Gameplay Settings

Meet the Kids
A brief description of each of Yae's children, chronologically listed by birth order.
Note: Although I'm also randomizing childhood and teen aspirations, early age-ups require better grades not completed aspirations.
         As a result, I usually ignore the kids' aspirations unless a child has nothing else to do over the weekend.
         Since aspirations don't matter in this challenge, I've saved myself the time and bother of recording all the children's aspirations.
Group 1: Babies 1-20
Group 2: Babies 21-40
Group 3: Babies 41-60
Group 4: Babies 61-81 
Group 5: Babes 82-100

1. Apparently, My House Is Pregnant

Week 1, Sunday
Yae: Hey there, don't just walk by. Don't you remember me?
I'm Yae Yumeno, one of the Gen8 twins of the Yumeno Big Dream Dynasty.

Sit down with me while I wait for a phone call from my Watcher.
She's going to let me know what my next project will be.


She's sent my instructions by snail mail.
Can I show you my new crib until the mail delivery arrives?


I'll be living on 5 Cobblebottom Street here in Finchwick.
Not sure how long I'll be living here, but I'll probably stay at least a month.
There's always a lot of folks around in Finchwick, so I can meet lots of villagers.


Here's a bird's eye view of my cozy, little cottage.
Watcher originally built me a 64-tile Tiny House, then downsized it to a 32-tile Micro House.

See those lightbulb symbols in the three areas marked by concrete flooring?
When I'm ready to upgrade, I'll make rooms out of those areas.
For that, I'll first need more money and a medium-sized garden!


Yae (reading the letter):  Hmmm, I need to give birth to and raise 100 babies…
How hard can that be in a Tiny House? I guess I'll soon find out.

So Watcher's been in contact about me with Sage Simeon Silversweater?
What about getting pregnant? What about earning income?
Well, I guess I should go see what Sage Simeon has to tell me.


Sage Simeon: I've been looking forward to meeting you, Yae.
Yae: The pleasure is mutual. But why did Watcher send me to you?

Simeon: Sadly, you cannot be a spellcaster for your current challenge.
Yae: Oh no! I love being a spellcaster!
Simeon: Don't we all? But if you become a human, you can complete this challenge faster.
Every occult child you raise and move out will count as two.
Yae (to herself): Huh, Sage Simeon dislikes pink?


Simeon: Are you ready to receive the Rite of Dissolution, my dear?
Yae:  I will sorely miss being a spellcaster but, please, go ahead.
The Occult Incentive for a human Matriarch could shave weeks off the challenge's total time.


Simeon: Actually, I can think of a way you might still live in a magical household.
Yae: Uh huh, I bet you can! Shall we continue this conversation at my place?


Back in Finchwick, it doesn't take long to get Simeon in the mood.
Of course, at that very instant, the familiar music starts playing.


That's right, it's the Welcome Wagon!
And who do I see heading my way, bearing fruitcake?
Why it's Simon Scott, my next-door neighbor and baby-daddy-in-waiting!


I take a home pregnancy test right away and guess what?
Apparently, my house is pregnant!
All kidding aside, I am eating for two! Cross your fingers for baby casters!


After getting a First Kiss from my neighbor Simon, I go night-fishing with two new friends.
Derek McMillan from Old New Henford and Windenburg's Jacques Villareal are both elders.
I also invite along Victor Feng because he has such fantastic genes.

C'mon, dragonfruit! I plan to spend tomorrow planting my garden and making some money.. 



Tuesday
Today I'm celebrating Gnomefest.
Except for appeasing the gnomes, though, I spend the day exactly like the day before.
Tending the garden, cooking meals, and fishing for Dragonfruit at Magnolia Promenade.
I also visit Desert Bloom Park briefly to check dig sites and look for frogs.



Wednesday
This morning, I finally have enough merchandise to hold a yard sale!
By the time I go into labor, I've made over $4k.  I really need to start painting or something.
My next-door neighbor's been hanging around, but it's not his turn yet!


And here are my lovely twins.
Akemi is a spellcaster, whereas Brook is a human sim.


Jacques: You don't have a double bed?
Yae: Even if the house were large enough to fit a double bed, I can't afford one!



