Round 5 - Callani

This season began with Masamba Seoli marrying his new bride Achieng, who just stands there looking crazy. Nothing surprising here.

They had two girls the boys' age over. Unfortunately Zephania is no ladies man.

*Sigh* How am I ever going to find a wife for this one?

The Callani/Seoli's were the first to experience hail in the neighborhood. Not one of them ran for shelter...

This summer ended with double luck - twins as a result of Achieng's last pregnancy. A girl called Imani and - finally - a Seoli boy named Chinedu. Seriously, the very last baby to be born is the first boy of the Seoli's. Phew!

Round 5 - Jax

When we left the Jax's last time they were a small family with only two surviving children and some infertility problems. However, this round started with Makena finally fulfilling a pregnancy. She gave birth to a little girl, Yewande, meaning "mother has returned" (for real!)

The first thing Tafari does when the girl arrives is cuddle her and tell her he's happy she's born. Too cute!

Lekan continues to care for his little sister even in his teens. This family has been unlucky but it's definitely the cutest one.

Yewande grows into a toddler with the help of her brother.

He's just as good with her as he is to Temitope. This guy is going to be a great father even though he's not even a family sim.

Tafari and Makena actually even manage to have a second son before growing too old. Here's Tafadzwa!

Lastly, Temitope becomes a teen family sim. She's a neat and nice, but lazy girl.

Round 5 - Seoli

The round began with Masozi telling her cheating husband to get off her lot and go live with the crazy woman he chose over her. Masamba is devastated and immediately starts plotting how he's going to get his revenge by stealing newspapers and kicking garbage cans.

With only four people in the household, not much happens other than birthdays. The youngest one, Chinwe, becomes a child...

... And the middle one a teenager. Abeni turns out to be a neat popularity sim.

Meanwhile, their father runs past the lot ten times per day, kicking and stealing. How very mature, I'm sure Masozi must be regretting her decision to leave you a lot...

It turns out my sarcasm was correct. For some reason, he gets invited on one of these sabotaging-trips and they end up WooHoo-ing. Oh, sims. But since Masozi is too old to deliver him his longed for son, he'll be staying with Achieng whether he wants to or not.

Round 5 - Nixeira

The Nixeira family hasn't lost any of their children (yet, I don't know what the future holds), and this round started with baby number 6 being born. It's a third son and he gets the name Themba.

Even though they are a big family, there isn't much drama going on in the household. Most of the children have a lot of nice points (I believe Rudo's meter is full) and they spend their days fishing, playing and taking care of the kids. All I have to do is make sure they eat. So not much worth documenting happened, except some birthdays. Nthanda became a child.

And Nkosana grew into a knowledge sim. He's active, playful and of course, nice. I've noticed most of the teens of generation 2 has the knowledge aspiration, I use an online dice for this decision so it's purely random! I don't mind it though.

The only one who doesn't behave flawlessly is the oldest child, Monifa, who likes to noogie her younger siblings...

The little boy Themba grew up to a toddler.

And Pilirani gives birth to the family's seventh and final child, a girl named Tatenda. Not bad for a mother with the romance aspiration! With only one aspiration failure, too.

Round 5 - Zima

Round 5 began with the birth of the Zima family's last child, a boy named Andile. Even he agrees that he looks a lot more like his father than mother.

Mudiwa became a child, looking somewhat better than he did as a toddler.

One day, an aggressive wolf enter the lot. The family wolf Asta noticed that he was about to attack Dalitso and reacted.

A fight broke out. Asta fought bravely, but in the end she lost, and died. The mean white wolf wasn't satisfied with this, but proceeded with attacking Dalitso anyway. He was very injured, but survived.

Later that night, the wolf returned and proved himself to be the most evil wolf of the neighborhood, as he attacked little Mudiwa, and with no Asta to protect him, the boy died.

Of course, the family was devastated. Hopefully the little brother Andile, who grew up into a toddler, will live longer.
