With everything going on in life, I decided to age the kids up. I was sick of just sitting around waiting for James to call.
Michael looks quite a bit like his dad now!
"Does my little China girl want to age up?" I asked Faye.
"Wes mommy! Me wanna age up now!"
I laughed and walked her over to the cake.
Faye looks quite a bit like her dad and I see no resemblance to me whatsoever. Man, these elders sure have dominant features.
Tthis is Wendy! Isn't she cute?
This is Andie! Super cute!
I realized that sitting around wasn't going to get me anywhere. I hadn't heard from James, so I decided to take a quick trip to France. Just quick enough to meet a cute French guy and make cute French kids!
I decided I needed to fit in, so this is my awesome France outfit!
When we got there, Faye immediately sat down in her and Michael's room and began playing with her weird doll.
"Mom!" Michael said, walking up to me. "I don't want to share a room with my little sister!"
"Michael, we won't be here for very long. Suck it up. Nobody will ever know."
"But mom!" he exclaimed. "I have to share a bed with her, too!"
"Suck it up, Michael. This is all I could afford."
He glared at me and went to do whatever Michael does.
I decided to go on a challenge father hunt. I found this cute guy and he is French!
"Hello, my name is Paisley."
"I'm doing the 100 Baby Challenge."
He stared blankly at me. "Um... and I'd be honored if you would be the next father!"
He continued to stare at me. I stepped my game up a little. "...please?"
He clasped his hands together and squealed. Oh no. "I'd love to be!"
We looked into each others eyes, and I just have to say, it was a nice break from the elders...
He grabbed my hands! I had to hold in a squeal myself, I'll be honest here.
I leaned in and kissed him. It just felt like the right time!
I started to run back to the hotel.
And he followed!
I felt like I was in a high speed chase... or slow speed, whatever.
I shooed the kids away and we sat down on the bed. It felt so good to be with a man my age rather than a man my grandpa's age!
I found some scissors and cut my hair and changed my clothes. I was actually SICK of being in France so I called the airport and headed home.
When we got back to Sunset Valley, I called up Amber Lights. I had talked to her on Facebook before and I wanted to meet her in person. She just lives across town and we somehow have never met before.
She said to meet at her house (which isn't the same as in her blog because I obviously don't have that house...) So I headed over there!
"Hi Amber!" I said once I got there. I think it took her a moment to realize who I was.
"Oh hello Paisley! I'm glad we could finally meet!"
"I am too!"
"So, how is it we've never met before?"
"I have absolutely no clue! You only live across town, don't you? I think we've both just been too busy!"
"Well what would you say about coming over to my house and we could hang out?"
"Sure! I'd love that!"
Eeek! My idol was standing in my door way! She was the whole reason I decided to start my challenge in the first place!
She walked right over to my baby and picked her up!
"You are such a sweet heart," she baby talked.
"Thank you, stwanger," she replied.
Anna- Leigh was still at my house and she and Amber seemed to get along well...
... really well...
We decided to get a picture together. I admit, I look creepy in this...
We went to a game of hopscotch! "I'm totally going to beat you!"
"Oh, you wish, Paisley!" Amber said cheerfully.
"Whoopsies..." she said when she stepped on the stone.
She trudged off and I laughed evilly.
"Oh Amber, Amber, Amber..." I mocked.
She burst out laughing. I took a step back because it was such a surprise. I expected her to say something witty back, not laugh! But it was only a matter of time before I was doing the same thing.
"You're just jealous of my amazing stone stepping skills!" she exclaimed.
"Not exactly!" I exclaimed back.
"So, before we both explode, do you want to go use the slip n' slide?"
"Sure!"
I went first.
Amber went next. And fell on her face.
"Ah! My back!" she cried when she finally managed to pull herself up.
"I'll just go again..."
"Oh, I'm so going to win this too!" I really have no clue how it turned into a competition. How do you 'win' at the slip n' slide?
She took another turn! You cheat!
"Amber Lights! You have taken three turns and I have taken zip!"
And she took another. "Well it's not my fault that you were distracted," she retorted.
"I'm so pumped! I am SO going to beat you!"
"Oh you think that, but I'm going to win."
"Only because you cheated, Lights."
And before I could go, she gently pushed me aside and took another turn! What? How did this happen!?
But of course I got the feeling that we all enjoy.
I tried to hold it in because I wanted to show this girl who's boss! :P
I clapped for no reason at all.
AND SHE TOOK ANOTHER TURN!
I pushed her back and took my first turn amongst her many! "
"Finally!" she yelled sarcastically.
"No, no, no, not so fast," I scolded.
"I'm taking another turn!"
I jumped on before she could say otherwise.
And she quickly took her turn.
"Go Amber!" I shouted. "even though you cheated..." I mumbled loud enough for her to hear.
When I got up from my last turn, I rubbed my back. "Ouch! You really knew what you were saying!" I exclaimed.
But, of course, I had to barf...
We decided to take a break from our competitive ways and we went to the Bistro.
She clapped when she got her lobster.
And I dug right into my food.
We ate silently for a few minutes.
