Unlocking the Uberhood | Week 1 | Broke

[simsterlyrock]

It's been a really long time since I've posted anything here, but I'm back with a new challenge! It's a twist on the Uberhood challenge as I start in Pleasantview and have to complete different goals to unlock the rest of the 'hoods.




I randomize the play order and up first is the Broke family! I failed to get pictures of all of them post makeover though.




Here's their cottage, but this was also taken at the end of the week because I forgot to snag it at the beginning so things are a little different when I first start.




Brandi starts to potty train Beau right away. Brandi is Family/Popularity with the LTW Become Captain Hero.




I had planned on keeping the pizza box closed until Dustin was home from school, but Brandi got hungry and opened it up.




The welcome wagon was John Burb and Darren Dreamer and they both helped themselves to pizza. I am curious to see if anything happens between John and Brandi because they have 3 bolts and I feel like most times I've played Pleasantview they end up having an affair.




Brandi pops into her final pregnancy with her now-dead husband.




Beau ends up growing up on the first night.






Brandi makes herself some pancakes after the boys are off to school.




Dustin wanted to use the computer after school but Brandi was getting a job in Law Enforcement, so he wasn't able to use it. And since this is the first time he's showed up so far (whoops) he's Fortune with the LTW Become Hall of Famer.








Brandi takes advantage of her maternity leave to get some skills before she has to actually go to work.




Beau came home with a want to get homework help, so Brandi helps him out.






Brandi gets interrupted by labor though, and gives birth to Betty.




I missed whatever interaction Dustin and his girlfriend Angela Pleasant had, but they fell in love!




Dustin also gets his first kiss, which he's had the want for since day one.






Brandi gives Betty a bottle in the morning before hiring a nanny and heading off to work.




I like seeing the siblings interacting in a sweet way by playing catch.




Betty has her birthday!




The next day, Brandi starts teaching Betty to walk.




Brandi got a promotion, which is good. Their funds are so low.




Brandi ends the week with starting to teach Betty to talk.
