Frio Family Tree

Intro

My name is Connor Frio. I've always lived with my older brother, Jared. He thinks that I am a baby, not capable of branching off on my own. He, however, doesn't have a girlfriend. His ex is Claire Ursine and she's not really all that pretty. Or nice, come to think of it.
But I'll show him. I know I'll get further than he ever will. His branch of the Frio family will die out whilst mine shall thrive, here in Sunset Valley, for 10 generations.

First of all, I need to find Mrs. Right. Well, Mrs Frio. But I'm in no state to find a lady, looking like I do. Time for a change!
I decide to get a new beard, something a bit more appealing than the big bushy thing I had.
And I also try out a new hairstyle, which involves lots of hair gel. I think it's pretty awesome, to be truthful.


Now I need a new wardrobe. Something cool.

My casual clothes:

Something for formal affairs (what is more formal than dressing as a sea captain?):

Nightwear:

Sportswear:

Swimwear:


Now that I have that out the way, its time to get myself a girl!
I scan my address book and find a Madison VanWatson. Yes, I vaguely remember Madison. We used to play with each other as kids.
I call the number. My palms are sweating, though I don't know why. Maybe it's just because I haven't seen her in years. What should I say? Do you want to come around? Do you want to meet up? Do you want to chat? Then I hear the chirpy voice of Madison saying "Consignment Store, how can I help you?"
I cancel the call and turn off my phone. Wow, that was more scary than I thought.

Later in the day, when my courage returns, I decide to visit the Consignment Store. That must be where Madison works.
We chat for a while, reminiscing about our childhood together.


It feels like I'm in a dream. This is still the same happy, bubbly girl that I knew as a boy. I know that she's the one that is meant for me.
I don't dive in straight away. I flirt a bit, tell a few naughty jokes. She responds well, flirting and joking back.


I move in for a hug and she doesn't pull away.


Then I go for it. It's not quite as romantic as I hoped. But it worked. I kissed her and she didn't pull away. She stayed in my arms, like she didn't want to let go.

I had all happened so fast. We agreed to be a proper couple.


Then when she was about to walk away, I fell on one knee, took her hand in mine and opened a tiny box that I'd hidden up my sleeve. Madison took the ring and stared at it, then at me. Oh no, I'd made an utter fool of myself. She was going to turn me away and spit in my face, I was sure of it. But no, her face lit up and she grinned from ear to ear.



"Yes, Connor. Yes, yes, yes!" she squealed, hugging me close.





So we were wed, right then, in the dingy Consignment Store. But we didn't care. We were together and that's all that mattered.

Well done on choosing a unique pair of founders. Connor looks great after his makeover and I bet Maddison will look equally stunning once you get her to a dresser.

I've always liked Connor minus that beard. He looks a lot better with the new one you gave him.

Good start! I hope that it works out!

[TheTripWasInfraGreen]

He's nothing without his beard. D:

Still, I'm quite glad to see a Decadynasty starring him. He's always been one of the few sims in Sunset Valley that I liked.

Chapter 1
The Frio brothers say farewell

Madison gathers her possessions, says goodbye to her housemates and we drive home. I lift her in the air and carry her to her new front door. Then, Jared charges out the door.
“Where are you off to?” I ask him.
“Nowhere.” He mumbles.
“Ok...” I say as he runs down the path towards the street.
Madison and I stare as he runs across the road to the house opposite. That’s Claire’s house.
He returns later looking as pale as a ghost.
“What’s up, Jared?” I ask, trying to sound concerned.
“Claire... I didn’t mean to... it was all just a big mistake... I’m such a fool!” he pants.
“What on earth are you talking about?”
“Baby! Her baby, Connor. My baby!” He shouts.
I try to put my hand on his shoulder but he pulls away.
“I can’t do it anymore Connor. I’ve got to go, far away from her.” He says.
“Where? Surely you can’t leave Sunset Valley?”
“No, I’ll just move house, go up North somewhere.”
“But Jared, we don’t have enough money to buy another house.” I tell him, because his idea may wreak my plans. I need money for my legacy.
“I know, Connor.” He looks over at Madison, who is watching the television. “I can’t ruin things for you and Madison.”
So Jared decided to just leave. No house, no money. I feel awful, but it’s him who wants to leave. If anything, I want him to stay.
But when Madison tells me some big news, the news I’ve been waiting for, I almost forget about Jared. This is more important now.

Chapter 2

The Baby’s coming!

I can’t believe it. I’m actually going to be a Dad!

Madison told me the other night. She thought I’d be angry. But I hug her close and tell her it’s all that I’d ever wanted.




I call the little bump a ‘nooboo’. Madison just laughs, but she often refers to the baby as 'nooboo'.





Everything seemed to go so fast. I read a book about pregnancies and it startled me a bit. My poor Maddy would have to go through all this pain while I just sat there. But it also reassured me a lot.



Madison started to read the book one evening.



But before she was halfway through, she started to go into labour.



I panicked while she puffed and panted and screamed and cried. I felt so helpless.



We were about to set off for the hospital when Madison was surrounded by sparkles. And in the blink of an eye, she was holding a baby girl.



