Ah, the best of both worlds! A baby daddy and a reaper daddy! Tessie and Grim really are so cute together.

I can tell by Erina's face in the last picture that I like her already! Welcome, final heir!

So glad Blur and Ericka got to reunite so quickly. Sweeties.

And that well's name is definitely Welliam. Definitely.

Ahhh!  I had so much to catch up on.  And you've already got the final heir!  The look on Erina's face says it all!  Don't worry, little one.  I'm sure your Great Grandpa Wade will take care of you.

Tessie chose a great nose baby daddy.  Can't wait to see what happens next.

Poor Erina! The entire dynasty rests on her tiny shoulders, she has a crazy mother, and too many great-grandparents.

When Welliam first appeared, I thought Tessie was going to wish for a love interest.
(Is that even a thing? Obviously, I only use the well for career promotions, LOL!)
Rofl, poor lovesick, romantic Arun! He's moved to tears during closet woohoo but then gets kicked to the curb with a "Toodles." *sheds a croc tear

Noooo, Pippin!  You don't get to virtually ignore Wade for most of the updates then Tessie gets his name wrong! #JusticeforWade

Welcome to your new home, wee Erina. (She looks terrified!)

Hilarious update, Watcher. :D
Don't worry.  Wade gets more attention (even if not screentime) in this update.
Yes, Erina's terrified expression was great!  She made horrified faces through a decent chunk of her nooboohood for some reason.
Yeah, Arun was a fun character to write.  Wouldn't be a fun character to be, but definitely fun to write  ;=)

Ah, the best of both worlds! A baby daddy and a reaper daddy! Tessie and Grim really are so cute together.

And that well's name is definitely Welliam. Definitely.
I adore Tessie and Grim!  And of course, I enjoy Tessie's great command of names.  Gabe and Welliam might disagree with that opinion...

Ahhh!  I had so much to catch up on.  And you've already got the final heir!  The look on Erina's face says it all!  Don't worry, little one.  I'm sure your Great Grandpa Wade will take care of you.

Tessie chose a great nose baby daddy.  Can't wait to see what happens next.
Yep.  So excited that we're at the final heir and so terrified that something may go wrong!  I'll be massively back-up saving and double-checking everything from here on out!
I'm excited to see if Erina gets Arun's nose!

Poor Erina! The entire dynasty rests on her tiny shoulders, she has a crazy mother, and too many great-grandparents.
It's a good thing Erina has so many grandparents.  That child was never hungry and never had a dirty diaper for more than a minute or two.  Of course, her grandpa Wade carried a good chunk of that load.  He's my super support Sim.

Welcome generation 8
Erina, good luck on completing the dynasty for your family
Thanks!  I'm so excited for Erina to get older and to see how her personality manifests.  I always have ideas, but the Sims help direct me with how that plays out.

Omg! That was amazing! Of course Grim would go to the hospital. I about fell outta my chair laughing at this.
Wow.  I certainly hope the laughs made the chair-fall-inflicted bruises worth it  ;=)

Thanks, everyone, for the wonderful comments and encouragement!

Pippin:  We return to the Took household where little Erina...



Pippin:  still looks pretty uncertain about things.
Tessie:  She has a face!  Look at her making the face!!
Pippin:  Yes.  That's...something.  Meantime, Abernathy goes out on a date with Antonia.



Antonia:  Oh, Abernathy.  You're the most fairly adequate guy I know!
Abernathy:  That's right baby, and...
Antonia:  K.  I'm tired now.



Abernathy:  O....kay...
Pippin:  And of course, he simply waits patiently for his beauty to awaken.



Abernathy:  Well, hello there, hot stuff!
Myra:  Oooooo, most men merely bring me flowers.  You shower me with them!
Abernathy:  Maybe I could also shower you with kisses?



Myra:  Oh my!
Abernathy:  And maybe you'd like to come back to my place for a makeover?
Myra:  ...yeah.  Yes.  That sounds...nice.



