Many months had passed and Laci still had not revealed her feelings to Lee. Too much had taken place in that time for her to feel comfortable verbalizing it. When she was certain that Lee would reciprocate the feelings is when she would share with him how she felt. But still, through the many months that had gone by Laci was sure her love only grew deeper for him.

After the talk he had had with his brother Tim, Anthony couldn’t go home. He drove around for a while and decided to stop at the club across the street from his restaurant. He felt the need for a beverage before going home. He didn’t usually go to the Lu Lu Lounge, but it looked pretty quiet and he needed some time to think at a place where he wouldn’t bump into anyone he knew. As he walked in the music was loud and the atmosphere was dark. He could remain anonymous and clear his head. He sat at the bar and ordered a drink and just sat quietly thinking over the conversation that had taken place earlier.

Within a month Gwen was pregnant and both she and Tim were as excited as any couple could be. Gwen had taken maternity leave for the last few remaining months and Tim was going to take paternity leave as soon as the baby was born. “Battle of the bands” had already found a replacement for him and everything was neatly planned out.

Life was going very quickly for Erin and Lee. Kate had grown into a toddler with the help of Laci the nanny. She was instrumental in the help to raise Kate. She also helped with housework and became a companion to Erin and Lee. With their long hours at work they hardly had time to see each other and when they did have time, they were usually doing research for work or were tired from the long hours.

Anthony and Monica were in a rut. After the twins grew into toddlers Anthony became somewhat distracted with work and extracurricular activities such as golfing and dining out with associates. He and Monica were going through a very rough patch. They both had such different interests and found that the only conversations they had were about potty training and bills. Anthony just wasn’t interested. His only interest these days was in his work as executive chef in the five star french restaurant that offered him a world class deal. Anthony had no time for diapers and vet visits. It was only a matter of time before he became a resturanteur, owner of his own fine restaurant. That seemed to be the only thing on his mind.

Tim and Gwen settled in very nicely in their quaint home in Cascade Valley. They spent their first few months all consumed with each other, loving every minute of married life. They both decided that children would wait especially after seeing the chaos in Anthony and Monica’s house since the twins arrived.

Days turned into months and Anthony and Monica found themselves close to having their baby. Anthony had come to his senses about the baby realizing that it would be a blessing rather than an inconvenience. He came to this conclusion after having a long talk with his father whom Monica called for advice as to what to do with her brooding husband. Anthony was still worried but tried to be as supportive as he could to Monica. She had been thrilled since the moment she found out. This gave her life some purpose and even though she was disapointed about not being able to work as an actress she knew this would be the most important job she would ever have.

Erin and Lee had been married for a short time before Erin was pregnant with their first child. Lee wanted to start a family immediately even though he wasn’t a family sim. Erin wasn’t as anxious as Lee but she agreed because she loved him. She had been working dilligently at her job as a soil identifier for the city of Pleasantview in order to get the promotion she had been pining for. The news of her pregnancy had reached her boss and he assured her that her work was valued and this wouldn’t reduce her chances to move up. Erin was relieved to hear this and went home to share the news with Lee.

Finally the long awaited day had come for Tim and Gwen. He had never felt so happy in his life as he did that day when he saw Gwen walk down the aisle to him. He often wondered how he could be so lucky as to find a girl as wonderful as Gwen. He could tell that when they walked down the street together arm in arm that the rest of the world thought that as well, but it didn’t bother him at all. All that mattered was that she was happy and he was the one making her happy.

Anthony and Monica were quite happy the first few months of their marriage. He worked long hours at the restaurant and Monica would always greet him at the door. They would stay up late together and everynight Anthony would cook her something wonderful. Life was pretty good.
