Babies 16&17: Another new start - and real love?

 We ended the last post with the birth of Hannah and Leo.
Remember that Nessa is still hanging around Ana's house.

 The worst thing about twins is that when one's hungry...
 So is the other one.
 ... Yeah, I told you Ana and Nessa got pregnant around the same time.
Less than two hours after Ana brought the twins home, Nessa went into labor.
In her house.
Ana, of course, told Cassie and Spencer to watch the younger ones and drove Nessa to the hospital.
 It seems like any time we go to the hospital, someone we know is there...
Ashton and Bella were practicing synchronized freak outs.
- That's a cute couple activity. o3o
 Caspian showed up in record time, really.
- He loves her... *sob* ... so much... *sob*

 Aston and Bella got over the fact that their sister-in-law was in labor and went back to being lovey dovey.
- They're so cute. :'D

 Nessa also came out with twins - that explains the same sized bumps!
This is Ana's brand new granddaughter, Cori Vanderbilt!
 And Ana carried out baby June.
 Now this... this is interesting.
Jessip was still at the hospital from when Hannah and Leo were born.
And he asked Bella, in front of her husband, if she was single.
That's awkward.
- If Ashton were more like Caspian, he would have his ass handed to him right there.
But Ashton is a pacifist and just told Jessip to shove it. ... Respectfully.


 Now, Caspian found the birth of his daughters absolutely DEVIOUS.
- You can just tell. He's so happy.

*~*

 Ana later gossiped with Spencer about the events of the day.
She really needs to stop playing favorites.
 - I'm not! D:
You so are. He's practically a mini Caspian!
- >_>

 Speaking of mini-Caspians, Damon looked a lot like his older brother as well.
- I do love my boys...
 Cassie and Spencer, the first multi-gendered twins, were both geniuses.
Even though they didn't like homework, it never took them long to complete.
They always did it together, too, which ensured that they stay at the top of their class.
 Now, Ana has really come to terms with motherhood, and loves it!
 But then she hates it too.
- I can't deal with three crying babies at once. I'm only human! D:

 ... But then, she loves it again.
- It's nice to have so many kids that just love you for you, though, you know?
Well isn't that cute.
 Of course, when Hannah needed a bottle, so did Leo.
More twins were more stress, and Ana was definitely reaching her breaking point.
 But then Spencer, brilliant Spencer, had an idea.
"Mom?" He wanted to help her, to make his mother's life easier.
"Yes, Spencer?" Ana was distant, worried about what which baby would need next.
"I have an idea. I mean, I thought you might have thought of it already, but just in case. Why don't you just age up the babies now, instead of waiting the few more useless days? It's not like they're going to miss out on any important life lessons by aging up early." He definitely had a point.
"You can even get a good night's sleep if they're both toddlers." He continued to push the point.
 "That's... a great idea. Thanks." Ana was visibly excited and wanted to get the party started.
 Hannah, being the older twin, was up first.
 Spencer, being inappropriate, thought this was absolutely hilarious.
- It's not really his fault he thinks birthdays are hilarious.
 Hannah was adorable, with Ana's hair and eyes. But yes, she definitely had Jessip's eye shape.
- It's a good thing she's not a complete minime. Even though I'm gorgeous.
Yup. I'm getting sick of mini-yous. Well, more like you in general.
- You have got to be kidding me.
You wish.

 Leo's turn - still hilarious to Spencer.
 "Oh my god... a baby... becoming a toddler... it's so... FUNNY!"
 Leo has Jessip's hair, and unique light purple eyes.
He sure is cute!
 Ana was happy to just relax since the toddlers could now entertain themselves for a while.
She started another painting, which actually looked like it had some potential!
- Gee. Thanks.
 Of course, it never lasts too long. But Ana's okay with that.
- Sometimes.
 Yup - Hannah was definitely Mama's girl. (:

 At this stage, the twins were starting to be a little less like clockwork in their needs.
- Which was total relief. Seriously.

 Ana was definitely behind on skilling Damon, so she taught him to talk that night.

 "Is it ready yet?" Ana whispered into the phone.
"Just give me another day." The person on the other end hung up.
 Cassie liked to swim in her formal wear and work out in her every day wear.
She wears athletic clothing to school, and sleeps in her swimsuit.
- It's better than choking herself, right?
True.
 Now, Damon is the cutest thing ever.
This has absolutely no relevance to the story, no. He's just so cute.

*~*
Notice the similarities between these next three pictures.


 Ana's pout.
 Leo's absolutely PRECIOUS "Mommy hold me" face.
 And Hannah's "Just ONE MORE LOLLIPOP?" face.
 Please?

 *~*

The next day would be a momentous one for the Vanderbilts.
Ana sat down her entire brood to break the news to them.

 "Cassie... Spencer... Mariposa... We're moving."
"When? Where? Why? HOW?" The kids threw questions at Ana.
"Now. The other side of town. Because I hate this house. And with the money I've been saving for a long time. I've always wanted this house. This house is just PERFECT for us. I promise, you'll all love it."
The kids were skeptical, but didn't have a choice. They'd be moving tonight.

