Growing Sims

More on the ''whorehouse".  Serena was Roxie's new flatmate and rival.

She was more to Damien's liking than the tarty Roxie.

While the pregnant Serene was at the front pashing Damien, Roxie was round the back of the house

getting it on with Pierre.

Any man is fair game to Roxie, even her own son, Artois.

Of course, because he was adopted by his father, Henri, there's no trace of a family link.  It's still rather disturbing though.

She's quite capable of getting pregnant by her own son and his offspring would be his sibling.  Ugh, shudder.  Let's not go there.

Serena had the baby - another girl for Damien.  He dropped by to see her.

Her name is Lithia.

I wonder if she'll look anything like her father (Damien's other two daughters don't).

Pierre was still not impressed with Serena's apparent betrayal and slapped her.

What an arsehole.

Alex had met Robin a couple of times including at her place.

They'd got to know each other quite well but had yet to have a proper date. 

So Alex rang Robin and they went on a date to P.U.R.E.  After a soak in the tub they danced.

They kissed.

In short, they had a dream date.  But Robin didn't want to let this moment pass.  This guy was rich and available.  Why waste any more time?

Alex was shocked but accepted.  (After all he needed someone to look after his young kids.)

As Robin left, Alex had to go and sit down to recover from the shock. 

Kenny, one-time vampire, died, age (you guessed it) 72.

Melody's only just reached 60 I think so she's still got a long way to go.  Daughter, Lyrica, is at uni.  I won't bother updating on them after this.

Damien, rather sick of wife, Marla, ringing up Alex all the time, as well as having two daughters that look like their mother, decided to visit Roxie's place where a ravishing new flatmate had just moved in (Serena deMarr).  Such was the attraction between them that within minutes they were in bed together.  After only a day Serena had become pregnant.  

Roxie hates Serena because Serena finds it all too easy to attract Roxie's "clients".  Pierre fell in love with her but Pierre is now upset with Serena for flirting with Damien.  More on those two later perhaps (I didn't take any pics).

Hogan, son of the long deceased Sharlene, has finally achieved his LTW of becoming Mayor.

His wife, also a mayor, now wants to be a business tycoon, which is all good - after all you can't have two mayors I don't reckon.

Finally over to Daniel's who I haven't written about for some time.  He achieved his LTW of maxing out all 7 skills.  His daughter Dana had a son called Jess (after his father Jessie Greaves, who ran off with Robin Collie).  Deon, over at the green house, now has two rather unattractive daughters (the "Helen" gene is still strong).

Lena, now school age, is being held here by Uncle Sean (married to Margareta).

The second pregnancy resulted in another daughter, now a toddler.

She looks like a boy.  On hearing he had another daughter Deon said "fuck  it" (Ok, I did).  So her name is Fukita.  Third time lucky perhaps (Angel is, reluctantly, pregnant again.)

Margareta's daughter, Shona, takes after her mother and looks normal, thankfully.  She's in this pic below, taken at Harriett's.  These kids are all cousins.

Shona is the blonde on the left and the red-head is Alexis.  They're third cousins. 

In the red dress is Mairead, daughter of Kane, and the dark-haired girl is Harriett's daughter Briony.  They're first cousins.  Alexis and the other two are second cousins.  Looks like I need to alter some hairstyles.

Francois died, age 72. 

He'd just been on the phone.  Perhaps it was the shock of hearing that his daughter had split up with Alex and moved in with Kane.  Naturally Katya was upset.  She's now in a big house on her own.

72 seems to be a popular age to die lately.  Pierre has managed to get past that magic number and reached 73.  Pierre has reached his LTW of Professional Party Guest (just like his mother).  About time, I think.  He's been seen visiting Roxie Sharpe's place.  More on Roxie and her new flatmate at a later date.

Over at Henri's, Erina still believes she's pregnant and refuses to go to work, even though she's an elder.  I made her retire, silly old bag.  I think she and her actual daughter, Stella, are just a wee bit insane - they love going up and down the lift and I hear 'bing' 'bing' 'bing' 'bing' as they can't make up their minds what the hell they're doing or where they're going.

Nothing much happening at Monique's.  Just a family pic to finish with.

The middle child, Jacques, is in bed asleep.

Part 1 - Kane

Amelie was angry at Kane for actually sleeping with his wife(!), but they eventually made up.  They had a lame date at the Love Maze but then Kane invited Amelie home (while his wife and kids were home) and actually asked Amelie on a date then and there.  Kane's daughter, Mairead, witnessed it.

