I told you so....

I TOLD YOU SO.
Yeah, I'm still here.... it's just that I'm addicted to the Sims all over again. Anyway, more about my sims later. A friend of mine sent me a text message regarding planning a summer outing among all of us. I gave her all the dates in the summer that I know I'm free (of course, all are subject to change, I still have other stuff on my calendar so nothing's final till it's all set. But I'm all for it! Let's just wait and see what we all agree on.

Back to my sims, Nathaniel and Celestyne were about to have their first baby. One of the new features of Sims 3 is the option to bring your wife to the hospital to give birth, (Sims 1 and 2 never had this option.) but delivering at home is still an existing option. Nathaniel brought Celestyne to the hospital, and after a few Sim hours, had a baby boy, I named him Chris Nigel.

AND

Two sim days later grew up to be a toddler

(He must be taking after his Dad, he doesn't look a lot like Celestyne at all!)

I wonder if they had a girl, then it might look a lot like Celestyne. Anyway, Chris seems to prefer playing with his Dad more than Mom but Dad is always tired coming from work and while Mom, who's already promoted a five-star chef and is now a business partner at the restaurant where she works, only goes to work during the weekends now, so mom fills in for him a lot.

After Chris Nigel turned into a toddler, the "Have A Baby" icon (pacifier) appeared again on both Celestyne and Nathaniel's wish panels! (Is this the effect of choosing "Surrounded by Friends & Family" Lifetime goal?) It seems like the wanted to have a new baby one after the other!

Now I have to work at getting Nathaniel a promotion at work so he can go ahead and write a romance novel for his bormer best friend, now distant friend Janice Shallow (?) I think and go up to Level 10 of his Journalism Career. I'll have Celestyne improve her gardening skills and make her use spare time at home for profit.
