Pony Diem has given birth to another child, a daughter named Emma. The family now has 10 children total. Delilah is learning to run Ambi's business, Ambian Sounds. The family celebrates several birthdays. Pony opens a new business, the College Club, to help fund her children's education. She gives birth to one more child but decides 10 is enough. Renovations are done on the family home to accommodate the growing number of children.

1. Week Four
Diem

2. I finally got to play Silver Bend!!!! We’re back for Week 4,
with the Diems. Pony married Ambi and they so far have
five children. Left to Right, Delilah, Heather, and Jonah.
Pony is holding Julie and Ambi is holding Rebecca the most
recent set of twins. Both Pony and Ambi want ten kids, so
there’s bound to be a few more by the end of the week.

3. “Baba.” Rebecca cooed when Ambi picked her up.
“Someone’s a stinky baby.” He told her fondly. “And
awake too early.”
Soon Rebecca would be toddling around getting into
everything. And then she would be a child going off to
school. They grew up so fast.

4. Speaking of growing up too fast. The school bus came
shortly after the sun came up. Delilah heaved a sigh,
theis was her last day in elementary school. Tomorrow
she would go to the high school all by herself. Being the
oldest sucked.

5. “So the kids are gone and the twins asleep. Wanna try for
number six?” I suggested.
“Are you sure you want ten kids?” Ambi asked, leaning back
against the headboard.
“You’re kiddin’ right? I see your want panel, you see mine.
And it’s great for a BACC and points for the legacy.”

6. No lullaby, but I pasted a smile on her face as I headed
off to Diem Digs. We still had time, thanks to the elixir of
life. It gave Ambi and me time together. I’m going to
enjoy every moment of it.

7. Diem Digs was coming along slowly. I was accumulating
more and more permanent inventory. Eventually I
would have to finish the walls, but I wasn’t in any
particular hurry.

8. Silver Bend’s newest resident makes her first public
appearance.

9. “Pony when do I get a house? All I have is a phone.”
Gabie complained
“All in due time. Do you have it?”
“Of that thing, yes. I still don’t get what I have to do with
it.”
“Just keep it close.”

10. I closed up shop when Gabie left. I spent some time
digging to replenish her wares.

11. Back home Bane was starting to show his age. I’m not
ready for him to grow old. Losing him again so soon.
Even if it was only temporarily.

12. Happier news was that the crops were growing rapidly.
Her peppers and eggplants were ready for harvesting. I
would have to think of something to do with the excess
pretty soon.

13. “Mom why doesn’t Jonah have to do homework?”
Heather complained with a whine.
“He’ll do his too. Now what’s 9 times 9?”
“81.” Heather sighed resigned.
I will get my kids to college, which meant no skimping on
the homework.

14. “You can’t hold me for long Copper!” Bran protested.
“You’ll never steal in this town again you dirty rat!”
Jonah said trying not to giggle.
He tried to get Bran to come with him everyday. His
mom would give him an extra couple hours to play if he
brought a friend home.

15. Bran had to miss Delilah’s birthday party. The first teen
birthday in Silver Bend.
“Make a wish Delilah.” Ambi shouted.
“I don’t know what to wish for.” She said.
“Anything you really really want.” I encouraged.

16. “I got it.” Delilah shouted and blew out the candles.

17. “So this is what being a teenager is like.”
“So what did you wish for?” Heather wanted to know.
“I want to own five level 10 businesses. I’m gonna be
the most successful person in Silver Bend.”

18. Being the birthday girl didn’t exempt Delilah from her
share of caring for the garden.

19. It was my night to take care of the twins. When one
went to sleep the other woke up crying.
“I got to quit have twins.”I sighed.

20. I managed to catch some shut eye. I spent the next
morning checking up on the other residents of Silver
Bend. My little town was off to a good start.

21. “Hey sweet thang, wanna go on a date?” Ambi said
seductively.
“Why are you talking like that?” I giggled, “I guess going
on a date is the only way I can fix your English.”

22. …

23. Ambi left Pony to catch up on her sleep. He headed to
Ambian Sounds with Delilah in tow. She wanted to learn
how to operate a business.

24. “This is the hardest skill to learn so we’ll start here
today.”
“Come on Dad, I’ll hire people to do this.”
“You’re not going to be that successful out of the gate.
You’ll have to start small like your mom and I did.” Ambi
pointed out, “Success is a marathon not a sprint.”

