Sims 3 Legacy Challenge week 28

After a bit of a B-B-Q Xeronema decided to invite Darren over to meet the family

This was a closely watched introduction, Specially with her sister wanting to become best friends as soon as she said hi. (Who greets people in their knickers??)

But Xeronmena should have rest assured, Ximenia was trying a new dating technique.

Briefly.

Things had to change for Ximenia if she was to find happiness though. She was ageing quickly, and her baby becoming a child.

Oh my.....

Darren was becoming quite a regular visitor to the Owens home, even slept soundly dreaming of Xeronema while she dreamed of being Mr tom the cheese selling mouse.

Work was becoming mad....

But re styling nostril hairs was a step too far.

It continued to make her feel uneasy for the rest of the day.

But she put on a brave smiling face for the clients at work.

Running to the toilet in between styles.

It had been a rough couple of days, aching back and feeling tired, having a successful career was hard work.

But before long career was discounted, and the true reasons for Xeronemas ailments become clear.

Project belly rub was in full swing.

rub

rub rub rub

Darren had to be told (how he hadn't noticed was the big question) the happy news that they were to have a daughter (Xeronema had decided)

Unfortunately Darren was not too pleased, he didn't really like children.

He made up for upsetting her with a silly face and on request joined project belly rub

rub rub

RUB

RUUUUUUUUUUB woops

(wow Xeronema, you think????)

Daughter Wheki Owens welcomed into the household.

Xeronema dreamed of getting married that night (in the newly decorated master bedroom, no one had mentioned she had taken it upon herself to move into this room) She didn't really mind who she married, but as she loved Darren, it might as well be him.

When Liang was next visiting from china, Ximenia at last decided to pop 'the' question she had been holding on to for so so long.

(this must have sparked her oldest daughter to at last making a move on that guy she had been dreaming of kissing since high school)

The next day, ximenia put on her glad rags and ran out to great Liang....

...and with a tear in her eye suggested they marry straight away, hoping he would leave china and his elderly mum behind for her and their daughter.

Wisteria was alittle unsure if her mum had the ability to be married (she had no idea how long this guy had been in her mums dreams) and Willow was alittle confused, was this her dad?? Ximenia instantly, for the first time, wanted a baby. But her next birthday was in two days, could she manage to get pregnant before then??

Next was Xeronemas turn.




((Just a little note. Unless they actually want a baby, or there is a good reason not to have a baby when my sims woohoo i have recently been using a mod called 'risky woohoo' that gives a 10% chance of accidents. As Xeronema had a very healthy appetite for Darren they did indeed fall pregnant. This was not forced by my hand.))

Sims 3 Legacy Challenge week 27

The week started with Willows first birthday

Other then her hair, she looks like her father.

It also began with a death, as Bracycone joined the family graveyard.

Xeronema has began taking clients outside the salon now, she is in quite high demand.

And with each step up the career ladder she runs to share the news with tattooist Darren.

Ximenia gave up work to spend time with Willow, she wasn't cut out for work anyway.

The girls celebrated Xeronemas promotion with a pizza night.

Despite doing so well though, her mean spirited streak occasionally threw in an insult to her clients.

And their families...

With family members all over town Xeronemas job meant she got to meet many. Scott Andrew-Mccombs who was discovered to be some great cousin or some such, travelling down from one of original Maria's twin girls, wanted a new look.

He looked just like great grampa Torgo.

Everybody was so pleased with Xeronemas work, which resulted in lots of celebrational congratulations from Darren, which had worked it's way up to kisses.

While in the park searching for a future ex Ximenia noticed a family member, she had the distinctive original Hair just like her Grant grandmother. The town really was filling with Owens descendants, she would have to start dating family at this rate. There was a brief wonder who she was, before checking out the talent.

Xeronema had to take a trip to the city hall to pick up an award for the styling, another promotion meant more celebrating.

The week ended with birthdays too.

Wisteria was not at all surprised her mum had forgotten her birthday.

At least she was not alone though, Auntie Xanthorhiza was with her. Xanthorhiza seemed confused by it all, specially when she had a birthday straight after.

And why was Ximenia too busy to remember Wisterias birthday, she had a found a new ex of course.
