Sloane City - Gen 5!

Heyo, the Sloanes are back! I've been playing a lot lately, so things have really picked up! May I present to you the fifth generation of Sloanes, starting with...

Here's Christine, the first-born to Vivienne and Andrew. Truth be told, I'm 90% sure this is a picture of her as a teen, but it's the only one I have. But anyway, yes. I was so excited to see her with red hair, which she got from Andrew and possibly Austin as well. I forget. Her brown eyes are from Andrew, that's for sure.

I debated for a while whether or not she would be heir, but I was a little disappointed by the fact she looks exactly like her mother and grandmother, but with red hair. I wanted a little variety in my future Sloanes, so Christine had to go. Plus, unfortunately, she got a little eclipsed by her siblings. But fear not, she's still a lot of fun to play! I was sad to see her go.

Christine married their maid, Darron Kane. She is in the journalism career, and it's her LTW to be a star news anchor! She and Darron had a baby named Irma (clearly not my choice). Yay, Christine!

Onto baby #2! Meet Emmett Sloane - the heir of generation five! Much like gen four, Emmett is the second-born and the only boy sibling. Heir was an unusally tough pick, but Emmett won me over with his adorable charm. I liked him a lot as a child and teen, but it was when he aged up that he really did me in. I can't even put my finger on it, but he's just a really likeable Sim. He is currently pursuing the politics career, and doing pretty well at it! I think one of the reason I like him so much is because he stands around giggling to himself, despite being hot-headed. It's pretty cute, as are his childish traits (childish seems to be the dominant one!). Plus, he was the best big brother to his younger sister - even though she's moved away now, they talk/visit every day, and it's pretty adorable.

Emmett married his high school sweetheart, Jada. Unfortunately, things aren't going so well, so we'll see what happens next...

And finally, may I introduce...

Miss Stella Sloane! I apologize for the weird face she's making. But here she is! I wasn't too crazy about her at first, but she really grew on me, especially since she and Emmett did their homework together every day and became BFFs. Stella gave Emmett a serious run for his money, but the reason she ultimately lost is because she looks too much like her mother. She even has the green eyes and blonde hair, and as gorgeous as she is, I kinda would like my next gen kids to not look exactly like the previous generation. Sorry, Stells! We're trying to take good care of your garden.

Stella got a job in the education career (because a total whackadoo is exactly the person you want teaching your kids, am I right?). She married her high school sweetheart, Ray(mundo). They just had a baby, Cruz (again, not my choice!). Since she and Emmett are such good friends, I expect to see a lot of Stella during gen 6!

So there's generation five - halfway there and we're still loving it! I'd say I love this gen the most, for lots of reasons, but mainly because the kids were so great!

Other Updates:
*I bit the bullet and moved the Sloanes - I just couldn't take their house anymore! Considering how big it was, there just wasn't enough space for everyone. So I built them a place across the street - and yes, I remembered to bring along all the graves and paintings by Jon. I plan on moving the last generation back to the original house, but we've got a way to go.
*Vivienne and Andrew became vampires, but Andrew took the cure potion, so he's back to normal. Being a vampire seems to suit Viv.
*Christine and Darron somehow became 4-star celebrities. I have no idea how this happened!
*Andrew and Viv are, at this point, at level nine of their careers (Rock Legend and Emperor of Evil, respectively). One more promotion each and they reach their LTWs!
*Morgan and Lee died :(
*Rosie died :(
*Jon went back to the netherworld, or whatever you want to call it. I AM SO DEPRESSED! Jon can never come back, and I missed the whole thing! It happened sometime during Christine and Darron's wedding/move out of the house. I sent Jon down to the bistro with Andrew, since they were both hungry and were BFFs, but Jon never came back. They screen never shifted automatically to Jon, like it does when Sims die the first time around, and I never got a pop-up saying anything had happened. I suddenly realized he was missing, and when I saw a gravestone at the bistro, I wanted to cry. RIP Jon, we'll miss you!
