Babies 64 and 65: Happy Halloween!

Thanks AevalM AKA Skye Everard for the Formal to a T(ie) top! I'll be sure to use it on some of Violet's  daughters!
 Skye and Lida's birthday's came around quickly. Skye went first. She got all the same features as me except for my eye color.
 Lida got Grim's hair color but other than that got most of my features too.
 I decided we needed a break from the hustle-and-bustle of Neverglade and we set off for Riverview, my hometown. We snagged a gorgeous, 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom house for a cheap price and settled in quickly. As always, the people of Riverview accepted us and warmly welcomed us into their community.
 I started setting up halloween decorations later that day. I carved a pumpkin with the kids and put up a big ghost light.
 Then, the kids got their costumes ready. Marisol was a princess.
 Jack was an astronaut.
Tyler was a dinosaur.
 Lia was a prince.
 And last but not least Blaire was a race car driver.

 I made an early dinner of autumn salad so the kids could head out trick-or-treating before it got too dark out.
 After dinner, I handed each of the quints a pillow case and they bolted out the door.
Jack: Wait up, guys! *huff, huff*
 Around 9:30-10 ish the kids sauntered in the door with huge bags of candy.
Mari: We're home!!
Tyler: Yea, we got so much candy!
Me: Okay, set it on the dining table and then its off to bed!
 The kids dumped their candy on the table and got into bed.
 After going through each of the quint's bags of candy I set the twins in their cribs.
Me: Goodnight, baby girl!
Lida: Nigh nigh, mama!
 The next morning I had some leftover autumn salad for breakfast.
 Jack really liked his astronaut costume and wore it to breakfast.
Me: Do you really think thats appropriate, Jack?
Jack: I don't know..
Me: After breakfast, you take that thing off.
Jack rolled his eyes: Whatever, ma.
 I gave the twins their bottles before I started the ever-so-anticipated chores.
 I washed the breakfast dishes and waved the quints on to the bus.

 Time to look for the next baby daddy! I chose this unique man named Don Tester. He was obviously a berry sim. I hope his kids get most of his unique features.
 When the quints got home from school, they were on their knees begging me to let them age up. Literally. So I allowed them, and this gorgeous teen emerged from those sparkles that we all know so well; its Lia!
 Next was Jack, still sporting that blonde mohawk hairstyle.
 Lookin' good, Mari!
 Tyler certainly matured over time.
 Blaire began to explore the more rebellious side of life and chopped her pretty hair off and styled it the same as Jack.
 The kids were all lined up to get on the slide. It was apparent that I needed to get more, and fast.
 Jack and Ty were fond of the see-saw.
 I still don't get any help with the chores, even with 5 teens in the house. Lord have mercy..
 The girls were crashed in their beds, and I couldn't help but notice that they were really attached to some creepy dolls one of my friends sent me for them.
 The quints off to their first day of high school :')
 I scooped up Skye.
Me: Skye, baby, do you know what today is?
Skye: Ya, mama! Birthday today!
 So I bought some cakes and the twins rushed to age up. Skye became very tomboy-ish and chopped all her hair off and never bothers to brush it. It took a lot of convincing to get her into even that top, believe me.
 Lida on the other hand was much more girly, taking extra time every morning to style her hair and pick out the perfect dress.
 They may be twins, but those two are about as different as two people can get; Skye has red hair, Lida has black hair. Skye is extremely boyish, and Lida is very girly. Skye likes waffles while Lida prefers a muffin made in her toy oven in the morning. Its hard to find two features that those girls have the same.
 After school, I heard loud foot steps coming up the front walk way, and it definitely didn't sound like just 5 pairs of footsteps. I looked out the big picture window in front of the house and saw a huge pack of teens. Oh lord almighty, they must have brought them for a birthday get together or whatever..
 So the teens were permitted to celebrate their birthday and embark on their journey into young adulthood.
 What a pretty young lady Lia turned out to be.
 Jack became much more serious and sensible.
 Blaire kept her cropped hair but I think it suits her personality.
 Ty is very strong and loves the gym. He has no problems getting the girls. It remains a mystery to me how he became such a ladies man when in high school he was constantly beat on.
 Last but not least it was Mari. Marisol grew out her hair and is very dramatic. She recently decided on becoming a broadway actress.
 At home, it was lonely, just me and the twins. It was weird being in a quiet house without the quints constantly bickering.
 It wasn't long before I started showing and needed to take a nap because of the exhaustion of pregnancy.
 The twins were anything but tired. They always were full of energy and absolutely loved the fact that they finally had the slide to themselves.
 When I woke up morning had already rolled around and I missed the girls getting on the bus. I got straight to chores so they could come home to a clean house.
 I finished quickly and decided to read the paper. 7 people had died yesterday from a plane crash to Shang Simla, China. But on the bright side one of my old high school friends named Julie Springwater just gave birth to multi gendered triplets named Riona, Tess and Saylor.
 I sat outside on the see saw by myself for a bit just contemplating life. The baby(s) were constantly kicking and I was stressed beyond belief with housework and such so I cherished any moments of bliss I could get in this house.

