Andrew Summerdream
Grow Up |
The breeding pair, Snookie and Mr. Huggles. Mr. Huggles is an elder cat, and Snookie aged up right at the end of the visit last play. They have contributed 11 cats towards Titania's LTW. They will be able to stay on this lot through the end of their lives. There is only 9 kittens left to go for Titania's LTW, plenty of time for Titania to bring in another breeding pair later.
Last round: Snookie's last litter of kittens grew up and were immediately sent off to Animal Control. By visit end, Snookie aged up, so both she and Mr. Huggles were senior cats. Titania and Oberon were dating machines, fulfilling wishes through dating or talking about hobbies and playing. Incidentally Titania was fired from her job as a Professional Party guest and begged for her job back. She managed to go back to work in that chosen career, but started at the bottom as a golf caddy. She is checking the paper every day to see if she can get a better position. She also aged up to a very hip looking elder. Oberon didn't make any head way on his LTW of maxing out all skills, so we shall see in this round. He did win a very nice bonus of 40K at work which really helped the Summerdream personal bank. The Big News was with Aelita. As a teen she had a youthful tryst with Fay Capp, but then realized after aging up that she was not in love with Fay after all when a man hit on her at H&M Clothing. That was when her parental juices started flowing and she realized she wanted a child without waiting for the whole get married/get pregnant/give birth process, so she adopted Andrew. What a cutie! It was the very day that Andrew came home that Aelita was invited out by a gentleman named Keith Cormier. Keith was a childhood friend of Aelita's who grew up to be a very handsome man. They quickly became very close friends all over again. Things were looking up!
LET'S PLAY!
Aelita spent most of the day Monday working with Andrew teaching him his toddler skills, which fulfilled nice wishes for him. However, Aelita was not able to fulfill wishes for herself until she put Andrew to bed, then invited Keith over. Yup, this is him. Lots of talk about hobbies. My oh my but these two got along really well.
He came over again on Tuesday, giving the Summerdream hot tub a good inspection.
It was that night that Aelita and Keith fell in love. There were beginning whispers about a wedding in their future! But alas, no engagement took place.
While his daughter was out back with her boyfriend, Oberan kept a watchful half eye out the back door while he studied up on cleaning. Oh looky that! 7 skills maxed out, Oberon became perm plat. His wishes will no longer be fulfilled, unless he rolls woohoo.
In the mean time Andrew woke from his afternoon nap and found Snookie to be a great snuggle-kitty! Snookie was none too pleased!
Later that day saw a visit from Grim....yes he came for Mr. Huggles. And...WHAT????
He took Snookie too! Snookie had only be a senior cat for a couple of days and frankly showed a lot of time left in her life meter. At any rate, no one seemed to notice the passing of the cats. No wailing or mourning. Life went on. But at least the the pair left beautiful cat children all over the neighborhood.
Oberon and Titania headed right out to buy two more breeders. Planetary Pets seems like a good a place as any!
Meet Ada on the left, and Dimitri on the right. They will make beautiful fluffy babies together. :)
Whenever she had a chance, Aelita would sit down and play a game on the computer. During this session, Andrew's birthday notice popped. Aelita called over her brother Puck and her sister Bottom and her husband Alon, and her nephew Barron for a party. And of course her beau, Keith. A couple of townies wondered in for the party as well.
Grandpa Oberon and Granny Titania were snoozing and missed the festivities.
Yay! Go you, Andrew! His happiness was short lived. He didn't even have a chance to eat a piece of his birthday cake because he wet his pants...took a shower and went straight to bed. ASim didn't get his growing up wishes. Ah well. Probably the usual make a friend, get a toy...ect.
In the meanwhile Aelita enjoyed time yakking it up with the girls...forgetting that Keith was there! The party was a "good time" and everyone was glad having come.
The next morning Andrew was in a much better mood and had a some wishes fulfilled with his mom.
Motherhood agreed with Aelita in a big way. This thought made her think of Kieth. Time to see him again.
Andrew headed off to school, Titania had an early shift, and Oberon was doing yoga in the back yard. It appeared Aelita had the house to herself. Keith came right on over.
Woah what is this??? He wanted to get engaged! Oh myyyyy lets see if Aelita throws something the same!
Oberon grew tired and laid down to rest, not noticing Aelita and Keith heading toward the bedroom. Those two just could not help themselves, they were quickly falling in love.
Aelita realized a HUGE wish to have woohoo, and rolled get married to Keith!! Yippeee!!!!!! It was quickly locked in.
Around 3:00 Andrew arrived home from his first day of school. Granny Titania got home from work at the same time. Oh look....it is Mayella Monty, Bottom and Alon's youngest. Making her Andrew's cousin. She came over after school. She gazed at her crazy granny singing out in the front yard.
Titania always grabbed a chance to spend time with her grandbabies. Mayella was intent on granny's wisdom.
Ha look at that. Titania rolled get a new grandchild, and a relative gets married. Aelita!!!!
Grandpa was on hand to assist Andrew with his homework. Poor baby looks so confused!
