Warning: A long update is ahead! I would've cut it shorter, but I felt like all the photos went together well.
This entire post takes place in the time of a sim week. Wow, I take a lot of photos.
We start off where we left off, after Maximus' birth.
By the way, I checked his stats and Maximus is Neurotic and Artistic, a Taurus, and likes Dark Wave, the color purple, and Dim Sum.
Ashia: What do I do with it now?
Just be a decent mother.
Ashia: Oh, gotcha.
Leighton: Why do I have to be the one who gets their sleep disturbed by the baby?
Simple, you're not a heavy sleeper.
Leighton: Coochie-coochie-coo! Now please don't wake me again, I have work tomorrow.
Leighton: Really, again?
Luckily, Leighton is pretty good at knowing what the baby needs.
And he's getting his own food!
Ashia Merice is surrounded by leaves.
This ended up being my profile picture because the picture of her screaming was too scary.
Ashia: Hey, I'm mellow, aren't I?
Most of the time, yes, yes you are.
Leighton: Why are you staring at me?
Ashia: I wished for a kiss.
Wish granted!
And then she wished for a baby so y'know...
Making hot dogs for her best friend and partner Hank in an opportunity.
Time for Maximus' Birthday!
Cute, but Max is a complete clone of Ashia as it seems other than coloring.
Still adorable though.
Another house update!
Ashia: Oh, I'm just pregnant.
Toddler skilling!
Ashia: Hmm, he smells nice.
Maximus: I HAFE MUM WUNDER MY CONTWOL!!
Maximus: I wuv milk.
Ok, fine he's freaking adorable.
Maximus: Why did you trap me in a cage?
Aww... and as you can see I repainted his crib.
Leighton: What? You again?
Maximus: But Daddy...
Leighton: Oh, fine.
Max: You no you want to.
Leighton: Ashia's right, he does smell nice.
You're eating his scalp, dear.
Maximus: I WUV IT I WUV IT I WUV IT
Maximus: Stop it, Daddy!
Well, at least he knows to cook now. There's leftovers in the fridge, Leighton.
Leighton: I am a grown man and I will be independent by eating MY own food that I cooked.
Fine, fine.
*awkward*
Well, you sure didn't plan on burning your food.
Hope you enjoy your burnt waffles!
Leighton: ...We have to save money, and I can't let those 11 simoleans be wasted.
*sells burnt food* There, I hope you're happy.
Mailwoman: Now pay those measly bills for your worthless shack!
Mailwoman: *is full of anger*
I wonder what happened that made her so bitter.
Maximus: No food?
Maximus: Bwat I want food!
Leighton: That cake was much better than any waffle.
Max got food, courtesy of Ashia.
Ashia: What was I doing again?
Ashia: Oh, right, I was putting Max to bed.
Max: But don't leave me Mama!
Max: I will not sleep.
Max: Bwat I am so
Max: tired.
Another pic of Ashia harvesting the tree.
I am sometimes really glad for Leighton's helping around the house.
Ashia: Come on honey, you can do it!
Max: I'll twy Mum!
Max: I failed Mum.
Ashia: It's fine sweetie, you did try.
Malcolm Landgraab arrives on our doorstep, and I was like "What the crap?"
Then I remembered it was Spooky Day.
Max is still cute, despite being an Ashia clone.
Malcolm: I want the best candy in the entire world!
Leighton: Kay, kid, I'll give you some candy.
Malcolm: Yay!
Leighton: Here's your candy! Can you leave now?
Malcolm: Sure thing, sir!
It's raining!
I don't care if you're sleepy, look at how close you are to learning how to walk!
One last time...
Max is proud of himself.
Leighton: Really? You woke me up just to fall asleep?
Leighton: That kid is gonna be the death of me.
Ashia: La di dum.
Ashia: Soggy pancakes are the best!
I wish she picked waffles, though cause you should Never Eat Soggy Waffles, right?
Leighton: Home sweet bed.
There, Ashia, I finally got you that stuffed animal you wished for 3 times.
Leighton: Let's see, how many times have you woken me up?
Aaand he just needs to use the potty. XD
Max's concentrated potty face.
Leighton tries to make hot dogs instead.
Leighton: I'm off to the grill!
Just don't set our house on fire.
Leighton: See, I can do stuff right sometimes!
Leighton: *basks in excellence of self-prepared meal*
Leighton: I totally won.
Back to head smelling!
Ashia: Hurry up Leighton, I need to teach him to talk.
Ashia: Say "We're all gonna die someday."
Geez, Ashia, morbid much?
Ashia: But it's true!
Leighton: MaaAAAAAX!!!
Max: I'm innocent.
Weirdest moment ever:
Leighton: Space Rockets!
Leighton: Man I love space rockets!
Guys, I think we cracked Leighton.
Back to splashing!
Leighton: That freaking toilet!
Leighton: Also, I think Ashia's giving birth.
Leighton: Why isn't she in pain yet?
Leighton: Hurry up, honey.
Ashia: I'm changing!
Leighton: Now I can panic.
Ashia: That Darn TOILET!!!
Leighton's Anguished Face
Ashia: Breathe, Just Breathe.
Perfect activity to do when your child is being born.
Leighton: I'm relieving some of my stress!
Your wife's in labor right now, you know.
Leighton: That's just why I'm stressed!
Ashia: Ok, I can do this, even if Leighton isn't here.
Ashia: OH NO, I CAN'T DO THIS!!!!
Geez, those are some high eyelashes!
