Sextuplets: The Child Years

Six beds for six little kids
That's right, in the last chapter our six toddlers became six children and this is going to be a long chapter on the basis that I still feel this is one of the least eventful ages.
We'll manage.
I'm going to re-introduce them all as I gave them swanky new makeovers.

Shortwire

Siren

Snow

Sumo

Saturn
(he gets hair later, I actually didnt have time to do the boys make overs…)

And Stag.

Mother Oakley also got a long overdue make over.

And this was basically their lives.
They all did homework together, slept together
(although there was always one who wriggled free from the conformity)

The four fairy kids (Siren, Snow, Stag and Saturn) sleep in the fairy house when given the chance.
Not on my watch! I bought six bunk beds and god damnit all you will sleep in them.

Family shot :)
They really arent that interesting when they're all on their own.
I like to look at all six and remember how unbelievably hard they were to look after as toddlers.

On weekends I get them to play tag together so they are all friends
:3

I tested the tragic clown vial on Oakley, it was depressing.

All six kids are also very clingy and constantly want bedtime stories

Anyway, snooze fest is over. We had to get through the child years because they are about to age up.
We'll see makeovers, jobs, boy/girlfriends and an heir poll!
It's going to be big, I promise

Sextuplets: The Toddler Years

Welcome back. So you remember last time? The Sextuplets. That old chestnut.
Well now we get to watch them grow up a bit – although it is mental, we're basically going to go straight to toddler shots because I couldn't even handle them as babies – good start?

This is Saturn Oddity

This is Shortwire Oddity

Meet Siren Oddity

And Snow Oddity

This is Stag Oddity

And finally Sumo Oddity.
I'm always just going to show them alphabetically because I don't know who was born first, last or anything. On the plus side there wont be loads of birthday shots, just six all at once rather than it spread out. There are some positives here.
But you can see a nice mix of genetics there, well it would be boring if we had six identical kids wouldnt it.
No, that would still be mental.

So this is their life. Let's see how I handle their toddlers years shall we?

Basically what I'm going to show you now is all the photos from their toddler years, I literally can't even think of what to say amongst the chaos. All I will tell you is that I had a system and it was fool proof.

This very rarely happened, but basically my system was that Oakley and Dream would take it in turns to sleep and look after the kids
So while Dream was sleeping Oakley was on mum duty and vice versa. It kept all six of them happy.

Well happy enough.

The house was a mess and there were a lot of tantrums but I did it.
All six toddlers made it to child, they weren't all skilled though ….

Saturn Oddity
Potty Trained and maxed out on the peg box and xylophone

Shortwire Oddity
Was taught how to walk, potty trained maxed out on the peg box

Siren Oddity
Was taught to talk, potty trained and maxed out on the peg box and xylophone

Snow Oddity
Taught to talk, potty trained and maxed out on the peg box

Stag Oddity
Taught to talk, potty trained and maxed out on the peg box and xylophone

And Sumo Oddity!
Potty trained and maxed out on the peg box

So I got potty and peg box bingo at least.
This part wasnt very wordsy – It was all a bit mental. Hopefully it'll be more interesting now that the household is 8 people rather than 6 babies and 2 babysitters ;)
Thanks for reading my quick update and come back for more sextuplety adventures :)

S is for Six Children

Welcome back. I couldn't wait to show you what madness I got up to, so here is the next part.
You remember Dream right?

Well she has a girlfriend and it turns out I am a Mod wizard so everyone, this is my first same sex couple in game that will be heir!
It's magic.
Come one America, catch up and let them marry.

Oh yeah, NOW they are girlfriends.
My game majorly glitched up and it said Dream was in a realtionship with Dartwing (her half sister)
So she had to break that off – but couldn't, so Oakley moved in and asked her to break things off.
It was weird.

Yeah. Well. Let's not waste any time, eh?

I decide that I'm going to have some fun with Alchemy, even though Oakley is an Acrobat that wants to be a firefighter
We need someone at home to look after the future babies.

Hello Annabell, I forgot to move your grave to the graveyard didn't I?

Oakley has the Plague and it is the most annoying thing on the game ever.
I didn't realise until after a painful two days that all it takes to cure it is some chili or honey (much easier to get a hold of then any vials of potions)

Soon after discovering that both were pregnant I quickly got them married so they wouldn't get the vicious "child out of wedlock" rumour to depress them for 3 days,
Come on EA – it's 2012 – no one can afford weddings

I know its not my best idea, but I had Kids music follow them around and they watched Kids TV sometimes, the plan is to have all the kids in one go so we can focus on careers.