We started having a very competitive conversation. What is with this relationship? I feel like we're Cassie and I...
Of course, I stepped in with full force!
She saw one of her kids and smiled at them.
But then it was back to our conversation!
But after a while she stomped her foot. "Agh! I'm sorry Paisley, I have to get back to my kids."
"I mean I can't get any time to be with friends!"
"I don't mean to complain, but really?"
"I'm so sorry, Paisley. We can do this again soon, okay?"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, Amber. It's okay, really, I'm fine. I completely understand!"
"Boo!"
"What's up with these kids of ours?"
Then she took a deep breath and left. Please note: I took a bunch of random pictures of Amber and didn't know what to do with them, so I just did that to fill them in.
When I got home I slipped into bed.
But soon got a call that Hadley Reed was in town! I went right over there. We had met once before when I went to Bridgeport a few months back.
"So, what are you doing here, Hadley?" I asked.
"I mean you don't have any family here, do you?"
"Nope. I just needed to get away for a while!"
"Good choice."
We had a nice little conversation about life.
Then I invited her over.
When we got there, I was welcomed by my new baby(s)!
Hadley quickly made herself at home...:P
And I went about taking care of the twins.
And went to sleep myself.
Hadley took a liking to the other twins!
We didn't really get to do much hanging out together though because she had to go back to Bridgeport. Something about her kids I think... But I have no clue why she changed into her bikini for this. What madness, Hadley Reed, what madness! (Hadley's hair is not purple and pink anymore, but I did this when it was, so I apologize)
I went to the new pet store to look around and guess who I saw? Anna-Leigh! She got a job! And she didn't tell me? There will be a beating later.
"I'm sorry. I got this job like ten minutes ago. Calm your fat butt down," she said when I got on her case.
"Well you don't need to be a jerk about it," I replied, sort-of jokingly and walked out.
I decided I needed a dog so when I got home I got on the local animal shelter's site to 'browse' pets.
When my dog arrived, well, I about died. She was so freaking cute! I decided to name her Lily.
I picked her up. She was the size of my hand! OMG!
She looked up at me with those big, gray eyes.
I petted her and she almost died in my hands!
I looked over at my door step and saw the saddest thing; a stray cat. All these strays want is a nice home to live in and some food. Any food. And do we selfish brats take them in and make them ours? No. We leave them in the cold. Think about it like they're children! Well, that's always been my opinion, but I'm just a sim who has
many opinions.
I brought her inside and gave her a nice, wet smoochie. I was used to kissing men... puppies are a little different.
I hugged her. She had to be like 2 ounces! She was SO light!
I set her down and she immediately found her way to the new bed I bought. She was so stinkin' cute!
To make use of my time, I went upstairs to teach Wendy how to walk.
While Faye and Lily started getting along.
Just look at their faces!
Michael decided to be productive as well and taught Andie how to walk.
While Faye and Lily kicked back on the couch and watched the kids channel.
How come my house is the club house for gnome gatherings?
Faye really wore Lily out! She slept all freaking day!
When the kids went to school, I spent a nice relaxing day with my baby.
While Wendy watched TV.
Although once we got to potty training it wasn't so relaxing. Andie through a fit and refused to poop! How come she enjoyed it so much when she was allowed to go in her diapers but when I want her to be a big girl she says she doesn't want to?
Look at that pouty face. Usually that would've gotten me, but today it isn't working!
Lily is so small that she could barely prop herself up to eat!
I slipped into bed when the kids got home.
Wendy and Lily became good friends, too.
When I woke up, Lily and I played tug-of-war. Lily has stolen all of our hearts!
We kicked back and relaxed once the kids were at school again and the babies were in the playroom.
But of course she had to pee.
And plopped right where she was to go to sleep.
I went upstairs and went into labor in front of my babies.
When I finally waddled my way into my room, I gave birth to Shawn Parker! Look at that little face! Aw!
Michael grew up to be an exact replica of his dad except a little lighter.
Faye has some weight issues now, but she's still beautiful to me!
Wendy has some very sharp features and she's very beautiful!
Andie looks exactly like she did when she was a toddler. Pig-tails and all! And she looks nothing like Wendy. They're also
nothing alike.
Jonathan is the cutest toddler on the face of the earth and I gave birth to him! I'm lucky!
Kale looks exactly like Jon except his eyes are farther apart. These are the two cutest babies on the planet!
I saw Lily totally tearing up my chairs!
This is my Halloween costume! An English horse rider!
I called to order pizza because what's a party without a pizza, right?
I 'awwwed' my little baby and went to work.
Cassie got here in her mad scientist costume! I personally think it suits her! :P
Anna-Leigh came in her 'sexy cowgirl costume.'
I started dorking out to get them to dance!
We got a bunch of sweet pictures!
I got REALLY into dancing!
Then while Anna-Leigh danced her butt off, Cassie and I moved onto Key Lime Pie. A family favorite.
We talked about basic things; my challenge, which is always the first thing to come up and Cassie's job, which is always the last. Who
really cares about somebody's job, anyways?
Lily followed my around the entire night. I knew she had separation issues, but not like that!