Thursday
Last night, I spent a few hours at the library to read up on Handiness and Painting.
Today, I buy a Digitalistic Sketchpad and give it a high-performance upgrade.

I'm ready to get serious about providing for my family.
First, I craft 15 paintings for Mansion Baron then sell 3 of them for Painter Extraordinaire.



Friday
The Street Gallery and vendor table are so handy.
Whenever my children need me, I simply end my yard sale and take care of their needs.
 
Thursday evening and this morning, I use The Street Gallery to sell my remaining paintings.
By 2 pm, I've earned $28,000 and 5 levels of Charisma from giving sales pitches.


The arrival of my toddlers' birthday notices takes me by surprise this afternoon.
I bet Simeon's son Brook will grow up to be a heartthrob.
Maybe I'll persuade him to help me grow a Big Happy Family!


As soon as the twins are off to sleep, I cook up a storm.
In addition to meals, I also bake two cakes for when the twins age up.
I'll put the food in a storage box in family inventory so they won't spoil.



Saturday
In the early evening, I invite over Ian Moody before leaving for the hospital.
Then, I give birth to twin boys: Charles and Denzel Villareal.

Yae: So, what type of sim do you find attractive?
Ian: I'm not into women.


Yae: That's okay.  I'm not into elders, but I'm starting out with elderly baby daddies.
Does that make us even?




Progress: End of Week 1
Offspring moved out: 0/100
*Toddlers: Akemi (#1-2) and Brook (#3) Silversweater
*Nooboos: Charles (#4) and Denzel (#5) Villareal
*Matriarch: Pregnant (1st trimester)

Notes
*Trait randomization: I wanted to use Pinstar's RTG (Random Trait Generator).
  I like the kids to have traits somewhat influenced by their parents.
  But Pinstar's RTG hasn't been updated since Get Famous, so I'll be using James Turner's RTG instead.

*Attractiveness System: The Wonderful Whims mod lets my sim ask other sims, as a romantic social, about their attractiveness preferences.
  I'm not sure it's the right mod for this challenge, since Yae is currently streamrolling through her simverse's population of elderly males.

Gameplay Settings

Challenge Rules
*Rule set: I will be following the rules for the 100 Baby Challenge by Snarky Witch.
*Challenge mode: Occult Incentive; the Matriarch must be a human sim.
  Every occult offspring moved out counts as 2 children.
  This incentive is lost whenever a subsequent Matriarch is herself an occult sim.
*Spreadsheet: To track my challenge progress, I'll be using this spreadsheet.

Yae's 100 Babies: 2.  Nooboos Are So Needy!

Week 2, Sunday (Spring)
My twins with Simeon the Sage became children this evening.
They'll have just enough time to finish their homework and a school project before tomorrow.

Last night, I asked my three baby daddies (Simeon, Jacques, and Ian) to be just friends.
It takes Simeon one whole day before he marries Katrina Caliente.  That himbo!



Monday
It wasn't easy finding Dr. Jing Fen, professor of art history at Britechester.
He's an evil, mean elder who hates children, but who cares?

I think he's gorgeous and, evidently, the feeling is mutual.
Most sims retire when they become elders.  Jing Fen must be tenured?


I bring Jen home with me so I can keep an eye on my twin nooboos.
Jing's preference for women who wear glasses sounded rather intellectual.
Not sure about the body piercings, though.
Regardless, I find him very attractive!


Akemi and Brook bring home Bs from their first day of grade school.
At this rate, they'll be teenagers tomorrow!


Ian stops by when I'm busy caring for the Villareal twins.
His partner, Derek McMillan, passed away yesterday so he must be hurting.
Though Jing is still visiting, I decide to run after Ian and chat a bit..


Yae: Ian, would you like to feel your baby?
Ian: My baby! Our baby!  Yae, this is so wonderful!
Derek is gone and I'll be gone, too, but I'm leaving behind a part of me with you.
Yae: *sniffle, sniffle


Receiving word that it's the Villareal boys' birthday, I rush home to age them up.
They don't look much like their father Jacques, do they?

Once I've read this second book to you two, you're on your own!
I wonder if they'll look more like Jacques when they're older.



