simsterlyrock | Harding Baby Boomers

Welcome back to the Harding Baby Boomers! Last time, Jordan and Jefferson continued growing their family, their house, and their meager savings.

Current Household:
Jefferson Harding, dad
Jordan Harding, mom
Blanche Harding, girl 1/12
Bellatrix Harding, girl 2/12
Bonnie Harding, girl 3/12
Benjen Harding, boy 1/12

The week starts with the girls making themselves muffins before school, just like most days.

Jefferson heads off to work and Jordan takes care of little Benjen.

Next baby is pretty much confirmed! I'm hoping for another set of multiples. I have the triplets and quads mod installed and both Jordan and Jefferson have the fertility treatment reward thing, so I don't know why I've had so many single births!

Jordan continues to work on painting. They need more money to actually furnish the house and add windows and wallpaper and stuff.

The kids don't bring friends home from school very often, which is kind of sad, but one of the girls did bring one of the Newson kids home on Monday.

Jefferson is slowly making his way up the ranks of Medical. Hopefully he'll top it soon and then we can move on to another career.

Benjen grew up! All of the kids look so similar, but I'm hoping that none of them are clones.
I don't always remember to roll the die in CAS before loading the lot...

Benjen gets some love from mom and then the potty training starts. Maybe one day I'll actually get points for a kid learning all three toddler skills.

While Jordan sleeps, Jefferson and the girls spend the evening studying before going to bed.

One pop closer to baby!

Baby time!

It's a girl named Bitterblue (from the Graceling series). I told you some of the names would get kinda weird. XD

Jordan feeds Bitterblue right away and then puts her to bed.

In the morning, she starts teaching Benjen how to walk.

A few hours later, it's done!

Jordan wastes no time in teaching Benjen how to talk too.

Bonnie wanted to learn Anger Management, so she spends an evening working on it.

Jefferson maxed Cleaning!

Two out of three toddler skills done for Benjen.

It's time for a triple birthday! Blanche is up first. She's Romance/Knowledge with the LTW Become Mad Scientist.

Bellatrix is Fortune/Popularity with the LTW Become Media Magnate.

And Benjen finishes off the birthdays for the day.

The house is slowly coming along with the help of Jordan's painting and Jefferson's promotions. There still aren't any windows, but there's at least actual paint on the walls both inside and out.

I love having teenagers in the house. Free babysitting!

There's another baby on the way!

I missed the doodad (sped up at the wrong second), but Jordan managed to max out Creativity!

Bellatrix starts playing chess with Jefferson while he's working on getting logic for his last promotion.

Little Bitterblue is slightly less little now!

I missed the doodad again (I never even saw it?) but Jefferson maxed out logic.

Maybe Bitterblue will be the lucky toddler who learns all her skills.

I spend so much time trying to keep everyone happy that I rarely get to have everyone sit down together for a meal, so I took advantage of my chance.

One pop closer to the next baby.

Meanwhile, Bonnie is growing up outside. She's Pleasure/Grilled Cheese with the LTW Have 10 Dream Dates.

Bellatrix catches some fireflies and looks so proud of herself.

Baby time!

And it's twins! First up is Barristan (from A Game of Thrones), and second up is Beatrice (named for a character from a handful of the Nancy Drew games).
