Last time, Don hit up anything that could walk in the hopes of clearing out big ticket wants, Cass gave birth and quickly got pregnant again, new baby Ethan grew up to toddler and had basic wants.
Cass: Play with, have a baby, entertain, invite someone over, talk, meet someone new. First: Play with (Ethan, when she wakes up).
LTW: Become Mad Scientist
Career: Science, level 7
Don: Meet someone new, throw a party, work out on exercise machine, make out with 10 sims, entertain, invite someone over. First: Work out on exercise machine.
LTW: Have 20 Simultaneous Lovers
Career: Medicine, level 8
Not sure why but both Cass and Don have new LTW. I was able to get Cass’ back, but Don’s medical one refuses to appear. He has 9 loves, so I guess we’ll just hope to get 11 more someday.
Ethan: Grow up well, nursery rhyme with Don, talk with Don, be tickled by Don. First: Be tickled by Don.
+~+~+~+~+~+
Cassandra plays with, hugs, talks, and then tickles little Ethan. She only has wants for her little boy today.
Mandy Pittman brought over a date gift in the form of a hot tub, which Don promptly sells before Cass can see it.
Cass brings home a promotion to level 8.
Brandi calls and invites Don on an outing, and he agrees.
While waiting for the taxi, Ethan has his birthday. He has wants about normal boy stuff.
Don meets Winifred Bates on his outing and is quickly smitten. In fact, he ends the outing early so he can ask her on a date.
Brandi waddles by. The outing consisted of her, Dustin, Beau and Brandon. It was definitely a lame outing, but it ended at “good”-ish.
Don’s downfall is that he’s basically a dumbass. He wanted to invite Winifred home and as soon as she agreed they left the club. He wants to woohoo her, woohoo in a hot tub, and in a bed.
It’s her first time and she must have initiated it, because the special event camera is still turned on.
Mandy had a brainfart and forgot she brought a gift over (or he dated her twice *shrug*), so she brought by another gift. The evidence was quickly sold.
Not shown: While selling the gift, Cass wakes up and catches Don and Winifred in the hot tub when she was heading to the bar to get drunk.
She hates Don, but keeps him around because a son needs a father..and his paycheck. Ethan wants an A+, he wants to do his homework, and he wants help with his homework. Luckily, Cass is home and ready to do her part.
Don comes home from work wanting to slow dance, knowing it was going to be turned down, I had them try anyway. It didn’t work, but at least the want is gone. The argument they had upset poor Ethan.
DUMBASS Cassandra rolls the want for TEN kids.
I hope your happy now, girl.
Lorraine, Candace and Bart are born. I’m not sure why Bart is so light skinned, but at least the boy is easier to tell apart.
Don comes in and takes care of all three while Cassandra checks out their new house.
As per my usual, I did take a picture at night of the new house. There was a garage on the right side, but I removed that whole area and put in a pool.
Funny thing, they have the stove that has a cook. No one will starve here and I’m not inclined to make any changes yet.
Don has dinner with Ethan before sending him off to bed, changing diapers, feeding the babies and heading off to bed too.
I made the mistake of changing the time while Cass was at work, she’ll be gone for like 24 hrs. Whoops.
Ethan brings home Oliver, one of the boys Kaylynn took in at the Orphanage in Round 2. (which I forgot to post about in round 2)
Since it was my own error, I had to cheat Cass’ stats while she was gone to keep her alive. She returns home on time, a day later. I have her and Don apologize to each other and then Don wanted to talk about a hobby. Cass knows she can’t care for 4 kids by herself and chooses to make the best of a bad situation.
Cass tops her career, completing that want.
With money on hand again (they were left with nothing after buying the house), Cass hires a gardener, maid, and butler. Completing some wants in the process of that.
Ethan wants Oliver as a friend and to talk to Oliver, so they have a chat.
We have toddlers now!
Cass gets home from work in time to tuck them all in to bed, one by one.
Candace
Lorraine
Bart
I did not know that butlers did potty training. I would make him do it forever, but Cass can make smart milk now.
Which Bart gets first and learns his skills in a blink of an eye.
Don is slowly worming his way back into Cass’ good graces.
But he’s still trying to be the best dad. He talks and sings rhymes with each toddler, becoming best friends with all three on Saturday.
ACR kicks in and Cass gets pregnant.
Don falls back in love with Cass, but it is not reciprocated, yet.
Bump!
We finally get rid of the cafeteria stove, so now the butler is being annoying and is dismissed.
Candace
Lorraine
and Bart age up at 6 pm Sunday night, ending the round.
Ethan will become a teen in Round 4.
~+~+~+~+
Ugh, toddler skilling and Don and Cass trying to keep their marriage intact was the name of the game after they moved into the new house on Tuesday.
Don: Don did have wants, but they had to be ignored for the good of the family. Luckily he was able to be kept going with talking about hobby or going swimming.
Ending wants: Meet someone new, fall in love, woohoo 20 sims, make out with 10 sims, buy a vacation home, quit job.
Cass: Cass only had eyes for kids. She did all the toddler skilling, keeping Ethan entertained and doing her best to forgive Don.
Ending wants: Have a baby, have 10 kids, be best friends with Lorraine, Bart gets into Private School, Bart gets an A+, Ethan gets an A+.
Ethan: Ethan was pretty easy. He always wanted to swim, talk to Oliver, or do homework. There was a couple of tell inside joke to mom/dad too.
Ending wants: Get an A+, grow up well, see snow, be best friends with Oliver
Bart, Lorraine, Candace: Literally just toddler wants, mom/dad wants. They just had their birthday. They all three want to see snow, buy an electronic game system, make a friend and gain a skill point.