Myra:  Soooooo, how do I look?
Abernathy:  Irresistable!!



Pippin:  Wait.  Did you just leave poor Antonia at the restaurant?
Abernathy:  I ordered her meal to go first!
Myra:  You are such a gentleman!
Abernathy:  You know it, darlin'.
Pippin:  (facepalm) Anyway, there was one couple that was absolutely having no issues of infidelity.



Tessie:  Is it me?  Am I the couple?
Pippin:  ....you're at least half of it.
Tessie:  YES!!!
Pippin:  And it's possible I was being sarcastic since Erina is not biologically Grim's.
Tessie:  Hahaha!  I don't know what "biologically" means!
Pippin:  Of course you don't.  And with the painting finished...



Pippin:  the painting of the photo of the Grim Reaper finds its place on the Wall of Wives.
Wade:  I thought we were renaming that?
Pippin:  Eh, Grim'll adjust.
Grim:  No I won't!
Pippin:  Anyway, we progress through the exciting days of nooboohood and finally...



Pippin:  toddler Erina!!
Milo:  Happy birthday, little one!
Pippin:  We got the notice that she was ready to age up right around the time that Tessie was leaving for work or while she was already at work or some such, but I wanted to jump start potty training.
Tessie:  And I didn't want to be potty trained!!
Pippin:  The potty training was for...you know what?  Never mind. 
Tessie:  Deal!
Pippin:  And of course, Tessie rushed right home to be with her toddler daughter.



Pippin:  She did, actually, but shortly thereafter, she went out to see the non-biological father of her child.
Tessie:  And she's got your nose, and eyes, and mouth...
Grim:  No, sweetie, we've been over this.  I have facial features, the hood just keeps people from seeing them.  It makes me look scarier.  Our daughter did not steal my face.
Tessie:  Well, she might have...



Pippin:  Oh look!  Danica is at the door!
Saanvi:  And I suppose you're showing her because she's your favorite of our daughters?
Pippin:  Psh, no.  I'm showing her as point of comparison because...



Pippin:  Jacquelyn is such a cutey-pie and is probably going to be a super gorgeous young lady!
Saanvi:  You are so shallow.
Pippin:  Maybe I'm just interested in genetics, thank you!



Pippin:  Awww, look at Tessie being such a good mommy!



Pippin:  AAAHHHH!!!  Never mind!!  Saanvi!!  Wade!!!  Somebody get in there!!
Wade:  You know, Tessie, Erina would probably love to have an airplane ride.



Pippin:  Whooo.  Much safer.  Thanks, Wade.
Wade:  That's what I'm here for.
Pippin:  And Tessie eventually helped out with the potty training.



Tessie:  See, Gnomekins?  The potty is super great!
Erina:  Pobby sudagate?
Tessie:  Yep!  Potty's super great!  Well, see ya!  Gotta paint!
Erina:  Pobby sudagate!!



Erina:  Pobby!!!  Sudagate sudagate!!!  Pobby sudagate!!!
Pippin:  Ugh.  Wade?
Wade:  On it!
Pippin:  And while Wade, the immortal support Sim, takes care of young Erina...



Pippin:  Chantons works on Tessie's portrait.
Tessie:  Hey, didn't I used to have a baby?
Pippin:  Ummm, you mean Erina?
Tessie:  No, that's a toddler.  I had a baby.
Pippin:  Ummm...that's still Erina?  She's a toddler now?
Tessie:  Ah, so the toddler is her secret identity.  She must be Superman-Girl!
Pippin:  (facepalm) Anyway, we're almost up to Erina's child birthday and Tessie's finished everything other than hitting elderhood, but she did get one step closer.



Tessie:  Oooooooo, fire!
Pippin:  Wade!!!
Wade:  On it!
Pippin:  And if we can keep Tessie from burning the place to the ground, we're in good shape.  Take it, Blur!



