If you have links and stuff of Simming Along, please change it to my new site! I will continue my legacy road there! Hope to see you all loyal commenters/readers there!

On my last update I had to delete Justin Ternynck because he was all buggy and no one could interact with him. Jeffrey got home that day with is own problems, he got fired from his job in the slacker career track. Jessica (Justin’s twin sister) grew into a beautiful blonde hair dark blue eye toddler.

When I returned the next day, look who I saw laying on the sidewalk of the Ternynck Mansion. The one and only Justin! He just appeared there like a newborn baby. He didn’t have that stinky diaper with him because his whole needs/wants/age was reset. So I guess Justin Jessica aren’t really twins anymore. How sad is that…

Jane did not want to go to work that day. She wanted to stay home and care for her “newborn” son, Justin. And you know whenever a romance Sim wants something, they usually get it. She gathered up all her courage (which is not a lot considering she has the outgoing personality of 2) and called her boss. Fortunately luck was on her side that day, with a couple of fake coughs and secret giggling, her boss fell for her trick.

“Sure, whatever. Take a day off. You’re not that important anyways.” Her boss responded.

Talk about getting EVERYTHING she wants. Jane wasn’t too insulted by her boss’s comment. In fact, she couldn’t care less about him. Jane asked Jeffrey if they could go downtown that day to get some new clothes for the house. Jeffrey eagerly agreed, volunteering to stay at home and spend some quality time with his kids. Jane quickly persuaded him to come along.

They came home in a good mood.

This picture really scared me. Don’t ask why. It just does.

While changing Justin’s little diapers one day, Jeffrey realized how chubby he got. He has a beer belly! Jeffry wanted Jane to stay physically attracted to him so he made a promise to himself about working out at least once every three days. This was going to be a tough one, but he’s willing to do almost anything to be with Jane.

That night Jonathan decided to treat the family with something nice to eat because he was tired of the mac and cheese the family ate every night. He made sure everyone was occupied with something while he stood beside the oven for 20 minutes waiting for the lobster to cook just right. He took out the first lobster thermidor he’s ever made and couldn’t help feeling a bit proud of himself. He smiled to himself as he served the family with expensive lobster. “Perhaps I should’ve picked a career in culinary instead…”

Jonathan gathered everyone to the dinner table. Everyone was happy to see such a beautifully cooked lobster lay in front of their faces. Everyone except Adonica who was too busy enjoying her coffee in a tea cup. They still gathered together as a family and had a nice dinner with everyone there but Jessica and Justin.

Jane turned out to be a very nice mom. She never had any wants that has anything to do with her kids but she automatically goes and feeds them like any normal mom would. She doesn’t like to admit this to other people but she secretly adores the her kids. Any free time she gets she immediately takes care of her kids.

It’s going to be Jessica’s birthday that day to turn into a child. She got up in the morning to see grandma standing right in front of her crib, ready to let her out. She didn’t even have to cry! (I took this picture because I thought Jessica looked so cute in it!)

As soon as Jane delivered her set of twins, Jonathan and Adonica greeted the babies, each taking turn with one and then switching. Adonica and Jonathan promised to be the best grandparents to the Justin and Jessica. They wanted to train them, feed them, and become their best friends.

I just realized Justin, Jessica, Jane, and Jeffrey all have names starting with the “J”! Oh! And Jonathan does too! That’s so cool, I never realized that.

After the twins were put to bed by their parent, Adonica found peace upstairs. She achieved her goal of maxing out her skills. Even if she didn’t do this in her mid-life, she still achieved it. That has to count for something, right?

A view of the twins. Justin Ternynck is in the brown crib while jessica Ternynck is in the light yellow crib.

Sometimes grandpa Jonathan would hurry down the house and visit the twins who are usually sleeping soundly. He usually picks both of them up and cuddles them. He still couldn’t believe he has grandchildren! It’s been such a dream of his since the beginning. Jonathan admired their beautiful little faces. He just can’t get enough of their barbie blue eyes and blonde hair.

Jeffrey thought he was doing so well in his slacker job that he never thought he would get fired. If only he didn’t replace the art films his instructer did with the ones he did in college… Jeffrey doesn’t mind, though. Now he has more time to spend with his little darlings…

Then the full force hit him while he was getting ready to get the mail. And in the bathroom. And before he ate his chef salad. He felt disappointed in himself for losing his job that easily.

Now everytime he picks up his twins, his mind slips into that surreal scene in his boss’s office. Tears would swell up in his beautiful eyes and drop onto the nice carpet in the nursery. Jeffrey didn’t tell his family yet, just Jessica and Justin a million times.

McKale, on the other hand, was about to eat those chef salads Adonica made the night before and suddenly, the flies dominated the vegetables before him. Now he had to MAKE his own breakfast. Oh great! How nice! Thanks a lot, stupid flies… He quickly then apologized to the flies. After all, it was them who killed his great great great great cousin twice removed on his father’s side. He doesn’t want that to happen to him!