After homework. Andrew needed to work his fun up in the worse way, and a quick game of pinball with Mayella was just the way to do it!
OOoh what is this??? Titania is hinting to Ada that she and Dimitri need to get started on making kittens! Titania needs to get her LTW of raise 20 kittens! Woo will it work?
Aelita happened to be outside trimming the rose bushes and cheered the cats on. Success!
Keith: Ummm Aelita I had a really good time over here earlier...ya know... *cough cough* How about a piano?
"Hello Ms. Summerdream, we are impressed by your writing prowess. We beg you to make your presence known at our club" Decided to have Titania work on the film and lit hobby plaque.
Oh dang. Better get that wedding show on the road!
Aelita dressed up in her finest gown and asked Keith if he would like to move into the Summerdream home. Of course he said yes. He brought his bank with him. Apparently he was just a "townie" and not a "downtownie". The loot in his back pack didn't add up to much.
Keith came prepared. Had it all planned out.
Aelita was one happy girl, and of course she did not turn him down!

Family - Graduate 3 From College Currently an Architect's Apprentice |
Let's get this party started. :)
Invited from the Monty Ranch: Bottom (Summerdream) Monty and her husband Alon with their oldest son Barron, from Capp Manor: Puck Summerdream and Hermia (Capp) Summerdream. Then there was a couple of odd invitees.
By the time everything was ready for the wedding and everyone arrived it was evening, it was a nighttime wedding!
As soon as the I DO's were done, Keith and Puck engaged in the male ritual of chest pounding. Keith: Yes, I am the male patriarch of the house now.
The buffet table was loaded with food, and the cake was cut. Stereo turned up loud!
Erlina Capp and Barron Monty , along with Hermia (Capp) Summerdream in the gold gown.
Folks finally started loading up plates withe cake and heading inside. Here is Puck with his parents....and then Barron heading over to get a slice of cake. Beyond him is Erlina again, then then just barley seen is Fay (Capp) Gathier, who incidentally was Aelita's teen fling.
Oh look there is Andrew who had grown tired and changed into his pajamas. He had a short nap then slid out of bed to get some cake. Then there is Keith, Aelita, and Erlina.
Aelita was exhausted and had to bed down herself before the party was over. Being pregnant, this is no surprise! The party was a roof raiser anyhow!
Keith was not tired, and decided to study up for job skills...trying not to pay attention to Oberon and Titania in the hot tub outside the door.... (ahem)
The next day life was back to normal. Even though Oberon no longer had to have wishes fulfilled, Titania's had to be! So it was! Titania was moving right on up in her career as she had done it all before, and Dimitri was on hand to give moral support by joining in the after work song and dance. After all, the person who earns the money to pay for his food is the greatest ever!
Yay! Keith promoted up.....he studied his skills a lot!
Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! I got an A+!
Go away, Andrew! Mamma needs to melt away this sore back~!
This sent Andrew right into platinum mood!
Another cousin to Andrew came over after school. It was Atticus Monty! Last time we saw him he was accepting membership to Games of Glory from the gaming dude.
It is a good thing the Summerdreams have a butler to buttle everything. Poor Aelita is just so tired all the time. Hippy couple Oberon and Titania are always engaging in flower power love, working on hobbies or going to work and didn't really want to do anything around the house.
Whilst Aelita slept in her food, Andrew and Atticus managed to work their friendship up enough to play red hands, fulfilling a big wish for Atticus. What wish did Andrew win??? Don't remember, but he is in his pajamas.
Two kittens! Kitty and Festus. Ada looks mighty proud of them.
The next morning the breakfast table talk revolved around the grandchild that would seen be making an entrance to the family. Oberon and Titania were very excited.
They didn't have to wait much longer because right before lunch, the babies came.
Woah! Yay! This will give Aelita her 3 children, but not Keith. There will have to be one more for him.
It was a boy and a girl...this is Neema.
Then carrying Neema....Aelita left her husband downstairs and went all the way upstairs to hand off Neema to Titania, where she then had Phineas.
Andrew: Pee-u! Babies stink!
No Aelita! You are not going to have ten children. ASimWen forbids it!
Keith hadn't shown much interest in the kids, spent his time skilling. He does need logic...and has been stargazing hoping to get abducted to get his third child. Perhaps he will just adopt like Aelita did. What do you all think? Adopt? Or try for abduction?
He did want to make sure that Aelita knew about the two new kittens that were born.
Whilst all that skilling was going on, Andrew finally won the bronze badge in fishing he had been wishing for. This put him in solid platinum, which he should keep for a while!
It was time for the twins to age up on Sunday night...more like a "CAKE UP". No party was had, just the immediate family. It would be hectic enough trying to get two kids to blow out candles!
Phineas Summerdream
Capricorn - Fortune |
Neema Summerdream
Gemini - Fortune |
It is a good thing the twins are Fortune...they will have an easy time in University.
As per the norm, both twins grew up nearly ready to pee themselves. Mom and dad both made smart milk for the babies, grabbed thinking caps and plopped the kids down on the potty chairs. Boom, potty training done.
