Chapter Four: Then Comes Baby in a Baby Carriage

They got married the next day in a private ceremony on Jaela’s massive lot.

Connor is now an official member of the family. 26
With the funds Connor brought into the household, they were able to fully enclose the house while flirting outside.
27
The house wasn’t much, but it had four walls and a roof, and that was more than Jaela had managed before the wedding.
After the ceremony, Connor headed down to the local library to work on his first book. His ultimate goal in life is to be a Professional Author, and get enough from royalty checks each week to support himself and his brand new wife. To supplement the sparse chapter by chapter paychecks from his editor, he has a low level job in the Journalism Career.
28
By the time he had submitted a few chapters, it was night time, so he headed home to his blushing bride. And, well, I’m sure you can guess what happened then.

As you might remember, Jaela has a Green Thumb and has, since her move, wanted to start a garden. Unfortunately, she’s just been too broke to even buy some fruit from the supermarket. The day after the wedding, Jaela stopped by to tell her good friend Simis the happy news. She was, as always, admiring their garden, when inspiration struck. After a quick glance to make sure everyone was inside, she, ah, made an investment towards her future garden.
31
When she got home, she proudly started her garden, now consisting of a single tomato plant.

The next morning, Jaela wasn’t feeling too hot.
33
But as she had to get to work, there was not point dwelling on it. after work, on the way home she stopped by the Bachelor’s to strip some more plants. She had realized that the supermarket would buy any fruit you had on you, no questions asked.
34
Then she ate dinner, wondered briefly where on earth her husband was, realized he was at the library working on his book, and went to sleep. She awoke in the middle of the night when the sudden, terrifying realization of what was wrong with her.
36
She was pregnant. This was not, of course, in the plan of becoming Leader of the Free World before she became a full-fledged Adult. Her bosses would insist she take maternity leave, and who knows what would happen in that time? Just as she was about to panic, she glanced over to where Connor was reading a book his editor had suggested he read. (He can certainly be a Bookworm) It was a bit of a reality check. After all, she was married, in love, and on the fast track towards a successful career. Maybe one little baby wasn’t the end of the world.
37
She would have child then continue on her journey to be the Ultimate Person in Politics. By the time she was off maternity leave, they would have enough money to hire a nanny, and being a mother wouldn’t be the time consuming task she thought it might be. And after all, this was what she had always wanted, right? To found her very own Family Legacy.

  1. Good investment- my hungry sims take advantage of that often. I can’t wait to see if it’s a boy or a girl!
