#MAU: Rose Greenman

[malvernsims]

The girls are thrilled to meet their baby brother, especially Saffron who was literally jumping with joy.

Meanwhile Jason was spiraling into aspiration failure because he’d had a fear of having a baby. Not sure why but he’ll get over it when he remembers his LTW is to graduate 3 kids from university and Daisy isn’t technically related to him and therefore won’t count for that.

I had sent Rose to work since plantsims aren’t affected too badly by pregnancy and she came back partyway through Daisy’s date with a promotion!

And then she popped into her last trimest a few hours later!

[malvernsims]

Rose and Jason get home together, both with promotions. They’re getting really close to completing their respective LTWs.

Later that night Rose discovers there’s some other exciting news in store for the family. She’s pregnant!

[malvernsims]

Saffron is up next, she was really excited to smash the cake. Or maybe she wanted to play with the flames?

Her new trait is never nude.

Jason and Rose slip away for some other activities.

Things are pretty uneventful right now, the family spends most of their time skillings (including the toddlers). And since nobody needs to eat, sleep or pee they can go hours at a time studying under sun lamps before they need a quick shower to bring their water meters back up.

Rose goes into labour later that evening.

For some reason the entire family decides to gather in the doorway to her and Jason’s bedroom instead of actually going inside to witness the birth.

It’s a baby boy! Meet Basil Greenman, there’s a good chance he’ll inherit the plantsim gene when he grows up into a toddler so this might be the only time you see him as a regular sim.

[malvernsims]

Ooh she tried to charm him autonomously and it worked. I think they only have 1 bolt so this was a welcome surprise.

I missed her first kiss! :( I was distracted and missed the end of the date where they said goodbye, I didn’t think they had a high enough relationship that they’d kiss goodbye. At least it was a good date.

[malvernsims]

The younger girls both wanted to learn to study so Jason and Rose helped them with their homework when they got home from work.

[malvernsims]

Rose scores a promotion from a chance card, although I’m pretty sure she was going to be promoted anyway.

[malvernsims]

I almost missed that two of the fruit trees are ready for harvest but they’re in poor condition so Jason and Rose chat with them to make them feel better before harvesting the fruit.

[malvernsims]

This family loves to dance with each other, and now that Saffron and Lilac are older they get to join in. Daisy is also more than happy to dance with her younger sisters.

[malvernsims]

And last but not least it’s Lilac’s turn to blow out the candles!

She’s on the more apprehensive side, her new trait is coward.

[malvernsims]

We’re hopping on over to the Greenman house now, where Rose is tending to the family’s small garden and making sure the trees are happy. Jason is at work, Daisy is at school and the youngest daughters Lilac and Saffron are playing in the nursery.

The ROS challenge scared me for a moment because Rose and Jason are a 3 bolt couple and they both have Family as one of their two aspirations and going on blind dates would be traumatic for either of them. Then I realized Daisy is due to age up in a few days so she can do it, that’ll also give the family some time to make more money to fund the endeavour since they only have a few hundred simoleans at the moment.

For the final day of the rotation Malcolm visits the Electronics Supercenter again. He calls in help so he can focus on the customers.

Jason brought Rose Greenman home from work and for some reason Jodie decided to bully her causing her to cry.
