Hair Mystery Solved!

Time for another birthday. Olivia was turning into a teen today.

"My baby..."

So I had Shark invite Tegan and Olivia's friends LaShawn Whelohff (black shirt and cargo shorts) and Lawrence Harris (kid in the back with the yellow shirt), and a few of his co-workers and the celebration began!

Yay deforming body during age up! And Kess, don't think I don't see you glaring at me in that last picture.

"You're too good."

Meet the beautiful and stunning Olivia! She grew up so gorgeous! I feel like she's some model or something. When I saw how she grew up I gasped and she became my new favorite. I can't wait to see what Tegan grows up to look like. I probably won't be able to have any favorite if they all keep growing up this beautiful!

She gained the Athletic trait, which is kind of my least favorite because all they want to do is exercise. Now to analyze her looks and see what traits she inherited from Kess and Shark; those lips are neither Shark's nor Kessa's so they must be from somewhere on Shark's side, I love those thick eye brows she got from him and she got Kessa's nose. She's like the exotic model version of you, Kess.

"That was harsh. But I see it, Livy is so beautiful. She grew up way too fast."

Liv didn't want me to bring this up but you know LaShawn from the party?

"Yes, why?"

She has a huge thing for him. I'm seeing a first date in their future.

"What are you talking about? Olivia doesn't get to date until she's eighteen. We agreed about this when she was a kid. She hates boys."

I think that just changed. Kessa it's not like she's going to marry him. It's just a boyfriend.

"A boyfriend who could hurt her feelings or never fully commit. I will not let Livy make the same mistakes I did."

Well too late because I already told her it's fine if she dates him.

"Fear for your life tonight."

With all Kessa's home work she's got another promotion to Trendsetter in Training, and a new fancy outfit.

"I've had four promotions and I'm already halfway to complete my Lifetime Wish."

And with Shark's promotion to Elementary School Teacher he had to start gaining some Logic, which is the only thing he does now a days besides work.

"Unfortunately. We never get time together."

It's not like you're just sitting on the couch, you're either taking care of the twins or you're drawing.

Even though her face isn't showing I thought this was Kessa with new hair and a new outfit holding baby Gerard. I'm always catching myself making Olivia do the things I thought Kessa was going to do and so forth. They're little pictures look so alike.

"What little pictures?"

Um, nothing. There are no little pictures. Just ignore what I'm saying.

"Easier said than done."

Anyways the main reason of putting the picture up was it's the twins birthday!

"What a shock! A birthday."

Yay sparkle and happy twin birthday-ness!

Look at our little Gerard growing up! He's so cute and I can completely see Shark in him. Aw, Shark Jr.! But when he was choosing a hair style I clicked the long hair and he had white highlights and tips! But I found out where it was coming from! Shark's mother, Silver Racket, had platinum blonde hair. I don't know why I didn't see it before.

But at least the platinum blonde hair mystery has been solved.

And Honor basically seems like the mini-Tegan, beautiful and gorgeous with Grandma Silver's hair and Shark's eyes. I think both the twins have Kessa's lips and the same nose, whoever it is from. I can tell that both of them are going to be as stunning as Olivia turned out.

Surprise!

**WARNING** This one is oddly filled with lots of pictures and sneak peeks of what the house is turning into. I'll be sure to post lots of pictures of the new home when it gets all done!

So, are you ready for the big surprise? What Kessa asked Shark for?

"Why are you teasing the people?"

Because it's fun. And you are only helping me by talking.

"Darnit! I'm so sorry everyone."

Muahahaha, you just can't stop can you?

"Shutting up now. Just tell them!"

So Shark gave Kessa what she wished for...

Kessa's PREGNANT AGAIN! Yaaaayyy!

"Calm down there. It's not that exciting."

I think it is, maybe you'll have a boy this time. That's what I'm hoping for to give the heir vote a little variety.

Now that Olivia and Tegan have grown up they are always wanting to hang out and stayup all night talking.

"I know. They giggle so loudly they're always keeping Shark and I up. But at least they're not screaming for me to feed them or change their diapers."

But that won't be the case much longer, you've got another one on the way! Another cute bundle of joy to scream and cry for you twenty four seven and take up all of your time, you'll loose sleep, you're job performance will drop, your love life...down the drain.

"Thank you for reminding me after I'm already pregnant."

Any time, Kess. Any time.

Shark grew up into a full adult! Aw, he still looks as young and as cute when I first spotted him jogging past your work.