Kane sent her off to play but she came back.

Mairead was not happy with her father.  Siobhan was in bed at this point - she was tired after just having given birth to a baby boy (Seamus) the day before.  But she woke up,

and came running out when she realised what was happening in the spa pool.  She wasn't too impressed either.

After a good slapping, Siobhan attended to the children and Amelie left.

The next day Siobhan made a decision.

Kane was given his marching orders.  (Lightning struck just as I took the pic - which is why it's so bright.)  Mairead was still upset that her father left, even though she'd been angry with him.

Kane left and moved into a tiny square house by the sea in Bluewater.

Part 2 - Amelie

Alex was cuddling his baby son when he looked out the window and saw Amelie and Kane canoodling at the front gate and ran out.

Kane, at least, was happy.  Alex and Amelie fought.

The whole time the baby was on the ground crying with dirty nappies.  However, Alex took no time at all to make his decision.  It was all the evidence he needed to get rid of a cheating wife.

Amelie sobbed pitifully and left.  She moved in with Kane in the little hovel by the sea.

Alex is now free to get to know Robin better.

Nothing much happening but Victoria's family of two boys are growing.  Reefer's gone to uni and looks very much like his dad, Guillaume and grand-dad, Francois.

His little brother, Peyote, was upset to see his father flirting with a workmate.

Victoria didn't seem concerned at her father's death at all.

Francois is nearing the end of his life.  Pierre and the rest have a little way to go.  Emma is flirting with every guy she meets.

Over to Henri's.  Erina never did have the baby she kept saying she was having and grew into an elder on the same day as Henri (no pic).  Stella moved back home and looked after toddler, Hollandia, when she wasn't out being a bagman.  I don't think I took a pic of Hollandia after she grew to school age.  Artois is at uni.

(Behind him is Zen Collie.)

At Monique's, the family of three boys are growing.  Eldest, Jean, is now a teen.

Youngest, Gerard, grew from toddler:

to school age.

Monique's LTW is to have three children graduate - damn.

Not very interesting posts, I have to admit.  I was concentrating on Alex for a while but like to keep the others' ages relative so do quick updates on them all.  Otherwise I forget.  I might just concentrate on one or two families in future.  If you have a favourite - let me know!

Amelie gave birth to a boy and called him Mikhail.  She was relieved - she didn't want to have another kid.  She seems bored and wants to go out with Kane.

Jeremy managed to see his latest grandson just before he died, age 73.  That night the ghost of his mother had scared him as if in warning.

Alex was upset but no-one else. (I turned the sun on so it's visible)

Alex is aware of Amelie cheating, but he's met Robin Collie (ex-wife of now deceased Leon Collie) and fancies her.  Watch this space.

Update on Victoria under 'Champignon' next.

Edward died age 72.

Richard, naturally, didn't really care.

Nor did Kane.  Kane's wife, Siobhan, is heavily pregnant with the second child.  First child, Mairead, is now school age.

Kane continues to meet Amelie (Lillard) on the sly. 

Kane was promoted to dread pirate.

Harriett's family are growing up.

Caitlyn grew to teenhood (above) while the twins grew to school age.

Their father, Luc, has been promoted to GP.

I hadn't played the Brokes for a while because Angela, married to Dustin, was older than her sister, Lilith.  I got Lilith to the same age so started playing again.  Angela got promoted to Counter Intelligence.  The kids grew up on the same day.  Skip junior became a teen.

Belle grew to school age.

I didn't play Beau because he was the same age as Dustin and should be younger.  Over at Chip's, Jeanette's puppies grew to dogdom.

Spodge is a big male (above) and Spinky is a small female terrier.

Chip got them to try for puppies.  Spinky is now pregnant.  Chip doesn't have a girlfriend and Jeanette doesn't have a boyfriend or even knows any males but she wants her first kiss.  Sister, Nancy, is alone at the family home.  She doesn't have any male friends either.  They may all die without offspring.

I realised, after referring readers of the last entry to the Kent family, that I hadn't actually updated for a while.  That's because I haven't actually done much with any of them.

Robert went to uni and was in the same dorm as Teri.  So here are a couple of pics:

Teri was going out with Johnny Random who died in a freak fire.  No other boyfriends on the horizon and Robert doesn't appear to have a girlfriend either.  More on the family when I've actually played more.  I tend to get bored playing the Sims at university (which is why I make most of them drop out).