Blurange Blur:  I feel good
                                I knew that I would
                                I feel good
                                I knew that I would
                                So good! 
                                So good!
                                I got you!

Erina:  Pobby!!!
Pippin:  Wade!!!

Loved the shot of Tessie throwing Erina in the air. It's a wonder our toddlers don't spit up on their parents, the way the ones in TS2 did.

Awww, poor Wade. Not a single screenshot of the Took's most fantastic support sim! (;_;)

Wooooo, Tessie's now an adult? And Erina's an almost-child? Pippin, I'm just counting the days!
Drive safely. :D

Awww. Grim makes the spouse wall! One of these things is not like the others, but he still looks great!
Loved Tessie postulating that Erina has Grims eyes, nose, and mouth, and that's why he doesn't have any. How very precious and morbid!
So glad the disembodied voice of Wade is taking care of things and keeping everyone in line. What would we do without you?
Happy Birthday, Tessie! Looking good, girl! You got this!

You're welcome!  Always delighted to share a musical earworm  ;=)

Wow!  I didn't join the Sims franchise until 3, so I missed the spitting up.

Yep, the time is dragging by yet going quickly.  The weird stage of being this close to finished, yet having so much time before Erina starts actually working on heir things and advancing us towards that finish line!

I so loved having Grim end up with Tessie.  It just conveniently happened, but that's one of the things I love about playing the Sims!  So many random, happy accidents.  Bob Ross would have loved this game!

We rejoin the Took household where an exciting moment has finally arrived!
Erina:  Pobby sudagate?



Pippin:  No, little one, it's not a super great potty.  It's cake time!



Pippin:  She's so adorable!
Tessie:  Just like her mommy! 
Pippin:  Indeed! 
Tessie:  I must meet her adorable mommy!
Pippin:  Umm, it's you...
Tessie:  What's me?
Pippin:  You're...you know what, never mind.  Anyway, young Erina ends up being super-close to her great great (insert more greats here) grandpa.



Gaivan:  And the...because troops...that have...and rally...
Erina:  Yeah they do!
Pippin:  And her lots-of-greats grandma...



Pippin:  has helped ensure that she'll have plenty of friend options!
Saanvi:  It's a sacrifice I make for my precious little lots-of-greats granddaughter!
Pippin:  Mhm.  Such a sacrifice.  Anyway, it's nice that young Erina has such wonderful and strong female role models.



Pippin:  Wonderful indeed.



Erina:  Awww, you guys are cute.  Well, I'm gonna go play now.



Erina:  Lady Erina, princess of the pirates, sets sail for unknown shores aboard the Adequate Ship Lollipop.
Pippin:  Oh really?
Erina:  And after fending off the tyrannical forces of Lord Butterpants...
Pippin:  What?
Erina:  she decides to take on a crew.



Erina:  Welcome aboard, mateys.  Look sharp, lest ye fall prey to the Skyhawk of Twiddlethumb Peak!
Jacqueline (the blonde):  Ummm, okay.
Krista (the redhead):  I be keepin' a lookout, sir!
Erina:  That's Captain Princess sir to you!
Alondra (the black-haired):  ...okay...
Pippin:  For those of you keeping score at home, Jacqueline and Alondra are twin daughters of Gaivan and Saanvi and Krista is Abernathy's daughter with Antonia (the redhead with Izumi hair).
Erina:  ...and so, having successfully piloted her ship down the waterfall and outrunning the Stuttering Giants of T-t-t-t-t-twin P-p-p-p-pickle Island, Captain Princess Lady Erina scans the horizon...



Erina:  looking for her next adventure.
Pippin:  You know, you're really good at making up stories, Erina.
Erina:  They may just be stories to you, but they're just an average day in the life of Captain Princess Lady Erina.
Pippin:  ...okay...meantime, Tessie continues painting. 



Pippin:  Why are you staring so intently, Tessie?
Tessie:  ...I can't remember if this is something I painted or a real lamp...
Pippin:  Well, I guess we'll have to avoid realism paintings from now on.  Anyway, young Erina is not only a good  storyteller, but also an excellent student.