25. “This place is really coming together Ambi.” Sandy said
as she gave Ambian Sounds rank 4.
“Thanks Sandy.”
“Putting the kids to work I see.” Sandy grinned, “hope it
goes well.”

26. “She’s getting the hang of it.”
“Frammit.” Delilah swore as the drawer rammed her
stomach yet again.

27. In no time they were out of stock.
“Alright Delilah, time to start on that next badge.”
“I’m coming.” Delilah sighed.

28. Back home, I finally corralled Jonah into doing his
homework.
“Alright spell Melanurus Wrasse.” I instrusted.
“Mom why is half our vocabulary words the names of
fish?”
“Why are.” I corrected.

29. “Do I have to eat the cake?” Heather complained, it was
yet another birthday at the Diem house.
“No, just have to sing happy birthday to your sisters.” I
said thankfully, who knew kids could get tired of cake.

30. Julie and Rebecca looked a lot like they’re older siblings.
Julie (long hair) had my nose, while Rebecca (short hair)
had Ambi’s.
Julie was very playful but a bit on the shy side. While
Rebecca was more outgoing, but lazy.

31. Potty-training began immediately, even with out smart
milk to aid in the progress.

32. Heather and Jonah took outrageous advantage of their
parents’ preoccupation. They snuck outside in their
pajamas to build sand castles.

33. Even though Jonah and Heather didn’t sleep well, I sent
them to school. I had a plan to get her kids into college.
I’m opening up a club. I bought a stretch of land for the
new College Club.

34. Right before I could leave, her latest pregnancy popped.
“I’m going anyway.” I told my baby.

35. “Are you sure this isn’t cheating?” Ambi asked.
“Yes, everybody does it. Keika gave me the idea on the
phone yesterday.” I said huffing and puffing a bit, they
needed to get a car. “I decided not to charge $9,999 an
hour. Only $1,000. I can’t bring myself to charge that
much.”

36. With some frenzied building and almost all of their
funds, College Club was built and furnished. I figured
poker tables were the biggest draw, but I want to test
out some other things too. So I added a hot tub and
karaoke machine.

37. Amanda was the first playable to visit. I didn’t charge
her to come in, not wanting to bankrupt my neighbors.
Amanda could read Ambi like an open book and made a
killing of him in poker.

38. The townies of Silver Bend had a chance to show of their
dances moves. Toby had some anger issues he worked
out on the dance floor.

39. Even Ambi couldn’t resist the call of the dance floor.
“It’s time to go, hun.” I said, my feet and back hurt
despite the energizer.
“One more song!” Ambi insisted.

40. After a short rest, it was back to work. This time toddler
training. Ambi loaded both girls with smart milk and we
got busy.

41. Thursday morning they were back at it.
“Bottle!” Julie said proudly.
“I think you two switched places.” I sighed because of
Rebecca silence.

42. Ambi went to work briefly, only to be met by a pretty but unforgiving reporter.
“This place is horrible, who even likes jukeboxes anymore.” She sneered. “I’m giving you
a bad review. This is not the kind of place the people need in Silver Bend.”
“You realized my wife is the founder right?” Ambi asked dumbfounded
“Don’t you try to change my mind.” She snapped and stormed out.

43. Delilah took a stab at making mac and cheese.
“Is it supposed to be black?” Jonah asked.
“It’s Cajun style.” Delilah said crunching through a
mouthful.

44. Heather crept downstairs early Friday. She was tired of
the same old hair style. She played with her hair in the
mirror until she found a new style that suited her.

45. “Hey Hanna!” Dagmar said when the dogs rushed to
greet her. “Is that Courage? He’s gotten so big.”
“Wuff” Hanna yipped and wagged her tail.

46. I skipped working Friday and spent some time in my
garden. The kids had been doing most of the work. But
I liked getting back to earth.

47. I try to lay down for a nap, but the moment I got
comfortable I went into labor.
“AMBI!!!!” I screamed.

48. Emma was soon born. Another red hair blue eyed baby.
“Just one blonde baby is all I ask. How do six of you have
red hair?” I sighed, “I still love you though Emma.”

49. Emma washed and fed. It was time for her older sisters’
birthday again.

50. “Yay. We’re big now!” Julie clapped her hands together,
“I can build suncastles now!”
“Look at my hand it’s all blurry.” Rebecca laughed.
“Oh dear, Come downstairs with me Rebecca.” I called to
her daughter.

51. “There is that better?” I asked fitting glasses on
Rebecca’s nose.
“So my hands aren’t supposed to be blurry?”
“Not ideally.” I replied. “Those glasses suit you perfectly.”

