You say it's your birthday, February 2040

Round 34: February 2040 (Summer)

It's time for Maia and Ethan's baby to arrive! Maia is a bit concerned that the baby will arrive when Willow just happens to be at home.




Though Willow seems to be coping about as well as Ethan anyway!


And it's quite sweet that Willow is able to be there to welcome her baby sister into the world!


The whole family is thrilled to finally meet Wren Annalise


Leslie has just gone into labour, so she and Dominic are about to become first time parents!


As if that wasn't overwhelming enough, Leslie and Dominic are expecting twins!

Both are proud to bring a son and a daughter into their family!


Oscar Liam looks just like his mother, with brown hair and dark blue eyes. 



Stella Arianna looks more like her daddy, with black hair and brown eyes. 

Notes:
  • I've been wanting to use Wren on a sim for so long! I was so happy Maia and Ethan had a girl and that she ended up with RED HAIR! You guys all know how much I love red hair. I knew Maia and Ethan had the genes to produce a little redhead and was a bit bummed when Willow and River came out with boring old brown hair. ;) I don't know if I've had a redheads with brown eyes before. 
  • I was hoping Leslie and Dominic would have at least one girl, so I was happy to see Oscar and Stella. Stella's middle name is after Dominic's grandmother Arianna and Oscar's is after his stepgrandfather Liam. Anyway, so happy to have these new babies in the hood!

  1. Yay, I guess the sexes right!

    Hooray for a redhead! I always get super excited too when I get redhead (like Jordan).

    1. Ha, well done then! I love my sim redheads. Even though I get many more than I did early on, the novelty has not worn off. :)

  2. Maia and Ethan stopped being recessive gene slackers! Good job!

    I also think the twins are adorable.

    1. I know, right? 'Bout time they contributed the correct genes to the pool!

      It's a bit early to tell what the twins will look like yet but they have good looking parents, so I'm sure they'll be gorgeous. :)

    1. Hopefully! I'm resisting the urge to age them up to check, lol!

  4. Aww Wren is an adorable name, it's a favorite of mine, and I think it fits perfectly for Maia to name a daughter that! And red head! Too sweet, looking forward to seeing her aging up, and love the brown eyes with the red hair.

    Arianna, I remember her, that's my daughter's name, so she was naturally a favorite of mine. ;) Oscar and Stella are sweet names for them, I've been very excited to see what they would have, and really like that it came out with one of each.

    Excited to see all these babies age up, and to see Leslie and Dominic as parents.

    1. Right after I named Wren, I noticed some townie/NPC walking around with the name. She's getting changed to something boring, lol! I'm letting the Novaks lay claim to this name.

      I remember you telling me Arianna was your daughter's name! I had picked Arianna's daughter out for Stella's middle name a while back, in Sullivan 1.0, but I changed my mind at the last minute to use Liam. I don't know why I hadn't thought of it before then but I think Dominic would want to name his kids after both his grandparents (step-grandfather, technically, in Liam's case).

  5. Yay for red hair and yay for another girl! I really like the name Wren. I don't hear it very often. I bet Willow is so excited to have a little sister.

    And I super excited for Leslie and Dominic on their baby boy and girl! And it's always fun when the boy takes after the mom and the girl takes after the dad. Can't wait to see how these 2 are with are with Oscar and Stella. Very nice tribute with their names.

    1. I don't hear Wren too often either. But it's quite a sweet name and definitely fits Ethan and Maia's family. :)

      I like that too. It's fun to see the features on the opposite gender. Though of course, for all we know, Stella might be a clone of Leslie with Dominic's colouring. But that's interesting to see as well. I'm keen to see how they turn out.

  6. These babies were long-awaited! Hehe. It's nice to see little Wren is a red head! I guess that's worth the wait.
    The twins are adorable as well, so glad they had one of each :P and I love the names Oscar and Stella and the fact you honoured Arianna and Liam.
    Can't wait for them to age up! All 3 of them are going to be adorable if their siblings/parents are anything to go by...

    1. Ha, yes. I just checked how long they were pregnant for and this was almost a real time pregnancy! Maia got pregnant in August last year and Leslie wouldn't have been too long before or after that.

      I'm glad you like the names. I was happy Dominic and Leslie had a boy and a girl, because I didn't like the second boy and girl names I had picked out as much as I liked the first! I'm very excited to watch them grow up, along with Wren (and of course Cole Hamilton, born last month).

  7. Yay for another redhead! I'm the same way, always hoping that those recessive genes will appear in the offspring. Also, I guessed right! Can't wait to see what these little ones look like. :)

    1. I waited three generations for my first redhead and then they were very rare for a long time after that. I only just got my first redheaded boy a little while ago (Theo Nihill). So I still get really excited when I see those little red eyebrows. :)

  8. Welcome little ones!ยต

    When you posted that teaser I though Maia and Ethan would have a boy :)
    Wren fits so well with Willow and River, and fits Maia and Ethan so well :)
    And a red haired girl, I'm so excited about that, I have way too many black haired sims running around, so I'm happy with any other haircolor I can get :)

    I kind of think it's nice that Dominic and Leslie have a boy and a girl!

    I'm already looking forward to seeing these kids grow up!

    1. I think so far, LC has been the only one to correctly guess the genders. Or at least, the only one who told me!

      I have fun picking out names for Maia and Ethan's kids. :) My idea for a boy was Rowan (after the tree) but I like Wren much more, so I was glad they had a girl. And with red hair! Icing on the cake! I was very happy Leslie and Dominic had a boy and a girl too. I have a slight imbalance going on with the babies/toddlers right now and Wren and Stella have corrected it just a tad. :)

  9. Yay, red hair! I love it when those recessive genes take over. Wren is such a pretty name, I don't think I've heard it before but that's obviously because I live in a non-english speaking country. I guess I need to spend more time on those baby name sites, lol.

    I'm hoping Oscar grows up to look like Leslie and Stella takes after Dominic because it's always fun to see the parents' familiar features on the opposite sex.

    1. I've only seen Wren on baby name sites myself! And only ever as a suggestion or possibility - I don't think I've seen anyone use it. So I figured Maia and Ethan would - it seems to suit their style.

      I'm hoping for the same thing! Especially seeing I still don't know what a female Dominic would look like. I thought Audrey was a female Dominic but I gender swapped her when I was re-adding her to the hood and she's definitely not. So if Stella turns out looking like her daddy, it'll be very interesting. :)
