are they doing with that claw over the baby? This isn't an arcade game, doc!

Little Malia isn't too enamored with her mama at first, just like big sister Camille. Salim pretends he doesn't notice.

Little Camille is less than thrilled with her new sibling; perhaps she is lamenting that she is not the baby anymore. Just look at those tears!

Nothing a kiss from mama and a nap won't fix, though. 

Sarai settles in to work on a school project. If only she could stretch and mold her mom's face as easily as that clay.

After her nap, Salim and Camille enjoy a little play time.
Jazlyn would probably kill me if I drop her, even if it would probably improve those facial features.

Yeah Daddy, you've got jokes. Sure.

The next morning, Salim's ready for a little grown up play time; Jazlyn certainly isn't going to tell him no.

But maybe she should have, because...

Yup, she's pregnant. Again.

I could have sworn you said you were on birth control.

Well, we've got baby number four on the way, so clearly your face isn't as effective of a birth control as you thought.

That evening, Salim spends some time with Saria reading.
Psst. You could see the pictures better if you actually sat on the couch.

Theeeere you go.

Jazlyn, meanwhile, has to deal with Camille and her giant mess.

I swear, it just fell out of my hand.

Jazlyn then spends some time with baby Malia.
If I keep my eyes closed, I don't have to look at her.

Please don't eat me.

Jazlyn is feeling pretty hungry, so she heads down to the cupcake food stall outside of their apartment. 

Mmm, bacon.

Back upstairs, she informs Sarai that she's going to be a big sister yet again.

Geez Mom, even I know how to prevent that.

Side note: the nanny could really use a shower. 


The next morning, little Malia becomes a toddler! She also possesses the ability to walk through doors.


Salim reads a story to Malia, while Camille accidentally makes a mess again.


Mama's got this one under control, too.


Malia does what toddlers do best and barges in on her mama in the bathroom for a hug.

I don't think it's supposed to work like that.

The good news is that while I played dress up with Malia in CAS, the nanny took a shower.


Jazlyn and Salim decide to take the girls to the park to enjoy the lovely weather. Who am I kidding, the weather is always lovely because EA wants to nickel and dime us to death and we'll probably never get Seasons. *deep breath* Where was I?

Oh, now Sarai's making a mess. Get it together, girls. 

Once again, I fail to pay attention to things, and Camille ages up to a child during their outing.

She's cute; I think she's edging out her big sister in the looks department. For now, anyway.

I used a random trait/aspiration generator, and Camille rolled Social Butterfly for an aspiration, and Loves the Outdoors as her trait. I'm not a huge fan of that aspiration....it's a LOT of work getting friendships up enough to complete it. But Camille gets started right away.


She even picks the kid she wants to eventually become BFFs with, and singles her out for a little chat session while watching the clouds go by.


Uh oh, Jazlyn's gone into labor again.


Malia comes along for the hospital trip and looks absolutely delighted.


Oof, that hurts...

But I really need to troll this forum real quick.

That's cool, I'mma just be over here shaking my groove thang for a bit. Wait, who just walked in behind me?

Yup, Mama Regina in all her glory.

Are we done yet?

Here's a change of pace - the new baby is a boy! Welcome to this crazy, crazy world, Dylan.

Uh, are you sure you're my mother? Really, really sure? Crap.
