saveourpeeps | The Porter Family: Week One (Reply)

The final family of Woodhaven is the Porters, who are ready to get started on their family right away.

The Porters don't leave a very fascinating life - with no jobs available yet, they merely spend their days skilling up in preparation for later getting jobs. Jackson enjoys filling out the crossword puzzles to help his mind while Violet does her best to learn everything about parenting that she can before children come.

And she soon learned that children would be on the way very soon.

Violet and Jackson did their best to enjoy their last few days alone before the baby arrived.

Violet also found a stray, DD, who seemed to love playing fetch. She even thought about adopting the dog to make her family grow even more, although she decided to see whether DD would stop by again first.

Jackson had a pet project of his own - an art farm, perfect for learning more about the scientific world.

And Violet becomes the third Sim in Woodhaven who could prove the town with electricity and water, as long as she manages to max out her mechnical skill and become best friends with Clayton.

And the day of the birth finally arrived, and Violet couldn't help but slightly regret her wish for children.

And so, on Day 4, Arthur and Derek Porter were born, both almost identical to their father, except for thier pale skin tone.

The boys seemed to be identical (boring, I know - hopefully they'll look different once they get older), but one seems to be a night owl while the other is more content to sleep.

Keeping up with the twins didn't allow Violet to concentrate on her skills like she did earlier, and her cooking wasn't improving as quickly as she was hoping it would.

Keeping up with the twins was very time-consuming, and soon it was their birthday. Violet and Jackson were delighted to see that it would be easier to tell the twins apart now that they were toddlers.
(I forgot to write down which was which, but I think Derek is the top picture and Arthur is the bottom picture - like I said, though, that could be wrong)

Jackson was excited to see that he could now interact with his sons more, helping them learn the skills that they would need to know for the rest of their lives.

Violet also loved being able to cuddle up with her babies, content with two perfect boys.

The week wrapped up with Violet finally getting a break, just in time to remind us about her possible bad temper that she first displayed at Clayton's meet-and-greet. This could be a side of Violet that shows up next week...
Next up will be a quick post wrapping up all that has happened this week (which isn't really that much), and then we'll return to the Bentley family, where plenty will be happening.