Wade:  I'm flattered that you wanted me to help you with your project, Captain Princess Lady Erina, but why didn't you ask your mom?
Erina:  Have you met my mom?
Wade:  Fair point!
Pippin:  And when she's not spending time with her parents of varying levels of grand...



Pippin:  she's spending time with her crew.
Alondra:  I don't know why the park keeps getting so messy!
Krista:  ...oh.  Right.  Yeah.  I wonder.



Erina:  And so, Captain Princess Lady Erina and her first mate, Krista, swing heroically across the nicely lined up frozen snakes to avoid falling into the icy pits of the frozen Trollbears of Toothpick Forest!
Krista:  Wow, monkey bars are so much cooler when you're here!
Pippin:  But Erina isn't the only one doing some traveling.



Pippin:  Gaivan gets in some time with his darling wife while Abernathy...
Abernathy:  Well, hello there, pretty lady!
Mixologist:  Hello yourself, handsome!
Pippin:  Well, he does Abernathy things.



Gnorm:  ...
Erina:  I'm glad you asked!  I'm documenting my adventures so I can recall the intimate details of my adventures later.  You know, saving them for posterity!
Pippin:  Oh.  She also talks to gnomes.  Great.
Erina:  Woot!  Time for more adventures!



Pippin:  Oh look!  Gaivan and Saanvi's next oldest daughter, Mallory, has finally aged up to child and can come on adventures!  There she is at the bubble gun turret!
Erina:  Umm, Malory?  I believe you were asked to wear a red shirt?
Mallory:  But why?
Erina:  Because you are the youngest, and therefore, most expendable member of the crew and may need to be sent off to be injured, kidnapped, or killed to advance the plot, silly!
Mallory:  ...MOM!!!
Erina:  And Captain Princess Lady Erina faces the peril of the Matriarchal Council of Sector Taco 7.  Mister Jax!  Full thrusters!
Jacqueline:  You know I'm not a mister, right?
Erina:  We're in crisis mode, man!  Keep it together!
Jacqueline:  K.



Erina:  Mister Krister, how are the engines looking?
Krista:  Cap'n, I jus' dinna think ah kin do it!
Pippin:  Well done, Krista!
Krista:  Yeah, my mom's a bit of a sci-fi nerd.
Pippin:  And speaking of people's moms...



Pippin:  Tessie's mom asked her favorite guy out for llunch...or brunch...or something meal-ish.
Ericka:  I see you're as much of a smooth-talker as ever, Pippin.
Pippin:  Why, thank you, Ericka!
Blurange Blur:  Umm, she was being sarcastic...
Pippin:  Too late!  She gave me the compliment.  It was a gift, and I'm keeping it!
Blurange Blur:  ...k...



Pippin:  And our darling couple shared some quality time just two tables over...



Pippin:  from Antonia and Krista.
Krista:  I swear we're not stalking the dynasty household!
Ericka:  Of course you aren't, sweetie.  Pippin's just fond of redheads and is probably stalking you two.
Pippin:  Yeah, I...hey!  Anyway, we end this update with dear Erina just one short day away from her teen birthday!



Erina:  Captain Princess Lady's log, stardate eleventy-four and a half pi.  I'm about to go where no captain princess lady has gone before...to the birthday cake...

Wait, what? No grand unveiling of Erina as a teenager? *reels in shock and takes a swig of scotch to recover

Brilliant idea to pair up Gaivan with an immortal vampire! You mean Saanvi's household isn't filled to the max yet? o.O
Haha, loved the Montgomery Scott imitation. That's verra cool of ye, bro!
Have you been in my brain, Pippin? I spent hours this morning reading interviews of Patrick Steward discussing how The Next Generation changed his life.

So excited to be here as your Tooks get closer to the end of their journey.  Yayyyyy!!!
