ISBI: Generation 1 - Round 3

[thesterina]

Last round:
‣ Ravima rejected Callum's proposal to go steady again!
‣ Ravima became pregnant — she is ready to pop any second!


. . . . . . . . .






Ravima is up early! She's "nesting" — up and about preparing for the baby.




She brushes her teeth. Gotta make a good first impression for the baby, right?!




She relaxes with a nice, warm bubblebath. Can't be stinky, right?!




Callum: Hurry up nooboo! Daddy wants to me you!

. . . . . . . . .








Welcome to the world, lil' Aryan Prasad!
He has his mother's dark brown eyes and his father's brown hair.






Callum is elated to finally meet his baby boy!

. . . . . . . . .




Feed baby? Check ✔




Feed self? Also, check ✔




Stuffing her face with bits and pieces from the fridge wasn't cutting it anymore.
For the first time, Ravima prepared herself an actual meal!

. . . . . . . . .






Callum is wholly embracing parenthood!






Ravima, on the other hand, needs some more time to adjust.

. . . . . . . . .




Last round, Callum rolled the want to fall in love with Cara.
So, when she walked by — with her boyfriend, but whatever — I thought it might be fate!






They flirted a bit but Callum wasn't that interest in her (only 1 bolt between them).
He ended up canoodling on the couch with Ravima instead.

. . . . . . . . .






Ravima has not been feeling well...
Hmmmm... I wonder why?!






She's starting to put the "idiot" in ISBI challenge, haha!

. . . . . . . . .






It's Aryan's birthday! He ages up into an adorable toddler.
He is the perfect combination of his parents!






♡(.◜ω◝.)♡

. . . . . . . . .






It's safe to say that Ravima is pregnant again!






On top of the morning sickness and food poisoning, Ravima's apiration is taking a nosedive!
Her symptoms include nightmares and bouts of anxiety.



UNDERSTATEMENT OF THE YEAR!

. . . . . . . . .






I can officially add "changing diapers" to the list of things that Ravima does not do!




Poor Aryan! (｡-_-｡)

. . . . . . . . .






Exhaustion has become Ravima's life!
I found a thread of ISBI tips, and added a radio to the room to wake her up!




It worked... briefly.
She got up, went to the dining room and fell asleep in her food, again!

Ravima: 1pt.
Me: 0pt.

. . . . . . . . .




Callum has used up all of his PTO — time for him to get back to work!
He hired the services of a nanny, because there was NO WAY that I was gonna leave Aryan alone with Ravima.






A wise choice! Mama can barely take care of herself, let alone her toddler.

. . . . . . . . .




Parenting tip #1: Sleep when the child sleeps.




Parenting tip #2: Have a meltdown when the child throws a tantrum.






Ravima went into aspiration failure, and has been doing her best to cope... by any means necessary.

. . . . . . . . .





I discovered Aryan's OTH! He spent the evening with daddy, dancing away!






Callum is so wonderful with his son (*^ -^*)

. . . . . . . . .






Ravima dreams about the good ol' days, before her life turned upside down. I feel you, girl...

. . . . . . . . .






Welcome to the world, Anika Prasad!
She has her mother's dark brown eyes and black hair.




Callum is now a proud father to a beautiful baby girl, he couldn't be any happier!

. . . . . . . . .






The round ends with them working on baby #3! Ooof!


. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

That's all, folks!



• I hope they're done with babies, because it ain't easy having only one controllable sim.
• I considered having Callum cut ties with Ravima, but they get along well
— and with a new baby, I'm relunctant to end their "non-relationship".

Story Progression Mod — Update
Let's see what the 'test subjects' have been up to during this time!



Yara and Ilona welcomed their second son, Brett, and are expecting a third child!

. . . . . . . . .


Despite increasing the speed settings, nothing happened with the other test subjects.
I suspect it is because there aren't enough people in Feverfew — there's literally zero townies.

I created and downloaded some sims and made them townies, so maybe that'll spark things up!




Thanks to Maryann (Blaine), Marvelann (Bego), and Charmander Sims (Lewis), for the sims!


Thanks for reading!

Lol poor Ravima! Sims are so helpless without their watcher, dumber than guinea pigs lol.
Aryan is super cute! I definitely see resemblance between him and his alt universe half sibling in my game, can’t wait to get to posting their next round so you can see! I’m excited to see what Anika looks like!

[thesterina]

It is truly fascinating and hilarious to see what sims do or don't do without the intervention of their watcher!
He is so cute, isn't he?! Can't wait to see alt-universe half-sibling. It's been a busy week for me, and I can't wait to sit down and catch up on all your posts!ヽ(‘ ∇‘ )ノ

[kayleigh83]

Yay! She's in there, and it's a heck of week for them haha!

[deedee_sims]

I was worried for Ravima, the food poisoning + pregnancy combo wasn't kind to her this round.
Aryan is adorable! *pinches cheeks*

[thesterina]

I feel like I jinxed myself, haha. Things were going so smoothly and then, Ravima's life started falling apart quickly. It's been kind of hard to get her back to her normal self, but that's all part of the challenge, isn't it!

Agreed! He is too adorable!!

[simsterlyrock]

Poor Ravima did not have a great week...hopefully next week will go better! Especially if she doesn't get pregnant again and is able to actually catch up on sleep in bed instead of her food. 😂

[thesterina]

I feel like Ravima's "inner idiot" is starting to show its head. Even if life was smooth sailing for her, I doubt that she would be "smart" enough to sleep in her bed instead of her food, hahaha. Bad habits are hard to break... even for sims, hehe.

Another lovely installment! Not for Ramina of course but I love the drama an ISBI causes! 😈
Here's hoping those gorgeous townies spice things up! I do love how you've incorporated the clay hair into ts2's aesthetic. 👁️

[ddeathflower]

This was from me BTW, I forgot to log in 😅

[thesterina]

Hey ddeathflower <3

Thank you again! I recently discovered 4t2 clay hairs and became obsessed with them! They blend very well with ts2 aesthetics indeed, and I feel like the hairs are maxis but better!
