Thank you.  I love the idea of matching him up with a Rose, samoht04.  I hope I can find one for him.

He is a little cutie, by the way.  I don't know if I am getting better at managing the babies but his baby days were a relative breeze.  Of course, I have a house full of people to help.  It was a bit different from when Daisy and Tyron were struggling with twins.


We had two semi-dramas as my beloved twins were visited by Grimmy.  Luckily they each had a deathflower to give him.  First it was Dahlia.


and a few days later, her twin Daphne.


I have decided that each of my old girls will get one deathflower.  I am not going to be as kind to the husbands.

I wanted Daffodil to have a child and a husband.  I found one guy she worked with who might fill the bill.  He was a vampire and looked presentable in his icon pic.  So he was invited over.

He didn't take much convincing and soon the chimes were ringing.  The trouble is, he irritated everyone else in the house.  Dandelion and her husband hated him, Daphne thought he was a jerk, and Dahlia just ignored him.  I could have lived with this but when he got dressed to leave the sad truth dawned.  He had become a vampire, he had changed his hair, but I recognized those clothes.  I sort of recognized his name too.  This is the guy who discussed vegetables with grandma Daisy when she was a young thing.  Her grand-daughter had woohooed with a man old enough to be her grandfather!  Oh dear.


No wonder she couldn't figure out her food.

That is hilarious Figwit!  I don't blame you for sending the guy packing - that is just, well, creepy to say the least.   :o

Thorn is adorable!  I can't wait to see if Daffodil's baby will be a vampire or not - what suspense.   ;D

So do each of your Heirs to the next Generation get a Death Flower and then when they used it the next time they go?

Yes, I think that is what I will do samoht04.  Daisy had a deathflower so I thought it only fitting that her daughters should have one.  The two cousins each have one.  We will see how we go from there. Who knows if my game might need one too.  It is chugging along quite well at the moment but was a bit slow to load yesterday.  That is not a good sign :(

Thanks SQ for your comments.  I will see if I can get the baby pics done soon. I am only a little way ahead of myself now.

There are quite a lot of tips in the Technical Board on speeding your game up. I have a Generation 6, with 7 n the way, Legacy going and the Lag on there is not too bad. Dynasty can get laggy due to all the Portraits, Sculptures and other items a Dynasty collects.  :)

Thanks samoht04, but when I loaded it again yesterday it worked beautifully.  I don't know why it was so slow the day before.  I am quite pleased with the way it is going.  At the moment I have a full house (8 sims) and there is barely any lag.  I can't believe the difference in performance in playing without mods.  Still, I had better not jinx myself by being too cocky.  ;D

 :D  Thank you all.

Daffodil had her baby, Delphinium.  She is indeed a vampire child.  She is a cutie but seems more solid than most.  I have a feeling she will take after her chubby dad.


Remember Jon Lessen, the gorgeous rock star who went to flab?  Well now he is a rather old vampire.


I am really kicking myself too because Daffodil has met the most perfect man.  His name is Woodrow and he actually has parents and seems a very nice young man.

He hardly glanced at the money trees when she asked him to be her fella.


They were married and consumated their marriage in style.  They actually chose the tent themselves.


Woodrow is great with little Delphinium and the rest of the household likes him too.  I wish Grandma Dahlia would stop flirting with her sons-in-law.  It does no-one any good.

Still, they both scrub up pretty well. 

This is William who is married to Dandelion.


And Woodrow with a hair cut.


Thorn grew up and showed that he inherited his mother's crossed eyes.  He looks like his dad otherwise.


And the cousins have aged to Adult.



They don't look much different because they kept the same hair and clothes.

Spotted at the gym.  It seems the cousins weren't the only ones who wanted to parade around in wedding dresses. I am not sure if it is this sim's gym outfit or her everyday wear.



And for some reason, this made me very sad. So long Jon.

LOL when I saw the name Woodrow I couldn't stop laughing, if anyone was a Fresh Prince fan way back when you would know why. I can not wait to see how the rest goes keep them coming.
