The summary introduces Allyn and Ryan, a married couple with new twins, Polly and Tom. Allyn works on cooking points and sewing while caring for the babies. Ryan gives the dog multiple baths and repairs the sink. Allyn has her mother and sister over for pizza dinner but forgets to invite her new stepfather. Allyn manages to bathe and cuddle the babies some but they didn't receive the required amount of playtime due to glitches. The household is left in disarray at the end of the rotation.

1. Hello! Welcome back to You Don’t Have To Be Perfect, my attempt
at a Perfect Mother challenge. Last time, we fulfilled the
requirements for an engagement, a wedding party, and at least
getting started on one of the required babies.
Now that you’re all caught up, let’s check in with Allyn and Ryan!

2. During the two remaining days of her pregnancy, Allyn busied
herself with working on gaining cooking points – after all, we need
a total of ten.

3. Ryan busied himself bathing the dog. And chasing down the dog.
And bathing it again to get out all the dirt that stuck to the soap.
And then cleaning up the bathroom, and the couch destroyed by
said dog, and the puddle that we are absolutely going to say is
water.
Since I don’t have the yellow pee hack, you can’t even call me a
liar.

4. Allyn worked on her required sewing badge, too, since she
eventually needs to make teddy bears for all.

5. Ryan worked on repairing the busted downstairs sink. Sure, he’s
Neat enough to enjoy cleaning, but there’s such a thing as “too
much of a good thing.”

6. And then this round of domesticity was completely shattered by the
efficient arrival of two out of our three required babies.

7. This is Polly, the older of the two.

8. And this is Tom, the younger.
Yes, Tom. Not Thomas.
Because it’s my game and I can if I want, that’s why.

9. After changing into her officially official Saturday outfit, Allyn got
started on her motherly duties of two cuddles per baby per day.

10. She also invited her mother over for dinner, to meet the requirement
of “have your parents over for dinner once a week.”
Anastasia was delighted to come over and play with the grandkids.
She quite likes babies, provided someone else deals with all those
icky bodily fluids.

11. Of course, as the already struggling mother of unexpected twins,
Allyn didn’t bother actually cooking.
Pizza works just fine.

12. Allyn’s sister Georgiana came over for dinner as well, which I
thought was cool, since Anastasia was a single mother.
Then I realized that Anastasia recently married for the first time,
and that Allyn really should’ve invited her new stepfather.
Er… whoops? It was an honest mistake…

13. Allyn did her best to fulfill her commitments after dinner. Both
children were successfully bathed. Hoorah!

14. Polly eventually got her two cuddles…

15. …but poor Tom only got one.

16. And even with help from Ryan, each child only got played with
once, instead of the required twice.
I’m not sure if allowing the father to participate is strictly within
the rules. But the way I figure, a perfect mother would choose a
perfect partner who is willing to share the load of child-rearing
more or less equally.

17. But it’s not entirely my fault that the kids only got one play each.
Somehow, the kids got glitched (especially Polly) so that
interactions with them simply timed out. I finally had to break out
the Batbox to fix it, and by then Allyn and Ryan were basically
nonfunctional.

18. And as we leave this household, we leave it in pretty awful shape.
You just know this is going to draw flies…

19. The dog isn’t doing any too great.

20. And this…
Well, you know this can’t be good.
It was actually something of a relief to end this rotation. Which is a
good thing! I like my challenges to be, you know, challenging.
Until next time, happy Simming!