"Yeah, and unlike my fake birthday-happiness Shark was actually pretty stoked about growing up. He still feels weird about me being a few years older then him."

A few?

"Shush."

Did you draw Shark's chest?

"Erm...no..."

Well than...whose chest is...wait...no! You didn't!

"I didn't mean to! I just started drawing and then this turned up..."

How does Shark feel that you drew Sinbad and not him?

"He doesn't know."

You are horrible!

So we all had this cute plan to have the whole family go to the park, the girls wanted to have a bake sale and Kess was going crazy from not leaving the house. But then she went into labor!

"This feels worse then the first and second time! What is going on?!"

"Let's get her to the hospital!"

"I can't move! This baby is coming out now!"

Name: Gerard James

Generation: 2

Traits: Genius, Friendly

Favorites: Classical music, Dim Sum and the color Spiceberry

When I saw Spiceberry I actually laughed, I think we got a little fruity boy over here.

"Please don't talk about my so--OWW! What is going on! I thought this was over!"

Kess?

That's right! Twins!

Name: Honor James
Generation: 2

Traits: Good, Eccentric

Favorites: Soul music, Spaghetti and Irish Green.

Beautiful babies that I both love! Gerard is really different from his sisters with the traits but Honor showed that she is definitely like all the girls in this family; a little kooky. What was also weird with Honor was that when the box came up for Honor to be named it said 'Congrats blah blah, She was born with the traits Good and Burglar' But then it prompt me to choose a trait. How strange! I think it might be because Shark's family is kind of the mafia type and it's maybe a secret trait? But it was just an odd experience. I hope she isn't a closet klepto.

The rest of the family weekend didn't go as planned, I set up the bake sale at the park but I couldn't put the baked food on the table and it really frustrated me so they never got to sell anything. But at least they all got out of the house together.

Two Birthdays and Two Promotions

Happy birthday, Olivia! Beautiful little Livy grew up with the trait Neurotic. She's going to be interesting to deal with. Can't believe she's growing up already. So this time, I was the one who was kind of forgetful and I never took a picture of what she looked like as a child.

"Haha,"

It wasn't my fault, you were doing something foolish in the other room and I had to put an end to it. So really, this is all on you.

"You're just looking for another reason to be mean to me. But this isn't my fault at all."

You're always try to steal the lime-light from your kids. When you die are you going to continue to annoy me with your thoughts?

"I was thinking about it."

Shark got another promotion and he is now a Elementary School Teacher, he is such an over-achiever. But now he needs to hone the 'Charisma' trait to get any further.

"He's a natural at it though so it shouldn't even be a problem for him."

Don't boast about him, Kessa.

"Why not? You do all the time."

Because I said so. Now go draw something.

Look how obedient you are! Now, stand up, Kessy! Stand up!

"Shush your mouth. I have to work and you are distracting me!"

Oh that's right, you're trying to get another promotion.

"Yes, I just got to Houndstooth Soothsayer. Whatever the crap that means. But Shark and I really need to expand the house, we all feel so crowded so we're both trying to work hard and make enough to finish everything."

I know, Jeeze. You talk like I'm not inside your head or something. Oh, that reminds me. What the crap did you ask Shark for?

"I thought you were inside my head?"

I ugh...it's ugh...shut up!

So soon after Olivia's birthday came Tegan's, she got a hair cut and grew up with the trait Inappropriate. What are with these crazy traits, Kess? Hmm?

"No comment."

I can only imagine they're coming from your side of the family.

"Ugh...s-so another birthday, lady?"

Nice way to avoid the topic. But yes, we have a birthday every other day. I hope they stop soon.

"Are you secretly hoping that the whole family dies soon? Would that not defeat your whole 'legacy' thing you're doing?"

No it wouldn't because I'm just hoping you'll die. You've already done your part and brought me two possible heirs...I could kill you right now if I wanted!

"When I am silenced, you are silenced."

Actually my dear, Kessa. When you are silenced I then move to the heir. Hopefully Olivia and Tegan enjoy my company more than you have. I will be around forever...

"You are so creepy."

Meeting Tegan

Kessaaa, guess what?

"What?"

Your birthday is in three days.

"Shut up,"

You're like extremely old. Soon you will be old and wrinkly and Olivia and Tegan will be still young and vibrant hanging out with their young and vibrant father while you wither in the dust.

"Well that's fine, because once I die i'm rid of you!"