So, Jeffrey went along with the whole mac and cheese until a familiar beeping sounded. That thing has been going out so often lately they just don’t seem to notice it anymore. Thanks goodness a fireman came to put out the fire and Jeffrey ended up with burnt mac and cheese.

Jane didn’t want to wear that pizza delivery uniform all her life especially since she’s supposed to be a romance Sim. She decided to dig through the closet of the Ternynck Mansion to find a dress she liked and fits her personality. Then she went to Adonica and asked if she could borrow some make up of hers. She applied just enough to make herself look beautiful, even though she was already beautiful before.

Jeffrey seems to be pretty satisfied with his beautiful wife. Or maybe it’s because he wants to have a baby as soon as possible? (He’s a family Sim) He cuddled with her on the bed in his lame tracksuit hoping to hear that satisfying lullaby that he had anticipated for so long. Jane just wants to woohoo.

The happy couple in bed together after a worthwhile woohoo together. Jeffrey thought about his new baby while Jane doesn’t have a clue about the lullaby. The lullaby just doesn’t exist in a romance Sim’s mind…

Jane and Jeffrey got married under their own roof since Jane has a fear of throwing a party. Jeffrey and Jane changed into their most formal attire and got married the the most romantic spot in the house, their bedroom. Jeffrey complained about that but since Jane was so shy, he went along with it. They exchanged their vows nd put the ring on. They’re officially a married couple now!

Oh yeah, notice Jeffrey is wearing Jonathan’s old everyday outfit as his formal. I really need to get new formal clothing for those sims! Another thing I found bizarre was everytime Jane walks by Jeffrey he whistles. I’ve never had a Sim do that to their wife! Jonathan never did that to Adonica. Could this have something to do with a romance Sim? Has anyone else have that happen to them?

Oh and of course they kissed afterwards…

Adonica and Jonathan wants to get to know more about their daughter-in-law since she will be part of the Ternynck family for a while. Jonathan prepared toaster pastries for the family to enjoy on a nice morning and got the whole family together to chat. Jonathan and Adonica aren’t too happy about Jane being a romance Sim. They worry about their son being cheated on. (I’m making Jane stay loyal to her husband even if I’ll miss a bunch of oppertunities for major scoring…)

Jonathan, being the weird Sim that he is, asked Jane about her woohoo life with Jeffrey. Jane was ecstatic to discuss woohoo and their relationship soared. Later Jonathan told Adonica that if she wants to befriend Jane just talk to her about woohoo and you will be there in no time. He never expected the slap he got after he said that.

Seriously, romance Sims lack common sense, right after the “chat” Jane wants to flirt with Jonathan. How discusting is that! ;_;

Jane got bored one day and decided to play in the bathtub that he heard McKale talk so much about. She made sure she locked the bathroom doors before starting. After all, she doesn’t want any guy walking up on her while she does her little make believe fun.

I can’t believe how much those romance Sims love themself. Everytime I allow my Sims to go automous I would see McKale right by that mirror in the bathroom, admiring his looks. I guess confidence is part of the key to get people’s attraction.

The Ternynck family wanted to spend some time together that night. As much as McKale wanted to dance along with the new iPod the family purchased, his parents wanted him to play chess with Jonathan. They wanted him to start bringing home some A’s like his brother used to. McKale was pretty annoyed at the idea but he knows there’s no use arguing with his parents about something they’re so stubborn about.

McKale wanted to see if serving his family with spaghetti would change their mind so after he gained that one logic point he sneaked downstairs to cook a lovely dinner for the family. He did it extra quiet so no one would find out. He wanted it to be a surprise.

The next morning McKale planted his romance charm on their papergirl, Forgotthename. He lead her into the love tub outside the house and got in. She reluctantly followed, not quite sure she wants to get involved with the tangled life of a romance Sim. Once she got inside, though, she instantly felt a strange wave of romance going through her body. Almost like the love tub had some sort of spell in it.

Jeffrey and McKale did not get along with each other very well so they both swallowed their differences and agreed they need to at least get along. McKale wanted to play Punch You, Punch Me, the only game they both wanted to play. They never thought it would go so well! McKale and Jeffrey became instant friends.

That night McKale followed his brother’s footsteps and snuck out with Forgotthename. His brother had gave him some helpful advice after their endless game of Punch You, Punch Me. He told McKale to let his parents go to bed early and make sure they don’t wake up. Jeffrey also told him to be quiet when sneaking out, that would have to be the hardest part for McKale, he can’t seem to be silent these days…

Then when Forgotthename’s crappy car pulled up onto the driveway, Jeffrey instantly burst out laughing. “HAHA! MY GIRLFRIEND AT LEAST BROUGHT A DECENT CAR!!” Needless to say, their daily relationship dropped.

