You say it's your birthday, August 2038

August 2038 brings with it the first birthdays of two little girls, the first being Natalie Clarke!

Natalie's parents, Aaron and Calvin, adopted her in September last year when she was just 5 weeks old.

She looks just a tiny bit different now!

Natalie shares her birthday month with Phoebe Jacobson, who is also turning 1.

Miles and Matilda still haven't decided whether Phoebe will ever get a brother or sister. Phoebe is quite an adorable little munchkin, so perhaps that will sway them towards having another?

Notes:
  • No toddler pics of Matilda, because she never was one! She was adopted as a child. Plenty of toddler pics of Calvin and Aaron, for all the good it would do with Natalie. She obviously does not share any of their genes. ;)
  • Even without comparison pics though, I'd have to say Phoebe mostly favours Miles. That's definitely not Matilda's mouth and I don't think it's her chin either. I'm curious to see what she looks like as she gets older - she might have inherited more from Matilda than it appears.

  2. Natalie is adorable! When your sims adopt how does it work. Do you create parents for the babies and then give them up for adoption or do you just call the social worker and have them adopt that way? If so do you use default replacement faces or do surgery on them? I've always been interested! Phoebe is so sweet and totally not what I was expecting her to look like. That little mouth is so cute though.

    1. Well, with Natalie, she was just randomly generated. I do have default facial templates though. Or at least, I thought I did. Natalie looks seriously Maxis-y to me! Sarah and Sylvia are my only adoptees who had actual biological parents. The rest were created by me/downloaded and then put up for adoption.

      I was expecting Phoebe to look a bit more like Matilda. That tiny mouth must be from Miles. ;) She's a cutie though. I think she'll be a really beautiful girl when she grows up.

  3. I think Phoebe will definitely be beautiful when she grows up. I'm not sure there's any other outcome with Matilda for a Mom. :) And Natalie is cute, even if she is suspiciously Maxis looking. Hopefully her features will age well, they aren't too extreme so she'll probably be average anyway. (At least she's better looking than some of my kids. Just wait til I have Catalina's profile up, eek. I don't think anyone's eye sockets should be that deep.)

    1. Phoebe definitely has very good genes on her side! Miles isn't so bad looking either.

      I think Natalie will end up average at the very least. I'm not too worried about her at all. I'm just a bit disappointed that my facial replacements don't seem to be working! Sim kids can definitely end up looking pretty scary. You have me quite curious about your Catalina now!

  4. Phoebe just might have some undercover genes from her mommy. It happens like that, might not see it truly until she's a teen.

    They are both cuties!

    1. Very true. I thought Declan was a clone of Finn, until he aged to child and I saw his chin from the side - definitely got that from Victoria, lol! So we'll see what happens as Phoebe gets older.

  5. Cuties!! Phoebe is adorable, and totally reminds me of Miles, and Natalie is equally cute, with her fair hair and pale complexion. Looking forward to seeing their personalities blossom.

    1. Natalie has my favourite kind of Sim personality as well - very shy and very nice - so I'm looking forward to playing her as she gets older. Phoebe's going to be an altogether different kind of Sim but she'll be fun too. She reminds me of Miles as well and also, oddly, of Quinn from "Daria". It's that tiny mouth, I think!

  6. They are both such cute girls! I'm sure they are going to break many hearts when they are older!
    I'm already looking forward to seeing them grow up!

    1. Well, we'll have to wait and see! They are polar opposites in terms of personality, so they should be lots of fun to watch, whatever happens.

    1. Phoebe and Natalie are just about opposites in terms of personality, so it should be very interesting indeed!

  8. Aww Natalie is cute! At first I didn't remember who she was LOL! I can't wait to see what she looks like since she won't look like her parents, obviously :).

    And Phoebe is just as adorable as I thought Matilda and Miles' child would look!! That little nose and those cheeks! I really hope they have more kids.

    1. Natalie's arrival was sort of low key, I guess. It didn't take place in Aaron and Calvin's update, so it's probably easier to forget her. I didn't take as many pics of her as I did with Amy. Amy was already a toddler and more interesting .:)

      Phoebe is totally adorable. She's got good genes on her side. ;) I'd love them to have another kid (a mini-Matilda!) but we'll see what they have to say about it.