Tuesday
I feel a bit guilty having Akemi and Brook age up without completing a single aspiration.
But they blow out their candles as soon as they bring home their A's!


Here's a shot of Simeon with our teenager twins. Akemi and I could be sisters!
I'm thinking of dressing all my sons after the style of their father.  Good idea or bad idea?


Charles (left) and Denzel (right) look unhappy about my neglect, but I'm off the hospital.
Ian Moody passed away this afternoon. I'm sorry he'll never get to meet his twins.
I have boy/girl twins, who I've named Ellis and Faith Moody.


No rest for the wicked! I hope Dr. Fen will give me a son who's a mini-Jing!
Now that I'm pregnant, I send Jing on his way because Tuesday is Alien Night!  Ahem.
Everyone except the nooboos comes with me to the Shrieking Llama Bar in Windenburg.

Watcher's note: At this point, I removed the Wonderful Whims mod.
It didn't seem that essential to a challenge where Yae needs to hook up with everybody.


Wednesday
Once the kids leave for school, I invite over Geoff Kiser who I met last night at the bar.
It's hard to see, but Geoff emits a soft pink glow due to feeling Very Flirty.
Who will be my next baby daddy?
The elderly (but active) George Cahill or exotic Geoff Kiser?


Brook has a new best friend, Eva Capricciosa of Windenburg.
Yes, there's an age gap between them today.
But Brook has every intention of closing that gap tomorrow.


By evening, Charles and Denzel have aged up to children.
They spend the evening on schoolwork, while mourning the passing of their father, Jacques.



Thursday
Both Akemi and Brook earn A's at high school this afternoon.
But only Brook ages up to a young adult.
He invites over Eva immediately and pours on the charm.


He makes all the right romantic moves, including trying for baby!
Once Brook ties the knot with Eva, he moves out.
One child moved out and 99 more to go!


I've decided to keep Akemi in the house as my helper.
We travel to the Magical HQ this evening so Akemi can learn from the sages.
She's surprised to learn that her father Simeon is the Sage of Practical Magic.



Friday
Each day is so filled with events!
Yesterday evening, Ellis and Faith aged up to toddlers.
Ellis reminds so much of his father, Ian Moody, it brings tears to my eyes.


Charles and Denzel bring home A's from grade school and age up.
They are not as handsome as their father, unfortunately.
My genes don't combine well with Jacques, it seems.


That night, I give birth to twin boys, named Gen and Hung.
Jing Fen passed away the night before, however, so they will never meet their father.
I'm not influencing gender and, so far, I've given birth to six boys but only two girls.
Why have I yet to have twin girls? 



Saturday
This week, I've managed to buy both the Never Weary and Always Full traits.
Today, Akemi ages up into a Responsible, Good Mannered, and Compassionate young adult.
Thanks to completing Super Parent, I can now buy a Money Tree!

I always sell my masterpiece paintings on Plopsy, so Denzel tries selling my non-masterpiece works on The Street Gallery.
After selling only two in four hours, he gives up.


Denzel has better luck with the Wishing Well, which boosts his high school grade to an A.
I immediately move him out so I can invite over Geoff Kiser to (surprise!) try for baby.

As for Denzel, I've moved him in with my next baby daddy, George Cahill.
Cross your fingers for alien-hybrid twins with Geoff!


I enter an excellent-quality Lily to the Finchwick Garden Fair and win first place.
It seem bribing the Mayor to judge in my favor actually worked.
But I didn't receive a Golden Egg as a prize.
I mean, that's the main reason I started this challenge in Finchwick! Oh well.


Charles is waiting until Monday to earn his A grade and move out.
He's been a terrific help!  First, he gives the Self-Cleaning upgrade to all toilets and showers.
Next, he gives double upgrades to all the bunk beds.  Isn't he marvelous?



Sunday
Charles needs to stay busy so his younger siblings can't ask him for advice.
Since I've started working on Nerd Brain, I have Charles start building me a rocket ship.
You know I'll stash that rocket ship in family inventory whenever I'm not using it!

As for Akemi, she's almost an Adept spellcaster already! She's joined the Scientist career, too!




