Hello little October that is such a cool name of course I would probably shorten it to Octo or Tober if it were me. Great birth story.

October? That is... adorable! Wait, I don't think Lexa would want people thinking that her minion was adorable. I think it would be rather ironic if October turned out to be a goodie-goodie because Lexa is so evil.

I love this. Your characters crack me up, I can't stop LOLing.

Thanks Artsygirl, Raia, ratchie, Snuffles and Iless. Ratchie she started off as a Tober in my head but she's become a Toby now I think. She's a teen in game and it's almost like she's decided that that's her name.

A Decent Babysitter

Roderick spends every spare second with his little girl. He's a good dad.

Lexa is sometimes a good mum.

But not always.

Lexa: But what use does a baby have for a lollipop anyway?

That's not the point.

Lexa: Why not?

Maybe we'll just leave baby care duties to Roderick.

Roderick: How's my little girl today then? How's daddy's little lass? Ooh, that stinks. Eww. I can't wait until we can potty tarin you.

Lexa instead decides to get back in shape following the birth.

Lexa: If I can't run away from the police I'll be useless.

I used a lot of babysitters because Lexa and Roderick both have careers that work in the evenings. This babysitter actually looked after little October. He fed her, changed her diaper, and... put the swing on SLOW!

Tober: Gurgle gurgle.

See, she likes him too.

Babysitter: Ewww, another diaper change?!

Not soon enough (I hate the baby stage), her first birthday rolls around. I'm actually amazed I took any photos, usually I just play on fast-forward through it. We have a party, so Roderick can befriend his co-workers for the happiness points. Lexa brings her out to her cake.

Roderick: I can't believe my little girl is growing up!

Theo Cardamon: I hate Lexa CrumpleSteel.

Best not to say that too loudly, she's a martial arts champion.

Burrito...

...to toddler.

Everyday. She's got Lexa's skintone and hair colour (before the blue streaks) but Roderick's eyes.

Formal.

Sleepwear.

Tober certainly is a cutie pie. Lexa is right babies have no use for lolliopops and neither do toddlers it is bad for their teeth she is just being a good mum.

That burrito part made me spit out the tea I was drinking.

What a cutie!

Tober looks adorable! There actually is a good babysitter!

Tober looks especially cute!

Snufflesxx · « **Reply #383 on:** August 20, 2012, 11:14:30 AM »

Aww! Tober is such a sweetie! Glad she looks like Lexa but I like that she got her Daddy's eyes.

ArianaJade · « **Reply #384 on:** August 20, 2012, 02:02:57 PM »

Thanks everyone. She really is a cutie.

Supermax Hints and House Decorations

Lexa: Ahhh! Relaxation.

You don't need relaxation. You don't do anything.

Lexa: I've had a busy day.

Let me tell the readers exactly what you have done so far today (besides going to the toilet, because nobody wants to see a screenshot of Lexa going to the toilet)

Lexa: I use the toilet in a very authoritative manner.

This is what you have done today.

Oh, and this.

Lexa: What? Ratchie says lollipops are bad for toddlers and therefore I am a good mother for stealing it.

If ratchie said you should steal your babies shoes, would you? And, more importantly, how did you read the forum?!

Lexa: I have my ways.

Meanwhile, your husband is teaching your kid to read.

Roderick: The paint goes on the paintbrush. The paintbrush goes on the paper.

Tober: Goooo!

Okay, she can't talk, use the potty or walk yet, but she can apparently read.

Or maybe she's just looking at the pictures. It is an art book afterall.

Lexa: Can you say criminal?

Tober: Crimmy-nil bad.

Lexa: No. Criminal good.

Tober: No.

Lexa: I thought that indoctrinating toddlers was going to be easy.

Tober: Toby wobbly.

Lexa: Yeah, alright, alright. Walking's easy, little one. Even policemen can do it.

Tober: Policey wobbly.

Lexa: Hmm, you might have a point there. Maybe I should just push them over next time.

Lexa: That's it, come to mummy.

Lexa: Yellow plus blue equals green. Red plus yellow equals orange. Painting can be used for evil.

Tober: Orange!

Lexa: You're just not evil enough are you?

Lexa: If you say "crimmy-nil bad" one more time then mummy won't ever throw you in the air again.

Aha. Bribery.

Tober: No!

A bit of a house tour. This is the overhead view. You can see Lexa and Roderick's room in the top left, the kitchen top right, bathroom bottom left and Tober's room bottom right. The middle bit is a living/dining room. It's small but I quite like that everything's on one floor and close together.

The living/dining room.

Kitchen. Please ignore the smell coming from the fridge. Lexa assures us it's not anything sinister.

Tober's room. It's small but so is she.

Isn't she cute.

But now it's bedtime for Tober so we should all leave. Next time in the CrumpleSteel house, we have xylophones, potty training, unfortunate baldness, and another birthday party.

Tober is soo cute

Snufflesxx · « **Reply #386 on:** August 20, 2012, 02:31:22 PM »

I think Tober has to be my favourite heir so far even though she's still a toddler

RaiaDraconis · « **Reply #387 on:** August 20, 2012, 03:26:34 PM »

Tober is funny already and she can hardly talk yet!

ArianaJade · « **Reply #388 on:** August 21, 2012, 09:11:12 AM »

Roderick's Woes

Oh! Someone potty trained you!

Tober: Stinky mummy.

Lexa: I think you're the stinky one right now, kiddo. I don't need to wear nappies.

By your age, that shouldn't be an achievement.

Roderick's still on reading duty. Tober loves the art books. Which is good, seeing as her child and teen years are going to be spent chained to an easel.

And because I never have much luck with getting painting opportunities, she's also going to take up a couple of instruments to get some skill ops from them.

Lexa: That's it, now hit the blue one.

What are you trying to get her to do?

Lexa: I want some theme music. What evil empress worth their salt doesn't have theme music?

Okay. I'll leave you to that one.

Roderick: Please don't. I'm trying to hear all the ingredients for Egg Rolls and I can't over that noise.

On another note (bad pun alert) I love the faces Roderick pulls. He's so expressive.

Roderick: Just let me watch this in peace.

And when she's not being educated, Tober loves her doll. It's called Verity.

Paparazzi are one of the most annoying things on the planet.

Lexa: If you're not gone by the time I'm over there, I'm going to karate-chop you into next week.

Paparazzi: Ooh! It'll be an exclusive then?!

Lexa: So not the point.

I was wondering where you'd got to.

Roderick: I wanted peace, and someone said old men are meant to go fishing for peace. I don't even like it. It's boring.

Good, I'm glad you don't like it. You can go look for that meteor that Lexa just spotted.

Roderick: Is that a peaceful job?

Oh, very.

Chop chop. Just stick it in your pocket. We haven't got all day.

Roderick: That fits in my pocket?

You didn't question what fits when you just stuck your car in there.

The good babysitter strikes again.

Remember this face people.

Tober: I can see my nose.

Babysitter: If the wind changes you'll be stuck like that.

Don't be silly. There's no such thing as wind. Seasons hasn't been released yet, for a start.
