2. Welcome back to Arbor Watch! This round it’s
the Goodie’s the most domestic happy family I
have, refreshing change from the Lillards last
chapter right?
3. Day One starts like all good mornings, with baby
Danielle screaming her head off.
5. Of course Herbert was woken up too, but he just
took a quick shower and sat on the couch. Lazy
bones.
6. It wasn’t long before Ruth was up too. She managed to
sneak off to the tub, for so good ol’ fashion tub piratin’.
7. All to soon the school bus came and she’s off to her
first day of school. They grow up so fast don’t they?
8. After the bus was gone, Herbert and Faith snuck in some alone time.
I think I’ll have them have at least one more child. They weren’t
successful this time around though.
10. Joe Carr gave the last star to get to Rank 5. Because I’m
an awesome sim player this is pretty much the only
picture I have of Herbert at the store.
11. Faith and Herbert have a pretty lazy afternoon, Danielle
is asleep and Ruth away at school. Faith makes a new
friend and they have a nice quiet lunch.
12. It’s Danielle birthday so I had Faith invite some of her
friends over. Of course I forgot that Ethan was still in
love with Dagmar and Brandon and Dagmar were as
usual all over each other. Whoops.
14. Everyone was able to get their act together for
Danielle’s cake toss.
15. Well, I guess you could say she’s cute. I’m not
sure who she got her nose from, but it doesn’t
fit her face very well, poor girl. I like her though
but apparently not enough to write down her
personality. Crap.
16. Nothing like a quick bottle of smart milk and a hair cut
to make everything better.
17. Oh Ethan I’m so disappointed in you. You
shouldn’t be proud of beating up your ex
girlfriend.
18. Thankfully the fight didn’t keep the party from being a
good time and everyone went home no worse for
wear.
19. The next morning starts early, of course with little girls around
it’s hard to sleep in isn’t it? I try to get Ruth to sleep in a little
more by having her tire herself out jumping on the bed. 3 A. M.
is just too early by my standards.
20. Thankfully sims are heavily sleepers otherwise Herbert
making flower arrangements would have kept her
awake.
21. Oops. I had forgotten that the Lillards had given away
Cinnamon during their turn of the rotation. I couldn’t
let the Goodies get away without having Bane’s
progeny. So Cinnamon joins the family.
22. After Cinnamon was settled, Herbert went to work. Poor
Christie and Chloe, I really need to get them out of those track
suits.
23. A star from Orlando Bertino brought Goodie Blooms to
rank 6 woot! I’ll have another level ten business in no
time. Though I went ahead and had Herbert close down
shop and head up. He was exhausted because he got up
too early.
24. Back home everyone wanted another puppy. Puppy
fever has seemed to have invaded Arbor Watch. So I
have Faith adopt a little girl puppy named Gizmo,
hopefully she’ll be cute.
25. Gizmo was an instant hit, of course what puppy isn’t.
26. Faith helps Ruth catch up on her homework. Which
she never got done with all the activity the night
before.
27. Herbert sat down with Danielle to teach her how to talk.
You know she’s kinda growing on me.
35. I had to break down and hire some employees to help
Herbert out. Christie Stratton and Marie Rauscher were
the victims of choice. Look’s like Marie has a bit of a dye
job, I see those red eyebrows.
36. Armando Cox brought the business up to rank 7. After
that I sent Herbert home.
37. Cinnamon is an all too willing victim of toddler
cuddles. Him and Danielle are soon best friends.
38. Ruth starting calling all her school friends to stay in
touch. While Faith taught Danielle how to walk. In
her underwear, cause you know that’s the best way
to do it.
39. Richard Smithe walked by so Ruth ran out to greet him.
It’s a early for matchmaking but I think I’ll indulge in
making tentative plans. Not her and Richard though,
they’re both the heirs of their families. Maybe Ruth and
Jeremiah Cooke…
40. Herbert is up ridiculously early the next morning. So I
send him shopping. First stop, a birthday cake for
Danielle. She’s growing up again tonight.
41. Next both toy stores. The girls need a little spoilin’.
42. And lastly Bertino’s Bolts for a clean bot. I usually make
them give any robots that they buy back to Dagmar. But
it’ll be fun for at least one family to have one.
47. I was looking at Savannah
Smithe and Elise Vega
and realized they look
alike enough to be sisters.
Then I realized Abby and
Lilly both have the female
Komei face.
Pretty neat eh?
48. Poor Ruth is overwhelmed by the amount of people at
her house right now.
49. To get all the kids playing together I had Ruth start a
water balloon fight. What better way to play in the
summer. Elise and Savannah were quick to join in.
50. Though the fight broke up pretty quickly. Elise
wanted to play with Gizmo. And Richard joined the
adults watching a movie.
52. Nothing like growing up in pink pjs. She’s still interesting
looking, but it suits her.
53. The next morning Danielle is up first cleaning the house
for Reno Day.
54. Here’s the current layout of this house. It’s well
enough, but a little tight fitting for a family of five.
55. There we are, much better. I was inspired by the way homesteaders used
to build houses with a breezeway in between the bedroom and the main
living area. So the bedrooms and bathrooms are one side and the living
room and kitchen on the other side. It still needs some polishing up. But
the Goodies are out of funds until Herbert goes to the store.
56. Marisa brings the store to rank 8. Sweet, now I can finish
off building.
57. Back at the homestead *wink*. Faith pops again.
Shoot I’m going have to wait until next rotation
to see the baby. *grumble*
58. The girls bring Savannah and James Cooke home
with them. I love it when they bring friends over.
61. The girls were sent to bed and Faith paid the taxes.
That’s it for the Goodies. Up next Sam and Phil
