Season 4: The Mimoza Family 2

Mimoza Family
Bob Mimoza: Male Adult | Popularity | Aries | Have 20 Simultaneous Pet Best Friends
Carla Mimoza: Female Adule | Popularity | Leo | Have 20 Simultaneous Best Friends

Last time: When we were last with this branch of the Mimoza family Bob had just moved into his own house across the street from his brother.  He got married to Carla Reamon in a nice outdoor ceremony and they went on a honeymoon to the mountains. Caral announced she was pregnant and Bob worked to befriend strays.

Bob and Carla sit down and eat some breakfast together.  Carla is having a tough time keeping all of her needs up during this pregnancy and is typically either hungry or tired, but this morning she was doing pretty well.


Both of them need and/or want to learn things to keep progressing in their careers so some time is spent skilling while we wait for the baby to arrive.


Being the pop sims they are, parties are frequently thrown, typically by Carla.  She doesn't know that many people in the hood and this is a great way to get people over and talk with them.


During the night Carla gets invited to the Music and Dance lot.  She does a lot of dancing, preferring the slap dance to her home's traditional hula.


Last one night while Carla was headed out to the trash the labor pains took her.  She was right outside the couple's window and Bob rushed outside to be with her...although there wasn't much he could do but look on.


A baby boy was born.  Everyone, meet baby Luke.  We can see he has his father's coloring, but his eyes are still a mystery as he kept them closed.


Carla instantly went to bed, but Bob took over as the dad right away, feeding the baby and bottle, playing with the baby, and being a good father right off the bat.


Caral needed the rest and after she went back to work even got a promotion.  She is working her way up the entertainment industry.  (AN: I had actually completely forgotten she didn't have a career LTW, so she didn't focus as much on friends as I normally would have had her, but that's for next round).



She then worked to skill up some for the next promotion.  This house is pretty little, and the couple has very little money.  They really want to be able to spruce up the place someday.


Ever the pop sim, Carla goes and greats this interesting looking passerby.  She is, of course, still in her underwear.  She doesn't seem to mind her attire, and neither does he.


Before we know it, it's time for a birthday party.  I think for pop sims this is one of the best things about having kids.  They give you excuses to throw parties.  Bob's family is invited, although not all of them are able to attend.


Carla brings little Luke to the cake and all of the guests cheer for the birthday boy and such a wonderful party.  The purple guy, who I think is named Kent, also stays for the party.


A before our very eyes we have Luke turn into a toddler.  He is a very outgoing and but also very serious and fairly grouchy Leo.  He has brown hair (which is almost reddish here) like his dad, but blue eyes.  That could have come from either parent, as Bob's eyes are recessively blue.


Auntie Tess can't wait to snuggle the new addition to their family.  She is probably thinking about her own Stephanie who is just about the same age.


Carla relaxes on the couch and is satisfied with having such a great party.


Little Leo plays a lot with his bunny toy.  This is one of the best toys for toddlers, and I have found many toddlers get almost enough charisma by playing with this guy during their toddler years they practically have enough for a scholarship.


Carla and Luke become best friends.  Luke is a pretty easy kid to take care of and his parents get to sleep through most of the night almost every night without having to tend to him.


Bob also becomes best friends with Leo while working on his potty training.  It took a couple of days to get each parent to a level they could make some smart milk.


During yet another party thrown by Carla, Luke gets some smart milk and learns to walk with his daddy's help.


Finally, by the end of the party, Luke has also learned to use the potty like a big boy.  All that is left is to teach him to talk.  Carla will take on that responsibility as Bob has to go back to work.


With that last little bit, we close out the round for the second house of the Mimoza family.  We will be heading back to university next to finish out the second half for the end of this round.  That should bring Eugene and Jaiden back to the town for next round.

AN: It was so awesome to come back and play this hood again after such a long absence.  I had forgotten how much I wanted to see this new baby and be back with these families.  I hope you all enjoy the update, and I do expect to keep having updates slowly.

    1. I frequently do that myself. I even do it with my own blogs. It takes me so long to get back to them sometimes I will just binge ready back through my old posts for that family to remember all that happened. Glad to have you still reading. :) I hope to get another update done this week, but with moving it might be a couple of weeks.

  2. I get it...I am trying to get the Falls Reboot ready and I don’t have a clue on some of the people. But Pop Sims are Pop Sims. Great partners! I do remember the Mimosa name. ;)

    1. Yeah. I try and go back and re-read posts. It's easier in this hood since this was my hood for when we did that new challenge a year or 2 ago and it's not that big. Breeze Point is a much bigger problem. :) Glad you stopped by and thanks for reading!
