[LenaLJ]

The Life State Dynasty of the Affini family

The long lost decendant of the Stars Lifestate Dynasty from the Sims 3 univers, Andrad longed to follow in his families footsteps, but he did not want to clone himself, even though he was an alien. He instead wanted a big family, more diverse than ever seen.
Together with his vampire wife Alique his dream would soon come true.

Notes:
This will not be a fullblown story but more a documentary.
To the rules i will add the following for myself:
I will have one of each lifestates atleast once.
All children must have painted a Masterpiece Portrait of them before moving out (Simply because i would love to have a gallery)
I strife to complete this with max speed possible.

[oshizu]

I'm always very happy to read about your challenges, LenaLJ!
And what an attractive founding couple!

You are a speed queen, so....go, go, go!
Looking forward to more.

First few days

A big family requires a big house. The house they could not yet afford but the ground they paid for. (Bridleton Bay is beautiful.)
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

A little Kitten joined the household too (A watcher must admit she wanted to play with Cats and Dogs )
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

The first aspirations for both Andrad and Alique was Soulmate. And with the last kiss they both finished it on Week 1 Sun 9:35 PM
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Both went wishing at the wishing well. Andrad wished for money to build a bigger house for his children.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Alique wished for a child. A special child. And her wish was approved.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Raquel was a little ghost child who died of laughter. An aspiring whiz kid, with a cat lovers heart.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Andrad and Alique celebrated their love that night. Soon they would get children with their own DNA.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

But until then they adobted to small babies. Eduardo and Nataly, fastly becomming their good friends.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

And they grow so fast, soon stumbling from the main house to the toodler playroom at the ground.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

While the small one thaught themselves Alique helped out Raquel with her goals, bonding as mother and daugther.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Angel grew up fast, and started collecting things around the grounds. ( A bug made her grow up to fast she was so cute as a kitten.)
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Family time was working on their goals.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Andrad was exhausted. But who would have guessed, only two days had gone by.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

You are so lucky, getting a ghost child on the first try! You're really moving fast. The toddlers and cat are darling.

[oshizu]

You finished Soulmate while I was blinking my eyes!
Andrad must be so happy now because his family is starting out very, very diverse!

Good luck with this challenge!

[PeregrineTook]

Oh my goodness!  Nataly is so cute!!
Looks like you are off to a great start on this.  Did you do anything deliberate to try to make it more likely the well would give you a ghost child, or was that just plain luck?

[LenaLJ]

In order to get the ghost child I waited with wishing for it until the well looked like below. That should higher the odds. And i will see if I can do it again next cycle.

Rest of the first week.

As the family grew the need for money grew too. So both Andrad and Alique started on their second aspiration, and painted everytime they had the chance.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

But most importantly they spent time with their children, helping them complete their skill requirements.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

So not long after Alique could bring both Nataly and Eduardo to the birthday cake.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

But it was only a brief moment in where the household did not have small children.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Alique gave birth to twin alien boys, Broderick and Chaim.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Nataly was a creative little soul, enjoying her natural bond with nature, that came from her fairy genetics.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Eduardo also had a very creative side, but this was much more musical oriented.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Broderick and Chaim really where identical twins.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Raquel was the only child attending school. As a Whiz kid she needed an A, which she got Friday.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

All while Nataly and Eduardo worked on their aspiration and having fun at home.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Also the twins worked hard and soon grew up. Only their haircolour and style dividing them.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

And as if there where not enough aliens in the household, another alien decided to beam up Alique.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

So the first week ended. The house growing as where the children. A nice and steady progress.

Such a cute little family!!  I must say, little Nataly is just as adorable as could be!
I rather loved how you caught the shot of Raquel with the tree line looking like a design across her shirt.  Very artsy!  Quite fitting given the painting aspiration her folks are doing  :=) 
Out of curiosity, since Raquel is a wishing well child, do both parents show up as relatives, or is she only connected to the wish maker?

[MarianT]

You're moving so fast, Lena! (But that's hardly a surprise. All your children are adorable. @PeregrineTook, I'm pretty sure that both parents show up as relatives of wishing well children, just as they do of adoptees.

Week 2:

As all 5 of the children now where at the same stage in their life Raquel as the oldest of them teaching them all that she knew.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

But mostly she focused on her own goals.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Eduardo trained both his Empathy and his logic at the same time.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

While Broderick and Chaim worked on their creativity instead.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Nataly was the first to grow up to a teenager.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

But the teenage stage was not easy if you had not prepared your social traits already as a child.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Eduardo's birthday soon followed. And well prepared he aged to a young adult soon after.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Raquel, Broderick and Chaim followed a few days after. Also well prepared they flew through their teenage years.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Working hard on her tasks Nataly prepared herself for her birthday. Which followed very soon.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Now all had to complete their tasks as young adults before they could move out. Even the friendly whishing well helped wherever he could.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

In the back of the garden Andrad and Alique build their museum with the portraits of their kids. They both complete the second aspiration, and managed to paint the 5 masterpieces.
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Another fast and hard week had passed. With no energy left Eduardo returned home after receving the last needed promotion at the "Entertainment Office"

[PeregrineTook]

Such a cute little family!  I think Nataly is my favorite.
I'm only vaguely familiar with the rules for this type of dynasty, but it appears to me you're doing quite well, though getting Nataly a negative trait by her YA birthday will definitely take some effort!  Can't say I've ever gotten a Sim the irresponsible trait, but I'm working on argumentative for one and its challenging!

[oshizu]

I'm really floored at the diversity of your children so far!
Congrats on the twin alien boys--they are precious.
All the children are growing like weeds!

So looking forward to what happens next!

[Shewolf13]

Oh wow, this is really cool!  I keep looking at the rules for the Life States dynasty this time around.  It really is Baby Boomer on steroids XD But I'm really enjoying how you are tackling it!  I sincerely love the masterpiece paintings as well.