Progress: End of Week 2
*Total Score: 2/100
*Moved out this week: Brook Silversweater (#3), Denzel Villareal (#5)
*Current Household:
  Matriarch: Yae is 20 days to the Adult stage and pregnant by Geoff Kiser
  YA: Akemi Silversweater (#1 and 2)
  Teen: Charles Villareal (#4)
  Children: Ellis and Faith Moody (#6 and 7)
  Nooboos: Gen and Hung Fen (#8 and 9)

Notes
YA kids and careers: According to Snarky Witch (Ashleigh) who created this challenge:
"If you really want to meet aliens on Sixam, you could keep a YA child in the house long enough to join the scientist career and invent the wormhole,
 then have your matriarch use the wormhole. There's no rules against her using career objects, she just can't join the careers and unlock them herself."

Moodlet solvers: I'd like to have a stockpile of these potions for emergency use.
Thanks to holidays, each kid will leave behind at least one before moving out.
Akemi's joined the Scientist career long enough to invent a cloning machine or two.

Rocket ship glitch: I didn't realize until later that Charles could start building a rocket ship.
Has the bug been fixed that prevented the active household from building one once the first Finchwick Fair starts?

Alien hybrids: Alien baby daddies seem like the way to go!
With a Mermaid, Spellcaster, or Vampire father, Yae has a 50/50 chance of giving birth to an occult child.
With an Alien father, however, Yae has a 100% chance of giving birth to an Alien Hybrid child.
Besides attending all Alien Night events, Yae might want to fully upgrade her rocket ship.

Yae's 100 Babies: 3.  My Alien Hybrids Are Broken

Week 3, Sunday (Spring)
Yae:  Akemi's an Adept spellcaster now, but she's taking a break from magic this evening.
She needs to have eight breakthroughs before she starts her Scientist career tomorrow!

Akemi: Would it be so hard to spare me some privacy, please?


After Gen and Hung Fen age up to toddlers tonight, a visitor comes a-knocking!
It's Caleb Vatore!  I'd been hoping to meet him, but vampires are immortal.
So there's no, you know, rush to romance him or Vlad.  Still…


Do you want to be my boyfriend, Caleb?  Of course, you do!
I've even considered moving to Forgotten Hollow for a vampire-only phase.
But there's probably not enough of you around to warrant the effort of moving.

If you'll excuse me, Caleb, I have some boys who need me more than you do.


Gentle readers, I'm sorry if you're bored with this photo format.
But I always read to my toddlers in case they later roll the Whiz Kid aspiration.
Also, you get a good look at both twins at once. (Plus, a two-image collage takes more time...)
Added bonus: it's easy to photograph twins when they're listening to a story.



Monday
These days, I'm too busy to tend the garden myself so I hire a professional gardener on weekdays.
All I do is harvest and fertilize the crops.  Today, Ellis helps out with the task of harvesting.
He's such a good boy!


Simeon, you're my very first baby daddy and I still love you (even though you married Katrina).
But, dude, stop chatting me up to your buddies!
I have my own exacting criteria for selecting baby daddies, okay?
(Simeon phones at least once a week with this message.)


After school, Charles Villareal is ready to move out.
With those looks, Charles and Denzel really shouldn't be breeding.
But he volunteers to help out with my Big Happy Family, so I approve.


For now, he temporarily moves in with his brother and George Cahill in StrangerVille.
This move, of course, costs me nothing at all.
Eventually, the brothers should move into the mansion of their father, Jacques.
And speaking of George…


Yae: So, George, I was hoping that you'd be my next baby daddy.
George: I'd be honored, Yae. But tell me: why are Jacques Villareal's sons living with me?
Yae: They're only there to look after you until your own child can move in with you.
George: My child?
Yae: Well yes, of course.  Your child with me.  How do you like the sound of that?



Tuesday
Gen and Hung (Jing Fen's sons) aged up to children this morning.
Gen's hair had been red as a toddler but turned black when he aged up.
I'm so glad since he resembles his father now.


Ellis and Faith age up as soon as they return from school.
Both teens share their father's cheeks.
Don't you love how much Ellis resembles his father Ian?


