Round 5 - Callius

Although the Callius family is intact from last round, both parts of the family made losses in the Colosseum, losing a brother each.
Row 1: Manlius Callarai (Head, sitting)
Row 2: Valens Zimeca (slave, standing), Herminia Callius (wife, standing); holding: Titiana Callius (heir)
New since last round is the slave Valens, who's replacing (his grandfather) old Dalitso who passed away.

With spring finally in the air, the family definitely enjoyed some outdoors time in the garden.

Little Titiana learned to walk outside, but the talking was taught in the nursery.

Herminia had her birthday into an adult.

Here she is, looking all typical Jax, as she should.

Her belly didn't show in her teenage dress, but she was supposed to have a small bump - it soon became a bigger one, however.

There seems to be a wave of burglary in the neighborhood. The Callius fountain is the second one to be put in a small black sack and carried away, somehow...

The same night as the burglary, Herminia starts giving birth to hers and Manlius second child.

Her husband seems pleased that she had their first son. They name him Martialis.

The following evening, Titiana had her second birthday.

Stinky, but still adorable. Pretty faces are rare in this neighborhood.

Being a mother doesn't come naturally to the romance sim Herminia, who does just about what she has to for the children. As you might see, she's already expecting their third.

Little Martialis has his birthday, but his father is too preoccupied with being angry at the thief who visited them to take much notice.

He's a copy of his sister, but at least he's a cute copy, so I'm not complaining. Much. Hehe.

Manlius is a romance sim too, but as his son grew up he rolled family as second ambition and suddenly he felt like being the one to teach his son how to walk. Herminia didn't mind.

Right before visiting the Baths, her belly grew once more. We still have to wait for next round for the birth, though.

Out in the city, Titiana discovered she easily could make a playmate out of the family slave Valens, and they became friends.

Back home, Herminia takes on teaching Martialis how to talk, while Titiana and Valens discover they have similar interests.

However, Valens can't always be playing with Titiana. When she plays in the nursery, her little brother likes to join her. He's not much fun because of his size, according to Titiana, but he beats playing alone.
