Season 5: The Ramiel Family

Ramiel Family
Darin Ramiel: Male Adult | Knowledge | Capricorn | Become Criminal Mastermind
Tosha Go-Ramiel: Female Adult | Family | Aquarius | Becomes Captain Hero
Cody Ramiel: Male Baby

Last Round: Darin and Tosha had just returned to the house from being at university.  They got married and enjoyed a fun honeymoon.  Shortly after that Tosha discovered she was pregnant and the couple had a son at the very end of the round they name Cody. Both Darin and Tosha learned to teleport during their trip and Tosha found a job in her chosen career.

We open the lot to find Darin eating some burnt pancakes, which I believe he tried to make himself and thinking about babies.  Is he thinking about having another one, or is he thinking about the one he already has?  It's hard to say at this point.


Darin checks the computer for a job and finally, a job in the criminal career has opened up!  Darin takes it right away and starts later that night. It's always humorous to me when a couple has one sim who wants to be a criminal mastermind and the other wants to be captain hero.  Do they have secret lives from each other?


Since it is now spring Darin went down to the shops and found everyone some spring type clothing.  When he gets back Tosha really wants to have another baby and Darin has no problem obliging trying for his wife.


That evening, before Darin heads off to work, the couple sits down to a meal of spaghetti, which was cooked perfectly by Tosha.  She is actually a very good cook. I really do like her spring outfit, it seems to suit her very well.


Darin is a good day and plays with his son Cody.  It's almost time for Cody's birthday and Darin always makes sure he is fed.  Tosha does as well, but during the day it's Darin's responsibility.  The fact the couple works opposite shifts works out great for childcare.


That very next morning though, while Darin is studying up some skills in order to get a promotion, Tosha suspects she is pregnant. Another little Ramiel should be on their way.


Tosha wanted to eat hotdogs and so she cooked a few up on the grill.  Her cravings were starting to kick in and she looks like she wanted to talk to Darin, but he was engrossed in his studying.


Sure enough, we get confirmation that Tosha is indeed pregnant.  She was so close to getting a promotion so we sent her to work anyway. Her needs plummeted pretty good while at work, but she did get the promotion she was looking for.


Darin, meanwhile, decided to throw a birthday party for Cody.  It was time for him to grow up into a toddler.  So all their friends were invited over.  Here we see Eugene, Opal, and Jaiden (at least I believe that's who these three are.)


Outside waiting to come in we see Arnav and Meadow are also here. Some of these guys are back from university and others are still there, but this core group of students knew each other quite well from being in the Greek House together.


Cody was brought to the cake by Darin and everyone celebrated, but nothing happened.  Ok, check to make sure Cody doesn't need a diaper changed, which he doesn't and remember we had a glitching baby last house with Meadow not wanting to give birth.


Take too, more celebration and the baby still doesn't want to grow up.  I am starting to get concerned at this point, but it's nearly time for Darin to go to work and Tosha is now home. As a last-ditch effort, even though I was pretty sure it wasn't needed, baby Cody was fed a bottle.


Tosha brings him back to yet another cake and this time baby Cody grows up.  For all he was fed, apparently, Cody had gotten hungry and wasn't going to grow up that way.  He is a cute little boy with his mom's blonde hair, but his dad's blue eyes.


Tosha gets to work feeding Cody smart milk and sits down to teach him to talk.  His first word is mama, which melts Tosha's heart.  Before long Cody is talking up a storm.


Late at night, actually in the bedroom, Tosha goes into labor.  After the pain comes the joy of another baby....only there were actually two new babies.


First, we meet Lesly Ramiel.  She got popular name 834 and is a blonde haired, green eyes little bundle of joy. Her sister gets popular name 438, Jazlyn Ramiel.  She has dark brown hair like her dad and his blue eyes.


Darin is thrilled with having twin girls, but it does mean more renovations need to be done to the house.  After moving around some items Darin is able to finish up potty training with Cody.  The less they have to "train Cody" as the girls get older the better.


Now that she is no longer pregnant Tosha teaches Cody to walk.  He is now mobile, able to ask for what he needs, and potty trained.  The parents can focus their attention on the twins as needed now.


They also can focus on their studies.  Both needed skills for a promotion and so they sat down and worked hard to reach their goals.


Darin noticed a stray dog had dug up the yard, and because I was curious if that possibly meant anything I had Darin dig for treasure in that spot.  He came up with a treasure chest.  Is this normal, I wonder?


Cody really wanted to learn a nursery rhyme and so Darin sat down and taught it to him. Currently, his crib is right outside his parents' room, but as the twins get older he will probably end up sharing a room with them.


Tosha needed body skills and since it's much easier to get those skills if you know physiology she sat down and learned it.  She was able to get most of her needed skills by the end of the round and will be set up to get another promotion next round.

  1. When you dig for treasure. Sometimes you get a treasure chest, other times it might be a bone/rock and other bits and bobs. But the Treasure chest is worth the most. Lovely looking children.

    1. Yeah, I know what you can get from digging, I was just curious if digging where a dog digs maybe gives you more of a chance for something? :) It was just an interesting coincidence in this case. :) They could probably use the money, but for now they are displaying the treasure chest. Thanks for stopping by and reading! The kids are super cute and I'm excited to see what they all look like as they get older.

    1. It is fun to dig up a treasure chest. I had never thought to try and dig up where the dogs did, but I did it on a couple more lots and got a treasure chest one other time. The other time I think I got a dog bone, so it does make we want to start tracking if the odds are higher, if you dig where a dog does, to get a treasure chest. Glad you were able to stop by and read. :)
