Chapter 162

Elodie decided to take Ralphie for a walk in Brindleton Bay!

Elodie: "Let me stop by the vet and get some wellness treats for all the pets first."

Ralphie: "Do we really need wellness treats?"

Trust me, when you have 50 cats and dogs, you absolutely do.

Elodie bought about 20 treats.

Now she can resume her walk with Ralphie.

Elodie: "It's a beautiful day!"

It's such a beautiful day that Jax and Zhora decided to bring the twins down to the park.

Jaxton: "I was in the middle of cooking, but okay."

Zhora: "You can cook on the BBQ, babe. It's so beautiful here!"

Paisley: "I love it here!"

Paisley: "Is this a doggy park?!"

Zhora: "Hopefully this doesn't make her want to get another dog. We have enough dogs at home."

Aww, so cute!

Paisley: "I wanna hug a doggy!"

Jaxton: "Zhora was right, I can still cook here. I'll make some burgers for the kids."

Elodie: "Let's go, Ralphie!"

Ralphie: "Woof, woof!"

Zhora: "Do you guys like the park?"

Paisley: "You mean the dog park? Yes, I love it, mommy!"

Erick: "Why are you being so sassy with mommy? She's scary sometimes."

Zhora: "Dang right I am."

Elodie: "I think we should make a stop so that you can do your... business."

Elodie: "Alright, Ralphie! Go potty!"

Looks like Jax finished making the burgers!

The twins love them!

Paisley: "They're so yummy!"

Erick: "Can I have another one already?"

Elodie: "If only there was a cool breeze like this one in Oasis Springs sometimes."

Ralphie: "Wait! I smell something! BORK, BORK!"

Elodie: "He'd better not keep doing this."

Jaxton: "You're saying you wanna battle me? The chess master?"

Zhora: "Chess? That's for rookies. Let's play Xitunangimantu. It's what I used to always play on Sixam!"

Elodie walked Ralphie down to a spot with a little shade.

There was already another sim sitting there, though.

Elodie: "Whoops, looks like someone's already here."

Elodie: "Hi, are we bothering you if we sit here for a little while?"

Jeff: "Of course not, have a seat."

Elodie: "Are you sure? We could sit somewhere else."

Jeff: "Of course not, it'd be my pleasure to sit next to a beautiful girl like you any day."

Elodie: "That was smooth."

Ralphie: "Another treasure! BORK, BORK!"

Elodie: "Be good while you're not on your leash, Ralphie!"

Ralphie: "I'll just chill right here."

Elodie: "Who's a good boy?"

Jeff: "Were you talking to me?"

Elodie: "Uh..."

Elodie: "Anyways, it's nice to get out and get away from my crazy family sometimes."

Jeff: "Haha, my family can be pretty crazy sometimes too."

Ralphie: "This man has no idea what crazy even means."

Elodie: "Hahaha! You don't know crazy until you've met my family!"

Jeff: "How bad can they be?"

You have no idea.

Elodie: *He's super cute!*

Jeff: *She's gorgeous, but I don't do 'love'. Time to score.*

Jeff: "So, uh... do you wanna come back to my place?"

Elodie: "What kind of girl do you think I am?"

What a great distraction.

Elodie: "Confetti is the best!"

Jeff: "But woohoo with me is way better than confetti."

Elodie: "Oh, is it now?"

Elodie: "Nothing is better than confetti."

Jeff: "You wouldn't be saying that if you let me show you."

Jeff: "You're gorgeous, by the way."

Elodie: "Oh, I know."

Elodie: "You're not too bad yourself. What's your name?"

Jeff: "Ah, I don't usually give out names, but my name is Jeff."

Jeff: "And you are?" *Blows kiss*

Elodie: "Hehehe, Elodie."

Elodie: *He's so charming, what's happening to me?*

Jeff: *It's working, I'm about to woohoo with another beautiful woman. That'll be the 5th on this week.*

What a sleaze ball.

*Kiss*

Jeff: "Was that good?"

Elodie: "Yeah, not bad."

Jeff: "What do you say I show you my woohoo that's better than confetti?"

Elodie: "Hmm... I guess you've earned it."

Jeff: "YES!!!"

Jeff: "What about right here in this bush?"

Elodie: "Hahaha! It's a bit wild, but okay!"

Elodie, no!

Poor Elodie doesn't realise what a sleaze this guy is.

Unfortunately, it looks like she won't find out until it's too late.

I'm ready to punch this guy.

Elodie: "That was way better than confetti!"

Elodie: "Was that too soon to woohoo?"

Way too soon.

Jeff: "Uh, I'm sorry, Emily, but I've gotta go."

Elodie: "It's Elodie. Can we at least exchange numbers so we can see each other again?"

Jeff: "Uh... sorry, I usually woohoo with no strings attached. I'm gonna go now."

Elodie: "What the heck?! Are you serious?! How could I be so stupid?"

A few days later, Elodie hasn't been feeling too well.

Elodie: "I really hope it's negative."

