You say it's your birthday, June 2043

Round 36: June 2043 (Winter)


Chloe Hamilton is now at the tail end of her pregnancy and is spending her days at home with son Cole. 




She definitely finds herself looking forward to Cole's afternoon naps! This pregnancy has been very tiring for Chloe. Baby Hamilton is due in August.


It's Mason Novak's first birthday!




Mason loves being outside and playing with the family cat, Romeo. 

Extras:


Okay, here's a nice, straight-on picture of Mason.

There's hardly any point at all in posting a picture of his mother Hope...


...because he pretty obviously resembles his father Malcolm very closely. 

Notes:
  • As I type this, I haven't done Mason's profile yet. I'll get to it but I am rushing this before work, so I didn't have the time to do it at the moment.
  • Geez, did Mason inherit anything at all from Hope, lol? I think he has her chin, as Malcolm's chin was already very prominent as a toddler and Mason's doesn't look like that. But otherwise, I think he might be all Malcolm! Oh, and the blue eyes - he got those from Hope too. 
  • I'm going to try to keep up this pace with the updates but Fallout 4 is downloading as we speak, so by the time you read this, I'll be playing! So the next update might be out a little bit later than what you've got used to after the last month but is hopefully not much longer than a week away. :)

  1. I can't wait for Chloe and Zane to have their baby! I'm undesided about them having a boy or a girl. Do you have a preference for them?

    Mason is adorable! He really does looka lot like his father, but he is quite good-looking so that's ok :)

    1. Mason is pretty much exactly what I expected he'd look like. I was hoping for more of a mix but I just had a feeling Malcolm possessed some very strong genes!

      As for Chloe and Zane, no, I don't have a preference yet! Maybe a girl, seeing they've already got Cole. But I'll be happy with either this time around. :)

  2. Fallout 4 looks pretty cool, have fun! Mason is cute-- I do love Hope's freckles. Do you do your own genes for freckles or does the skin tone include genetics?

    1. I'm having a ton of fun with Fallout 4, though I did drag myself away on the weekend to play Adelaide and Veronica. That update will be up in a little bit. :)

      I love Hope's freckles too - Mason only inherited a very, very light dusting though. I have a genetic system for them, based on the system another simmer created for TS3. The freckles I use are face masks. I didn't want to add freckled skin tones, because skin tones are such massive files. Even if I did want to add them, I would want the same variations in skin tone that I have now and I've never seen a skin set with nine tones, each with freckles and without. I've also never seen great freckles for dark skin but these ones I use magically work just as well on dark sims as on fairer ones. :) My dream is to have a freckle overlay box, so I can have full body freckles but if it never happens, I'm cool with my masks.

    2. I thought I remembered you using a genetics system for freckles... and the ones you have do look great!

    3. Thanks! I can have a bit more variety with the freckles facially than I could with skintones as well. Sims who inherit heavy freckles in my game get two different face masks layered on top of each other...and I have like, 30 of those! So that's a plus.

  3. I'm looking forward to seeing what Chloe has! She's getting pretty close! And Mason is adorable! And yeah, not so much Hope. He was one of my favorite babies in your game, I just loved seeing him in other updates and in family portraits. Glad that you are enjoying Fallout 4, I've heard good things all around, I'm hoping to get to it by Christmas break.

    1. Next birthdays will be a big one - Chloe's baby, plus Rebecca and Julia will both move into the second trimester. :) Exciting!

      Yeah, I loved Mason as a baby too. It was the hair, I think! The game picked it for him and it picked perfectly. :)

  4. Mason is such a little cutie pie. Too bad he didn't get those freckles from Hope because that would've made him even cuter.

    So excited to see what Chloe and Zane have! Cole is adorable so I'm sure which ever they have the new baby will be adorable as well.

    1. I would have loved Mason to get the freckles, but oh well. Nathan and Rebecca are expecting and any kid they have has absolutely no chance of escaping freckles! ;)

      Chloe's birth is coming up so soon. I'm quite excited, though I still don't have a preference.

  5. Mason is very cute! I always enjoy viewing your birthday posts to see which parent's features are the most dominant. :)

    1. I can't tell you how excited I get about birthdays, lol! The posts are criminally easy to put together and they're so much fun to boot - what's not to love?
