The Maina's are next and their lot is very wet. It stays this way for most of the rotation as the rain just doesn't want to let up.

Taba and Crall don't have much time for eachother but manage to keep their relationship healthy.

With six toddlers crawling around this household is in complete chaos all the time! Only when everyone is sleeping things are quiet, but the stink remains always.

On Friday the first set of triplets (Bonolo, Bontu and Abimbola) age up to childhood.

And the rest of the round is slightly easier and calmer because the three kids can take more care of their own needs and even help out a bit. But Taba is pregnant again so there will probably be more chaos in the next round!

After all the drama Sala goes home and gives birth to her fourth child. It's a girl and she names her Latta.

Since Sala got caught kissing Sanjay and Julien is secretly having an affair with Tema Strongarm they are not doing well and are constantly fighting.

They even end up in a fist fight, Sala wins and Julien is left feeling horrible. First he loses to Sanjay and now to Sala as well.

They each walk away to tend to their own needs and just before morning they decide this isn't going to work and it's better for everyone if they end their relationship. Julien moves out.

And Sala wastes no time. The next day Sanjay walks by to see how she is doing and she asks him and Abhishek to move in. She gets pregnant the same day!

The next day Sala rolls a want to marry Sanjay and they get married that night.

?The coming days Sanjay will have to see if Sala's kids will accept him. His son Abhishek has met Sala many times but Kherv, Torv, Nundat an newborn Latta never met Sanjay before he moved in.

The Picaso's start of round 3 in my Test of Time neighbourhood. They have a pretty typical week and the first highlight is Jessica giving birth to a son they name Dob.

Next Bran is ready to age up and he is the first child in the neighbourhood.

After that everyone in the family returns to their various tasks.

And by the end of the week Dob is already a toddler!

The third round for the Parviflorum family starts with Disporum becoming a toddler and Ardisia is still pregnant.

They don't have to deal with four toddlers for long though because soon Bumelia, Helictotrichor and Linum grow up to children and things get a lot easier.

Unfortunately Ardisia's pregnancy ends in a miscarriage.

This is the first household where the parents are rolling wants to encourage their children. They are really showing that they are both high motivation sims.

Ardisia and Conopholis have a nice evening together and she becomes pregnant but it ends in miscarriage again. That didn't last long at all. Meanwhile I gave the kids an invisible toy oven over a fire so Helictotrichor can fullfill his want to gain a cooking skill point.

Conopholis and Disporum are really close and have a lot of fun together. The older kids really enjoy fishing so the household has plenty of food in the cellar fridge and Ardisia becomes pregnant yet again. Let's hope my poor simmie can give birth to a healthy baby this time.

Conopholis causes a fire while making dinner and the motive decay that follows almost causes another miscarriage for Ardisia...

But just before the end of the round she gives birth to a healthy little girl they name Tiarella.

The new Ramaswami household continue their round. Sanjay and Sala take care of their combined household with five kids while Sala runs back and forth to the rock toilet to puke. This new pregnancy is causing a lot of nausea.

Latta is now a toddler and got some lovely long hair. Sala tries to teach the other toddlers their skill when she can.

Kherv has aged up to childhood while I wasn't looking and the glow behind him is because of two tree fires at the same time.

Later that night Kherv wants to be friends with his little sister Latta. Meanwhile Torv has also aged up and I didn't notice until he was already asleep.

Ending the round with a picture of Kherv who needs to pee, because it's cute.

The households that were involved in the partner switch have now all concluded their rotations. Next up will be the Maina family.

Back to the Strongarm lot. After being kicked out of the cave by Sala, Julien Cooke goes to his lover Tema Strongarm to see if he can stay with her. She agrees and Julien moves in.

The next day Vac and Vatzoc both grow up to children.

And the rest of the round everything seems well. Julien is starting to build a friendship with Vac and Vatzoc and the dogs like him well enough. But the kids still get very upset when he kisses their mother. They all need some time to adjust to the new situation.

Sanjay Ramaswami can't stop thinking about Sala Cooke after their various meetings last week. So when she walks by on one of her hikes he always greets her.

Their relationship develops and Abhishek really enjoys having her around too.

Meanwhile Sala's husband Julien Cooke is wondering why she keeps going on hikes and returning late at night.

Don't feel too sorry for Julien though....