Leighton: That toilet is still clogged.
Ashia: And I am still in labor!
Ashia: Hold on.
It's a girl!
Her name is Aurelia Wanderer, and she is a Loner (locked in) and Clumsy like her mom.
Aurelia loves the color pink, Dark Wave, and cheesesteak. Lastly, she is a Libra.
Leighton: The birth of my child almost made me stop worrying about how broke we are!
Maximus is still cute.
Ashia: My darling Max.
Max: I have to potty, Mom!
Max can say a lot of the words already.
Ashia: Yay! I never taught you that one!
Leighton: Still smells good.
I am totally guessing at the needs of the kids.
Oops.
Leighton: Great, now I have TWO kids to rob me of my sleep.
Sorry.
Leighton: Welp, back to bed.
Leighton: BOTH of you are crying?
Leighton: I sacrifice you to the heavens, so you may no longer annoy me!
Max: I'm stinky, Mommy!
Say it with me: AWWW!
Ashia: (dreaming) Get it, Leighton!
Leighton: I know, I know.
Max: I want to SLEEP!
Leighton: And I'm hungry, so I'll put you to bed later.
Max: Really?
Leighton: Naw, it's hot dog time!
Max: Daddy?
Leighton: Going to work, good luck with the kids, Ashia.
Ashia: Don't worry Max, Mommy'll always put your needs before hers!
Some alone time.
Oh for heaven's sake.
Why does stuff keep breaking???
Max: YAY!!
Ashia is taking care of them both.
In her "free time", she fixes stuff!
It's a great life, isn't it?
Ashia: Can't people see I'm busy?
Ashia: Why do I have to take this out?
Cause Leighton is at work.
Ashia: I'm in a friggin ISBI, do you think I have time for doing opportunities anymore?
Leighton got promoted to Rookie in Professional Sports!
Max: At least Mommy takes care of me!
Yup, Ashia Merice is living the good life.
Leighton: No way! I can't work out on my own, you know!
Although I wish you could.
Leighton: Something stinks.
Leighton: Oh my gosh
Leighton: Something really really stinks.
Leighton: Do you want more babies?
Ashia: No, I just wanted to hug you.
Aww, Leighton is blushing.
Ashia: It's fine Leighton, I'll always be here for you, no matter how stupid you are.
Leighton: Aww, thanks hon-wait what?
I got her an easel because I didn't realize that we had over 1,000 simoleans.
And then I moved it inside since Ashia was chilly.
Ashia: Mah baby girl.
Aurelia: Waah!
Ashia: I'll take the pancakes.
Ashia: Never mind, they stink.
Seriously, what spoils as soon as you take it out of the fridge?
Ashia: Yum, cake.
Leighton: FOOOOD!!!!
Ashia: I'm tired, so you're on your own.
Leighton: Ashia?!
Ashia: Nope.
Ashia: Ok, fine, I'll help a bit.
Leighton: To the fridge!
Leighton: Yum, waffles that expired a few sim hours ago!
Maximus: MOMMY DADDY HELP!! I'm stuck inside my potty!
This was absolutely hilarious.
Leighton: I'm having a bad day, okay?
Max: Daddy?
Leighton: Nope, he's leaving.
Leighton: Ok, I've got you.
Leighton: At least he still smells nice.
Leighton: There you go! Sweet dreams.
Max: Daddy! I'm hungry, not sleepy!
Leighton: I'm not feeling so well... Am I pregnant?
No, dummy.
Max: DADDY!!!!
Leighton: Just block it out, and you won't hear him.
Father of the Year! And he's Family-Orientated too!
Leighton: Hey, everyone has their breaking point!
That's true, and maybe we did wake him up too many times with the kids.
Max: I want food. Please, daddy?
Leighton: Ok, I guess I'll feed you for the good of the legacy.
A sweet father-son bonding moment. Except that it was forced.
Maximus gets his well-deserved bottle.
Leighton: I think something is rising out of my stomach.
Spare us from the details.
Leighton: Yup, there goes my breakfast.
Max's Birthday!
Leighton's the only one cheering.
Ashia: Aaah-aaah-choo.
Max is sparkly.
And he is now Frugal, like his dad.
And yes, I did randomize, since I think it's more fun to not pick their traits.
Max: Am I stuck like this?
Max: Why does Mom not pay attention to me when it's MY birthday?
Ashia: I still care about you, darlin'.
Nothing is better than eating cake outside in the snow.
It's Aurelia's birthday as well!
Now we have two guys cheering!
Ashia: Let's get you away from the family craziness.
Not the best idea, Ashia.
Leighton is excited again.
Well, Aurelia's a nice mix of her parents. I think she has Leighton's eye shape and color, Ashia's nose, and Leighton's mouth.
Leighton: I'm stuffed, but I can't stop eating! This cake is SO GOOD! :D
Glad you think so, Leighton. We spent 30 simoleans on it.
Leighton: But that's way too expensive! We have to save up money for important things, like lamps.
D:
And that's the end of the second post!
Tallies:
Torch-Holders: 1
Self-Wettings: 1
Births/Babies: 2/2
I hope this made you smile once or twice, and that my writing isn't horribly cheesy. I'll see if I can post something once a week or not. Happy late Valentine's Day to everyone! Although, if you're single like me, then happy late Singles Awareness Day! :P

Update: I added a poll on whether I should do longer posts or shorter posts. I doubt anyone will actually vote, but right now it's open in case you want to help me decide.