 When the girls got home, Skye was chattering away about Cuddles, her best friend.
Me: Cuddles? Who's that?
Skye laughed and replied: Cuddles is my best friend in the whole world. See, he's right there!
Skye pointed to empty space.
Me: Thats nice dear.
 As I walked away to start supper I noticed she started talking to what at first seemed like the door but she didn't pause when the door shut.
 Skye: Cuddles, don't you hate school?
I was starting to think Skye was being a bit delusional.
 I made some goopy carbonara for supper, but even when I was deep in focus from cooking I couldn't help but notice Lida was hitting air with a pillow.
 ..
 Me: Christ, Lida, what the hell are you doing in there?
Lida: Playing with Puzzle! What does it look like?
 Skye was outside trying to make a potion so she could prove to me this Cuddles guy is real. Hmm.
 The goopy carbonara failed so I just made some autumn salad.
 The girls are so obedient.. right after supper they did their homework.
 I headed off to bed after because this pregnancy was really tiring me out.
 Skye crashed in the boys room, of course.Oh well, I just let her, theres not really a point in dragging her out of there now.
 In  the morning, Lida immediately started playing with her old doll. Wow, I haven't seen that in a while.
 I made pancakes for breakfast as a special treat.
 It was Saturday and it was just a nice, lazy day. Everything was calm and quiet as I sat by the fire reading the paper and Skye napped while Lida played upstairs. Sometimes I wish my life could be like this forever but with doing the challenge I knew it couldn't. Not yet.
 The day flew by and soon I had to get up from my comfortable seat in the living room to make dinner.
 I ate outside with Skye who loved the outdoors.
 Lida ate inside because, being the complete opposite from her sister, hated the outdoors.
 The girls did their homework after supper so they wouldn't have to do it later and headed to bed after. What a life.
 I followed the girls good examples and headed to bed early as well. I had sweet dreams and slept like a log undisturbed because I knew tomorrow I would be giving birth to another precious baby.
 I woke up in a great mood the next day and made breakfast.
 Lida finished up her homework before we all sat down to eat.
The three of us talked and ate happily. Sometimes I am happy that its only girls in the house but at the same time I really want boys.
 My favorite part of today by far.. *cough cough*
 Oh wait, I like this more..
 Why are there so many chores?
 Well, there was a few high lights to my day..  the girls got to age up!
 Make a wish :)
 Lida is still very girly and loves fashion.
 Next up is Skye!
 Skye is not as boyish as she was before but is still anything but girly.
 After the girls explore their new lives in teenage hood for a bit I leave them downstairs and go to bed.
 I don't rest for long before the contractions start!
 Soon, I welcome into the family baby 64, Amber Chrysler, my purple skinned berry baby..
...and Amber's twin sister, baby 65, Paisley Chrysler! Another berry baby!

Hey guys, I know I haven't posted in a while but please take a moment and gift me something here. It means a lot! -Violet
