Chapter 3: Three Becomes Five

Alexander was a much loved baby, his father in particular doted on him.


Belly kisses!


First birthday, here come those fun toddler years!


"Fun toddler years" = "fun" things like potty training.


Alexander enjoyed learning new things with his educational toys.


Despite being a romance sim Dagmar was an attentive mom.


Derek helps with every aspect of raising Alexander. Doing some potty training after a long day at work.


Goofing off!


Alexander's first steps.


Still in love, Derek wants to try for another baby.


Dagmar has other things on her mind, like spending a bit more time with the maid while Derek's at work. (A romance sim can't suppress all her urges you know).


Derek was so exited when Alexander learned to talk.


Particularly when he was able to say Daddy!


All too soon it was time for Alexander to grow up and go to school.


Birthday cheers!


Here he goes.


How quickly they grow up. Cleaning up after birthday cake.


Alexander lost no time testing out his burping skills on his Dad's podium.


Getting help with homework.


Derek has his wish, Dagmar is pregnant again and he proudly paints a portrait of her.


Alexander enjoys meeting kids his own age. Playing Mary-Mack with Marsha.


Cops and Robbers


Ha ha, you missed me!


Aaaah you got me!


Derek enjoys meeting Alexander's friends and occasionally challenges them to a chess game.


A nice family dinner.


Now that he's going to be a big brother and soon a teenager, Alexander decides to broach some important topics with his Dad.


Alexander had two friends over when Dagmar went into labor and they all crowded into the bedroom while the maid calmly continues to make the bed.


Toddler birthdays seem to come so quickly.


Wait, there's two of them! Yup, Dagmar had twins Anthony and Astrid making Derek a very happy family sim.


Good thing there are two parents for things like potty training!


And teaching those important skills, here Derek teaches Astrid.


And Dagmar teaches Anthony.


Happily birthday time comes quickly. In some cases too quickly, Alexander grew into a teen without a party or even cake. He is a knowledge sim and is looking forward to helping his siblings as they start school.

Sweet...more pancakes! And I'm glad that they get a lot of use out of their hot tub. It looks intense.

Belly kisses are the best! *melts* Hey, potty training beats having to continue to change diapers, right? ACK! I guess Dagmar wasn't waxing poetic about how good Derek was in bed. *sigh* Romance sims... *shakes her head* Hehe, Alexander's a cute kid. Let's just hope mom remembers to stay a bit subtle with her extra-marital affairs! Wow, congrats on the twins!! Heh, yeah, those birthdays can definitely sneak up on you, even when you -think- you're prepared!
