No More Gen 2 Kids!

Today's the day we finally get the last generation baby aged up into a teen! Wendy was a surprise baby and I have been fighting with how to do this. I really couldn't decide if I should have Wendy run away to Neverland as a child or a teen but I've decided I want her to be a teen so that she can be jealous of Tiger Lily and Tink can get jealous of Wendy. So it's time to age our baby girl up! 


As per all of our Disney kids, we really had a laid back birthday. I didn't even really invite anyone and now looking back I should've had her friends there but it'll be okay. Wendy had a blast and wait until you see the pictures! 


We started the day off by getting some really cute pictures of our birthday girl! One of my favorite things about the Disney house is the flowers and in both the spring and summer they look AMAZING! I always love taking pictures in them and I couldn't resist doing pictures with Wendy there before we age her up. 




I love this outfit too! Wendy was a surprise baby and I had to figure out who she was and what she was going to do. With her being a surprised baby I got to have a little fun with her but it was also kind of stressful. I was able to pick from the list of back up characters that I would love to do and then figure out her storyline. With my characters, it isn't as easy as figuring out who is going to be a fun adventure and next big thing. I have to figure out how they work with the previous generation and then how it will continue after them. Will they have kids or not? If they have kids how many and how far can their line go on? I know I really put a lot of thought into it but I want to make the story as cohesive as possible. Plus I want a lot of variety since I'm working in the Disney brand I have Pixar, Star Wars, original Disney, new Disney, Disney shows, and so on. There's just a lot of surplus which is good but can also be challenging trying to figure out the puzzle pieces. Any part of the original story I can fit into the sims makes it so much fun and very true to who they are based off but at the same time, I want to give them a twist. Another thing I did with Wendy was I had two people blocked off if it was going to be a boy I was going to go with something Star Wars and then if we had a female then it was going to be Wendy! Wendy is a classic character and I feel like she would've been a Mickey Mouse baby! So I felt like it would be perfect. Plus I'm trying to branch all of the Disney kids off into their own Sim worlds so we aren't all in Willow Creek. So I'm really excited to go to 'Neverland!' 


Even though we didn't really have a big birthday party I did have a party and invited over some really important people, such as Nina who is Wendy's aunt and they are really close. I even gave Wendy a birthday dress! It was so pretty and I definitely kept the theme after she aged into a teen!




Wendy had a lot of fun talking to everyone and being the center of attention. Even though she is the baby of the family I feel like she gets left out a lot which is why she is so close to Peter's shadow. She has real-life friends too such as Antoine and Michelle. Michelle is Nina's youngest daughter and Antoine is J's son. All three of them are all about the same age and we actually aged Antoine and Michelle up in my latest birthday palooza, which you can see that here. I think Antoine is the closest real Sim Wendy is close too and they aren't related at all. I'm playing with her end story and one of the ideas involves him. 

Anyways the rest of the party is really laid back. Wendy is a classic Disney character and whenever I can I love adding classic details such as the simple birthday and the white cake and just really anything that really screams timeless to me. She had a vanilla/white cake and you can see Mickey in the background of her blowing out her candles. It was also really interesting in watching Dina make this cake. First, that awful glitch where they make tons of cakes has come back and it drove me nuts! But anyways I finally got it all figured out and while Dina was finally making the cake Steve just wasn't having it! Dina was just trying to talk to him and the poor boy just couldn't get away fast enough. 







As I've mentioned a couple times I like to give my Disney characters things that tie them to the characters they are portraying. I tried really hard with this one's outfits I have been getting more in love with CC and using more here and there, and I'm pretty sure most of her outfits have CC on them. If you have any outfits on here you want to know where I got them just comment and I'll tag them or you should be able to find them all here on my board



I think out of all of the Disney kids I think  Wendy looks the most like Dina. She definitely has the same color hair and eyes but she is also really slender like Dina is. There isn't much that looks like Mickey on her. Actually, I don't think many of the Disney kids have any of his features. Mickey has a lot of boy like features and a big nose and ears. I feel like his kids should have inherited some of them but so far Maleficent has his dark hair and that's about it. I guess the boys have some of his boyish features. However, Steve has definitely inherited Mickey's family-oriented and goofy traits.
