Please note I'm currently working on the new site. I didn't want to take the site offline though, so you can still visit it. However me working on the site while it's still online means a lot of the pages will appear wonky. But not to worry, it won't take too long. Happy

Happy news! If you are a regular here or if you follow me on social media (Twitter, Facebook page, Facebook group, Instagram or Tumblr), you'll probably know about my pregnancy. I posted about health issues and pregnancy complications in January.

Well a few weeks ago on February 11 (a day after my birthday) I gave birth to a healthy baby boy. His name is Levi and he's our third son. Brothers Seth and Quinn are really proud.

As you can probably imagine I'm a bit busy with the baby at the moment. We're not getting much sleep (if any) so I definitely need some time to recover.

Whenever I have some free time (and energy) I will post custom content, as always!

Normally I would post this message on the blog, rather than the news section. But I also realise that most people probably don't actively follow the blog. Hence the decision to post it here instead.

Some of you may know that my partner tszcheetah and I have been expecting our third baby since shortly after we got married in May. I kept in mind that I had pre-eclampsia during my previous pregnancy, and chances were that I would be suffering from this again in another pregnancy, but this wasn't set in stone. Now fortunately as far as we know I'm not currently suffering from pre-eclampsia. But I am being monitored closely. And I'm experiencing a lot of pain (and pain attacks) and complications in this pregnancy, leaving me unable to work on anything that has anything to do with my computer. This includes my job and unfortunately also SNW. I'm mostly on bed rest, so I'm either on the sofa or in bed. I hate that I'm not able to do anything. But I'm mostly in and out of the hospital at the moment, for regular appointments, but also for tests and what not. I'm really tired and ill, and with only 4 weeks to go until the due date, I'm just not very active at the moment. And I wanted to let you all know. As always I will still be back, the moment my health allows me to work at my PC again.

There's a small chance I will work on the site (Laundry Day stuff pack article and perhaps a video) later this week, seeing as we purchased a Steam Link device, so I can use my games whilst in the living room. I have yet to try this out, but I'm eager to do so. I miss playing The Sims (or any other game for that matter!)

I would also like to point out that because of my health issues and my due date being in less than 4 weeks (I'm due on my birthday, Feb 10), we are likely to be very slow responding to messages and comments regarding the website and the Graphics Rules Maker. Especially since my husband is also ill at the moment, and he's the one behind the Graphics Rules Maker tool. We will get back to your messages when we are feeling better. Thank you so much for reading and understanding.

Love xoxo ♥

Today is the day! The Sims™ 4 Toddler Stuff Pack* is now available for purchase, introducing some fun new objects and clothing to fuel your Sim Toddler's creativity.

One of the newest additions with this Stuff Pack, is the ability to host play dates for your little ones. The toddler life stage is an important time where they are learning how to walk, communicate their feelings, and start forming their own little personalities. Hosting a play date for your little one is a great way to build up relationships and fuel their creativity.

To host a play date, make sure you select an adult Sim in the household and use their phone to select “Plan a Social Event,” followed by “Play Date”. Here you can select the Sims you'd like to invite over for a play date (don't worry, the little ones caregivers will come with them to join in on the fun!) Once your play date has started, your Toddlers will enjoy spending time with their friends playing with their new dollhouse, taking a ride down their new slide, and/or crawling around in new colorful tunnels.

Sim parents can also cook up some delicious backyard food with your new grill. Set up your new shade to protect your young ones from the harmful rays, and enjoy bonding with fellow parents while watching them play.

We can't wait to see what fun your little ones will have with the addition of The Sims 4 Toddler Stuff Pack. Be sure to follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and Twitch, Like us on Facebook, and Subscribe to our YouTube channel.

*Requires The Sims 4 game (sold separately) and all game updates to play.

Furthermore Create a Pet comes with a paint feature and a colour wheel (no, CASt isn't returning for the entire game, it's a pets only feature, but it's incredibly cool!)

Get ready for things to get more adorable with The Sims™ 4 Toddler Stuff Pack*, coming August 24, 2017!

 

Since the addition of toddlers in The Sims 4 at the beginning of this year, we have seen many Sims expand their families and open their homes to an assortment of unique and adorable little tykes. Now, with The Sims 4 Toddler Stuff Pack, your Sims tots will get some extra ways to express themselves as they continue to develop their personalities, interests, and friendships.

The Sims 4 Toddler Stuff Pack provides a variety of adorable new outfits for you to enjoy. Whether dressed as cute little foxes, or sprightly fairies, your tot's imagination will run wild. But don't worry, clothing isn't just about play time. Your fashion-focused toddlers will enjoy a more stylish ensemble to fit their tastes, alongside new hair styles as well. 

And what's a toddler pack without new tot-sized playground equipment?! From hopping into the ball pit, to scooting down their new slide, or scuttling through colorful tunnels, there is lots of fun to be had. In fact, they can even play make-believe while watching their new play structure turn into a pirate shipwreck resting on the ocean floor, or exploring the galaxy as an astronaut - the choice is theirs. You can even invite your neighbors' toddlers over for a play date! Let loose, make new friends, and let your Sim parents increase the fun through story telling, and cooking up the tyke's favorite foods.

For those of you that are attending Gamescom in Cologne from August 22 - 26th, The Sims 4 Toddler Stuff Pack will be playable prior to its release! Visit us in the Family & Friends Zone in Hall 10.2.

We can't wait to see what new play areas you create for your tots when The Sims 4 Toddler Stuff releases on August 24, 2017. Keep up to date on everything about The Sims 4 Toddler Stuff by following us on Twitter, Instagram, and Twitch, Like us on Facebook, and Subscribe to our YouTube channel.
