Ella threw a combination gift giving and birthday party in order to celebrate Madeline's, Cecil's, and Luther's birthday. She invited over as much of her family as possible along with a certain Tyrian Thistle. He was eager to attend. As perceptive as ever, Elwood knew exactly what was going on in his sister's head when she snuck a glance at her purple visitor.
Elle managed to enjoy the party immensely. While everyone was distracted by all the food downstairs, Ella was having a little something different to dine on.
She and Tyrian were able to sneak back down to the festivities without anyone really noticing, save for Elwood of course, what they had been getting up to. The massive pile of presents was dug into. The household got some good gifts, but nothing that was exactly worthy of noting.
The celebration ended with the triplets aging up. They also took their departure from the main household that evening.
Having the Genius trait meant that Lynette was constantly attached to the potion making station. She had dabbled with chess, but she found creating concoctions that could achieve all sorts of results was much more exciting. However, there were a few mishaps. Her being a bit too overeager caused some of her works to explode, leaving her singed and making a quick dash to the shower.
Gwendolyn aged into a child.
Then it was Melinda's turn to have a birthday. With her wacky appearance and brown clothes due to brown being her favorite color, she is turning out to be quite an interesting Sim to behold.
I was able to work Ella's schedule around so she could eat breakfast with her children now that she only had one toddler to look after. Unfortunately for her, she got the short end of the stick for food that morning. Two servings of that purple, glowy jello stuff were in the fridge. Ella got the last piece from one of the servings. Hers turned bad right as she finished. Lynette and Gwendolyn, however, got fresh and delicious cubes to devour.
With it being confirmed that Ella was pregnant again, I gave her a night off from watching the kids to attend Elwood's pool party. Alas, there was no pool at his house to swim in. Ella walked about chatting it up with the other party goers instead. There was one moment though where she suddenly stood still and glanced up at the ceiling.
Somehow, she knew exactly what was going on above her head. Elwood was taking advantage of the fact that he was the only man at the party.
His fun didn't last much longer. He had a girlfriend who lived with him. There had no hiding what he had done. She walked in of the little woohoo session after all. An argument began to take place. That was when Ella made her departure. She had been looking for a night off, not a night full of listening to her brother ruining his relationship.
Lynette and Gwendolyn wanted to head down to the festival on the weekend. Ella was too close to giving birth, so she gave them some money and had them head out by themselves. The sisters saved some of their money by forgoing the festival games and playing for free on the bee spring riders. It was cold, but both girls refused to put on a coat.
The two did some dancing- each hoping they might be crowned the queen of the festival.
Lynette then dished out some money to play with the Whack-a-Gnome. She was not very good.
While Lynette was failing miserably at her game, Gwendolyn practiced playing horseshoes. She was good.
It became birthday time again. This time the honor belonged to Lynette.
Ella began her childbearing with triplets. Now she ended her childbearing with triplets. Purple boys named Isaiah, Errol, and Trevor to be exact. Ella did have time to become pregnant again, but she used what happened with Emmeline as an example. Ella wanted time to focus on raising her youngest children while she still had energy instead of pushing out more when her heir was almost at childbearing years herself. Besides, with Emmeline having 11 children and her having 13- she felt satisfied that she had done her part well.
Her sense of peace didn't last long. Even with all her experience, taking care of her three new boys was a challenge. It didn't help that neither Lynette nor Gwendolyn would confess to being the one who snuck hair dye into her shampoo bottle.
We'll end with one more birthday. Little Melinda already became a child. She obtained a personality as colorful as her appearance.
Aw, Melinda and Gwendolyn are absolutely adorable. I love them!