52. “I think I’m ready to stop having babies.” I said relaxing
with Ambi.
“You sure, we’re not far from ten.” Ambi asked, “You still
want a blonde baby.”
“I guess one more try wouldn’t hurt.”

53. “I love you Ambi.” I sighed happily snuggling up to him.
“Right back at you.” He murmured.

54. Saturday morning I rounded all her able bodied children
outside for an early morning hike. I wanted them out of
the way for renovations.

55. Only Ambi and Emma stayed behind, tucked away in the
master bedroom.

56. The house was working but it was cramped and all the
children had to share the front room like sardines.

57. Thanks to the club, they had quite a nest egg saved for
renovations. A whole third story was added for the kids’
bedrooms.

59. There was finally a proper nursery, no more babies
shoved in the kitchen or a bedroom.

60. Ambi and I headed to the club to recoup the losses of
the renovations. The witches were making their
presence on the island known. I tried not to worry,
these were different covens than the ones on Laguna
Isle.

61. It took some time but the customers started pouring in.
Christy and Sandy gave the club rank 2 and 3.

62. Once home I found myself spending time with Delilah.
“Mom, when can I open my first business?”
“Soon, I’ve already placed the lot.” I smiled, Don’t grow
up so fast. “Do you got a boyfriend yet?”
“Are you kidding? There’s no boys around here, I’m the
only one at high school.”

63. That was true. But not for long. It was Jonah’s and
Heather’s birthdays.

64. Heather ran her hands down her newly grown up body.
“This is awesome.” She grinned, she wanted to grow up
to be a Captain Hero and establish Silver Bend’s police
force. And have a huge family like her mom.
Jonah didn’t let growing in a geeky sweater slow him
down. He was going to be a professional party guest.
Maybe his parents would take him to the club and show
him the ropes.

65. It was little Emma’s birthday too. I wondered where she
got such curly hair from. Emma was a little neatnik, but
a laid back one, she had a few more nice points than her
siblings.

66. The birthday celebrations went a little late. Silver Bend’s
newest teens couldn’t make the grade.
Ambi chuckled and left them alone. They would learn
their lesson after this.

67. I popped out of bed with a not so surprising surprise.
“Please be blonde little one.”

68. The sun was up, but no one was in sight. The Gypsy
breathed a sigh of relief. She was told to be careful of
the Diem house. Pony had a rocky relationship with the
mythical elements. But still, they earned a genie lamp.
And He had his own plans. She thought it was silly, but it
was hard to argue with Him.

69. Unaware of the Gypsy’s gift, Heather was helping out
with Emma.
“Good girl Emma.” She said tickling the girl’s feet, “Lucky
you getting an actual nursery.”
“’Eather!” Emma giggled.

70. Jonah was the first to find the lamp.
“I’m the all powerful Genie, what is your wish.” The
genie demanded when Jonah opened the lamp.
“Money, I want a drum set. But my parents don’t want to
buy one for me.”
“As you wish!”

71. I almost forgot it was Sunday. I called up Amanda Colours.
“Hey Amanda why don’t you and Thai bring the kids over for the afternoon.”
“Sure, you should call Keika too.”
“I tried, but her psychic advised against leaving the house today. You can’t
ignore psychics.”
“Bummer, I’ll be over in a bit.”

72. “Nice pjs Pony.”
“Hey don’t laugh, I’m pregnant and they’re comfy.”

73. “DeiIiah do we have to work in the garden all day?” Julie
complained.
“The more you whine the longer it’ll take to finish.”
Delilah said not bothering to turn around. She loved the
smell of the earth. The pole beans were finally ready.

74. “Higher Heather higher!!!” Bran laughed.
“Okay higher it is!”

75. All her hard work paid off. She earned gold badge in no
time.

76. Heather stirred the mac and cheese. Her parents let her
make the family meal for the night. She hoped her
siblings would like it.

77. I snuggled next to Ambi, his sun warm skin smelled
better than any perfume. Heather could feed the littles,
I couldn’t bring myself to get up.

80. So I haven’t done a good job with
my New Years resolutions. Well
other than quit drinking Dr. Pepper.
I officially quit that. I got a puppy
back in February and puppies take
up more of your time than you can
imagine. He’s finally getting of an
age where he can stay out of trouble
for longer periods. So I managed to
finish a Silver Bend update. And my
job schedule is changing so I’ll
actually have time in the evenings to
play. Happy Simming everyone and
thanks for your patience.
