Sugah's SP Couples & Their Offspring

Sugah Suvi was the first sim from this site I downloaded when I fired up my computer in MN. She'll always be special for me   Both Suvi and Jacob are still single in my 'hood. I don't know whether they're compatible or not but if the are (or can be made to be  ) it might be interesting for me to try the same pairing.

I've had a few toddlers who were, er, interesting. But those eyebrows on Sabrina??? I don't think I've ever seen a RL baby - or a sim baby with Groucho eyebrows. Is that the way she 'popped out'?

I agree she is a very cute infant.  Now I'm curious to see her as a toddler.

Awww, Mac! Thank you. You have made my sunny Sunday!

Oh, I would love that! Yes, please and thank you!  
I created Jacob about 8 months after Suvi and had no idea when I moved him into the hood, he'd have so much in common with her.
They are a match made in SimHeaven. Here's hoping a few sparks fly when you check Suvi & Jacob's chemistry in your 'hood, too, Mac.  

Oh, and Sabrina's eyebrows look to be Maxi's rope-like dark ones to me.
Not the most appealing for sure! I always change them when the bambini become toddlers.

Sabrina looks cute as an infant, looking like Dad with the blue eyes! Sometimes toddlerhood makes them not so cute.

I can't tell if Sabrina has her mama's eyes or daddy's, Sandy. But as a toddler, she seems to resemble her dad's features & dark hair.
We shall see!
And you're right. Some toddlers have a face only a mommy and daddy could love!  

Thank you for your comments, Sandy, Mac & Ari.

Wow!  Look at my grandsimmies!!! I'm so proud!

I think Zach in particular is going to be turning some heads with those gorgeous eyes!

Thoroughly enjoying this experience, Sugah.

Sabrina looks like she's going to be a stunner too!

You have me curious to see that toddler face, and whether or not she will grow out of (or in to?) it. She's a very cute infant, so hopefully she won't be too appearance-challenged.

You should be! Your Sims have made some beautiful babies, Toni.

... They're dreamy! He's the future mayor of Tres Lagos (should definitely win the female population's votes)!

Here's hoping, ladies. Let us pray!    

I was verrrrrry tired after playing with a verrrrrry active 2 year old for over 9 hours yesterday, so this isn't my best capture.  


I think one of the reasons I suggested we put "up close and personal" snapshots of the (founding) Offspring couples is it gives us all a better opportunity to compare the facial features of the offspring with their parents'.
It's part of the fun of this experiment in Sims' genetics, I think.  

This is how Sabrina's features appear to my eyes (thus far):
When I look at Sabrina's nose, in particular, I think I am seeing a rather long one like her dad's with the bridge being wider like her mom's.
Her hair is dark like dad's, eye color seems to be her mom's (hard to tell, but they don't look as blue as her dad's) and skin tone is warm like mom's.
Her eyes are set funny, but I'm hoping she will grown into her facial features, as I've said.  

So far she doesn't seem to resemble the Roarke's precious pittie, Rico, at all! So that's something...  

Next up:
Elle's gorgeous redhead [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], Ari's snackolicious [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and Em's lovely [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] have moved into Tres Lagos.
Here's hoping they all find the perfect match to fall in love with so these beautiful Sims can begin adding their stunning DNA to the 'hood's offspring!

She looks darling in the photo - I like how she turned out with the warm skin tone and bright eyes. I'll be curious to see how she looks in your next pic.

I do have a question about providing a photo (in game) of the sim couple - if we want to directly compare features to their offspring, would it be better to get a neutral face shot of them - rather than a cutesy one - like with mine, I have the couples all cuddling on the couch. It's cute because they're happy, but doesn't do anything to show off their actual features since they're grinning like, well, lovebirds . I may go back and edit mine at a later date so we can all see them better.

Thank you for visiting, Ari.
I will try to get a better snapshot of little Sabrina soon. I like her coloring, too.  

Good question, btw!
I am glad you've brought it up and I've answered it [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.].

I like Suvi and Jacob a lot. They make a nice couple. (Hmm, Suvi might make a good choice for a lighter haired sim in my hood . . .) Sabrina looks like she's grown into a cute toddler. I like her eyes.

Yes, it makes her unusual-looking, and very cute from what I can see.

I think you are spot on here!