I tried calling James, but he wouldn't answer.
Cassie had to go so I asked Anna to spend the night. She said yes, of course, because I'm just that irresistible!
I guess I'm not that special because once the girls got home Lily followed them around.
I may be from the city, but I'm a country girl at heart. There's a country part of Bridgeport and that's where I lived. On the outskirts. I owned a horse and a ranch. It was a total stereo-typical country life. So I decided that I wanted to feel that again. I have lived in the suburbs too long.
I was starting to get homesick so I adopted a horse. A girl named Star.
Isn't she gorgeous? She looks exactly like my old horse.
I went on a ride with her. It felt good to be in the saddle again. It really did. I was a little rusty, of course, but I was going to get better.
I also adopted a kitten named Snowshoe. Now, I'm not exactly a 'cat person,' but I know I'll have some kids who are cat people, so I got him. And he's adorable. I also used to own a cat when I was little named Billy-Bob. (my brother named him...)
I was
very rusty. I was starting to freak out.
And when I got back Snowshoe was in the street... maybe I won't have him very long...
I went over and picked up the little butt-face. I think these animals should count as three babies because they're just as much work!
It was Halloween and Faye dressed up as a cowgirl.
Wendy (left) and Andie dressed up as princesses.
And after trick-or-treating, I decided to put the cherry on top and buy them something from the icecream man. Like the candy isn't going to give them a big enough sugar rush...
But, the icecream man is a new addition to Sunset Valley and it reminded me of being back home. I am really starting to get homesick.
And this icecream is just like mama used to make! Okay, not really, but it was still amazing.
After I sent the kids home, I set out to the graveyard. It's Halloween and I'm going to have a ghost baby!
I sat on the bench to wait.
And wait.
And watch turtles.
I finally went to mourn a random grave to see if a ghost would come out.
And one finally did.
It took me by surprise and I think I offended him.
"Hello. I'm Paisley Parker and--"
"I know who you are. Let's get this done," he said.
We went to the nearest bed and made my next child.
I strutted back home with pride.
And so did Snowshoe.
I had been up all night so when I finally got to go to bed I had nothing but good dreams. About Bridgeport. What was I thinking? I didn't like Bridgeport. It was loud and obnoxious and nothing could make me go back.
-Star's POV-
I went to the beach to blow off some steam.
And had to bring these two hooligans with me.
They started chasing each other in the streets. Oh, joy.
-Paisley's POV-
Faye grew up so I could have another baby so I aged Wendy up. She is a butt-face. A big one. She doesn't listen and she does what she wants. She added red to her hair just to be rebellious and
when I tell her to wear something appropriate to school she doesn't. She goes IN something okay but changes and I have no control over it.
Andie is the complete opposite, however. She added blonde to her hair and fashion is everything to her.
She says if you're not at the top of the 'style chain,' whatever that is, that you are nothing. Okay, whatever. She snubbed Wendy and Wendy snubbed her back. They hate each other and have not talked once.
Jonathan is a cute, fun-loving little boy.
Kale is too and he and his brother love each other. At least there's
some love between siblings.
Shawn is one of the cutest toddlers I've ever had. He is a favorite of the family. Everybody loves him, even Wendy.
I got to work teaching Shawn his skills.
My kitchen is always a crowded place...
Wendy was sprayed by the sink and Andie was pretty pleased with herself for being able to pull off a prank like that.
When Wendy clogged the toilet she didn't do anything about it. She didn't even tell me. I found out about it on my own.
And even though they hate each other, Wendy and Andie have to share a bunk.
Kale and Jon's favorite thing to do is preside over a royal court.
I even get sucked in most of the time.
I got really sick so I ran to the bathroom.
It wasn't pretty. I was
really sick. Maybe because it was a ghost baby?
Wendy woke up in a stupid mood today.
But it was okay because I was pregnant.
Being around Star made me
really homesick. I even had to go inside because of it. It's not a good feeling to miss a place you hate.
I sat down to watch TV for the rest of my pregnancy.
So did Lily.
I was joined by several people in my TV time.
And I finally went into labor.
Why hello my little angel, Danny Parker!
I called James. He finally answered. "Hey baby! When are you going to be home?"
His answer shocked me. "I'm not coming back." He hung up.
I couldn't believe what I had just heard. He wasn't... coming back?
The room was starting to spin. I felt so light-headed.
I ran to the park and eventually standing became too much for me.
I felt myself falling.
And finally fell to the floor. The last thing I remember was hitting my head on the ground and closing my eyes, in unbearable pain.
Hello everyone! I hope that post was worth your wait and you totally enjoyed it. The beginning I did a LONG time ago so it was a little rushed. I tried as hard as I could to get this post done but things just kept popping up in my life! I have a very big and very sad surprise in the next post that could possibly change Paisley's life forever. Two of these surprises. Paisley's life is going to suck for a while, that's all you get to know for now. I'll have the next post out as soon as possible, I swear! PLEASE gift Paisley and the family something at
http://store.thesims3.com/myWishlist.html?persona=Ileena
I will literally love you forever if you do! :) Bye for now!