In the early evening, I give birth to boy/girl twins.
They look like ordinary human babies, don't they?
But their father is a "known alien," so they should be Alien Hybrids.
I can't wait to see what they look like as toddlers!



Wednesday
After Ellis and Faith age up to young adults, I make an important decision.
We only have a little over $250,000, but I give them $120,000 in moving expenses.
Why? Because I want them to live where their father formerly lived with Derek McMillan.

I'm going to need a better income-generating scheme if I want to do right by all my kids!


As soon as Ellis and Faith move out, I naturally invite over my next baby daddy, George Cahill.


Akemi earns her Level 5 Scientist promotion tonight.
She invents cloning machines and a satellite dish, then quits that job.



Thursday
Gen and Hung blow out their candles and become teens this afternoon.
Their facial hair is a bit too mature for teens but will suit them once they're young adults.
Also, how odd that Hung's light brown hair has turned black.


Iago and Jayla also age up today. That's Akemi, not me, reading to them.
Um, shouldn't Alien Hybrid children share the skin color of the parent who is 100% alien?
Watcher checks Iago and Jayla's "Details Log" in MCCC and their Occult Type is Alien Hybrid.
Hmmmmmm…what is going on?



Friday
Today is Love Day, but I add a few traditions that the toddlers can enjoy.
Fun for the whole family!


After school, Gen and Hung age up to young adults.
I don't go into labor until tomorrow evening.
So Gen and Hung offer to stick around until tomorrow afternoon to help with the toddlers.
I really appreciate a break from childcare and the toddlers love all the attention!



Saturday
Iago and Jayla become Happy Toddlers in the morning.
It's time for Gen and Hung to move out so Iago and Jayla won't be asking them for advice.
As a parting gesture, they tend the garden.  What darlings!


Jing Fen's former home at Pier Perfection is too small for my boys.
I give them $25,000 to move into the Journey's End with the Kanananui family.
Then, the Kanananuis use that $25,000 to move into Pier Perfection.
The perfect solution!


I like to have my ducks--uh, baby daddies--lined up in a row beforehand.
I'm scheduling Victor Feng for next week.
Oh, look!  There's that alien Dante Arnold, who I met at Alien Night!

Haven't you heard the news?  Alien baby daddies are false friends!
Sorry, Victor, but I've gotta skedaddle!


Thanks to Victor Feng and Tomax Collette, I complete my Serial Romantic aspiration.
Tomax and I end the third gold-medal date just as I go into labor.

I dash to the hospital where I give birth to Karen and Lonnie Cahill.
When I return home, Tomax is waiting so we can try for baby.  Busy, busy, busy.


Akemi, my firstborn child, has been so incredibly helpful!
With her maxed Cooking, Painting, and Parenting, she'll be sorely missed when she moves out.
But she's 17 days away from her Adult birthday.
I must try and find her replacement before then.

And how odd that my daughter is now older than I am.



Progress: End of Week 3
*Total Score: 7/100
*Moved out this week (plus 5):
  - Tue: Charles Villareal (#4)
  - Wed: Ellis & Faith Moody (#6 & 7)
  - Fri: Gen & Hung Fen (#8 & 9)

*Current Household:
  Matriarch: Yae is 19 days to the Adult stage and pregnant by Tomax Collette
  YA: Akemi Silversweater (#1/2)
  Children: Iago and Jayla Kiser (#10 and 11)
  Nooboos: Karen and Lonnie Cahill (#12 and 13)
 
Notes
*Alien hybrids: My game won't produce alien hybrid kids, except in Manage Households/CAS.
  For this to work, the alien parent must live in the same household.
  There's a thread about this bug on EA Answers HQ, click here.

*Troubleshooting alien hybrids: I play-tested this for hours today.
  I had male alien/female human parents give birth under the following conditions:
  - With both my custom content and MCCC;
  - With my custom content but without MCCC.
  - With neither my custom content nor MCCC.
  My alien hybrid kids lack the alien parent's skin color, eyes, and tinny voice.
  They look just like human sims, but MCCC gives their "Occult Type" as Alien Hybrid. *sighs

*Occult Incentive: This counts each occult child moved out as two children.
  Since my alien hybrid kids don't look the part, I will count them as human kids.