That make sense. I agree it would be better But oh, it's so much fun to present our simmies in their cuddly and cute moments, isn't it?

Sabrina is so cute!

Celeste is a beauty; I love that picture of her and the family pet. That hair is one of my faves, too!

Celeste has grown into a pretty child.

I'll say she has. Beautiful skin and gorgeous eyes.

Sometimes two good looking simmies, can have the most um..'unusual' looking offspring.  But, I guess that's how it works in RL too!

I think we've got another little lady who resembles her daddy (as Celeste resembles Zen), but with mama's full lips.

I bet her big blue eyes, dark skin and hair combination will continue to be striking!

Isn't she lovely?

 Twins!! They are so cute though!! One with each skin color

It really doesn't much matter who you pair him up to do it with, either. Good genes, that one.

I used the boolprop testingcheatsenabled true trick:
Upon typing in the cheat, I leave their abode and then re-enter it.

I've never been big on hacks and mods, I use as few as possible. I don't think you have to leave and re-enter, either; I know I don't. You do, however, have to make sure you save the lot when you finish playing it. Also, you are not stuck with the games cap on the amount of points in total. Use as many or few as you want.

Sandy wrote:

Do we need to type anything to take it off afterward, like typing the same thing but with false at the end?

Here is a page explaining the cheat in more detail: Boolprop Cheat Wiki. The key to using any testing cheat is to avoid the items you are not familiar with. Most use this cheat without incident, just google anything you are not sure about, or you can always ask us.

Welcome to the Benedetto Famiglia Isabella!

I didn't get get to see Isabella as an infant, the picture is gone. She really is a lovely toddler and child, though.

Désirée is very sweet, Sugah, and Calista is a real beauty. It's interesting that your 'hood has only had girls so far. I wonder what that's about.

Sugalicious wrote:

(I'm hoping she grows into her strong, long chin. )

I think a longer hairstyle would take away from it and bring out her other features. Just a thought.

Sugalicious wrote:

He is the first boy to be born in my Tres Lagos neighborhood!

Tres Lagos now has two new males in the 'hood.  

Two handsome boys! How wonderful!

Sugalicious wrote:

I was only able to play for a wee bit tonight, but just enough for Callista to grow into a lovely child.

Here is a snapshot of the stunning Callista King, daughter of (Aussie) Will & (Island Girl) Anaïs as a teenager:    

She just continues to blossom beautifully, doesn't she?

He's a cutie, but like his big sis, Désirée, he may grow more into his looks as a teen.  

I think the longer hair works to his advantage like I said may work for his sister. He is a cutie, though, and his sister's not bad either.

Elle, thank you so much for taking the time to respond so thoroughly, my friend.
I always love reading your comments and observations.

Isabella's pics as an infant, toddler and child are [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], posted on April 11, I believe, and [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] she is as a teen (May 3 post). Isabella has grown into such a lovely teenager. She's a great kid, too.
I really love Anthony, (your) KimberLee and all of the children in the Benedetto family, including their alien child.
They are truly a delightful, fun, lovely family!

Hubby might have to work from home this weekend, so I am hoping to get back to the Offspring Project.
While revisiting my thread and catching up in some of our participants' threads here this evening, I've realized how much I miss some of my SPOP families MUCHO!

I felt the same way about Avett and Malika, and Jake and Esther. I look forward to the times they come up in the rotation.

Don't you just love it when a certain family or Sim finds a special place in your heart so that you look forward to visiting them often and seeing what life brings to their world, Cher?
I know I do!

Nerissa and Nathaniel and their kids and (now) grandkids, not to mention Sugah and Keanu and their kids and grandkids, and I do have this thing for Agatha!

Sugah, I have missed out on so much! So, so sorry to have neglected my Sugah Family. I have not been getting my email notifications. I should have been suspicious. I dropped the ball. That is what I get for being so reliant on technology.

Your Offspring Project has been a Great Success! Inspiring, Fascinating and Fun.

Even if RL keeps some of us distracted or unable to complete our projects, all contributions are so very much appreciated.

We have been entertained and educated (in my case) by one and all. All the convivial effort has brought us closer together.

Your personal project has produced some gorgeous and interesting offspring. Thank you so much for all that you provide for your SP family.

I agree, Nonni :) RL is keeping me away from my computer too But I love to read all about everybody's offsprings.
