Welcome back! We begin this chapter with Ezra on the treadmill. I noticed when I opened the game that he had put on a little “sympathy weight” with Nora, so we set him to work getting back into shape

Nora is outside making us money outside in our enormous garden.

Seriously, the super sell is the best thing to ever happen to gardening in FOREVER

Poor Paxton is sick and tired of skilling and can’t wait to age up so that he doesn’t have to do that anymore.

But what he doesn’t know is that he has to go to school when he ages up

For real though: He’s super cute with his sad pouty face!

Nora cares for our newest addition, Naomi! She’s a pretty chill baby. I haven’t noticed her crying a whole lot.

I mean, she can be crying and my sims take care of it before I see it… but I doubt it…

It’s Ryder’s birthday!!

I should have moved him in with Paisley, but I didn’t. Kid needs to learn to be on his own.

It must be monday!

Nope. It’s actually Wednesday. We got to the school projects late this time. Oh well

Baby sparkles!!

She’s a cutie!

And now that Naomi is a toddler, you know what time it is!!

That’s right! We have baby incoming!

I was hoping that Paxton would max all his toddler skills before his birthday, but we’re not gonna accomplish that. Unfortunately, he’s stuck on level 3 of thinking and his energy is in the red. So that’s not gonna happen

So it was birthday time

He still managed to get the happy toddler trait, so it wasn’t so bad. But he’s off to the bathroom and then off to bed.

THAT FACE!!!!! I’m in love!

Poor Octavia is sad because all her older sibs are gone. Now she’s stuck in a house with little kids.

Doing some gardening while Octavia is still around to help us out.

… It’s a big garden.

Ezra is still trucking away on that aspiration. I’m working on getting him and Nora more of the helpful traits. So that means satisfaction points. So we’re hard at work

And Paxton is hard at work too! He’s hopping back and forth from table to table!

It’s new skill day! So we’re going to max potty and move on…

to thinking! And it’s a family affair!

No pressure, kid!

Baby time!!

Aaaaaaaaaaand it’s a boy…. Welcome baby boy #10 – Emmet