*Recruiting Baby Daddies!: Got a male sim you'd like to see combine genes with Yae?
  Just send me a PM on the forum, then upload your sim to the Gallery with the hashtag #Yae100Babies
  Or if you already have a feasible sim on the Gallery, PM their name and I'll look for them.

4.  Third Time's Not Always Charmed


Week 4, Sunday (Spring)
We spend the day at Desert Bloom Park for a change.
Jayla brings a laptop to practice typing and Akemi does whatever she pleases.
Iago and I are working together to catch 20 unique types of fish.


Iago: When we move out, will we go live with our dad?
Yae: I've been thinking about that a lot lately.
If you live with him, he'll never age, which isn't a good thing for me.
I need our simverse to constantly generate new baby daddies, so maybe you'll be neighbors instead.


Akemi has reached a dead end for learning new potion recipes.
No matter how much she experiments, she hasn't learned a new potion all day.
We'll all visit the Magical HQ tomorrow evening.



Monday
Akemi: I appreciate being taught the Ultimate Practical Magic spell.
But is Simeon the Sage in denial about being my father?
He treats me like I'm just another run-of-the-mill seeker of magic recipes!


Yae: I invite Marcus Flex to come with me to the Magical HQ.
He has an Active Sim, though.
Maybe I'll squeeze in another elderly daddy between Victor and Marcs.


We return home just in time to receive the birthday notices of the Cahill twins.
What cute toddlers!



Tuesday
Among our simverse's Played households, only my household ages automatically.
Since my children's households don't age, my grandkids are eternal nooboos.
That's why we visit the home of Brook Silversweater and Charles Villareal this afternoon.
They each have twins, which Akemi and I gradually age up to grade-school children.


The Cahill twins leave their toddler days behind in record time!
Akemi and I are glad that they aged up early enough to finish their school projects themselves.
A break from childcare is much appreciated, kiddos!
Or maybe ask Iago and Jayla for help?


I give birth to Tomax's girl twins tonight. I've named them Mona and Nadine.
If only I'd remembered to sell off the Cahill twin's bassinets!
If the hospital had provided the bassinets, I'd have immediately known their life state.
I won't be making that mistake again!



Wednesday
Iago and Jayla Kiser age up and move out today after school.
They've moved in with their father, Geoff Kiser, who lives at Vista Quarry in Oasis Springs.

Watcher's note: I've made them an Unplayed household so the three of them will age.


Yae: Oh, Victor!  I invited you over as soon as I possibly could.
I hadn't realized you'd become an elder!
Victor: It's fine. Just promise me that my children will live in a Played household.
Yae: Yes, of course!  I have high hopes for our children, Victor!
They will be moving into your current apartment when they're ready.


Dominic Fyres: Thanks for choosing me, Yae!  I wasn't sure I'd make the cut.
Yae: I'd always planned to include you in my project, dear Dominic.
You have lovely daughters!



Thursday
The Cahill twins celebrate their teen birthday this afternoon.
They've worked hard on their grades.  What troopers!


My son Ellis Moody dropped by today with a gift because I'm "such a good neighbor."
It's just a postcard of Twinbrook.
I have such a soft spot for Ian Moody and his children. I don't even know why.


The Collette twins age up to toddlers this evening and guess what?
They're both spellcasters!
Akemi will be an adult in 12 days, so it seems early to replace her with a Collette caster.
I'll think on this more next week.



Friday
When the Cahill twins age up to young adult, I keep Karen back to help with the toddlers.
Due to Lonnie's new Goofball trait, though, I move him out right away.


By 10 pm, Nadine has been a child for an hour but Mona's still a toddler.
This is my fault for having Karen be Mona's sole caregiver.
I have the Matriarch trait, so I should be teaching the more time-consuming skills.
Since I'm pregnant, I can't do Play socials.  That's what Karen should have focused on.

If today had been Sunday or a different weekday, Nadine would start school tomorrow, but not Mona.
I need to pay more attention to timing in the future!



Saturday
Mona and Nadine have nothing to do this weekend except one school project each.
I've encouraged them to join Scouts.


