02-Chapter 1 - And Baby Makes Three
I stared at that tiny life held in my wife’s arms … and I felt so many emotions that I was overcome! There, in Shenene’s arms … it seemed … was my entire family rolled into one little bundle of joy!
I didn’t want my daughter to see tears in her old man’s eyes, so I immediately set out to try to make her smile.
I know sim doctors say that a baby won’t start smiling or laughing until day 2 … but little Heliumina broke out into this amazing smile, and I melted into a pile of goo on the floor.
Oh, my precious one. I hope you will always know how very much we love you. You’ve brought something wonderful to our lives, and with your arrival, I feel the void in my heart filling in a little bit more.
Ooooh! She turned out to be soooo beautiful
She’s going to be a knock-out

Oh Wow. Well done. I love the name too! And thank you, thank you. So glad I didn’t have to wait for toddler pictures. Now…. I wonder what she’s like. Very cool with the genetics BTW…

She is beautiful! Congratulations on getting the ears passed on–none of my founders kids got his ears! I can’t wait to see what she looks like as a child.

Oh, how precious are baby girls. I know how Hydro feels about not wanting his baby to grow up ::wipes tears from own eyes::
Heliumina is a beautiful toddler.
Here’s to the new Elemental and many more

Bundle of helium…hehe. Quick question…did she transition into that hair? Because I love it! Great update! She is the cutest little girl, can’t wait to see how she grows up.

Great update! Heliumina is absolutely adorable and that’s awesome that Hydro’s ancestor’s genetics are already showing up.
(I was wondering the same thing about the hair, Kristen, but you can see the confetti is still falling, so I’m guessing she transitioned into it? Dunno how though - I thought all toddlers transitioned into that one haircut for girls.)

Waiting for the last couple of months to read this was so worth it. The way you tell this legecy captures all the feelings they have that I can sense too.
Heliumina is absolutely gorgeous! It’s amazing she has inheirited her Elemental descendants genes! She is blessed to have Hydro for her father.

Aw… Little Heliumina Elemental… So cute!!! I love the pic of when Hydrogen’s upset that the baby might read his diary. *lol*