Elodie: "Ah... I guess not."

Elodie is pregnant!

Elodie: "Oh my god, what am I gonna do?"

Elodie: "I can't even get in contact with Jeff... if that was even his real name. Can I really raise a baby all by myself?"

Erick: "This is almost as fun as the doggy park!"

Paisley: "I love the doggy park!"

Happy birthday, Erick!

Paisley: "Why are you sad, mommy?"

Zhora: "I don't want my babies to age up."

Happy birthday, Paisley!

Erick aged up into a child!

So did Paisley! They're so adorable!

Paisley doesn't seem too happy about it.

Paisley: "How dare you age me up."

Woah, you were such a happy toddler, what happened?

Paisley: "Exactly, I was a happy toddler, not a happy child. Age me back."

Sorry, can't do that. You're still adorable, though!

Jaxton: "Work was horrible."

Speaking of work, Jax has to level up his mixology skill to be promoted in his job.

Jaxton: "This is easier than I thought it would be."

Paisley: "This doesn't taste too great."

Jaxton: "How dare my own daughter insult my gumbo."

Mackenzie: "Hence why I don't cook."

No, you don't cook because you can't be trusted.

This is why the dogs are always filthy.

Jaxton: "No one will ever insult my gumbo again!"

Jaxton: "I'll make sure of it."

I love these pet water bowls!

Elodie has been really down lately, she isn't sure if she'll be able to raise a baby on her own.

Zhora: "My husband is the best cook ever."

Paisley: "No he's not, his gumbo sucks."

Jaxton: "Try... not... to... cry..."

Astrid: "What's Paisley talking about? Daddy's gumbo is the best!"

Paisley: "Ugh, I bet this is gonna be stupid."

Why are you such an angry child? You were such a happy baby!

Paisley: "Because this family is a pain in the neck, that's why!"

Paisley: "Woah!"

Paisley: "This is actually kinda fun!"

There's that smile!

Jaxton: "Apple pie, apple pie, apple pie!"

Jaxton: "I love apple pie! It was delicious!"

Jaxton: "Oh, yeah. Back to mixing drinks."

Paisley: "Did y'all know I beat the high score in blic bloc?"

Zhora: "Say what?! Now I gotta reclaim my throne."

John: "I thought I was the blic bloc king."

Paisley: "I beat your score by a landslide, it was easy."

Zhora: "Bring it on, I'm gonna be the queen again."

More much needed baths for the dogs.

Zhora: "I can smell some delicious apple pie."

Jaxton: "Did someone say apple pie?!"

Elodie: "Thank gosh I ate all the apple pie before Jax could get to it."

Elodie: "And it was so delicious that it took my mind off of... everything."

Elodie: "What the heck am I gonna do?"

Elodie: "Can I really raise the baby on my own?"

Of course you can, you're a strong woman with an amazing career going for you! You can do anything!

Elodie: "Hey, I guess you're right! I'll be an amazing mommy with or without Jeff."

Paisley: "Wanna see who can finish their homework the fastest?"

Erick: "Is everything a competition to you?"

Paisley: "Sounds like you're scared."

Zhora: "My daughter is my mini-me, isn't she?"

Definitely.

All of the Parsons kids are being good and doing their homework!

Mackenzie: "Ugh!"

Mackenzie: "Did Paisley really beat my high score on this game too?"

Mackenzie: "I'll show her."

You look very determined.

Elodie made some cookies! She has to increase her cooking skill for her job.

Paisley: "I want some cookies!"

Asparagus is always jumping in puddles or trash piles.

Paisley: "I found these awesome bubbles."

Paisley: "Let's see what they look like."

Just like her mama.

Paisley: "They're awesome!"

Paisley: "Look how many there are!"

Paisley: "More bubbles!"

Paisley: "Look at them!"

Paisley: "They're so pretty!"

Elodie's belly is starting to pop!

Erick: "Paisley is your favorite, isn't she?! Just say it!"

Zhora: "Woah, I never said that."

Paisley: "She never said it, but we all know it's true."

Asparagus: "I just found another pile of trash!"

Simmie: "Where?!"

Simmie: "Let's go play in it!"

Elodie: "I may be pregnant, but I'm still a mixology pro."

Elodie: "You see these skills?"

They're awesome!

Elodie: "Whoops, the lid almost fell off."

Ralphie: "Let's play in the puddle from the broken sink, dad!"

Asparagus: "You read my mind, son."

Vanessa: "This song is my jam!"

Elodie: "Maybe I shouldn't have put a stereo above my bar."

Elodie: "It makes me wanna dance all the time!"

Elodie: "This is what you call skilled."

Erick: "I love daddy more than mommy."

Astrid: "Me too!"

Zhora: "What?! How could my own children forsake me like this?"

Paisley: "They can try all they want, I'll still be the favorite."

Zhora: "What are you looking at, stupid chipmunk?"

Erick: "The chipmunk isn't looking at our favorite parent, that's for sure."