And that's fine because then I can steal your family. >:O muahahaa.

Speaking of, little Tegan had her birthday, once again the birthday went unnoticed by Kessa. Namely because she was invisible but anyways. So Tegan grew up and was still invisible so Kessa and Shark took another trip to the hospital and gave Tegan some medicine which in a few days made her appear!

So take your first look at our dear little Tegan James.

Name: Tegan James

Generation: 2

Traits: Excitable , Virtuoso.

Favorites: Latin music, tri-tip steak with barbeque sauce and the color green.

So I just have so much to say about little Tegan, she shares a trait with Olivia, and the same music but thats where the comparisons stop. This little beauty has like silver blonde hair! Where did that come from?! I saw this and like gasped. Shark's family was all brunettes from what I remember so seeing this crazy hair was a big shock. But she does have Shark's beautiful bright blue eyes and I'm pretty sure that's Kess' nose. I'm so excited to see what she'll grow up like and if she'll look more Kessa or act like her.

I think she's my new favorite.

So with all Kessa's hard at home work she finally got a promotion. She was feeling pretty behind from not promoting as fast as some of the other stylists but her career's priority dropped when Olivia came along.

"I miss the old outfit. I just look like I'm trying to be a scenester here."

Yeah, you went from class to...ughm...I'm not sure what rhymes with class and also suits what I'm trying to mean.

"Why do you even try, lady?"

What are you saying? I was distracted by the fact it's your BIRTHDAY!!

"That was fake enthusiasm in the first picture."

It's the only thing I can expect from you. But thanks for doing something more than your normal cow blank stare.

"HEY! Be sensitive! I am growing senile and I can't help it. Respect your elders."

You're like...thirty, calm down. It's not the end of the world. So what did Shark get you?

"Nothing, we're saving up to remodel the house. But I did ask him for something,"

What?

"It's a secret for now!"

Life at the James' house is pretty mundane, Kessa still has maternity leave so she spends most of her time taking care of Tegan and Olivia. Olivia has maxed out her xylophone skill and she successfully learned how to walk but Tegan is just learning to talk.

"Say boquet, Tegan. Boquet."

"Bokey!"

"Boquet."

"Broccoli!"

"Tegan is hopeless. I'm so tired of repeating words and her saying the wrong one. It's...annoying to say the least."

Annoying? She has the cutest voice! Tegan is amazing and you should love and goo over everything she does.

"I'm contemplating taking that offer of you taking the girls."

YES!

"For the weekend."

Ughh..

We might just figure out what Kessa asked Shark for her birthday! And I believe a birthday is just around the corner. We are slowly getting closer for heir vote, I can't wait so someday start on Generation 3. It seems to be taking forever.

Make-overs

So I want to get to this first, I know some were worried about poor little Olivia's status.

But after a trip to the doctors, a minor surgery Olivia is a normal toddler ready to crawl into the world, learn how to talk and walk without being mocked by the other children of Twinbrook.

She definitely looks just like Kessa, the same strawberry blonde hair and dark grey eyes. I'm in love with her pretty little face. But I'm wondering what features of Shark she'll get.

"I love when her hairs in piggy tails!"

Can we all just take a moment to go ga-ga over little Olivia? I didn't think you could create something so freaking precious, Kessa! Insert moment of coos and awws and baby talk.

"What can I say? I've got good genes."

So pretty much everything was breaking on Kessa and Shark. So their schedule was; eat, feed the babies, fix the toilet before using it, take a shower and break it. Next person fixes shower, before showering again, goes to wash the dirty dishes and the sink breaks, yada yada yada. Lots of puddles and a very annoyed me. And with Shark getting promoted again to Substitute teacher, everyone is having a horrible experience with getting everything done.

"Life is really chaotic. I miss the days when I lived by myself, just did the daily make over of the Sims of Twinbrook, and complain to you about yourself."

Those were the days, just you and me and the open world...

"Don't try and make it like we were ever buddies, lady. We are in a forced situation and we are dealing with it. Got it?"

Shaaarkk! She's being mean again...

I had to put pictures of little Olivia. I wish the lights were on in her room but I didn't think about that during the snapshot time. She's so cute to me. I just want to steal her away.

"Olivia stays in her home, with her parents. You will not take Livy anywhere!"

Awww, Livy. What an adorable nickname. All the more to steal her!

"I look so hot with long hair. It grew out all nicely."