Go you kids!!!! Yay! This fulfilled a wish for Phineas, but Neema was not showing a wish for potty.
A couple of gratuitous pictures of Neema because gosh darn it she is just so cute.
And this is where we end this visit with the Summerdreams...with Keith winning a logic skill point via stargazing.
Ghostly Encounters
Mr. Huggles came out to visit twice always loving to scare Keith when he was stargazing. Keith was the only person Mr. Huggles picked on!
Summary
This was an action packed visit....Andrew aged up to child and always wished to fish and make friends. He did manage the bronze fishing badge and now wants the silver. Aelita got pregnant and married before giving birth. She now has her three children to Graduate 3 kids from University. Baby daddy Keith moved in and married Aelita...and is working his way through the game given architect career. He himself needs one more child to send through University to reach his LTW of Graduate 3 kids from University. Oberon reached his LTW of max all skills, and no longer has his wishes fulfilled as he is now perm plat. He is working toward the fitness hobby plaque by indulging in yoga when he isn't working. Titania is working her way up through the Slacker career a second time, and earning all those bonuses a second time. She writes books in her spare time to earn the hobby plaque in Film and Literature. Both of the twins learned all of their toddler skills. Score! Ada and Dimitri had two kittens which will nudge the number of kittens raised to 13 for Titania...ooohhh...seven to go before Titania says goodbye. We will think about how to handle that next round!!!!
Oberon: Is 68 days old, and may pass next round. If he does, it will be toward the end of the round. Wishes: Grandson Barron gets a scholarship, go jogging, talk about hobbies, and go swimming. Fears: Burn food, kitten Festus leaves family, and be rejected for a dance.
Titania: Is 66 days old. Unless her life meter moves quickly next round she may last another round. Wishes: Talk about hobbies, get a grandchild, make pottery, and play computer game. Fears all these for cats: Be rejected for give love to Dimitri and Ada, and be rejected for play from Dimitri.
Aelita: Ages up in 20 days. Wishes: have a baby, buy a high chair, teach Phineas a nursery rhyme, and get body level 8. Fears: Dimitri gets sprayed, and death of Keith or Fay.
Keith: Ages up in 26 days. Wishes: sell a masterpiece, have a baby, buy a high chair, and make friends with his father in law Oberon. Fears: sell a lousy painting, Kitty is sprayed, and lose a gaming competition.
Andrew: Ages up in 3 days, or cakes up in two. Wishes: get silver in fishing, go fishing, be BFF with cousin Mayella Monty, and get A+. Fears: Lose Mayella as BF, be rejected for love with Kitty, and lose a game to cousin Atticus.
Neema: Grows up in four days. Wishes: Be read to and snuggled by Aelita, and be talked to and snuggled by Kieth. Fears: Family member dies or breaks up, and spit up.
Phineas: Grows up in four days. Wishes: Talk to Aelita and Keith, nuggled by Aelita and Keith. Fears: Spit up, death of relative, and see fire.
So what do you think? Keep trying for abduction for Keith to get his third child? Or adopt? Leave your comments below!
Next up is the home of Bianca (Monty) and Kent Capp! Thanks for dropping by and see you next time! Remember to get your pets spayed or neutered!

I love Titania's outfit! It is perfect for her! Love how fast Andrew & Aelia fell in love. Graduating 3 kids from college will be a cinch with the twins! Neema is adorable!!
ReplyDeleteOh yes...my Fortune Sims in Uni typically use a lot of influencing to get others to do their term papers, but this generates a lot of aspiration points for them. That leaves them free to develop relationships, or skill up on the hobby benches.
DeleteAdopt would be quicker
ReplyDeleteOh yes I agree....and very fun. I don't do it often. I have done it more in this neighborhood then any other I have played. Both are good options!
DeleteYay twins! I love the Summerdream’s! Aelita is beautiful, I can’t wait to see how her and her handsome hubby’s kids turn out, :)
ReplyDeleteGo Oberon, PP and Titania’s doing well with the new kitties, how odd about the other two dying together.
In other news.. I found my old save of Veronaville so Round 4 is under way :D
OOOOhhh yay! Can't wait!!!! Yes I agree about Snookie and Mr. Huggles. I am not sure what happened there! But it is ok. Did have to use up some time for the two new cats to get to know each other. Will deal with that!
DeleteDoes Keith really need another child? Now that he is married to Aelita, won't all their children count as theirs?
ReplyDeleteI loved this week, always exciting to have new family members, either by birth or move in.
Everyone is doing great, although I felt a little sorry for Andrew when his birthday party ended slightly traumatic for him with wet pants. Don't you just love it when kids bring their cousins home from school.
Yanno I wish I didn't have to bring another child in the house for Keith. Checking the family tree shows he only has two kids, the twins. :(
DeleteOh boy, while abduction is always a lot of fun, gotta love those alien babies, this family has already adopted, so it feels like that could be nice for Keith. Don't want Aelita having another one? They do make cute kids, and she wants it too. lol Love this house and neighborhood.
ReplyDeletei would rather still gave them shakespeare name then non-shakespare