Fortunately for McKale, he came home without getting caught by the police. Adonica was working in the study on her new novel when McKale walked in to do his homework, which was still abandoned on the carpet. Adonica’s mother senses were tingling, she got up from her novel on llamas and groomed McKale. (I didn’t know they had this option! I thought it was so cute)

“Why do you smell like perfume?? Do you have colone on?? Where were you?” Adonica questioned.

McKale told her he was out with the telescope gaining logic skills. That sure got Adonica off his back.

Surprisingly McKale did not recieve his first kiss with Forgotthename last night at her house. Instead, the next morning he invited her over and after only a few hugging and flirting interactions between the young love birds, McKale leaned in for his first kiss. She accepted.

I took several that were really bad and a couple that were pretty good. I can’t decide on which one to use so I’m gonna post all of them. In each picture there will be McKale (2nd Gen. spare heir) sitting the the far left, Adonica (My legacy founder 1st Gen.) in the middle, Jeffrey (my 2nd Gen. Heir) in the far right, and poor Jonathan (1st Gen. married to Adonica) standing up behind the couch I placed right in front of the front door.

It was really hard to take a portrait. Far harder than I ever imagined. Those darn Sims just won’t stand still. They look at each other constantly and chat. That’s why most of the pictures have little relationship thing on top of someone.

Here are the other ones:

In this picture almost everyone is smiling ^_^ (Jonathan, why are you such a grump?)

Hm, I don’t know why I wanted to use this one but here it is. (Maybe it’s because Jonathan has that smile on his face?)

Sorry I didn’t post an update. I seriously have enough pictures that could give me three pages of updates everyday and last me to Friday!! I took so many frickin’ pictures! That’s probably because a lot of things happened. Anyways, I promise you guys an extra long and eventful update tomorrow. And it doesn’t matter how many comments I get ;P)

I keep wanting to post my next update but I can’t because I feel like not enough people read my last post… sometimes when I go to a Sims 2 blog and they have a bunch of updates I don’t read the previous ones and I just go to the newest posts because I don’t have enough time. Should I post tomorrow or should I wait until more people post comments? Sorry for my whinning, I just really wanna post what’s going on! ;_;

Today’s update will be three pages long! (I’ve never had one this long before!) So enjoy!

I took this picture because it looks like everyone was walking the same way and I thought it was funny (being easily amused and all). But they were acctually going to see a hot tub I just bought for the family…

Then the messed up nanny of ours came up and slapped Jeffrey (RIGHT AFTER HE GOT REJECTED!) It was as though she tought he cheated on her or something.

A family body building marathon. At first I only had Jeffrey do it since he was getting a bit chubby then since everyone was outdoors anyways, I just had all of them go for a dip. Adonica and Jonathan both wanted to earn a skill point so I thought it would be perfect. Too bad my poor Sims ended up getting cramed into a small pool with nowhere to swim…

After that Jonathan’s wants panel filled with wants to gain body skills. More and more body skills… I had him exercise for hours until he got buff. The first buff Sim in the Ternynck family. Just had to take this picture.

After Jonathan worked out I had him take a shower which is why he is the only one wearing casual clothing at lunch. I had all of them come enjoy a nice grilled cheese lunch that Jeffrey prepared (and nearly burn).

Since I had to move all of the Ternyncks out, I lost all of my portraits. (well, two) Since Jonathan has his creativity maxed out. I like how Adonica looks like she so upset behind the door where Jonathan can’t see her. I also like the golden ring on her finger! ^_^;;

McKale turned out to be a semi-cranky kid! (4 nice/grumpy points) Everytime I had Jeffrey go up to him to tickle him or talk to him, he always refuses. My patience soon ran out and I just had Jeffrey noogie his brother a lot of times. I thought it was hilarious!!

In the background you can see Jonathan painting Adonica.

P.S. I made a lot of progress in the legacy challenge today. McKale grew into a teen! (You can see his teen pictures in the family tree.) Oops, I said too much

My first test was on a couple I made a while ago called the Wells. It contains Sasha and Jeremy Wells. They are a newlywed couple I made. They haven’t had any babies yet so I tried that out on them.

And… they resulted in TWINS! Two baby boys! (Ryan and Aiden Wells)

Then I tried the same thing with Mary-Sue and Daniel Pleasant.

They also got twins!!! A boy and a girl. (Freddie and Leah Pleasant)

So… the twin patch does work! Well, unless my two pairs of twins were a rare coincidence… but whatever, I think it works! If you guys are interested just use the link I gave above.

Now I’m gonna go play my Legacy challenge! (Oh yeah, I’m uninstalling the hack so it won’t affect my legacy challenge.)