Yes, Kessa's hair got longer and I love it. The short hair was cute but I'm glad it's longer. Makes you look more like a Mom. And also makes you look older. Extremely older...:D And your hubby also got a new look, it was well over do.

"Yeah, I noticed we both kind of had the same hair cut..."

It was cute at first. But I like his shorter, looks more grown up. And I like his new outfit, it's not so slobby. More, young father. You guys look all cute now. I wish I could be apart of your family...

"You are so weird."

We have two models in the family! So cute.

Anyways, so today Shark got to change his lifetime wish, we all know it was bugging poor Kess and himself too. After a long discussion with Kessa he chose Golden Tongue, Golden Fingers. I think it's reasonable lifetime wish to achieve before he kicks the can and everyone loves a boy with a guitar.

"Not that he's using it to get any girls."

No, not at all.

"He's doing it because he's naturally charismatic and has always wanted to play guitar."

You don't have to tell me Kessa, I know why.

I'm sorry for no updates on Tegan but she's still invisible and we are anxiously waiting for her to become a toddler so we can go see about fixing this problem. So hopefully next update she will be viewable and we can all gush over her.

Deformed and Invisible Babies

"You will not believe what Shark just told me!"

He still on that you're pregnant rant?

"No this is about Sinbad. But before I tell you I must say, I don't want to hear about Sinbad anymore! Both of you think I care so much but I barely remember that Spike wanna be. Anyways, I guess Shark's grandma Marigold is dating him."

Oh wow. He...really like those older ladies.

"Yeah, I just thought you would enjoy hearing that. But back to Shark constantly telling me I'm pregnant. He was right."

Definitely going to make Shark look into the physic career! How crazy is that! (Shark really did know she was pregnant before her. Right after they tried for a baby he had a want to rub her belly and talk to it. Shark is just the perfect husband *happy sigh*)

"This is all just so crazy, we just had Olivia and now another one is on the way. And I miss going to work all the time, I'm just stuck drawing at my table, changing diapers while Shark gets to go out and I'm just home. I want to go to work!"

I doubt Shark thinks that, I bet he'd prefer to be a stay at home dad but he brings in a daily income and especially since another little Kessa is coming we need that. You guys have like four thousand on hand. But hey, you got a promotion from at home sketches so you just need to take what you get.

"I know, I know. Just after this one I'm hiring a baby sitter and going straight back to work!"

I heard babysitters have a tendency to steal the kids.

"Well if they want to take a screaming, stinky, little bundle of joy home for themselves, more power to them."

And you wonder why it's hard to trust you with Olivia.

Yaaayy! You're fat again. I luff when you're all chubby.

"You are rude,"

You love it, Kessy.

"That's Shark's nick name for me. You are NOT allowed to use it."

I don't think angering the person who controls if you die or not is wise, Kessy.

Yay for baby number two! Woo! This pregnancy was awfully fast. Oh no... what if it's a preemie?

"Can we talk about this when I'm--AAAAHH!--not in labor!?"

Yes, yes. Go! Give birth to your beautiful child! While you leave poor Olivia to have her birthday all alone...to grow up scared and confused. 'Where's momma?'

"SHUT UP!"

AHH! Oh my jeeze! Oh my what is this monster?

Oh, that's right. It's Olivia. This was what I was talking about, deformed children. I'm curious as to why it didn't show up as a baby but I'll never know with this ridiculousness.

Thank God, Kessa didn't see this...

"But I did! My poor Olivia! Can this be fixed?"

We just have to have good thoughts about it.

Ugh...Kess what are you holding?

"I'm holding Tegan."

I don't see this..."Tegan" character.

"Do we have to talk about this?"

I'd like to know why you are holding nothing in your arms. Oh no...no...she has The Invisible Baby syndrome :O No!

"No!"

"NO!"

Will Olivia ever get a normal body and will we ever get to see the darling Tegan?

Meet the Baby

"Shark thought I was crying from the pain but I was definitely in tears from the fact that it happened to me. I was shirtless and I couldn't change it."

I swear on my life Kessa that will never happen again. It really angered me because baby bump shots were pretty much non-existent. I really need to find and get rid of the evil topless-ness! So you and your shirtless self and Shark hopped in a cab and raced to the hospital where you promptly gave birth. Aww!

Name: Olivia James
Generation: 2

Traits: Clumsy, Virtuoso.

Favorites: Latin music, fish and chips, and the color blue.