*~*


 Ana made the call to her realtor, who had finally finished decorating the house to her liking, and confirmed the move right then.

*~*

 Here is an outside view of the entire house.
Ana christened the move by peeing herself on her brand new lawn.
- ... That was really unnecessary... You didn't let me pee before we left!

And now we commence the tour of the house!


 Here's the living room. It's a lot more calm than in the other house, and there's definitely ample seating.

 The other side of the living room - the computer, bar, and stereo are over there.
- All the fun stuff.
 Dining room.

 The cute little corner kitchen.
 Downstairs bathroom.
 Boys' bedroom, upstairs.
 Girls' bedroom.
 Upstairs bathroom.
 Ana's bedroom, in her favorite color.

 The nursery was kept pretty much the same as in the old house, because that was the only room anyone actually liked.

*~*


 Everyone coming home sweet home.
The older kids loved the new house, all of them thinking it was absolutely gorgeous.
- And they hadn't even seen the pool in the back yet!

 Hannah, however, was not impressed.
- Because she's not old enough to go swimming.

 But Mariposa liked the new living room. The chairs were comfy.
- Not to mention the giant TV.
The new house already had an area for the garden fenced off.
It was actually a nice white picket fence this time, too.
Ana also brought her sprinkler with her on the move, so this garden will never get wilty.

A lot of good memories were going to be made in this house, yes- and hopefully no bad ones.
Damon took his first steps in this nursery, in this house.
Good memory number one: check.

Ana was radiant. She loved this house. 
Things were looking up now, and Ana was eager to continue the challenge.

She was so happy, in fact, that once the kids left for school in the morning... she danced.
I'll hand over all narration to Ana at this point. Do enjoy.

- So, I was totally getting jiggy with it, right? I mean, I'm just so happy now. This house is amazing, my kids are great, and face it, we all know that I'm awesome.
... No you're not, dude, don't lie.
- I thought you said this was MY time?
I had to. Carry on.

- Anyway, have you guys heard that song by that nine year old? Yeah, well, I am the MASTER at whipping my hair back and forth, let me tell you.

- And this is a move I made up myself. It's my signature bit.

- And who DOESN'T love a good fist pump once in a while?

Thank you for that delightful peek into your brilliant mind, Ana. *facepalm*

*~*

This morning was a special morning. It's time to break in the kitchen appliances.

Yeah. You know what I'm talking about. It's pancake time.

"OHMYGOD IS IT BURNING?"
- ... I didn't want to burn my new house down, okay?
It's okay. You have about as much faith in your cooking as I do.

But she was worried for nothing.
The house is still in one piece, and she has delicious apple pancakes.

(:

*~*

Now, when I tell you the kids really enjoyed the house, they did.
But what they seemed to love more was the back yard.

This house, this yard, brought them closer together.
Mariposa and Spencer loved just throwing around the football, while Cassie watched and did her homework.
She wanted to get an A in school so she and Spencer could move out.
There was only room in the house for one more baby, and single births are no fun.

Impressive posture there, Spence.

But once it got too dark to play outside, the kids came back in and played video games together.

Damon finally finished learning how to walk!

He's probably the cutest little boy ever.

Once all of the children were asleep, Ana decided to go try out the new pool.
Yeah, this was definitely the life.
So much better than the old house.

Another perk of this house?
The fireplace.
With purple fire, aw yeah.

The next day was Saturday, and since all the kids would be home, Ana enlisted Cassie and Spencer to babysit for her while she ran some errands and tried to find the next daddy.
She found herself outside of the Goth mansion.
Why, you ask?
Well, Madison and Kennedy live there now.
- They're pimpin'.


So Ana and Madison had a nice conversation about nothing except Madison, because that's all Madison knows how to talk about.
Meanwhile, at home, Cassie and Mariposa had some bonding time.
Mariposa loved the outdoors and sports so much  that that day, she decided to become an athlete.

Mariposa even convinced Cassie to go fishing with her in their own private pond.

And of course, more inseparable twins - Hannah and Leo played house together. (:

Spencer of course was doing things he shouldn't do - like underage drinking.
 
Ana came home right before it was time for dinner.

And yeah, as she made the mac and cheese they were supposed to have for dinner, Cassie peed on the floor.
- I was like, gross, I'm trying to cook here...


Mariposa caught a fish earlier in the day, and she wanted to keep him in her room.
So Ana got her a fishbowl to keep her goldfish George in.

Cassie helped out greatly with the toddlers, even teaching Hannah how to walk.

Guys, sometimes I wonder myself if there's something a little off about Ana that isn't seen within her traits.
Like, if she's evil, or inappropriate.
Take this, for example.

There's nothing going on. But it's apparently hilarious.



What's not hilarious, however...

