Fall 3 rotation Cooke

1. ~The Eleventh Season~
~Cooke~
By: Pony(formerly CanImarryapony)

2. Welcoome back to Arbor Watch! It’s the Cookes turn in
the rotation and boy is it a madhouse. They’re the
second family in Arbor Watch, but by far the largest.

3. I let most of the children run around on free will. Sandy
and Julien had ten kids and most of them are still at
home. It’s easier to check on their needs and let them
run around like madmen.

4. Julien spends the morning in his favorite room in the
house. He’s baking the inventory for More than Food.

5. Julian works in his garden. Once the garden has taken
off I think I’m going to change More than Food. So that
they start selling fresh produce there. Then I’ll have an
excuse to reopen J&J bakery.

6. Julien and Andrea squeeze in lunch between batches of
baking. It take two group meals to feed the whole
family. So hamburgers and chef salad, though the
hamburgers are peferred.

7. Julian finally earned his silver gardening badge!

8. Jeremiah helps Julien with the evening meal. I’m trying
to make sure all the Cooke Children have plenty of
cooking points.

9. Julian and Andrea have some rare time alone. Andrea’s
schedule is all off because of her pregnancy.

10. Julian and Sandy also snuck some time together. They
love each other very much.

11. The quiet doesn’t last long. Soon the kids are up.
Everyone gathers in the kitchen for the start of Day Two.
You know what they say, the kitchen is the heart of
home.

12. Of course that’s the moment when Andrea decides to go
into labor. In the smallest bathroom of the house.

13. She gives birth to a boy, Julien II. We have our heir to
the Cooke house. He has his dad’s eyes, blonde hair and
skin 3. I think the blonde hair is from Sandy, but
apparently Andrea’s hiding a light hair gene too.

14. Andrea hobbles downstairs to pass Julien II off to Sandy.
You know I really need to stop hitting the random
button.

15. Say hello to Julia, she looks more like a typical Cooke.
Light skin and dark hair. I think she has blue eyes too,
but I don’t remember.

16. In all the chaos, Belle grew into an elder dog.

17. I had to a quick mini reno so the babies would have
some place to sleep. The nursery was gone because
James, Jason, and Jebediah grew up last rotation.

18. Grindall also grew up yay! He’s an interesting looking
dog. Almost like a collie/poodle cross because of the
curly fur.

19. The very best way of celebrating birth is apparently
getting pregnant again. Like this house needs
anymore people.

20. I caught Julien tucking in Jason. Despite all the insanity
in this house, Julien has a good relationship with all his
children.

21. Splendens walks by rather late at night. Andrea was
awake to greet him. I had her give him all the fish her
family caught last season. I find it’s very helpful for
keeping everyone’s craftable/harvestable inventory full
without a ton of effort.

22. James and Sandra are the last ones to bed. They both
had the want to earn a logic point. And who can pass up
a chance for family bonding.

23. Just before dawn the tomatoes are finally ready. Now
Julian can finally start planting all the other crops.

24. Of course Julia’s up early too. Just when Julien and Sandra
were done raising babies.

25. Daisy finally grows up. No more puppies in the house for
a little while. Maybe a long while. Got to move out
some children first. I think I am going to pair her up with
Sven. Jay is probably going to end up with them. But
Daisy can stay with the main Cookes this season.

26. Maria works on her homework. She’s got quite a stack
built up. It’s hard to make sure all the kids do their
homework.

27. Andrea pops her second pregnancy. I love how they
always looked so surprised.

28. Alexander comes home with the younger kids. He likes
Julien a lot, maybe cause they both rock the sweaters.

29. Finally managed to get them all up to More Than Food.
First time this season and it’s already Day Three.

30. Jeremiah was feeling angsty and kept breaking the sink.
Of course I kept making him fix it.

31. Maria dumped a tray on Armando Cox, but he still
followed her into the kitchen to tip her. Oh sweet. Oh I
also put some wallpaper in the kitchen. It’s about time I
finished More Than Food.

32. Peter Sims gave the place rank 7. There’s quite a few
birthdays today so I called it enough and sent everyone
home.

33. There are five birthday’s to be exact.

34. Julien II and Julia are up first.

35. Julia is definietly Julian’s daughter, she looks almost
exactly like him. Julien II is more of a mixture of his
parents. I love his blonde hair. It’s about time there was
some other color than black or gray.
Julien II 2/10/10/8/5
Julia 5/8/4/10/5

36. Next up Jebediah, Jason and James.
James rolled Pleasure and wants to be a
Professional Party Guest
Jason rolled Knowledge and wants to be a
game designer
Jeb rolled Fortune and wants to be a
Space Pirate.
All of these are pretty doable. The Space
Pirate is going to be the hardest to get. I
guess Arbor Watch will be getting a
museum soon.

37. Julien takes an active role as a grandparent and potty
trains Julia in one go.

38. Julian is up most of the night with her teaching her to
talk. Poor Julien II was too tired to stay up and learn
skills.

39. Daisy took an instant dislike to Pao the mailman. Poor
Pao.

40. Poor Andrea got demoted.

41. That didn’t stop her from popping into her final
trimester. Julien finger gunned her while on the way to
work.

42. First thing they have to deal with is roaches. I wish the
good witches came half as much as the evil witches.

43. I moved Maria to the cash register this time around.
Giving her a break from dumping trays.

44. Ricky Cormier gives the store rank 8. Everybody was
pretty tired after that so I closed up and the family
headed home.

45. Maria decided to try out her cooking skills at home.
She’s not having much luck this season.

46. Julien finally got a job in the Culinary career. ‘bout
freakin’ time. Anyways, today his first day of work!

47. It’s Day Five at last and it’s RENO DAY!!! I turned the
downstairs bedroom back into the nursery. I left the cribs in
the master bedroom just in case Andrea has multiples again.
I squeeze enough beds for the older kids into the upstairs
boys’ bedroom. Thomas is moving out this season and I’ve
decided than he’s going to take one set of triplets with him.
This house is just too insane.

48. I also build a green house for Julian’s garden. I want
plant sims eventually, but it doesn’t seem to suit
Julian. He’s more a gardener for better ingredients
rather than a love of nature.

49. Andrea teaches Julia to walk. Julien II has I think been
potty trained. But I forgot to snag a picture of it.

50. Julian got a promotion his first day of work. He’s now a
waiter, all that practice as a teenager is paying off.

51. Shortly after the school arrives and the teenagers pour
off. I think they managed to invite half the
neighborhood home.

52. Of course Andrea always picks the best times to go into
labor.

53. First born is Jessica who got red hair of Andrea. She’s
the only one who could be carrying the gene.

54. Next up is Jeremy, who also got red hair and green eyes.

55. The babies just never stop!!! Jessie has black hair and
blue eyes like Julia.

56. Grim decided it was the perfect time to take Julien.
Right in between Andrea having quads. The house is
absolute chaos between crying for Julien and cheering
for Andrea.

57. Finally Juan is born. He has blue eyes and red hair. I
know I already have Juan Vega, but I was kinda panicking
and it was the name that came to mind.

58. Poor Thomas is lost in the excitement. But he finally gets
to move out of the madhouse.

59. He falls right into aspiration failure about not going to
college. I’m going to make that his goal in life. To fund a
private university.

60. As soon as he pick himself up off the floor I have him
move out, taking James, Jason, and Jebediah with him.
They’re going to be more in the way than helpful with
the quads. Though I hate taking them away from Sandy.

61. Oh come on! No more babies you two, six is enough for
anybody!
That’s it for the Cookes. Up next the Smithes and
hopefully less chaos 
