No.  But my last family, the Greenreich Family, was on Generation 15 (pregnant with 16) when I got my computer back and lost them trying to move them over.  I just want to get the Summerstone Family up to where they were by then, as a just a simple goal.
So you are never getting it, or you will when they get to Gen 16?

February 20th is just a goal for her.

Maybe someday I will.

But there is still a LOT I haven't done with TS2, and I don't want to move on just yet Smile A lot of people have reached their goals, or are just ready for TS3, I'm not just yet.  But someday, perhaps!!!

Oh ok lol

I can understand that Smile  I never did much with the Sims 2 because I never found this site.  But I would do more now, but  everyone is starting fresh with the Sims 3, I thought I could just do more with that.  Also, everything looks way cooler on there lol!

Dear Journal,

It's been a while since my last update, but sooo much has heppened!  It's almost hard to believe all the things that have happened since the last I wrote in these pages.  Your pages.  I guess there's nothing like starting from the top!

With my little one on the way and due at any time, I began eating healthier. I did find out from one of my appointments, that it was going to be a little boy.  I was so excited!  I had a couple of names picked out, mostly in relation to whoever the father was.  But, then I decided to honor my Twin Brother, and ultimately when he is born, his name will be Gavin as well.

Naturally, I began sleeping more, and throughout the day.

[Image: 032.jpg]


One day I was heading out to pay my rent, when Mary stopped me and hugged me.  "Oh, Gabrielle!  Look at you.  You're getting so big!  How is the baby doing?"  I was ... shocked, to say the least, that Mary was so happy.  "He's doing fine."  "Oh, so it's a he?  That's so great!"  I couldn't believe ... she was genuinly happy, and practically glowing herself!  "I know, I'm very excited!"  We spent several hours just talking about the baby, and my plans for him.  I'm no longer part of that ... legacy family ... so naturally my child will have a free run of his life, but every mother has ideas for their children.

Later that day, Jill stopped me and we talked for a little while.  Most of what she had to say was jibberish.  I think the woman was drunk!  Well, with the problems she and Derek had been having, I guess I couldn't blame her.

[Image: 035.jpg]


I've discovered that I absolutely LOVE salmon!  Maybe it was just the pregnancy hormones, but I ate sooo much salmon during my pregnancy it was almost unreal!  I was afraid my baby would come out a fish!

[Image: 036.jpg]


Then one night as I was sleeping I thought I'd wet the bed.  I was having a terrible dream about Gavin, and his car accident.  And I guess because I was so wet in the real world, that in my dream I ended up in a flooded ditch, unable to save him.  That was when I woke up, and discovered my water had broke.  I screamed, not so much from pain but from fear.  I needed to get to the hospital!  Jill had been walking by, and heard me.  She called for an ambulence, and within ten minutes, I was on my way to the hospital.

[Image: 037.jpg]


I had my baby boy with very few complications, and in no time at all, we were back home.  He's my little man, and I am so in love with him.  I play with him frequently, and I really feel like we're bonding.  But, I knew it would be time soon.  Time to find out who his father really was.  I was really enjoying ... having him all to myself.  But, it wouldnt be fair to Gavin to not know who his father was.

[Image: 038.jpg]


One night I invited Mary and Nathan over, and they were so thrilled to see the little boy.  Nathan held him first ... he had a mixed look on his face.  A look of pride, and a look of sorrow.  "He's mine, Gabrielle."  Mary and I paused, and looked over.  "What? How would you know that?"  Nathan rocked Gavin.  "He looks so much like Isaiah ... and Isaiah takes after me, aside from Mary's dark hair."  Mary sighed.  "Nathan, don't get attached ... you can't be sure he is your son."  "He is, I just know it."  "I want Chris to meet him, too. Before I take Gavin for paternity testing.  I just need to see his reaction."  Nathan simply nodded, but continued rocking my son.

[Image: 039.jpg]


I invited Chris over next.  He picked up Gavin, and the look on his face made my heart melt.  He didn't say anything right away, but he did cuddle Gavin for a very long time.  He eventually put Gavin back into his crib, and we sat down on the couch.  He tenderly wrapped his arm around me, and took my hand in his.  "Gabrielle ... there's no way for me to know for sure if that beautiful little boy is defiantely mine."  He had a small smile.  "But, whether he turns out to be mine or not doesn't matter.  Tonight, I didn't just come over here to see that child, I came over here to see you, seriously."  I must have blushed, I felt so silly.

[Image: 040.jpg]


He then pulled me into his lap, and and I couldn't help it.  I giggled.  He smiled.  "Gabrielle, whether that ... whether Gavin is mine or not, I want you to marry me."  I ... was in such ... shock.  "But, if he's Nathans,"  "Then so be it.  Nathan is a good guy, and I know you want him in Gavin's life.  But, Gabrielle, I want to be in your life.  Please?"  I could not believe what he was saying!  "Chris ... I don't know if I'll ever want another child."  "That's fine.  That's something we can discuss some other day, should one of us ever feel that urge."  This ... was too good to be true!

[Image: 041.jpg]


[Image: 042.jpg]


But, then I realized something.  Something ... a little scarey.  "Chris ..."  "Hm?"  "I ... don't know anything about you!"  He laughed, and I felt so stupid.  Here I was, practically throwing myself at this man's invitation for marriage ... and knew nothing about him ... but his name!  I slid from his lap and moved away from the couch, he followed me.  "Well, what do you want to know?  I won't hide anything, just ask!"  What could I ask him?  "Well ... I don't know ... exactly."  "Okay, then let me just go."  "I looked at him, confused.  Go?  "My favorite color is green, I'm 25 years old, I'm an only child, my life-long dream is to become the chief of staff at the Belladonna Cove Hospital, I've actually got an interview tomorrow at the Children's Hospital, I'm allergic bees, I love Pepsi, I really am not a fan of most vegetables, and Chris is actually my middle name."

[Image: 043.jpg]


[Image: 044.jpg]


I about died!  He had just given me some random pieces of information about his life.  Really, he did!  "Chris is your middle name?"  I'm not sure why I picked that piece of information to clerify, I was stupified.  "Yeah.  See, that night at the club, I saw you, and you were so beautiful.  When you introduced yourself as Gabrielle, I decided to give you my middle name, Chris."  "Okay.  Why?"  He then laughed.  "Because ... my first name is Gabriele!"  I ... about died.  I started to laugh with him.  "Seriously?!"  "Yep!" I continued to laugh.  Gabriel and Gabrielle!  Oh man, that would be so silly!  He stood there, smiling at me.

[Image: 045.jpg]


"So ... what do you say?  If you still need to know more, how about we go out to dinner one night?"  He smiled.  "Okay.  One week."  He tilted his head.  "One week?"  "Give me one week to really get to know you.  To make sure I can really see myself being with you.  Whether you're Gavin's father or not, I can't be with you if I don't know for sure I can be with you."  He nodded.  "That seems fair.  So, you and me ... dinner ... Friday night?"  I smiled.  "Its' a date!"

[Image: 046.jpg]


After Chris ... I still can't call him Gabriele! ... left, I picked up Gavin and fed him.  After feeding him, I just stood there, holding him.  "I really hope I can do this, for your sake."  My eyes brimmed with tears.  "I never realized how simple things can really impact something.  And you need support of a real family.  Gavin, your life isn't going to be easy, and that's my fault."  I cradled him, and he just smiled at me.  "But, I will do my best to make it a successfull, even if it a bit difficult, life."