Spencer strikes! Yeah. He's exactly like Caspian.
Except when poor Leo cried, he didn't console him. :c


Sunday night, and it was time for Damon's birthday party.
Yeah, you guessed it - growing up is so damn funny.

Damon's quite an adorable child!
His eyes are still just a wonder.

Since the next morning would be Damon's first day of school, and a momentous occasion, Ana made sure to get up hours early to prepare a nice breakfast for the family.

This was also a big day for Cassie, Spencer, and Mariposa - they were all aging up.

Oh, now that it's your own birthday, it's time to be serious, isn't it.

 Here is Cassie as a young adult. She's gorgeous, isn't she?

And Spencer... well, he's like Caspian in a lot of ways.
He looks just like him. xD
Download him here: http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=3814206


Mariposa was a gorgeous teen, too.
She pulled her hair back, since it's hard to run with it in your face all the time, and that's what she does.
She also liked to wear loose fitting, comfortable clothes she could do anything in, and no makeup.

Hannah loved that Ken doll. I think she might want to marry it at this point.

But it was time for her to put Ken away and learn to talk.
Apparently Ana wants her to be a computer whiz.
- So she can hack herself money. It's cool.
You're a great mother, you know that?

What did I tell you? Caspian, Caspian, Caspian. 
Mama's boy gave her a call the next morning, right before she was heading off to find a new daddy.

And this was our man.
His name? Scorpio Cornell. (Created by me.)
- He was clever there, with the scorpion tattoo.

Ana only talked to him for a few minutes before she knew he was next.
What made that decision for her?
Yes, you guessed it - he's evil too.
What's the fascination with evil guys?
- They're dangerous. I like dangerous. ;D

And dangerous liked Ana, too.

Really, really liked her.
- Yay for making out in public. ;D

Now, Ana had never looked at any guy this way... I was starting to get worried.
Did she really love him? Was she going to want to stick with this one forever?
- I would. But we all know you won't let me. *huff*

But come on, you know I let you have fun with him. More fun than usual.
- ... Yeah. ;D

Not long after, baby sixteen was on its way.

*~*

Although Ana loved her boys best, little Hannah was definitely growing on her.
She spent more time with him than Leo, even.
- There's something about her, okay? And. I love all my kids equally, thank you.



I missed Ana's first time vomiting, unfortunately.
But you can tell she did. That's disgusting.

Ana was pretty lonely that day, longing for some adult interaction.
So she invited none other than her favorite daughter-in-law Nessa over.

Nessa brought over Cori to meet her grandma.
The two talked for a while, about everything and nothing.
Ana filled in Nessa about Scorpio, and her feelings, but Nessa set her straight.
"If you're serious about this challenge," Nessa advised, "You'll just keep going. If he's the one, he'll wait for you."
"Well, weren't YOU serious about the challenge?" Ana asked. "You kinda settled down."
Nessa just nervously laughed it off.
Double life much? Seriously. xD

Ana then played with her precious granddaughter before setting her down and politely removing herself to vomit once again.

I really don't think puke should be radioactive green.

A few hours later, nausea struck AGAIN.
This pregnancy had been really hard already, even.

"Yup, there's definitely a baby in here."

Ana wrapped up the speech lessons with Leo.
"Yeah, 'llama' is an important word. Especially if you ever feel the need to call someone's mother one." Ana recalled her fight with Steve, and laughed. "Definitely an important word."

Yup, Scorpio called. They had a long, intimate conversation.
Cute. o.x

Ana was already getting pretty big, even though it was only the end of day one.

- Picture perfect, even pregnant. ;D

Yeah, I was pretty sure it was multiples at this point.
Oh, and Hannah knows where to potty now. Awesome.

"Mommy, I wuv you."

"I love you too. Now get some sleep, sweetcheeks."

Preggo gardening!

And now it was just a matter of time. Ana relaxed in her beautiful back yard while waiting for labor to hit.

Daaaaaamn.

Since just sitting around wasn't going to induce labor, Ana decided to swim.
So yes, she preggo swagged on over to the pool.

I bet you haven't seen a heavily pregnant woman jump like that, ever.

"Uhh... Geoffrey... no naughty thoughts! I just wanted you to have my new address."

"So I'm guessing you just want to know the gender of the baby and get rid of me?" Poor Geoff.
"No, actually. I want it to be a surprise. Seriously, I just wanted to make sure you know where I live. Okay bye." Ana asked him to leave, politely of course.

So then she went inside to spend some quality time with Damon.


"Aww! Come on, Mom!"

"Aww, come on, Damon!"

... Aww, come on, baby.

Poor Damon. He really didn't need to see that.

This right here is Ana's preggo girl swag. Preggo girl swag.
Oh yeah, we're going to the hospital for this one.

One freaked out bystander...

Two freaked out bystanders!

Scorpio showed up of course.

Ana comes out holding baby 16: Sierra Vanderbilt!

And Scorpio, with Sierra's twin sister, Sabrina Vanderbilt!

Welcome to the world, babies 16 and 17.