She's so precious. Virtuoso, she's gonna want to be a little rock star when she's older!

"Of course she is precious, she is my child."

If baby Olivia could talk I bet that she would say that she was she was mine. Maybe even Shark would say the same thing.

"Shark actually finds you quite weird so I don't think that's his train of thought."

Demonic much?

"I hate bad angles."

You look like you're about to eat your baby! Like Megan Fox in Jennifer's Body. Except...she didn't eat babies, she ate boys. Same deal. You're creepy and I don't quite trust you with Olivia. I have my eye on you. And Shark...mmmm.

Aww! Shark and Olivia. He's so good with her. And never gives a creepy demonic look while holding her. He also got a promotion in his job, I don't remember the name but all that counts is he's moving up the ladder!

"Kessa thinks I'm crazy but I'm pretty sure she's already pregnant again."

That does kind of seem skeptical, Shark-boy. I mean, she's not showing and she doesn't really have any signs.

"A man just knows."

The saying a woman just knows. But alright, I can dig it...But I feel like it's not that likely.

"You just wait, lady,"

"Who's he?"

You know who that is! It's Goodwin.

"What kind of name is Goodwin?"

...The good kind? I don't know. Why don't you remember him? He was one of the first people you met in Twinbrook.

"I have no recollection of this man but whatever you say. Why is he here?"

It wasn't really stated. I think he wanted to meet your baby or something. (Kessa really had no idea who this guy was when he showed up and Shark didn't know him either so I was like..wtf?)

"He scared me. But he told me something about Clark Peddler, my first client."

What?

"Clark's having a baby! Looks like my styling not only boosted his job but got him a wife and now a kid. I'm so amazing."

I'm so proud of you.

So now the question is, is Shark secretly harboring the insane trait or did he really foresee Kessa being pregnant again?

It Happened To Me

I forgot to put Shark's stat's up last post :/ wah wah.

Name: Shark James (formerly known as Shark Racket)

Generation: 1, Founder's spouse

Lifetime Wish: Heartbreaker

Traits: Flirty, Great Kisser, Hot-Headed, Athletic, Charismatic

Favorites: Soulful music, hamburgers hot off the grill and the color red. Which is why if he ever says anything he will be in red.

"Shark never told me..."

Told you what Kess?

"His lifetime wish. Heartbreaker!? What kind of fast one does he think he's trying to pull!"

Yeah...I didn't really want to be the one to tell you but I thought he said something. And I was kind of flipping through his black book and found a few girls names with hearts next to them.

"I...I can't believe this. I'm having this liars kid!"

"Kessy, listen to me."

"Why is he here?"

You guys need to talk this out. Shark-boy, just tell her what you told me.

"Kess I was a different man before I met you. Yeah I had a few girlfriends before you but isn't the only thing that matters is that I chose you? I love you Kess, and when I get the time I'll call those girls and tell them its over. And maybe we can get my lifetime wish changed."

"...That'd be nice."

Awww, Shark-boy! I luff you.

You might be wondering why Shark-boy is running into this building while that creepy girl just stands there and never moved. Well, Shark thought it was best to get a steady job as a Playground Moniter to bring in some more money. So sweet.

"Yeah, with me not being able to work with the pregnancy he wanted to pitch in. Plus he felt that once he gets promoted enough he can hassle his old school teachers."

Its a win-win.

You're so fat.

"Yeah, it's grossing me out too."

"Do you guys not see the beauty and amazingness of pregnancy?"

I'm pretty sure the only thing we're seeing is the fat.

*nods* "And now it's hard to sleep. And I'm so freaking hungry all the time. Can this baby leave now?"

So guess what I found out while you were drawing green pants?

"You're going to tell me even if I say I don't want to know, aren't you?"

Sinbad and Mary are divorced.

"Oh my...Oh my...Why would you tell me this?"

I don't know...I think it's kinda funny.

"You have some sick humor, lady! Ow.."

What? What's happening?

"I heard yelling, what's going on!"

"I think I'm going into labor."

Before I end this I would like to note I do realize Kessa is shirtless. She caught the awful topless bug. It disturbed the both of us and made it really hard to get any pregnancy pictures, that's why there was two. But yes, will Kessa get to throw on a shirt before she heads to the hospital? And is this beautiful baby going to be a girl or boy?

"Please note that this can happen to anyone, anyone can get the topless bug. Don't feel afraid. There is help. It happened to me, and it can happen to you."
