You say it's your birthday, Summer 2021

Evan and Ione have only been married for three months and already they're facing a move and the impending birth of twins! Yes, that's right - come winter, Evan and Ione will be the proud parents of two new babies!

They had hoped to be able to squeeze a crib in somewhere in their tiny house, at least for a little while but a new house has now become a necessity. One crib might have fit in their current house but two definitely won't!

Round 25 ROS

Yay, I don't have to kill anyone! Two rounds in a row! I'll probably have to kill like 8 people next round now. :(

1. Change of heart: change your turn-ons to match the Sim you are most attracted to, whether that's your spouse or not... Hopefully, this works out in favour of this Sim's partner!
   
2. PMS - annoy the next walk by 3 times Depending on who the walk-by is, this could end up being very appropriate!
   
3. Weekly night in - poker, movie, sports, pool, chess, LAN party - Not sure what I've got planned here but I think it will be fun, at least for the Sim!
   
4. Travel for 1-2 years - You can always tell which ones are my ROSs, because of how boringly they're written! I only just added this one the other day though, so give me a break! I'm going to have this Sim do a trip similar to what Joanna did, where he/she is away for an extended period of time. I'm still thinking over exactly what I'll do but I won't go for the mementos this time, seeing I've done that. A working holiday, maybe? I'll think up something!
   
5. Fire! Place two intense fires on the lot. - Fingers crossed this isn't a deadly fire because apart from an elder, I actually don't have to kill anyone this round! And I really love this Sim and have plans for them!
   
6. Cheapskate (take someone out on date and skip out on bill) - I'll probably do this as an outing instead but it'll be a fun, easy diversion!
   

Round 24 Outtakes

Is it just me, or is Finn kind of rocking the kilt? Or, at least, rocking it better than Brandon Lillard does?

Narrated by Jonas Lachance

Tatiana is now the principal of Sullivan Primary School, which the whole family is really proud of, no one more than Tatiana herself. Her grandmother was the principal of the high school, back when Tatiana and I were there, and I think it's always been a goal of hers to get to that level one day.