As soon as the fair starts, I ask Akemi to check what's being sold at the Finchwick shops.
Finally, after four weeks, we find a Golden Treat.
Hmmmm, we would need a cow to make use of that. 
Perhaps it's time we moved to a larger lot?


As usual, I go to the hospital alone to give birth.
I have boy/girl twins, whom I name Orfeu and Pearl Feng.


Inviting Dominic Fyres over, I try for baby with him twice but without success.
What is the problem?


After the third try, Dominic keels over and dies.
But I'm still not pregnant, so I plead with the Grim Reaper spare Dominic's life.
The Grim Reaper agrees to revive Dominic in exchange for a Death Flower.


He lives!


We try once more in a tent.
My thought is that he'll have better luck lying down rather than standing.
I have a good feeling about this time!


After confirming that I'm eating for two, I ask Dominic to be just friends.
Then, I send him on his way.  I hope he makes it home alright.

You know, I've tried for baby with nine baby daddies so far: 6 elders and 3 adults.
The other elders all seemed downright perky.  Should I avoid elders, unless they're Active sims?

5. 27 Babies Down and 73 to Go!


Week 5, Sunday (1st week of Summer)
Yae: Do you remember that I bought a Golden Treat from Agnes yesterday?
Well, early this morning, we bought this cow.
I nearly moved to a larger lot just to make room for the cow.
But I manage to temporarily squeeze in the cow and its shed.


This is the second time I've milked our cow.
Each time, I receive 6 bottles of regular milk and 2 of Golden Honey Milk.


Golden Pulse for the win.


Can you spot Mona leaving for her Scouts meeting?
Our lot is ridiculously crowded with the cow shed on it.
I sell the cow and put the shed in storage while the twins are at scouts.


In the evening, both Mona and Nadine become Llamacorn Scouts.
They're the very first scouts among my children so far.
In fact, I'd wanted the Scouting Aptitude trait for Nadine.
Until yesterday, I'd planned to keep Nadine as my helper.



Monday
Today's the day I work on maxing Vampire Lore.
I might want to cure future baby daddies of their vampirism.
Not Vlad or Caleb, of course, but maybe I could cure other vampires of their immortal vampirism.
I also worry about my future vampire children, running around outdoors without sunlight resistance.


Mona (left) got lucky with the Wishing Well this weekend.
She started grade school with B, and brings home an A today and ages up to a teen.
Nadine will be a day behind.  Not a problem.


Thanks to sharing my white hair, Victor's twins don't look much like him yet.
They sure are cute, though!


Akemi's adult birthday is just eight days away.
I was pretty set on keeping Nadine Collette as my next helper.
But then I met this warlock, named Naoki Takahashi.
Is it shallow of me to want his child as my helper instead?  Probably.



Tuesday
After school today, Mona becomes a young adult and moves out.
With $80k in moving expenses, she moves into the former home of her father Tomax Collette.
Nadine also celebrates her teen birthday today.


Here's a collage of Mona and Nadine with their father.
They both have the exact same mouth as Tomax.


The Feng twins aged up early this morning.
Orfeu rolls Artistic Prodigy which he can easily finish before becoming a teen.
Pearl rolls Social Butterfly, which she'll never finish.
We're too busy to be travelling around so Pearl can make friends her own age.


Naoki's already here before I leave to give birth to Quentin and Raquel Fyres.
Until Dominic Fyres, I'd always conceived on the first try.
And now Naoki and I have to try twice before my pregnancy test is positive.
I really hope Dominic hasn't jinxed me!
At any rate, if I could marry any of my baby daddies today, I'd choose Naoki.



Thursday
Yesterday, Nadine moved out to live with her sister Mona in Glimmerbrook.
So far, I've given birth to 21 kids and moved out 15 of them.
I only wish everyone would send my family better birthday presents.
Who needs a gazillion decorative plates and toys?


Today, Orfeu and Pearl age up to teens.
Here they are alongside their elderly father Victor Feng (shown here as an adult).
Except for his hair color, Orfeu looks just like his father!
Tomorrow, I'm giving them $130k in moving expenses to move to Uptown, San Myshuno.