You know the title, you've guessed what might happen…

Tonight Tonight!
So first Oakley went into labour, then shortly afterwards so did Dream

So Oakley went to hospital, followed shortly by Dream

Oakley brought home a basket of kids.
And so did Dream.
Then I had a minor heart attack.

My biggest challenge yet. Don't ask which baby is which or what their traits are – I was too busy thinking up names for them all.
In no particular order (and I will make them more apparent as to who is who next time when they are toddlers) please meet the sextuplets:
Siren, Sumo, Stag, Saturn, Shortwire and Snow

This is as far as I've played so I don't even know how stressful this will be yet. Good news is that I think 4 of 6 children are fairies.

Here an Heir, There an Heir

Welcome back. Quick introduction, this is Annabell, but of course you already knew that
Here she is retiring from the magician career path just because she constantly thinks she is missing work and I'm sick of her being miserable.

Instead, she is going to dedicate her time writing novels.
So on a Sunday she'll recieve her 3,000 simoleons a week pension as well as whatever she earns from writing.

This is her oldest daughter Diamond who also only gets paid at the end of the week due to her acrobat career.
She is in the run to be heir alongside her sisters:

Dream and Daughter who are both still teens
The heir is going to be announced when the youngest, Dartwing, is an adult.

So a visual of the important people.
(the male is Chance, Diamonds long term boyfriend. You'll be seeing more of him)

Even though Annabell and Alfred havent seen each other since they're concieved Dartwing they are still a couple.
Well, were still a couple. Not anymore.

But where one relationship ends, another blossoms.

So many things went wrong, they bottlenecked at the stairs to get down to the ceremony, wolves destroyed furniture, Diamond was in an awful mood and just wanted to sleep.
Absolute Nightmare

They did finally exchange rings.
Chance then was like "Great party but I have to go" and left the lot.
He didnt move into the household until nextday when I had to physically force him in. Chance and Diamond also don't wear rings and I had to change Chance's surname at city hall.
Weird.

And even though these two are the cutest in the world, Diamond did not win heirship.
Neither did Dartwing, which is good because she really doesn't do much.

Dream is our Heir! And the next letter has been chosen for her babies but I am not going to reveal that little secret just yet.
But I can tell you a clue, it is a letter used in this sentence!

I decide to keep Diamond around for a while (at least till Sunday to get her stipend) and besides Dartwing is still around … somewhere

Dream finally becomes an Adult, but it's still not Sunday so she'll just have to go spouse hunting until then.

I spent ages tracking someone for Dream, I thought — ooh maybe Pip because he escaped annabell and I'd love him to be in but alas he got back with his old girlfriend.
Then Dream was on the prowl and it turns out she likes women, so I'll have to either play around with some Mods (I am a Mod Virgin) or just find a random guy for her to hook up with for some kids.
So Plan M for Mods or Plan A for Annabell II

Speaking of which, Annabell got old.
It seemed like only yesterday I was making her in CAS
What a lovely yet irratating founder
(always complaining of being lonely and invisible – pah, social sims)

In other news though – Diamond is pregnant!
I did this just in case she was heir but she wasn't. She'll be moving out soo, heavily pregnant.

So far I'm letting Dream have a fling with Oakley Bean, they can get married and everything but until we find out whether or not I am successful at this Mod business we won't know if Oakley will be the spouse or some gentlemen
It'll work like a surrogate system.

Alas, Dartwing has aged!
Yeah, that's what she looks like, remember?

So this is the household as it stands. Too many spares, not enough beds.

Goodbye Diamond, unborn child (who is later born and named Ifran), Chance and Dartwing.

And hello Dream! On her own in the big house, but who will be her partner?
Find out next time

Insert Quirky Title Here

We last left with this exact picture of everyoen who currently lives in the household.
From left to right we have blonde Dartwing, teen Diamond, middle child Dream and founder Annabell.

Annabell is in the magic career, if you weren't aware.
She is not at the top yet, it'll be sad if she doesn't make it.
But in my history of things, the founders generally don't get their LTW

This is how the cave of a legacy household looks at current.
Big, but dark.

Dream grows up in the grubgey sleeping quarters for the girls.
very low budget

Annabell decays into an elder.

