Chapter 1.2

Welcome back!  Last week, Pop became a toddler and Fudge was born a girl.  Sorbets were resurrected and unleashed upon the world.

We start off by finding Plum outside.  His handiness skill is null, so he is tinkering the sprinklers to death.

Blackberry:  My name Pop and all I do is poo and cry for food. Wah wah wah!
Pop:

Blackberry:  Here you can have this now that I’m done mocking you.

Plum hits the carpool first, leaving Blackberry home again.

Pop maxes his pegs.

Then wanders over to the xylo (the peg box mysteriously disappeared) and completes that in seconds too.

Level 5!

And this is what Blackberry gets.  She just may become the first sim I have ever had get fired in recent memory.

Back to the sprinklers.

Not much happens around here.  Can you tell?

Pop was never taught to talk!  I can’t believe we forgot that.

Plum:  We’re not real, Pop.  We’re just characters in a game.
Pop:  Weally?
Plum:  Yes, son.  We’re just pixels set to amuse the humans out there.
Pop:  Outside?
Plum:  No, Pop.  Out there through that screen.  See that giant head watching us?  She’s a monster.  Never make her angry.
Pop:

Well, it’s time to see how Fudge turns out.

Omg.  Blackberry’s hair, Ash’s eye color, Ras’ lips, Plum’s skin.  What a mix!  The nose is a toss up for now. It might be either Ash’s or Ras’.

It’s Plum’s day off and Blackberry waddles to the carpool.  She just might save herself from getting fired.  Or, she could go into labor and ruin her career.

Plum knows who the heiress is.  He wants to potty train her, snuggle her, and see her grow up well.   He does have a spot open.  He wants another girl, a boy, and woohoo with Blackberry.

Well, she came home real quietly.  I had no clue she finished her night until I heard her having fun.

Plum was cleaning the house when Blackberry woke up to give birth.

It’s a boy!  No change here for Pineapple.  Blackberry got to choose one trait for P-Apple v2.  He is Charismatic and Insane.

At this point, I took some time off of playing to address an issue with the game just closing out without warning.  I now have two Sims3 folders.  One with mostly just store stuff and this one.  Where I go a bit crazy.

Might as well get going on the next one.

Plum teaches Fudge to talk while Blackberry eats cake and listens to kids music.

She then heads inside to work out.  After adding another stereo, there is more kids music to be heard.

The kids’ bathroom is done.

So is the master bedroom and bathroom.

Pineapple love.

Blackberry may have burnt dinner?  I don’t know, actually.

Plum his finally back in the garden after some time away to parent.

Blackberry is a really good mom.

Looks like the next one is on the way!

Blackberry is channeling her eco-friendliness.

Probably to escape the mess inside.  Pop is trapped in the potty and can’t be interacted with.  No amount of moving the potties helps.  I have to reset them each time they go.  Pop does get fed and Fudge does get changed and fed, it just takes a bit.

Pop!

Ras:  Why the heck did I never get one of these things?
Probably because they didn’t exist.

Fudge buys a cake and throws a birthday party for Pop, but then he had to go to work.

Nobody showed up to see the candles being blown out.  Only the Sorbet’s were invited, but we had several party crashers.

Pop Tart!

Everyone grabs some of Pop’s cake and ignored Pineapple’s turn at the cake.

In a Tart ISBI first, Pineapple gets Ras’ hair color!

What the heck is going on here?

Grape, you can’t woohoo in your sister’s bed.  Even she hasn’t had a chance to break that puppy in.

Grape:  Too late.
You want to be that way?  Fine.  Kiwi is now pollinated.
Grape:  NOOO!

No way.  You can’t pee yourself, you were potty trained!

Plum is home now.  He hits himself with the moodlet manager so he can deal with kids.

Blackberry:  Thanks for boring me to death, mom.

Pop heads into try out the new bathtub.  The tub does get rotated later on.

Everyone is out at the basketball court.  They are addicted.

Pop’s room.

Plum has to mop the floor and then repair the dishwasher.

Another bath user.

It was a long night.  Plum is now on to feeding the tots.

He then grabbed some dogs out of the fridge and served them up.  They spoiled at the same time and we can’t stop her from eating them.

Plum throws some waffles on the table and tries again to feed his family.

Pineapple can walk and potty now.

Family time is not always about doing the same things together.  Pop watches tv, Plum dances, and Pineapple plays with his IF.

Blackberry is maybe asleep or at work.  Fudge is all alone in her room.

Pop has fun in the garden.

Pop:  Hi, mom.  Bye, mom.

Pop leaves the sprinklers to Blackberry and heads to the pool.

With no IF doll, Pop calls up cousin Eggplant when he gets lonely.

These two are at it again.  Blackberry mocks Plum’s cleverness.

Pop:  Hear ye! Hear ye!  I decree that all arguments should cease right this minute!

Plum ignores his oldest child and talks shit about Pineapple to Blackberry.

He is encouraged to go read a skill book.

Blackberry plays in the sprinkler while Plum harvests and weeds the garden.

I don’t know why you went to bed.
Blackberry:  Because I’m tired?

She was in bed for under an hour when labor hit.

Plum:  I didn’t know she was even pregnant!  AHHH!

I quit.

Plum:  Me too!  I’m outta here!

Torch Holder: 1
Self Wetting:   2
Single Births: 3
Quad Births:  1

I am planning a 3 week long vacation for July.  So, my plan is to get a lot of playing done, chapters written, and then scheduled.  I’m hoping to get us through July with a set schedule, which I will be posting on facebook (link is up top, just click the gear) or on my main blog, which I will post a schedule up around July 1.

The Tart’s will be on Saturday’s at 8am, CST.