Later that evening, the Fyres twins age up.
Where does Quentin's red hair come from?



Friday
Orfeu and Pearl move out today to VIII Landgraab, next door to their half-sisters and Lily Feng.
With four household openings, I give birth to (gasp!) my first set of triplets.
Going by their bassinets, all three of them are spellcasters!


Marcus Flex is happily married to Brittany Cho with whom he has one child.
But he's been hanging around my lot so I recruit him to my cause.

Marcus: Not sure why we've come all the way to this lounge in Forgotten Hollow.
We could've tried for baby at your place, you know.


Marcus: So, you gonna explain why you brought me the Night Drinker Crypt?
Yae: Um, it's just a little experiment I'm running. Nothing to worry about!

But I wish I could run my experiment on twins.
Dare I move my helper Akemi out and raise triplet toddlers by myself?


It's just as well as that I'm trying this experiment.
I mean, I take a look around the Night Drinker Crypt and see only the usual suspects.
Agnes Crumplebottom is here, yakking to herself in the mirror.


At the bar, I spot Joaquin Le Chien, Clara Bjergsen, Yasmin Tinker, and Dirk Dreamer.
That's Eliza Pancakes with her back to us and Olivia Kim-Lewis is tending bar.
This lounge is a Vampire Nexus!
Are there no vampires in our simverse besides Vlad and the Vatores!? How pathetic!


Speaking of Vlad, I return home to find him at our front door.
Raquel the Social Butterfly makes up her mind to make Vlad her BFF.
Vlad and I are already good friends, but he never ages so there's no rush, right?



Saturday
Quentin decides to try his luck with the Wishing Well.
He wishes for better grades and gets promoted to a B student. Yay!


What amazing good fortune!
The Wishing Well also promotes Raquel to a B student!
We celebrate by giving both Quentin and Raquel makeovers.
Looks like there might be room for Flex twins after all!

*Fledermaus Bend (30x30): "Night Drinker Crypt" lounge (30x20) by SpecterCody.
  I absolutely love this lounge and use it in every challenge I can!
  It comes with the Vampire Nexus lot trait.
  As an experiment, I added the On Ley Line and Dark Ley Line lot traits.
  The closet is also my addition.

Prog4ess: End of Week 5
*Total Score: 17/100 moved out (includes occult bonus +2)
*Moved out this week (plus 6):
  - Tue: Mona Collette (#14/15)
  - Wed: Nadine Collette (#16/17)
  - Fri: Orfeu & Pearl Feng (#18 & 19)

*Current Household:
  Matriarch: Yae is 18 days to Adult and pregnant by Marcus Flex
  YA: Akemi Silversweater (#1/2, 3 days to Adult)
  Children: Quentin and Raquel Fyres (#20 & 21)
  Nooboos: Satoru, Takao, and Usami Takahashi (#22/23, 24/25, & 26/27)

NOTES
*Overpopulation: I've decided on how to deal with the issue of overpopulation.
  I've set Auto-Aging (Played Sims) to "Active Household Only" so Yae's children will never age.
  However, I'll selectively set some children's household as "Unplayed: so they'll age.
  I don't need all the children and their fathers to live forever.

*Housing: If the father lives in a nice house, he and his family might be evicted to a smaller home to make room for his kids with Yae.
  Yae's kids with homeless fathers will move in their housed siblings.

*Auto-Marriage & Auto-Pregnancy: Disabled for Played households.
  Since Yae's grandkids won't quality as baby daddies, I'd rather her kids not breed.

*Death of Baby Daddies: I know there's a rule prohibiting us from extending or saving the life of the the martriarch.  Does that rule also extend to the baby daddies?
  I didn't really think of that last week when we revived Dominic Fyres, but I wonder if that's a no-no. 
  Anyway, you think I should not have revived Dominic Fyres last week?
  This week, Dominic passed away along with all the other male townies who started out as adults, with the exception of Marcus Flex who has the Active trait.

I'm glad you saved Dominic - Yae made lovely babies with him. If it's not explicit in the rules I wouldn't worry about it.
You are lucky with the wishing well - fingers crossed for Flex twins!