Annabell is quite the character, I do enjoy her presence when she's not glitching and worrying about work

Diamond turned into an adult. Its a shame she is so much older than her sisters.
Stupid Annabell being hated by everyone so not being able to have more children quicker.

Diamond joined the Acrobat career under the name Shortwire.

Diamond's graduation, spending the time getting job experience

She bumped into Pip (who is still so young)
and i thought you know, maybe where Annabell failed Diamond could do great things?
Terrible.
But grrrreaaattt.

Thank you Ollivander.

However, she is still dating Chance, so its always just a maybe ;)

Then it finally happened, Dartwing is finally a teen and we can go to the polls.

Voting time people
There has been a poll on for quite some time over here in boolprop which closed then re-opened so you could still have a chance to have your say.
Pick from the three lovely ladies:

Diamond Oddity

Dream Oddity

Dartwing Oddity

ciao

Growing Up the Girls, Growing Out the House

As you may or may not be aware, this is an Alphabet Legacy, we've finally got the 3 kids we need for this generation (I say it like we've had more generations, we really havent. This is the first) so now all is left to do is grow up the D-Girls before picking an heir

So here they are, the 4 Oddity girls.
Here is Founder Annabell with oldest daughter Diamond raising toddler Dream and newborn Dartwing Oddity.

And before you can even shake a cats tail, Dream grows up into a child.
I'll give all the trait information and the like at a later point when I have more time.

On the same night a Zombie attack happens but one of the zombies dies.
How does that work exactly?

This is the current sleeping arrangement as they live paycheck to paycheck

Some shots of Dream, she's a bit weird.

Dartwing as a toddler.

How the rest of the house currently looks, ever expanding.
Its a fun house because I've never attempted to do a layout like I plan to do with this bad boy

Annabell is still super mum, mighty magician and pizza bringer.

This is Chance, Diamond's new boyfriend. And he is so good (minus the fashion sense) and has such a good name that he will marry Diamond if she is heir.
Even if she isnt he'll still get married in.

Haha, I found this amusing, I can't wait to try some Supernatural careers.

Spent a butt load on the bathroom but now it is pristine and we will never have to spend money on it ever again.

BUT then we didnt have enough money to pay the babysitter, so Chance stole the peg box :(

And finally, young Dartwing grows into a child.
She's the only one with blonde hair

And here they are all grown up, not quite ready for there to be an heir poll yet
(even though there has already been one and its over now anyway… I'll probably announce that next time?)
That's all we have time for now folks.

D is for Different Daddies

I have no annoucements, lets just jump in.
Apart from this is really quickly put together

This, to remind you is magician Annabell Oddity. Founder of this darling alphabetacy.

And this is her first and only child (currently) Diamond Oddity.

Annabell is currently, as well as focusing on her career, trying to find a new daddy for another baby.

I love the new "check for monsters" – although its a tad annoying when Diamond does it on her own even though she has literally no energy and gets scared.

Wonderful.
I really dont like IF because they get in the way so much.

And here is the second child of Annabell, Dream Oddity. Her father was the brown haired guy from earlier, Jules? Jay?
Its probably not that important knowing the fathers name, right?

Annabell finally gets another boyfriend, Alfred.
I'm hoping for a fairy baby.

Birthday night always seems to fall on a full moon, here is Dream as a toddler.

And Diamond as a teen.

And baby number 3 is in the oven! And then no more for Annabell.

Sometimes I just observe them and take photos.
Such a cute family.

Half Sisterly love.

So here they are, the 4 Oddity girls.
Founder Annabell with oldest daughter Diamond to raise toddler Dream and newborn Dartwing Oddity.
I know this part isnt very well written, but I have played so far ahead I need to catch up with myself.
Another speedy part soon, perhaps.

All The Boys In Town Know Annabell


So, let me re-introduce our star, Annabell Oddity. The founder of my little alphabetacy, but darn it all she just doesn’t know her ABCs so its all a little mixed up.

In the last part Annabell’s boyfriend passed away after unsuccessfully giving her a child and now I feel very desperate and in need of a child. It’s kind of a big deal to get some offspring.

This is Pip Goodfellow, unfortunately he has a girlfriend/fiance/wife. As is the case with most men in this town.

This is another random gentleman whose name I forgot. I should really make a note of some of Annabell’s “friends”
They could become important.

