Camie’s Big Day
Camille was getting bigger and bigger every day! Blake and Marisa couldn’t believe how fast their little girl was growing up. They missed having a baby in the house so they had been actively trying to get pregnant again. Something wasn’t working though; they weren’t sure what exactly. But whatever it was, Marisa was just not hearing that beautiful lullaby that only a mother can hear when a child has been conceived. They were both disappointed every time they found out that she was not pregnant and there would not yet be a second Brooks child. But they still had little Camille, and they wouldn’t trade her for ten more babies! Blake really enjoyed coming home from work and relieving Marisa of the babysitting duties. He had a blast playing with his little girl; and it was also his mission to teach her everything she would ever need to know about the world. He started by teaching her how to talk!

“No…not ‘doo-doo’…it’s ‘daddy’.”
Blake finally graduated from the Police Academy and was now a full fledged Patrol Officer. A nice pay raise accompanied his new title; he now made 552 simoleans a day. However, his hours went back to being strange: 3pm - 11pm with Wednesdays and Fridays off. He also got his first ever partner! Her name was Christy Stratton and luckily, they got along extremely well. Even Marisa liked her, and Christy was a frequent dinner guest.

“They’re not going to shave your head are they?”
With his recent luck in the workplace, Blake felt confident in his abilities once more. He decided to give it another hot with Marisa and see if they could make a baby. They cuddled and kissed, and spent a magical night together. The only interruption they had was when Camille somehow found her way to the bathroom and started to slosh all of the water out of the toilet and onto the floor. But other than that, the night felt like a success and they couldn’t wait to find out if it had worked!

“This is no time for cuddling! There are babies to be made!”

Don’t you just love that little binky question mark graphic? Sometimes I just want to say “Yes! Duh!”

Thanks guys for the comments! I have a blast making those little commentaries! Sometimes it’s the first thought that pops into my head when I see the looks on their faces!
And I know exactly what you mean Annette! I just want to yell at them, “Now think about this for a sec! You just “Try’d for a baby” and now you’re throwing up every hour! HELLO!!”
