Aww, bye Don and congrats Bunny.! Lexi being trapped behind the couch was pretty funny. I say cheat Buffy's finally thing to be done. She's been trying for a long time with no luck. There is no reason to make her start a whole new aspiration. That would suck for her.
Overall, I think Lexi would drive me nuts. I cannot handle kids that act that way. Not a single bit.
Spoiler:
I am leaning to the cheat for Buffy because she was going to try the gardening aspiration to see if that would go quickly and can't get it to stop raining so she can get the plants dry enough to have to water (10 plants) and I am just about to pull my hair out. Since it is a true bug it would fall under game saving I think. I actually considered whether I could kill Buffy - then I wouldn't have to complete her aspiration :fight: I may take her back one more time - when Olly finishes his aspiration - and that will be the last time. Of course then she still has to sleep in a tent for 5 days for the last tier and master herbalism, which she has quit working on. HAHA
I was laughing so hard when I realized Lexi was trapped. I don't know why Xia picked her up and then put her down back there. And it sure looked like there was enough room for her to walk out. Reminded my of Sims 1 and Sims 2 when they couldn't walk places unless there were large squares around things. I am curious to see what personality Paige develops.

All I can say is that Lexi is such a handful :O I thought I've had some bad toddlers but I think Lexi takes the crown of that tittle haha.

Another update - actually a fairly long one for me
2.4 - Finally!
Spoiler:
Lexi was a lot of fun to play as a toddler. She was always giving me something to work with. But yeah she was a definite handful.

Spoiler:
Lexi's Universe. How awesome is that. I didn't think to make a club for friends until the triplets were teens. Ugh.
Lndsay getting pregnant and Orion not crying about it, that was super funny. My mod keeps giving me glutton/gloomy, which I guess is better than hates children.
Outdoor Enthusiast, did that once for the Drifter challenge. What a horrible aspiration. Congrats to Buffy for getting it done and nabbing a man.
Twins! At least it wasn't triplets. I'll be keeping an eye on Lexi and Paige. I can't decide who I like more yet.

I have posted the next chapter and I have gone ahead and posted the poll for generation 2. The poll will be open for awhile as the potentials are still children (toddlers if we count the normal skin toddlers). But I wanted the link to the poll so I went ahead and opened it up. The poll allows for revotes and I will be updating it as the potentials gain new traits and aspirations.

I got back and forth on which one I like at any given moment. Sadly at the moment I actually like Rachel the best LOL

Spoiler:
I'm finally caught up! Lexi had me rolling with how purely defiant and toddler-like she was! My mouth hit the floor several times. The rest of the girls seem like cake-walks compared to her! :lol: Lexi's universe indeed!
I'm going to be picking between the two blue-skinned girls, mostly because I want you to earn those points for the skin bonus! So far, I like Paige more, and I've selected her as of right now, but we'll see if that changes.
I love, love, love the younger girls, especially Rachel, but they're all still young and I'm naturally pulled to cute toddlers.
I can't believe how fast you're turning out this challenge, Teresa! Give me some of that go-go juice!

I already have my next two challenges lined up - I plan on having this one done by the end of August so I can do the wonder child challenge for the SimNaNoWriMo (I think I got that right) in September - and then I am going to start a 100 baby challenge with the wonder kid as the matriarch. Of course I am starting back to school on Aug 28 so everything might come to a screeching halt as I adjust to 4 classes on top of full time work (I have really enjoyed this summer now that I think about it LOL)
Spoiler:
This is the silly generation, 3/4 of the toddlers rolled silly so they are getting the funny faces. Lexi really got the pure defiant faces where the rest of them are getting sweeter faces no matter what they do. I am crossing my fingers they don't get the "hates children" trait like the last generation though as they start growing up since Orion has been staying home with them most of the time.
I still haven't chosen between Lexi and Paige. With Orion I knew I was going with him because he had the eyes and that gave him the boost over Olly. But once I can stop focusing so much on the twins and back on the older girls I think I will get a better feel for which one I prefer and then I will vote also.

Most of the vampire aspirations are super easy. I can't express how over vampires I am right now.
Rhett is adorable! I am crossing my fingers that you get your triplets!

Got up this morning and did some editing on the last three updates - yesterday was productive. My husband heads back to his mother's today around lunch so I am hoping for more of the same today. I doubt I will get three chapters out but maybe two. Probably one posted today, one played today and posted tomorrow evening. I can see the end of the challenge coming and since I start school tomorrow, I am trying to get as much done today. Then I have a 3-day holiday weekend next weekend so my goal is to hopefully get the challenge finished. It all depends on how today goes :)