“What shall we name the little darling, Connor?” Madison asked.
I looked out the window to stare at the waves lapping against the shore. Then I looked at my baby girl’s face and the name came to me.
“Coral, Maddy, I think she should be Coral.” I say.
We look down at her and she waves her little fists and lets out a wail.
“Coral it is, my darling.” Madison laughs and we hug each other close, holding baby Coral in our arms.
This was the family I wanted.

Congratulations on the arrival of baby Coral.

Chapter 3

A Makeover, a Nursery and a Baby Girl

Madison told me that I should start painting Jared’s old bedroom and turn it into a nursery for Coral. I decide to paint it pale blue, Sea Foam, Madison calls it. Little Coral certainly likes it.



She likes to sleep in her new swing all the time. Her crib is mainly unused because she’d sooner be swinging all day long.



Coral is certainly no problem for me or Madison. We take turns doing ‘Nooboo Shifts’. When I’m on my shift, I sit in the bedroom across from Coral’s nursery, typing new stories on my computer. I’ve published a couple; a novel named ‘Minty Goldbeard’ and a non-fiction about pregnancies. Madison helped me with that.

Madison prefers to work out on her new running machine. She often visited the gym after Coral was born but eventually decided to buy her own equipment because she thought it would be more convenient for me.



Madison decided to get a new hairstyle and some new clothes. She decided to go for a pink theme.
“But white is your favourite colour.” I say.
“I know but there’s only so much white one person can take!” she laughs. I agree with her. Pink suits her much better.

Her new hairstyle:



Her everyday:



Formal:



Sleepwear:



Athletic:



Sleepwear:



We both give Coral plenty of hugs and Madison loves taking her out for strolls in her buggy.




Her baby days flew by and it was time for her birthday. We invited a few friends and bought a cake. Madison helped Coral blow out her candles.




Her features became clearer when she aged. She’s got my hair and Madison’s eyes, a beautiful combination. We dressed her in her favourite colour, Sea Foam.






I love reading to Coral. I hope one day she grows up to love books the way I do.




In my eyes, she's the most beautiful little girl in the whole world.

Chapter 4

All fishies have Finns

Only a day after Coral’s birthday, our family had a new arrival. Meet our little boy, Finn.



I decided on a brighter blue (Aqua) for Finn’s bedroom, which is actually our second bathroom. It was hardly used so we decided it would make a nice nursery.



When our two little ones were sleeping, Madison and I cuddled up on the sofa.
“Maddy?”
“Yes?”
“What do you think about having some more kids?”
“How many?”
“Three? Four? Half a dozen?” I chuckle.
“Why not?” Madison says.
For a moment I think she’s joking.
“You want six kids?”
“Why not? Coral and Finn bring me so much joy, Connor. They’re my whole life and nothing makes me happier.” She says, gazing straight into my eyes.
“Whatever makes you happy makes me happy.” I say and I pull her close.

[RaiaDraconis]

Aww, the nooboos are cute!

[uponthewaters]

Yay, more nooboos! I love both Connor and Madison, so glad you're starting a dynasty with them. Little Coral is adorable, I can't wait to see Finn when he ages up!

Chapter 5

Fun with Coral!

Coral is such a little darling. Madison and I take turns teaching her the ways of life.

Walking:



Talking (her first word was book!):



And using the toilet:



Madison just loves our little darling.

Chapter 6
Nooboo fever

Finn has been settling in really well.



He’s got his own swing and loves swinging, like Coral.



Well, I suppose it’s not always happy times in the swing!



Madison is expecting again. Having two little ones seems like a tough enough challenge but having three of them is going to be even harder!



Jared, I noticed, hasn’t had any kids with his new girlfriend, who is an old housemate of Madison’s, Monica. I’ve heard rumours that Monica is a vampire. That surely can’t be true! How could anyone be a vampire? Vampires are just made-up creatures from storybooks. But she has been acting strangely lately...

Chapter 7
Finn’s Birthday

It was finally time for Finn’s birthday. We didn’t throw a party, because we’d been too tired. Finn didn’t mind that much.



He got Madison’s hair and my grey eyes. We styled him a cute little Mohawk and he looked really adorable.




He also needed some new clothes, which were all in his favourite colour, Aqua.





Time seems to be flying so fast!

[Snufflesxx]

Chapter 8
Prepare for trouble, make it double!

I was certainly in for a shock. Madison went into labour one night, when she had finished making a plate of Autumn salad in the kitchen. We were both familiar with the procedure by now so we just let nature do its thing.


 
Then in a whirl of sparkles, baby Aqua made an appearance.



But it turns out that Madison wasn’t finished. Soon, we had not one but two little girls. Aqua’s sister would be named Azure.
 
I’d already painted the new bedroom. We went for a sea theme, with lots of sea creatures on the walls. But we only had one crib, one potty, one swinging chair. So I had to go to the store, at 11 at night, to buy another crib, another potty and another swingy chair.
The room is split in two, one half for sleeping and the other for playing.




Neither Madison nor I have had nearly enough sleep recently. Every time we collapse into bed, one of them starts to wail. The twins’ seem to read each others’ thoughts because when one of them starts crying, the other starts straight away. Finn is a bit of a handful because we’re trying to teach him all of his skills. However, Coral causes us no problems. She’s always sleeping or playing with her bricks. She rarely cries or has accidents now. She’s a very mature toddler.
