rena1211 | Round 9: Parker

Previous round: Alec and Christine had not 1, but 2 baby boys - no twins though. Douglas was born quite at the beginning of the round and is already a toddler. His little brother Milton was born a few days later. Alec will have a third child - but not with Christine. During the Harris round he knocked up Eleanor.

This round: Well, with everything going on I wouldn't call it "unexpected"

Time to get back to their cube house! (Not my favorite type of architecture but I still think that it fits for them)

The round started without fights. Alec made grilled cheese - his way of saying "I love you". And it helps with his LTW

Doug still needed to learn talking

Success!

Milton was too young for any kind of training. He just wanted his milk

Alec might have some romance sim vibes but he and Christine still are two knowledge sims so their wants are often about skilling. With playing chess they can do it together

I want to keep the look of the house quite clean, but maybe some colour would be good?

Better

So disappointing

Since no one can live from 3.000 § a day, Alec went to Jupiter (his store, not the planet) to earn more money

Since his employee Alexander O'Neill died, he needed another employee: townie Dakota will do the refilling from now on

Alec has way too many bolts with way too many women

Aimee (by Slyndsey) is cute, but you're married and you've cheated enough!

Yesssss

Alec's Dad Marcus Hill was also here. I'm surprised he had enough money to buy something

Even without the business perk the store is making enough money

Meanwhile back home... Thanks, they definitely need it for more money (still doesn't hurt for more taxes)

The kitchen also got a bit more clutter and decoration

Tickles for Doug

Double birthday!

Guests were Alec's parents Marcus and Riley Bradbury as well as his brother Peter Baker and his maternal half-sister Spencer Bradbury

Doug's room got a makeover

Milton inherited Doug's old bed

Here's Milton! He's cute

Every now and then there must be shown a PT face

Alec felt more like relaxing after work and the birthday

Christine wanted to teach Milton how to walk so they started the training

Let's not forget to show Doug after his birthday. He had a high chance to roll for glasses but he didn't

Kisses for Gram!

Hugs for Peter! Alec and Peter have always been quite close. They also are 4 days apart - just like Doug and Milton!

Time for the 6 arguments!
Christine: "We can't travel around the world! We have 2 boys and the town hasn't unlocked vacation destinations yet!"

Alec: "A man can still dream, can't he?"

After the fights ACR jumped in

Milton didn't know anything about his parents' fight

Neither did Doug

Another workday! It's always surprising how the employees can always hear their boss' shouting

Patricia Sullivan and townie Valentina were the first customers today

The reporter guy was also here

Alec was happy to see his paternal half-sister Avery Hill! (He has so many half-siblings... Doug and Milton will have tons of cousins)

Thanks a lot!

Eleanor Harris also showed up - she's still pregnant with Alec's baby

Christine did what she loved the most (after her boys) - reading

It was Monday and Doug's first school day!

Milton still had some time before he had to worry about school

Nothing much happened till Doug came home again - with Travis Winchester. That's quite cute since their dads were also best friends

Travis: "Everyone knows that your Dad's cheating!"
Rude.

Christine invited her friend Benjamin Reid. Since his fiancé Alexander died, he could use some company

With knowledge sims as parents, they'll always make sure that Doug is doing his homework

Grandpa Marcus also came over for dinner

Milton was already sleeping

When Doug was also asleep, Christine and Alec went on a date

Morning play time between Doug and Milton

Christine went to work today

With Christine being at work, Alec and Milton had some father-son-time

Alec's friend Scarlett Holland walked by, so he said Hello

Milton still needed to learn some more words

Doug came home with Scarlett's daughter Emily Holland - how fitting

They played a bit Mary Mack

Alec: "Congrats on having so many friends!"

Christine came home with Amber Baker. She's Scarlett's cousin, so Scarlett has a lot of family members over here

Alec served grilled cheese for everone

Emily joined the adults

Meanwhile Doug wasn't hungry yet and he still had homework to do

Child-toddler-interactions are too cute

Christine went to work again

The genie lamp is actually Milton's but Alec used it anyways. There are many kids who will grow up to adults this and next round so we need more working spaces