Like the last guy was. Oh dear.
Well, at least this is 1/3 children.

I can imagine this was awkward for everyone. So firstly, Annabell accused Pip of cheating (remember, he had a girlfriend/fiance/wife before Annabell interfered with his life) THEN Annabell came clean about cheating (if it wasn’t obvious being heavily pregnant) and well, their arguments ruined Pip’s party.

This is little Diamond Oddity, I’ll give her personality traits when I write them down for the heir poll later. And it turns out that guy was her father! Hey oh, then he went and got another girlfriend.
I say another, when really Annabell has been just flirting with these men to get kids, she is a career woman.
No one likes her.
She has a bit of a reputation.

Oh yeah, and as it clear that D is our first generation, but I thought I’d just clarify

This is the legendary Pappy, after this visit I deleted his grave because they just didnt hit it off so much after Pappy’s death.

Little Diamond’s birthday, she is cute.

It also happened to be Annabell’s birthday into adulthood.

Another hopeful Daddy.
Unfortunately, they were unsuccessful also.
I think there is a problem with werewolves not being able to have babies in my game.

I am going to leave it here with one successful Oddity child in the household and Annabell is still hunting around to make 2 more with different fathers (just for a bit of fun really, who likes monogamy ALL the time)

The Quick Brown Fox Jumps Over The Lazy Dog

Hello all, I’ve started an Alphabetacy, but this is just purely for fun and no point scoring. I haven’t given up on the EPIC Challenge just yet, but that restricted me to certain careers and I havent had a full play to see Showtime in all of its potential, and now I have Supernatural and I’m just here to have fun! So this will be a something to play as a break from my EPIC, then when I get sick of this I’ll go back to that and the same again etc.

So Basically it is an Alphabetacy, but I am mixing up the letters (I even have an app on my iPhone to help.) No rules, the basic rules I am keeping are the 3 kids per generation. I may add extra challenges for certain generations but hey, let’s not make too many commitments and just see how mental I’m feeling at the time
No rules. No points. All fun.
I can’t guarentee that the spelling or even the essence of the writing will be very good because if I get caught up in the writing I’ll not want to write which will lead to me not wanting to play and etc. So it’ll be brief and I’ll try supply as much information as possible.
Also I am full time at uni with a part time job so I have very little time for anything.
Sometimes I may just give you a speel of images and you can make your own mind up as to what is going on.

Just bring your fun face.

Boring bit over.

This is your founder, Annabell Oddity.
(She looked a lot better in CAS, I think the graphics are weird on my new screen and everyone looks shorter and rounder than usual, maybe it’s just me)
Her LTW is to be a master magician which is a profession I’ve never tried
C:

This is the humble abode, it is on a big bit of land, not the biggest, but it’ll do.
(Couldnt make it too easy now could we?)

Annabell has a variety of traits and interests, but wouldnt you know I just havent wrote them down.
They were randomised, just like her appearance pretty much.
Off the top of my head, I know some of her traits are: Workaholic, Kleptomaniac, Technophobe,Social Butterfly aaaaaaanndd …. a 5th exciting trait which will be brought to you in a future part.

Let’s be fair though, remember 4 of 5 traits is pretty good. I clearly pay some attention to her.
She gets a job in the magician career.

Meet Oddity Simoddity.
Broke magician extraordinaire, coming to a bookshop near you.

It’s all very exciting seeing werewolves and fairies about so Annabell is constantly meeting male supernaturals.
I want some supernatural babies :3

This is Pappy Wolf, the only singleton I could find in the new Supernatural town
Seriously, everyone is in a relationship.

Thankfully, now Annabell is too, so this Alphabetacy won’t come to a stand still anytime soon.

Annabell has a bit of a reputation around her, a reputation I’ve given her by asking every single man if they were single and spending all of her earnings on flowers to woo them.
It’s unfortunate because no one really seems to like Annabell, it gets to a certain point where she wants to take it to another level and no one really wants to go there with her.

And Pappy is not supplying her with any pups
Is there some kind of fertility problem with wolves or anything?
For a while I genuinely thought they were unable to have kids.

Then one night during a performance, Pappy gets too old and dies, kinda ruining the entire evening (and following two days)

GNOME
(if i was playing for points I’d be pointing myself right not but i’m not)

And here is where Annabell’s sad story ends with the death of Pappy Wolff.
However will she get babies now? Will anyone ever like her?
