CHAPTER THIRTY-THREEGotta work through this backlog...
I forgot to mention what Elisabeth's traits were in the last chapter! She's
Perceptive and a

Sure!

Okay, now you all know. Tatiana has an extra trait because she made it to the top of the Rebel social group, and getting to level eight means you can pick another trait. How nice.
Since Victoria became immortal, everything is just flying right on by. The next day was baby Elisabeth's toddler birthday already! Great-grandmother Beatrix carried her to her cake.
She looks like Tatiana! Hooray, the gorgeous genetics live on!
She has Tatiana's eyes, too! I finally figured out that Tatiana got her eyes from Christopher, so his eyes will keep going!
Everyday:
Formal:
Sleepwear:
I also took some time to build a small play area outside, between the pond and hot tub. It all looks quite nice.
Mommy Tatiana immediately began potty-training her little girl. Elisabeth skills up extremely quickly since she's so smart.
Victoria's days as an immortal are now mainly spent in the garden and making daily trips to the consignment store for gems and books. I finally found a harvester and decided to let her try it, though I think just normally harvesting works a lot faster...
Whenever Elisabeth isn't playing or learning, she's usually stashed away in her swing. She's almost always napping in it, to the point I think she might eventually become a
Heavy Sleeper!
Whenever Brent gets home from work, he takes Elisabeth out and begins to teach her how to talk.
She was rather disinterested in most things he had to say.
Of course, until he started telling her about stars. Then she was happy. After all of that, she was able to talk on her own!
Tatiana very rarely ever sleeps in her crib when it's bedtime. She's usually not that tired when everyone else goes to bed, so keeping her in the baby swing prevents any middle-of-the-night tantrums. The floor hygeinator underneath also takes care of any late night diaper accidents.
The next morning, Tatiana got up extra early so that she could teach Elisabeth how to walk. Like all of her other skills, walking was a piece of cake.
This was the point where is discovered custom content and went on a downloading spree. I got a bunch of cars that I've always wanted but could never have in Sims, including this Volkswagon Beetle from 2003 that I got for Brent. This is the exact same car that I want, though if the 1973 Volkswagon Beetle wasn't such a death trap I'd jump at it.
Elisabeth loves her peg box, but she also loves the xylophone that everyone else gets to play with. As soon as she ages up the peg box is getting sold.
I've learned that to best avoid making everyone sick with the floor hygeinator, switch the scents around every so often. It gives a greater range of moodlets and prevents illness!
I added a nightlight to the main room, dimmed it down, and changed the color of the light so that whenever Elisabeth wakes up in the middle of the night she isn't frightened by the dark.
Hey, look who we haven't seen in a while! Christopher decided to spend some bonding time with his granddaughter and play with the peg box together. He's going to be dying soon, so I want him to have as much time with his family as he can.
Here they are reading logic books at the library!
There are many things in life that Elisabeth absolutely adores. First, her mummy bear that Tatiana brought home from Egypt...
...and second, her mommy!
They're best friends with each other. That makes two for Tatiana!
